HUB Titles: Inception

For most of us, "Inception" was the movie of the summer. It had everything: guns, slow motion and a confusing plot that people would post theories about on the Internet. Now it's coming to the HUB.

Newsflash: Natty Light Tastes Terrible

According to a recent study by RateBeer.com, Natural Ice and Natural Light are among the three worst beers in the entire world. This may come as a shock (or not) to the many of us who see these beers on campus filling garbage cans, edges of the sidewalks, and in your right hand as you read this.

HUB Titles: Dinner for Schmucks

Once again, I find myself watching a movie starring Steve Carell. However, this time he is not a cartoon character. Not that he’s any less animated.

Seriously, I was 100 miles away at the time and I was contemplating life and all its wonders. But how do those responsible for its creation feel it went? I had a friendly chat with TEDxPSU Communications Committee Chairman Mark Poblete to find out.
