FFor years now, naysayers have proclaimed that true rock legends are a dying breed.

Critics refuse to put their faith in the modern rock genre and constantly beat and badger the quality—or lack thereof—of today’s music. What is needed is a good old-fashioned revival; a movement to re-fuse the rock with the roll. And it’s happening—especially with young musicians like Jonathan Tyler and his band the Northern Lights. Rock is making a come back, and a kind of retrolution of old sounds is being dusted off and redressed.

Transplanted from the Deep South of Alabama, Jonathan Tyler made a move to Dallas when he was barely of legal driving age. Before leaving his home-state, Tyler taught himself how to pick an axe by flipping his way through Slash’s guitar lesson book. He also vigorously studied the methods of other American guitar legends such as Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jimi Hendrix.

So what does a Bama-native musician do when he arrives in Big-D? Hooks up with three other young-bloods and proceeds to merge Southern rock with Texas roll. However, you can have all the talent in the world but still lack something that drives you towards success. In the case of Tyler and his bandmates (guitarist Brandon Pinckard, drummer Jordan Cain and bassist Nick Jay), it was a lack of life experience. With all four of them under the age of 21,

none of them had truly experienced anything in life that fuels musicians and songwriters with material.

“It was just a bunch suburban middle-class kids trying really hard, but not having any substance because we didn’t have any problems yet. I didn’t have anything to write about,” says Tyler, now 24.

The group kept at it until they were about 20, until they discovered alcohol and drugs; this caused a movement that led to splitting up the band. A few years of personal struggle in each of their lives had gone by, and Tyler had a wake-up call. He lost a close friend to a drug overdose.

Having gone through some personal hardship, the band got back together; only this time around, they had eye-opening experiences under their belts to channel into powerful lyrics and melodies. The band knocked out their independent debut album Hot Trottin’ in only five days.

The Lone Star state has taken quite a liking to Brian Burke. With his charm and talent, Burke’s Texas fanbase has surged. Contemporary in his sound, Burke is coming to Hurricane Harry’s on October 5th. Joining Burke is a diversity of musicians whose styles range from hard rock to indie to country, the Dustin Perkins Band.

Dipping into the indie country scene, Burke waded through Texas country searching for his sound. Raised on the music of George Strait and Billy Joel, Burke showed a desire to be a musician at a very young age. High school was a time of musical growth for Burke. He developed his skill set by playing acoustic shows in makeshift bands at school dances. With positive feedback from his pals, Burke put his nose to the grindstone. He says, “I always liked people who were doing something new and fresh. Those are the people who have great careers, in my opinion. You can only last so long doing the same thing as everyone else.” Burke never colored inside the genre lines.

With uniqueness in mind, Burke began the arduous journey of musical success. In July of 2009, things were looking up the Brian Burke Band. He released his first EP then toured in September. Their first full-length album, Unraveled, displayed a variety of musical styles and vocal abilities. A concoction of multiple genres, Burke has been called the “musical lovechild of Keith Urban and John Mayer.” But Burke is still Burke, and it is his talent that earned him the “Breakout Artist of the Year” award for texasmusicworld.com. For Burke, it’s all about the music.

David Ramirez @ Grand Stafford Theater

RRamirez personifies a modern rambling man in every sense of the phrase. From heartache and personal struggle, to countless nights on the road, to battles with faith and fighting to establish a name for himself, Ramirez embodies the traits made famous by American folk legends such as Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson. The lyrics of his song, “Wandering Man”, for example, speak of a man who is constantly in a fight with people who are trying to tie him down, and all his soul wants to do is drift around. Contrary to “Wandering Man”, his song “Stick Around”, tells the story of a man who keeps running the road in search of someone who would finally ask him to settle down and stay a while.

Being the vagabond that he is, Ramirez considers the road to be his one true home. That being said, his mail has to go somewhere, so he has it sent to his stationary home in Austin.

Ramirez’ interest in music developed as a teenager in Houston, where he spent a lot of time swapping songs with his friends. He made a move to Nashville where he planned to make a name for himself and his music. He faced a lot of difficulty, as most artists do when they are at that point in their young careers. Since then, Ramirez has released several EPs and just recently released his second full-length album, Apologies. The new album has a slightly tweaked change of perception from his previous recordings.

“There’s less to do with heartache and a lot more to do with personal struggles and hope. I see a lot of hope in these songs,” Ramirez, 29, says. “I’ve been working on these and many other songs for a couple years but I didn’t know what I wanted this album to say until right before going into the studio. Once I finished ‘An Introduction’, I knew this was going to be a very personal album.”

The album garnered critical accolades, with Paste magazine calling Ramirez “The best damn songwriter you don’t know yet.”

Ramirez is not out trying to find a path to luxury, and he is not striving for some un-entitled fulfillment. All he needs is a guitar and lyrics to tell his stories, the true stories of conflict and approval, stories of being wanderlust and yet lusting to settle and find contentment.

Grand Stafford Theater will be hosting an album release show for David Ramirez on October 5 where he will perform with Seryn, Sean Bruce and Blue Bear. For tickets, visit grandstaffordtheater.com.

Listen weekdays 3-7pm

The Brazos Valley Symphony brings you the romance of idyllic Europe in a tonal performance that will transport your imagination out of C-Stat and across the Atlantic. The opener for the 31st season of the Symphony – European Romance – calls upon the harmony of musical savants such as Gioachino Rossini, Camille Saint-Saëns, and Johannes Brahms. Hosted in Rudder Theatre on October 7th from 5:00pm to 7:00pm, the Symphony is summoning the magic of Europe in Texas.

The Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1981 after two community music organizations merged. Their music director, the passionate Marcelo Bussiki (a native of Brazil), has led the orchestra of talented musicians since 1996 and is beginning his 16th season with the symphony. Every season, the Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra performs two children’s concerts, a free outdoor concert, and five classical subscription concerts. The duty of this non-profit organization is to foster a symphony of the highest artistic standards while upholding the musical arts as a staple of cultural and educational purposes in the Brazos Valley.

The five concerts of this season, as planed by Bussiki, are crafted to take audience members on a journey through time and across the world, expanding appreciation for cultures through the mystery, romance, and passion of music. For this concert, attendees will be taken on a tour of the most highly acclaimed European composers without so much as having to leave the city.

Beginning with a pop like a champagne cork, European Romance commences with Gioachino Rossini’s playful overture from The Barber of Seville – opera’s exemplary comedy. The sparkling overture has pleased the ears of audiences since it was first introduced in Rome in 1816. One of the most recognizable and popular masterpieces, it is still a favorite of modern audiences 200 hundred years later.

After the Symphony concludes Rossini’s tour de force, the orchestra drifta into Camille Saint-Saëns’ three-movement concerto accompanied by accomplished and acclaimed pianist Inon Barnatan. Barnatan has been described as “a true poet of the keyboard” by London’s Evening Standard and “a player of uncommon sensitivity” by The New Yorker. The piece floats from a dreamy piano solo characteristic of a Bach fantastia into an allegro in E-flat major –smartly crafted and light-hearted in sound – then finally lands in the third and final movement which ceases in a flurry of G minor arpeggios.

Rounding out the evening is Johannes Brahms’ Symphony No. 4. The romance of the piece and the richness of its allusions may hypnotize the audience. Consisting of four movements at various paces, Brahms’ work is both haunting and reminiscent of a lullaby, drawing emotional responses from anyone who hears the mesmerizing sounds of strings and woodwinds or the fairy-like musings of the flutes and clarinets. However it may happen, The Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra wants the music to move you.

Tickets can be purchased online or via the MSC Box Office. They cost $34 for adults and $12 for students. For more information on upcoming symphony concerts, tickets, or ways to donate, visit the Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra’s website at bvso.org

TTexas country’s long-time friend, Aaron Watson, has steadily found fame in every nook and cranny of the Lone Star state. While his CD release tour is taking him as far as Switzerland and Italy, Watson is coming to Hurricane Harry’s on October 10th to celebrate the release of his new album, Real Good Time. Joined by the “honest and personal” lyricist William Clark Green, Watson’s got his boot-stompin’ sound polished and ready for Aggieland.

The wide open spaces of Texas country have always provided artists a way to forge their own styles and sounds. Wary of the propensity to stay in a comfort zone, Watson says, “My biggest fear when I record an album is that it’s the same all the way through.” Looking to pitch a few curve balls, Watson has been known to really knock it out of the park. In fact, before music, Watson’s first love was baseball. But, after a serious injury, Watson had to give it up. Though his future as a baseball player had disappeared, Watson’s true calling was just around the corner.

Watson’s love of music was partially spurred by his father. Marinating in his father’s collection of records—of artists like Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, and Waylon Jennings combined with the Beach Boys and the Beatles—

Watson had an aural kaleidoscope of inspiration at a young age. Another component of Watson’s affair with music began when he had the privilege to see Garth Brooks perform. From that point on, the seed was

planted and grew.

Upon entering college at Abilene Christian, Watson enrolled in a beginning guitar class at. Influenced and encouraged by his professors, Watson’s love for music flourished. He may have started off slow, but by the time Watson’s third album rolled around, enough people had gravitated to his music to solidify his career. Years later, Watson is still doing his thing. Down to earth and hard worker, he is now a fixture of the Texas

music scene, venturing to Europe to take the Texas sound to a whole new fanbase.

First Friday @ Downtown Bryan

Fby eSzter trufan

Forget TGIF; this Friday it’s TGIFF (Thank God it’s First Friday)! Every first Friday in Downtown Bryan, the community floods the streets of Historic Downtown Bryan to celebrate local arts, to wine and dine, and to hear music both on the streets and inside venues throughout town.

This Friday, plan to have dinner in one of the local restaurants, to see a concert in the newly renovated Grand Stafford Theater, or to have a beer in the Village’s alleyway while enjoying live music. All shops and restaurants in Downtown Bryan will be open and trying to lure you in with their wares.

Maroon Weekly will also be in attendance, with a fun and free outdoor photobooth set up in front of our Downtown Bryan headquarters (next to the Village Cafe). All photos will be posted on our Facebook page for you to tag yourselves and download.

With so much to see and so much to do, your feet may need a rest. For a small fee ($20 for 4 people), a horse-drawn carriage will take you on a tour of downtown. You’ll get to hear about the town’s colorful history from a local as you peacefully roll through the streets.

And for the more family-oriented experience (or for those who are kids at heart), stop by Sale Park after sundown where you can usually watch an animated feature outside in the grass, away from the hustle and bustle.

One staple of First Fridays is music. There will be live music playing on almost every street corner to soundtrack your evening’s escapades. Music will be playing at several venues across Downtown Bryan, so before you commit to just one band, have some ice cream and walk around for a bit. You may be surprised where the evening takes you. T

here are a few slightly unconventional venues for live music: Burr’s Unfinished Furniture Store and the Daniel Stark Injury Lawyers office may surprise you. If you like music with your dinner, or dinner with your music, LaSalle Cafe also provides live entertainment, and Caffé Capri has a performance outside, while you’re waiting in line for a coveted table.

But if you’re looking for the night’s “grandest” performance, head over to the aforementioned Grand Stafford Theater and listen to David Ramirez with the Dirty Guv’nahs and Blue Bear in concert. The venue makes a point to bring in big talent when possible.

TThe Wells Project is a student organization at Texas A&M that raises awareness and funds for the drilling of clean water wells. The organization is partnering with Living Water International to help spread the importance of providing clean water through Jesus Christ’s name. With over 783 million people lacking clean water, Texas A&M prides themselves on making a difference in countries that lack the proper resources to keep wells clean.

The organization’s annual 10 Days campaign will kick off on October 10th and will continue until Friday, October 19th. Participants in the campaign are asked to go without all beverages except water during the 10 day period of time.

The money saved during the 10 days will be donated to fund clean water wells in Rwanda. The Aggies were able to raise $20,000 last year and have led the nation in funding, raising over $80,000 total.

Will Whitehill, president of The Wells Project, said they are very excited to see what God will be providing for them. There will be students from 20 chapters and 10 different states who will be participating in 10 Days.

To raise awareness of this issue, members will be promoting on campus, giving presentations to local churches, schools and businesses. There will be a live concert featuring Shane & Shane Friday, October 15th.

The concert will ensure that every dollar is spent on helping build clean wells. For more information, visit 10days.cc.

Award Winning Wines Made in College Station, Texas

Join us for a night out.Enjoy us for

a night in.

A game growing in popularity that you’ve probably come across while tailgating is picking up a lot of steam all over the state. Although you might not know the game by the name Cornhole, that doesn’t mean that you haven’t come across some variation of it. This Saturday at 12pm Rockies Night Club is hosting a double elimination tournament for the Austin/Bryan/College Station region.

Cornhole is a game similar to washers, as it’s all about trying to toss something (corn bags in this instance) into a hole or as close as possible. Scoring is pretty simple: If you make a bag in the hole, you get 3 points; if you get one on the board, you get 1 point; and you play until one side gets 21. This is both a singles and doubles sport (the tournament is for doubles). Is the game sounding a lot more familiar now?

A night club like Rockies probably seems like an odd place to host a tournament like this, but it’s actually to your benefit. In addition to being convenient geographically, Rockies is convenient because you can celebrate (or weep, because some of these guys are pros) directly after at the bar.

Keep in mind, this is a serious tournament. It’s put on by the Texas Cornhole League. So if you haven’t already been practicing, it’s probably all you should be doing between now and Saturday. If nothing else, you can check out the tournament and see if cornhole is something that you want to do competitively in the future or to have at your next tailgate.

IImani Founder Jenny Jenkins

by ChrIS zebo

Imani Tumaini Upendo, which means faith, hope, love in Swahili, is a non-profit organization headquartered in Downtown Bryan that partners with organizations to help families develop a better future in developing Africa. Started in April 2011, Imani(shortened), helps organizations abroad advocate their mission and to continue to fundraise on the state side for them. It has now grown into a local force in overseas philanthropy, taking annual mission teams to partner locations, sending interns to work with them, assisting in child sponsorships, producing annual fundraisers, and Imani will soon be starting a women's empowerment program in Kenya in May 2013.

The organization is hosting M.O.V.E., an event aimed at generating awareness about issues in undeserved communities in Africa. M.O.V.E. will be hosted at the Palace in Downtown Bryan ($5 in advance, $10 at the door, 7pm-11pm) on Friday, October 5 and will feature Jimmy Needham, artist of the night and a speaker. Tickets can be purchased on the organization's website at imani-africa.org/upcoming-projects.

We caught up with Imani founder Jenny Jenkins to learn more about the organization and M.O.V.E.

MW: Imani supports two ministries: Real4Christ in Mombasa, Kenya and The Cries of a Child in Bukeye, Burundi. What do the ministries provide to the underprivileged people living in the regions served?

Jenkins: Real4Christ was established in 2007 and has two different locations in Mombasa, Kenya. They have built two schools and two clinics. They provide education for over 300 kids in Mombasa, as well as provide free medical assistance to the children and the families in these two areas. Along with medicine and education, they provide two healthy meals for the kids per day and give them a very good education compared to the education the government provides.

They also have a men’s ministry to teach men how to do carpentry and welding, and then Imani will develop the women’s ministry alongside their men’s ministry in May. They also have a water ministry and dig boreholes to bring clean water into different villages, and in the end they build churches on these properties.

The most important thing they do is share the word of Christ to the Kenyans in these villages. Chris and Lisa Moore are the

founders and everyday dedicate their lives to these families to share God’s love with them.

The Cries of a Child looks a little different but is somewhat similar. Isai and Samantha Torres founded The Cries of A Child in 2008 and have 5 acres of land in Bukeye, Burundi where they have built two children homes and take care of 16 orphans. In the future, they plan to build two more homes and care for 32 orphans.

Along with being an orphanage, they are building a clinic this year and will have medical care for the village of Bukeye.

They also are building a community room and will teach them about health, sanitation, farming, work skills, etc. On their land that they call Jeremiah 29:11, they take care of these children and make sure that they have clothes, food and—more importantly—love. Isai and Samantha pour the love of Christ into these kids and the ‘mamas’ of each house. They have an amazing and beautiful ministry and I cannot wait to see what happens in the future!

MW: Imani is hosting M.O.V.E., an outreach and awareness event for the public. How will you reach out to people attending and what do you hope they take away?

Jenkins: M.O.V.E stands for MOTIVATE others, seek OPPORTUNITY for change, use your VOICE for the Lord, and EXPERIENCE God's grace. This year we will be having Jimmy Needham come and play as well as be our speaker for the event. Our hope is that people will be moved and want to make a change in this world by stepping out of their comfort zones and doing something a little different.

Imani will be sharing its vision at the event and hope that when people leave they want to become part of the movement that Imani is creating. We hope that they want to be a part of a mission team, be an intern, sponsor a child, become a monthly donor, or just volunteer locally from time to time. We want people to realize that there is more to this life then satisfying ourselves or living in this “American Society bubble,” to realize there is a world out there suffering that needs our help and 1 person has the capability of doing that.

PLAY10.3.12 | maroonweekly.com | pg 19

$40 a month might seem little to sponsor a child, or donating $20 to Imani per month might seem like nothing, but that “little” donation is creating a lot of change, and without those “little” donations, lives could not be changed.

We want people to realize that they are capable of doing more and to stretch themselves a little. And, overall, we want to represent Christ in all that we do; we want people to leave the event feeling the love of God warming their heart because that is what we are all about, Faith-Hope-Love through Christ.

MW: How often and for how long does Imani do missions trips?

Jenkins: Imani does mission trips every year mainly between the months of May-August but will be adding trips in December coming in 2013. Every mission trip is 2 weeks long. As far as internships go, the fall and spring internships are 4 months long and the summer internships are 3 months long. Internships are offered both in our partner locations and in Bryan, TX.

MW: You said upon returning to the US after a mission, “They have some of the most difficult lives I’ve ever witnessed—carrying gallons of water on their heads for miles, sleeping on dirt floors in mud huts; yet they make life feel so simple. While we, on the other hand, as Americans, make our easy lives seem so incredibly difficult.” How has your perspective changed about our lifestyle in the US when comparing it against other communities struggling for basic necessities?

Jenkins: This is a very good question. I think each time I go back—and I have been traveling back and forth since 2009—my perspective shifts a little more and/or I learn something new about the area and myself. Let me put it this way: I always get asked, “Why Africa and why not here in your own backyard?”

My answer is this: There is need everywhere, and if you have a roof over your head, you are blessed. Now I am not saying it is any easier than it is over there, but we are blessed with simple sanitation, healthcare systems, food pantries, common knowledge on diseases, and in most places there is someone nearby that can help us out when we are most in need.

There, they are used to seeing death everyday, so when they get a simple headache they do not know if that means they have a new “disease” or if it is just a headache. I know it is hard to grasp, but some of the women I worked with this summer went a good couple of days without food until they could afford a bag of beans for 10 schillings, which is about 5 cents in USD. It is a poor that you just do not witness here.

So my perspective of life when I come back to America is to breath. I am always going 100-miles-per-minute, but my friends in Africa remind me that life is too short to rush through it. So, everyday I remember to enjoy the sunshine or the breeze on my face a little more. It is the little things in life that us Americans seem to overlook sometimes, and as far as my lifestyle, year after year it grows a little simpler.

I take shorter showers, eat all my food, and donate my clothes—little things. I still live a typical American life; I am just more cautious for my blessings and make sure I thank God everyday for the roof over my head and clean water.

MW: If someone wants to get involved with Imani, in

what ways can they contribute and

participate?

Jenkins: Imani loves volunteers! If anyone wants to get involved with Imani, they can volunteer locally, they can go on a mission trip, or they can be an intern abroad or locally, as well.

They can sponsor a child or become a monthly donor, because that is always needed for Imani to continue to grow. They can also become part of the rafiki crew, which is bringing Imani to your school campus (college or high school), church, or any other groups. Overall, they can be a simple advocate for Imani everywhere they go as well!

Imani will continue to M.O.V.E each year, so be looking for that every October from now on. Imani has many plans for the future, like growing the number of mission teams we can send out each year and hopefully on a quarterly basis.

We also hope to grow our internship opportunities by hopefully adding a new partner in the future.

Brazos Valley Museum of Natural

History Presents Buffalo Stampede

by Ike ntube

FFor all of the seasoned runners out there, the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History is hosting The Buffalo Stampede, a USATF certified and timed (via chip) half marathon this Saturday. And for those who might wish to run a 5k, there is one of those at the event, too.

“The Half-Marathon course is gently rolling, scenic, relatively flat, fast, and takes you through open country and past neighborhoods and parks. It has a downhill 2-mile finish and offers runners a great chance for a personal record and a tune-up for marathons,” according the race’s website. In addition, there are water stops, places to use the restroom, and music provided by an on-site DJ. T-shirts for the event are copies of a Benjamin Knox painting and will be available at the race.

As a participant in the race, you get free admission to Boonville Days. Boonville Days is a living history fair with a mixture of demonstrations, re-enactments, art, and music. This additional event will be held inside and outside of the museum.

If a fair isn’t your cup of tea after the race, then fill your cup with something else at the after race party offered with your registration. The party includes snacks and thirst quenchers along with some free beer.

There are trophies and medals for winners of age divisions and cash prizes for the male and female overall winners. The winners also get to pose with the race’s celebrity starter, former Aggie and Green Bay Packer, Terrance Murphy. The race is an all-ages event and will be occurring rain or shine.

It is suggested that you register early and pick up your packet before race day, but you can still show up early and sign up.

For more information on the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History or the Buffalo Stampede, visit brazosvalleymuseum.org.

Originating as a snack for ranch hands on the plains of the Old West, the fried pie tradition lives on in College Station at Nana’s Fried Pies.

Upon walking into the shop, the atmosphere was nicer than I expected for a restaurant located in a gas station strip center. The dining room and counter were modern and clean. The local historic photographs and Texas memorabilia on the wall add an element of warmth to make the place feel homey like a pie shop called “Nana’s” should.

The best part of the trip to Nana’s came right after we ordered our pies and headed over to the soda fountain. In addition to the standard Coke and Diet Coke, the soda fountain featured soda flavors from Dublin Bottling Works like Cherry Limeade and Black Cherry, all made with real Imperial sugar. We had fun sampling several different sodas as we ate.

When the pies arrived, they were golden brown and looked freshly made. They looked less greasy than most fried foods and the flaky crust looked scrumptious. Before I could take a bite, I had to shoot a photo, and I must say the pies are a little delicate, as one didn’t stand up to being posed. The broken pie looked and smelled very tempting, so I finished the shoot very quickly with the surviving pies.

The Brisket Pie made an awesome first impression. The crust tasted as good as it looked and the sweet barbeque sauce and chopped brisket were a perfect filling. I ate it with silverware on a plate and it stayed together okay, but think it might be hard to eat out of a bag on the go because there was a lot of sauce.

A better option for eating on the go would be the Southwest Chicken Pie, which comes stuffed with diced chicken, peppers, onions, corn, black beans and chipotle sauce. The ingredients in the Southwest Chicken are chunkier and less likely to seep through the crust, making it safer to eat without a plate and silverware. However, the pie could possible use just a little more sauce or a cup of sauce to dip it in. I liked it, but will order extra sauce next time. (Note: I love sauces more than most. So the sauce could be just right for normal folks.)

On our next trip to Nana’s, we’re looking forward to trying the Dessert Fried Pies and Breakfast Fried Pies (served all day). They also sell traditional round pies by the slice, baked fresh or take & bake.

For a quick bite of something different for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, head over to Nana’s Fried Pies.

SSomething is off about Looper’s sense of timing—which is exactly as it should be. Set in Kansas in the year 2044, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is cast as a young Bruce Willis by way of prosthetics and studied growling. The film pits the two hit men against each other; Gordon-Levitt wants to kill his older self (sent back in time to be executed by himself as per future hit-man tradition) in order to live out his days with a nice severance package from the mob that hired him, knowing that he’s destined to eventually wind up on the other side of that showdown.

And Willis wants to prevent his retirement by killing the child that’s bound to grow up to take over the future mobs and fire all the time-travel hit-men. So far so good? Confused at all?

Don’t worry. Looper takes its time in the first act setting up everything about this sci-fi action universe. There’s even a practice run with Paul Dano, who is too stunned by the

sight of his future self to carry out the job. The momentum is insane. There aren’t really scenes in the first act so much as quick impressions of events or set-ups. It’s all montage, a bunch of people moving this direction and that, all while Gordon-Levitt narrates. It sounds hectic, but in the moment, there are only a couple glaring mistakes with Looper’s time-travel, and they’re pretty incidental. Then come some even faster montages, then a slower middle, and at the end, slow-motion literally takes over. Leave it to a film about time to have such a fun way with it.

Directed by Rian Johnson, who should be a household name for his teen-noir Brick and his expressionistic work on Breaking Bad, Looper is an unsurprisingly splashy film. Like few directors anymore, Johnson is a real image-maker. Looper is practically a comic, a parade of splashy, symbolic moments captured in time, like a hoverbike emerging from a cloud of smoke without its rider or a close-up of blood on

bars of silver. Johnson shakes hands with Heat, Minority Report, and Tarantino, but his most vital influence is Sergio Leone, whose westerns found savagery compelling and chilling in equal measure.

No wonder. Violence is the secret theme coursing through Looper’s blood. It’s almost more a western than a sci-fi film, obsessed with the almighty gun-duel. In an opening montage, a street vendor unleashes a blaze of glory on a robber right in the middle of the street. Later, a mournful score promotes skepticism of a captivating orgy of bullets. Murder is the endgame of both heroes. The cycle of violence is what Looper’s all about; history doomed to repeat itself. Get it?

Sci-fi | R |

LOOK10.3.12 | maroonweekly.com | pg 25

1 Hotel Transylvania 1/2

If I’ve learned anything from the box office the past few years, it’s that kids entertainment is where the money’s at. Parents will see anything. Word to the wise: Stick with ParaNorman and Frankenweenie.

2 Looper Time-travel gem Looper has so much fun with narrative and mashing up sci-fi, western, and crime thriller genres. One thing’s for sure: It’s worth the ticket price. Maybe twice.

3 End of Watch 1/2

Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena play rookie cops who suddenly become cartel targets in this Cops-style found-footage flick. Unfortunately, even the movie feels rookie-made, but at least it has Anna Kendrick.

4 Trouble with the Curve Well, talking to a chair isn’t the most embarrassing thing Clint Eastwood’s done this month. The legendary star turned revisionist director has earned some leeway, but it’s never too late to retire.

5 House at the end of the Street 1/2

Brace yourself: It’s Halloween season, heralded by another parade of jump scares. At least this one stars an actress instead of a starlet. Jennifer Lawrence makes boring horror slightly less boring horror. That’s talent!

6 Pitch Perfect Okay, so it’s no Bring It On, but we all have our weaknesses. Turns out Anna Kendrick getting in a cappella street battles over bad ‘90s pop is one of mine.

7 Finding Nemo 3D One of Pixar’s most enormous pictures, a funny,

scary, sad, mysterious, heart-warming adventure across the Australian coast. But “Partysaurus Rex,” the delightful new Pixar short, might be worth the ticket price on its own

8 Resident Evil: Retribution

Like they always say, fifth time’s the charm! But seriously, Paul W.S. Anderson’s latest entry in the video game movie franchise is now even more video game-y, with extravagant maps and slo-mo 3D.

9 The Master Paul Thomas Anderson’s new movie hasn’t reached beyond a surprise 70mm screening in Austin, but after There Will Be Blood, anticipation for the new film is off the charts. Full review next week.

10 Won’t Back Down 1/2

Is it already time for another Stand and Deliver? These Dangerous Minds clones aren’t about helping children so much as WASP back-patting. “I have to reach these kids!”

11 Dredd 1/2

At last, Judge Dredd has the film adaptation it deserves: a pulpy B-flick with a dynamite cast: Karl Urban as the titular, postapocalyptic executioner flanked by Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby. Stallone who?

12 The Possession A girl buys an antique box without checking inside for ancient Jewish demons first, and now her parents must fight the curse.

13 The Perks of Being a Wallflower

A freshman outcast falls in with two seniors in Stephen Chbosky’s adaptation of his own novel. It’s pretty, it’s witty, it’s gay. But mostly it’s a chance to see Emma Watson spread her wings post-Hermione.

14 Lawless I’m still wincing from the part in Guy Pearce’s hair. John Hillcoat corrals his baroque gangster saga like a tired farmer more than an artist, but Tom Hardy lights up the screen.

15 Arbitrage 1/2

A recycled finance procedural about a Bernie Madoff type redeemed—barely—by its acting. I wonder how scummy Richard Gere could have been if he weren’t always artfully framed against light refracting through glass.

16 The Dark Knight Rises 1/2

Nolan’s not a director. He’s a tinker: Mascot characterizations, Rube Goldberg emotions, lifeless cityscapes, conveyor-belt music, bumper-sticker politics, and guillotine editing welded into a steel hunk. I’ve never rooted harder for the bad guys.

17 ParaNorman A little boy sees dead people in this spectacular, spooky, over-stuffed gem, paving the way for more horror-comedy cartoons. Weird is the new normal, gray is the new black, and Laika is the new Pixar.

18 The Bourne Legacy You have to give them some credit: Instead of a Spiderman-style reboot with the same old origin story, Bourne spun off Jeremy Renner into a new franchise. It’s hectic absurdity, but it could be worse.

19 The Odd Life of Timothy Green

It was only a matter of time before cinema invented the manic pixie dream kid. This one’s a wood nymph, but it’s still just Tuck Everlasting meets Marley and Me. It doesn’t deserve your tears.

20 The Campaign It ’s like a scripted Christopher Guest mockumentary of a post-Citizens United political campaign that flies off the rails into schtick. Not even Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis can make that funny.

This summer, the silver screen welcomed back a young hero – your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Directed by Marc Webb, mastermind behind (500) Days of Summer, The Amazing Spider-Man spotlights Peter Parker’s untold story. Set to be released on Blu-Ray and DVD on November 9th, Aggies have an opportunity – presented by MSC Aggie Cinema’s Blockbuster Series – to sneak a peak of the film on October 5th in Rudder Theatre at either 7:00pm or 9:30pm.

The Amazing Spider-Man impressed movie-goers and film aficionados, climbing the box office ranks and becoming the number four highest grossing film of 2012. Famed critic Roger Ebert called The Amazing Spider-Man a “more thoughtful film…” than Sam Raimi’s trilogy and described Parker’s origin story as being “done with more detail and provides better reasons for why Peter Parker throws himself into his superhero role.”

Peter Parker, an awkward high school outcast with a penchant for science, was abandoned by his parents as a young boy and raised by his uncle Ben and aunt May. Wading through his angsty teenage years and high school crushes, Peter Parker is just trying to figure out who he is. But, when Parker discovers a strange briefcase that once belonged to his father, he embarks on a journey to understand his parent’s disappearance. All clues lead to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors who was, in fact, his father’s former business partner.

The Amazing Spider-Man stars Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Emma Stone as Parker’s true first love – Gwen Stacy—and and Rhys Ifans as Dr. Curt Connors and Spider-Man’s scaly adversary, The Lizard. Unlike Raimi’s trilogy, The Amazing Spider-Man focuses on Parker’s high school life, the mysterious circumstances surrounding the disappearance of his parents, and his rise as New York City’s savior.

Tickets can be purchased at the door. $1 with a student ID and $2 without.

AA pioneer in the psychological thriller and suspense genres, Alfred Hitchcock was a master of his craft. With his twisted endings, rousing plots, and themes of intense anxiety and fear, Hitchcock became a cultural icon known for his mysterious and thrilling films. The George Bush Presidential Library and Museum, as part of the Mysteries of Life film series, is presenting Hitchcock’s classic film “Suspicion” on October 4th at 7:00pm.

99 minutes of spine-tingling drama in striking black and white, Hitchcock’s time-honored film has stood the test of time. Offered free of charge by The George Bush Presidential Library and Museum and the George Bush Presidential Library Foundation, anyone and everyone in the community is invited to watch.

Suspicion, which is based on Frances Iles’s 1932 novel Before the Facts, follows the stirring tale of the lovely and timid Lina (portayed by Oscar-winning Joan Fontaine) who becomes smitten with a dreamy gambler Johnnie (Cary Grant). Johnnie – a handsome cad – convinces Lina to run away with him despite the avid disapproval of her father. Head over heels for Johnnie, Lina agrees and elopes with him.

No sooner than their glorious life together begins, suspicion abounds. Johnnie’s true nature and shadowy past cast doubts over their relationship. Lina, convinced Johnnie has insidious intentions, grows distrustful of her husband and his fascination with poison. When a colleague of Johnnie’s suddenly dies, Lina begins to fear for her own life.

Held in the Annenberg Presidential Conference Center’s Hagler Auditorium, unless otherwise specified. A speaker will introduce the film. Drinks and popcorn are free. Plenteous parking provided at no cost.
