Watch This: Stranger Things by Geraldine Garcia Have you heard of Netflix’s new show? This summer, a new show called Stranger Things was released on sinister June 15th. Since then, the thing show has gotten many rehas alviews. It’s also one of the ready top shows on Netflix right followed him.

Eleven escapes from the facility in which she’s been and joins Will’s friends to try and get him back. I think that what makes this show good is the scenery, the plotline and how it is being perceived. Something about the scenery or setting makes it feel nostalgic and the fact that it is in the 80’s. Although there are eight episodes, they are very complex and the plot is told clearly with right pacing. It’s not rushed or too slow. There’s also enough time for each character, in which you can kind of tell what their point of view is and what their feelings are. It’s full of mystery and suspense, so there are somethings that you might never get to know. There’s also been rumors that there might be a second season to it too, but it has not been officially confirmed. Whenever you have nothing to do or you just want to binge watch Netflix shows, I recommend you watch it. So what is it about this show that has the audience so captivated? Maybe it’s because of the nostalgic feelings or the suspense.

The song is divided into two parts; in the first, you feel like rap, like beat, and then in the second part you get a slowed up flow and a little personal with Frank. This is one of my personal favorites on the album and many have agreed in the media. Jackson’s Top 5: Songs on Blonde Frank Ocean—Blonde others. Two songs later you After the long wait to Frank Ocean’s return to new music, we finally got it. Last time, we were refreshed with Frank Ocean’s hit “Thinking bout You” (and the Vine ‘A potato flew around...’ This year, we get the new Frank Ocean in a whole album titled Blonde, which is produced and featured by many familiar names such as Queen Bey (Beyoncé), Tyler the Creator, Kendrick Lamar, James Blake and Kanye West. The Review: As you get through the first few songs, Frank Ocean really gives you a poetic feel, almost as if he’s moreso flowing his words like a rapper more than a singer. Then you get “Self Control” where he starts off singing about how a person has just caught his eye and now is his only desire, which makes him do And then it gets better when Andre 3000 gets pretty much a full song and raps about how he feels, as if he’s overworking himself because he thought everyone wrote their own raps and reality struck him recently. After being calmed down on tracks 11, 12 and 13 (the cover of Stevie Wonder’s song “Close to You”), you get “White Ferrari,” where he reminisces over good times he spent with someone of his past.

Well if not I’ll tell you right now. An urban legend is basically a story (myth). Some are true and some are not. Well, some urban legends can be funny, and some can be a bit creepy. Today I’m going to give you guys an urban legend I think that is weird, and you can check out some stories yourself. Trust me, there's way more legends that I'm not going to be talking about. To find some stories just go on Google or Bing and just look up “urban legends.” B.E.K. (Black Eyed Children or Kids) There’s a story that a journalist named Brian was out late out at night. He got in his car and his car was parked in front of a movie theater. As he was preparing to leave, two boys knocked on his car window. Brian rolled down his window to see what they wanted (he said the boys looked no younger than 16 years old). One boy asked if he could drop them off at there home so they could pick up their money that they forgot to bring to watch a movie. Brian started to feel an eerie presence, and he said that the back hairs of his neck began to stand and he got the chills, and also started to be terribly afraid. He didn't understand why he was feeling this way. Brian glanced up at the movie theatre and he noticed that the last movie of the night already begun and he noticed by the time he drove the two boys to their home and got back to the movie theatre, there wouldn't be any movies playing by the time they came back. Brian said that the boy who was doing all the talking became more pushy and started saying stuff like “c’mon, we're just kids and it wouldn't take long, and The Weekly Panther — Week 2 FRIDAY, AUGUST 26TH, 2016 Tips & Tricks: Pokémon Go by Cesar Gutierrez Today I am going to be talking about some cool Pokémon tips and tricks for you guys. You guys may know about Pokémon Go: it’s the number 1 downloaded game in the App Store. So if you guys are noobs at this game, you probably powered up your starter Pokémon. Because honestly I did...but here are some cool tips and tricks: it's not like we’re armed or anything.” Brian started straying his hand toward the lock on the car door, when he realized this- he yanked his hand away. He looked up to the two boys to see if they made any weird hand movements and that's when Brain claimed his blood ran cold. Both the children had eyes that were fully black. No pupil and no Iris. Brian quickly said an apology and raised up the window and began to pull off, but the older boy knocked on the door with some force and said the following “We can’t come in unless you tell us it's OK.

Their fight was about Selena’s new girlfriend, and how his fans are being rude to her (you may be asking what does that have to do with her - I know, right? - I’m thinking the same thing). But then he is rude to fans. Now the question is, what side are you on?: #teamselena or #teamjustin? Origin Stories Video Games by Samuel Ardiles Video games have been around for a long while now. They’ve been around since 1958! The first ever game made was a game called PONG. After making the first ever game, video games have kept advancing from there. Like Pokemon GO that knows where you are and when you're walking around. The first ever console made was a prototype call the ”BROWN BOX” Celeb Cormade by a man named Ralph H. Baer, ner: also known as “The Father Kanye West of video games”. FRIDAY, AUGUST 26TH, 2016 Watch This: SYFY Channel by Jaime Galindo Have you heard about channel 122 on the SYFY channel? If you haven't, you should. These are the reasons why you should watch the channel. First, the movies like Sharknado 1, 2, 3, 4, Lake Placid, and Anacondas. The movies that I just put there are some of them, but there are still more, like other shark and alligator movies, including Yeti and Cyclops. They’re not good movies, but exciting. Some people might like the movies and some not. Second, the shows like Ghost Hunters, Paranormal Witness, and Z Nation. Those shows are good. The show GH is about people that get German-born television engineer haunted, and the ghost Ralph H.

Lastly, there are some shows on Netflix that you can watch, like ZN and other shows. There is an app called SYFY NOW and SYFY SYNC. THE WEEKLY PANTHER FRIDAY, AUGUST 26TH, 2016 Moviesout with Check on Strong Female YouTube: RudanC Characters by Daunte Washington & Auby Carmen Cantu tumn Ellis “I’m attracted to films that have strong female characters, because there are strong female characters in my life.” —Ryan Gosling. There are A LOT of movies, not just in general, but specifically movies with strong leads. There are a variety of movies where the strong lead character is male. But today we are going to be discussing movies where the strong lead character is in fact, female. I’ve found a select group of films where I will be telling about what the movie is about, and who the female actress is. The first movie we have that has a strong female lead is a movie called: Million Dollar Baby. This dramatized film is about a young determined woman, who is trying to pursue her career as a professional boxer. The woman who plays the ‘Million dollar Baby’ is an actress named Hilary Swank. You may be familiar with her in other films as well. Our next movie, is called The Call, which is about an operator that takes an emergency call from a young woman who has just been abducted. Halle Berry (the main actress) has to work to protect this girl from whatever her captor has in store. YouTube Nation: RomanAtWood by Jesus Ramirez RomanAtWood has two channels. One of his channels is mainly based on pranking people in public. His second channel is based on daily vlogger. He is one of the top pranksters on YouTube. Also, he is in the top vloggers on youtube. RomanAtWood’s main channel has 10,000,000 subscribers. On his second channel, he has 9,000,000 subscribers. He has a wife named Brittney Smith and he has two kids named Kane and Noah. Also The Weekly Panther — Week 2 This next one I personally think is an interesting one for an actress that I would never think to play the main role. In this movie called Gravity, Sandra Bullock plays an astronaut that ventures off to space, only to find herself, stuck, floating around space, trying to find a way out of this drifty situation. Finally, my favorite out of all of these, is a movie called The Beasts of the Southern Wild (pictured above). In this movie, a young girl (Quvenzhane Wallis) and her father whose health is slowly slipping away, face ice caps melting, causing a huge flood, sweeping away her Bayou community. Young Hushpuppy has to learn the ways of courage and love. he has two dogs. One of them is a german shepard and a white husky. Their names are Zeus and Flash.
