There are thousands of pictures clogging social media, featuring brightly-filtered landscapes, superimposed with stylized quotes proclaiming that you, too, can do anything, if you devote just fifteen minutes a day to it. While you wouldn’t admit it to the hyper-motivated people that spend significantly more than ten minutes a day posting these, this is kind of true. At the very least, you can...

Gerron Green April 9, 2016 0 Comments
There are few games closer to my heart than The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, originally released for the Nintendo Wii and Gamecube in 2006; it was like nothing 14-year-old me had ever played before. This was my first Zelda game, and I was entranced by the huge world, quirky characters, and captivating story. The game has now been re-released for the Nintendo Wii U nearly a decade after the...

Note from the Editor-in-Chief: There was some discussion about whether or not to post this article due to its dark themes and explicit language. I have chosen to put this on our website for two reasons. One reason is that this album (and all music) is art and art doesn't need to be family friendly. The other reason is that the themes covered in the album are feelings and thoughts that are faced...

To kick off the first of many articles in The Sting’s new #TBT series, I’ve decided to review Kanye West’s sophomore effort, Late Registration. Every Thursday (starting today), we’re going to publish one review of an album, film, or TV show that’s at least a decade old. Before I start this review, I have a confession to make: I always had trouble getting into this album. I have no idea...

[Film Review] Deadpool

Matt Dinoff February 15, 2016 0 Comments
The must-see movie of Valentine’s day weekend - no, the must-see action movie of the whole month of February - is Deadpool. It took nearly 10 years to make this film happen and it was well worth the wait. Deadpool delivers one of the best Marvel movies to date. Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds), a former Special Forces Op turned mercenary, finds a raunchy and beautiful lover in Vanessa Carlysle...
