What’s the sound of one tag trending?
In entertainment: Vin Diesel called Furious 7 “the biggest movie in history” and expects an Oscar. You can argue with him if you want but the man can crush a cantaloupe in one hand. Also, netflix ordered dozens more episodes of Arrested Development. Dozens! (17, actually).
In the news: South Carolinian Walter Scott was shot eight times in the back after being pulled over for a broken taillight. Michael Slager, the arresting officer, was charged with murder and fired. Also: younger of the two Boston-bombing brothers, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was found guilty. Sentencing still to come.
In sports: One Direction’s Niall “five iron” Horan is caddying at The Masters for Rory McIlroy, the number one golfer in the world and the second most famous person at the tournament.
In rites of passage: Spring break road trip. McDonald’s breakfast, a rest stop–size bag of Twizzlers, and a four-inch binder of burned CDs, poorly labeled in Sharpie.
In games: LEGO is really covering its bases by announcing a video game and a Golden Girls set. Plus, Nintendo’s trailer for the next Fire Emblem—new gameplay and even more screwed-up family dynamics.
In comics: It’s convention season, which means it’s cosplay season. Please be mindful of the less interesting conference taking place in the hotel’s other ballroom.
