Warning: Major Spoilers The highly anticipated “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has hit theaters, and fans are eagerly waiting to watch bad production decisions be played out in a movie. Warner Bros.’ (WB) attempt to give Marvel a run for its money with its own cinematic universe of DC Comics vigilantes began with the nauseating “Man of Steel.” Director Zack Snyder has returned to tell the second part of Superman’s story, with the same mistakes, same boring action and same complete disregard for character motivation. As it is with most movies, even bad ones, there are still great things to mention. Despite my mixed reactions, everyone should see this in theater for its visual splendor. First, the good: Ben Affleck as the new Batman is stunning.
This Friday, Shippensburg University students will be perform Eugène Ionesco’s play, “The Bald Soprano.” Associate Professor of French, Blandine Mitaut, has arranged the opportunity with the Office of Social Equity, the Commission on Human Understanding and the Department of Modern Languages to allow SU students to witness an important “anti-play,” originally written in the 1950s. The brochure explains that “The Bald Soprano” is a “parody of bourgeois preoccupations with conformity and the pettiness of a life lived artificially,” that “Ionesco reveals the absurdity of a world without apparent meaning.” The play will have three performances — this Friday at 8:00 p.m., this Saturday at 3:00 p.m.
