'God Shows Up'
Robert Massimi. It seems the heatwave is too much for theaters; thinking I was reviewing I Spy A Spy, I ended up at The Actors Temple instead to see God Shows Up because the St. Clemente Theater had no air conditioning and had to cancel the show.

Ending a Conversation
Characters: Tusra and Anastra. Tusra and Anastra stood outside the hall. Its large wooden doors with intricate patterns carved into it towered over Tusra. He began to feel uneasy as he knew what was going to happen. Looking over to his Princess, he noted that she didn’t share the same feelings as him, did she not know the situation in which they have been called for? No of course not, she didn’t listen. Anastra never listens.

Taylor Swift Pulls Off Catwoman's Creepiest Look in 'Cats' Trailer: Why She's Purrrfect for the 'Batman' Movie
There are two things that the internet loves above all else: cats and weird stuff that can be turned into memes. The new trailer for the Cats movie delivers both, so it’s inevitable that its creepy kitty characters will live on in internet infamy, no matter how the movie based on the Broadway show does at the box office. And if it does bomb, at least it can serve as Taylor Swift’s audition for the new Batman movie starring Robert Pattinson. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Catwoman will be one of the villains in the latest reboot of the Dark Knight film franchise.

'The Penal Colony'
Robert Massimi. The Penal Colony is an interpretation of Kafka's The Penal Colony. From Kafka, it is a novella about three men; the traveler, the soldier, and the condemned man set to be executed. In the book, the traveler is invited to witness the execution of a soldier who disobeys his superior. Out of politeness, the traveler agrees to come along to a small valley that is closed off on both sides. With only the three present for the execution, the soldier goes through the apparatus that will eventually kill the man in question. It is cold and calculating how the soldier goes about it, almost relishing the other man's death.

Criminal Minds Great Episodes
Every season has at least one episode that is just brilliant! Like more brilliant than any other episode in the season. Which for some seasons is quite difficult. The reason it is not called the best episodes is due to the fact I have a similar list published already called "Criminal Minds Most Memorable Epsiodes" so go give that a read. It would be too similar and for that I have picked different episodes from each season to be more diverse. This is a list, starting at season 1 going all the way to season 14 of a truly great episode in each season.

'The Girl With The Red Hair'
Robert Massimi. From the time you enter the Alchemical Theater, you know you are in for a bumpy, rough ride; so hold on and enjoy. Set with an edgy feel (track lighting and open ducks on ceiling), music plays before the show, Casey Hartnett (Hayley Jones) prepares for the show before us; she would turn in a stellar performance, one to remember for a long time.

MCU Theory: 'Spider-Man: Far From Home's' Chameleon is Getting a Skrull Backstory?
Gotta give Spider-Man: Far From Home a lot of credit, they upped the Marvel mid and post-credit scenes game up, giving fans some major double takes. You'd be forgiven if you had to turn to your friend beside you to make sure that what you just saw actually happened.

The Theatre of the Absurd Might Not Be that Absurd After All. Correct Me if I'm Wrong
What is the theatre of the absurd? In its essence, the movement boils down to few crucial aspects. Lack of plot and temporal structure, parts of the play that make sense only to highlight the nonsensical rest and breakdown of what we could call the “glue of drama”—communication. In other words, absurdist plays challenge both the rules and function of Classical Greek drama, its unity of time, space, and action (known as Aristotelian unities) as well as its community building function. Importantly, the theatre of the absurd frees itself from symbolic framework such as the need of a resolution, an ending that provides the spectator with emotional catharsis. Samuel Beckett’s play Waiting for Godot is pivotal in that sense—it demonstrates the problematic nature of concentrating on the play’s end, the wait for the outcome of things, to the extent that all the preceding parts of a play that lead to it are pointless.

The Reality Is
I must admit, right out of the gate, that I am not a fan of reality television. That is not to say it has no merit, or even that all reality television is terrible—though a lot of it is—it is just that, as an aspiring writer, looking at it from a purely selfish point of view, it is lazy television. When I say ‘reality television’, I am not referring to talent shows.
