In a land where birds and fuzzy talking forest creatures help you get dressed every morning and handsome princes ride on white horses, it's surprising a girl would ever want to leave that place. Disney's "Enchanted" follows every classic, fairytale clichés and dumps them all onto the streets of New York City. The result is a sugary, but lighthearted tale of a princess finding her way to Mr. Right. (0) comments

"August Rush" wisps you away and into the world of music, sound, emotion and truth. I have to say this movie was very different than what I had expected.
The trailer for "August Rush" looks so ridiculously cheesy, I didn't even want to waste the time watching it, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Swedish rockers The Hives released their new CD, "The Black and White Album" Tuesday, which is their fifth album to hit the United States. To put it simply this album rocks. Almost every song is a fast paced rock your socks off punch in the face. But it's a good kind of punch in the face. The kind that makes you go back and ask for more. (0) comments
If laughter truly is the best medicine, then the Punch Line comedy club should be a pharmacy for Sacramento State students. Located in the Howe 'Bout Arden Shopping Center, the Punch Line is a popular yet somewhat hidden hideaway for those looking to escape the monotony of school, work and everything in between. The first thing I noticed about the Punch Line was that its location was not obvious. The club is located up a set of stairs and down a hallway. Luckily, if you get lost you can simply follow the sound of laughter echoing from the club. (0) comments
