An editor’s defense of Disney

An editor’s defense of Disney

There are many recognizable things in The Signal’s basement lair. There are the pictures on the walls of people who are lost in the annals of Signal history (translation — we have no clue who they are), there’s messages from past editors telling us to get out while we still can and there’s more newspapers [...]

Modern it’s not, but ‘Millie’ is ‘thoroughly’ fun

Modern it’s not, but ‘Millie’ is ‘thoroughly’ fun

The music, mannerisms and phraseology floating through the Kendall Hall Main Stage Theatre were anything but “thoroughly modern” during TCNJ Musical Theatre’s production of “Thoroughly Modern Millie.” The show, which played from April 6 to April 10, was originally a movie released in 1967 starring the great Julie Andrews. It was soon turned into a [...]

Reflections on Panic!’s past and present

Reflections on Panic!’s past and present

I wish I could say the album I was most excited for this year was “The King of Limbs” or something else equally impressive. And while I was excited for the elusive Radiohead to give us something more, I have to admit that I was much more excited for another album that came out less [...]

Instant news spells prolonged paranoia

Instant news spells prolonged paranoia

The world is clearly ending. Beginning in 2005, the natural disasters in the world seem to be building — an erecter set of doom, if you will.
First, there was Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which is one of, if not the, worst natural disaster in U.S. history. Death count: 1,836. Then there is a large earthquake [...]

Red Sox and Yankees will fight to be league’s best

Some sports analysts are saying that the Boston Red Sox are the new team to beat in Major League Baseball. With the additions of Carl Crawford (arguably one of the best and fastest outfielders in the league) and all-star first baseman Adrian Gonzalez (who will ease Kevin Youkilis’ transition to third) their lineup is definitely [...]

The new British (TV) invasion is here

What is it about a British accent that not only makes me feel smarter when I watch TV, but also makes me laugh harder at jokes? I’m not sure, but it’s definitely the case.
Over the years, I’ve gotten a little frustrated with American TV (though there are still some gems like “Chuck,” “30 Rock,” “Eureka,” [...]

“Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides”

Is a fourth “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie necessary? I say yes. Why? Because as far as I can tell, this
one is just about Jack Sparrow — a prequel if you will. No sob story about Will and Elizabeth, just the adventures of the cantankerous Captain. He [...]

‘Tangled’ enchants

The fact that Walt Disney Studios has announced that it will no longer be making fairy tales or musicals in the foreseeable future made “Tangled” all the more bittersweet.
The film itself was excellent. Powered by a funny, heart-warming plot, “Tangled” features exceptional voice work by Mandy Moore and Zach Levi, cutting edge CGI and old-world [...]

Yankees show Jeter little respect; The captain is down for now, but not out

I’m really pissed off at Hal Steinbrenner. Who does he think he is? Well, one thing’s for sure: he is definitely not his father.
Some may say that is a good thing, as the late New York Yankees owner was one part ruthless and one part surprisingly sentimental. But if George isn’t rolling in his grave [...]

Pottheads rejoice: Seventh stays true

Pottheads rejoice: Seventh stays true

It’s hard to watch a movie when the theater is stuffed with extraordinarily enthusiastic “Pottheads” and actually be objective about it (especially when you’re a Potthead yourself), but I tried my best when I saw
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.”
It was a pretty fantastic movie. The pacing didn’t falter, even though Harry, Ron [...]
