...flops was the Wachowski brothers' Speed Racer ($43.9 million), which couldn't surmount a demographic challenge - it was a kids' movie based on a 1960s cartoon no kid can remember. "It looked like a video game in the TV commercials, a blitz of colors and not much else," says Brandon Gray, president of Box Office Mojo. "You really had to see the movie to get it. Unfortunately, not that many people did." A less noble failure, perhaps, was The Love Guru, which only took in $32 million despite Mike Myers' relentless promotion on American Idol and the MTV Movie Awards...
...doesn't sound all that different from the old. Replacing the Walshes of Minnesota are the Wilsons of Kansas, who move to Beverly Hills to care for an alcoholic grandmother, Tabitha (Jessica Walter, best known for playing another boozy matriarch, Arrested Development's Lucille Bluth). Like Brenda and Brandon parking their Chevy Chevette in the high school lot next to BMWs and Porsches in the 1990 pilot, new siblings Annie (Shenae Grimes of Degrassi: The Next Generation) and Dixon (Tristan Wilds of The Wire) arrive as all-American kids trying to fit in among some of the wealthiest, most entitled...

Traditionally held in Adams LCR, the event recently moved to Cambridge Queen’s Head—a bigger venue fit for the night’s performances. Besides...
...carried by its zany characters, such as capital venturist Dolores B. Sciencecenter (Emily B. Hecht ’11) and the spastic game-show host Ken Karson (Mike A. Yashinsky ’11). As the play progresses, the castaways begin to form a society led by the egomaniacal Brandon (Tony J. Sterle ’11), and only down-to-earth Cassandra (Caroline R. Giuliani ’11) can see the roots of tyranny taking place. As their society develops, Brandon seeks more power at the expense of the well-being of those around him. The play deftly...
