Courier Staff Report

More than 200 seniors and a squad of chaperones who partied all night long Disneyland-style will soon be roused out of their hotel beds to get on buses to go spend another night partying, this time Universal-Studios style.

The 254 graduating seniors boarded "deluxe motorcoaches" Thursday morning to take the circa 7-hour trip south to the Magic Kingdom. Some 21 chaperones, including parents, teachers, a Campus Security Technician, a counselor, and administrator and some significant others, tagged along to keep order and join the party, or parties, to be more exact.

After a long day at work, my coworkers and I decided to go out for a late night snack. Since my coworkers did not want to eat at a typical, American diner, one of my coworker recommended Venus Bakery Café. Venus is a hip, Chinese café with decently priced food.

The serious science fiction film genre is dead.

OK, maybe not actually deceased, but definitely on cinematic life support. With exceptions that are becoming rarer and rarer as the new millennium marches forward, and an omnipresent production paradigm that substitutes spectacle for smarts, futurist filmmaking is definitely gasping for breath.

There are several villains in this creative cabal, elements and individuals that want to see the motion picture category cater to fanboys, geeks and the easily entertained. But it seems a real shame that the one literary ideal best suited for the most visual of all mediums is constantly countermanded by issues that have nothing to do with either art form's visionary nature.
