Coldplay performed to an arena packed with enthused fans Nov. 13 at Kansas City's Sprint Center in the Power and Light District.
The globe-trotting, British soft-rock group took the stage a little after 9 p.m., following two opening acts - a country-tinged alt-rock group from Texas, and a DJ who laid down beats in sync with an acid-trip-esque cartoon video.

Car chase, gun fight, foot chase, knife fight, airplane chase, gun fight, explosions: that pretty much sums up "Quantum of Solace," the 22nd film in the James Bond franchise.
While the action is intense and gritty as ever, fans of 2006's "Casino Royale" will undoubtedly miss that film's more compelling plot and stronger character development.

Thirty minutes were left before sophomore theater performance major Sarah Goins had to audition for her roles Friday, and she was in the dance studio warming up for the big moment.
As she practiced breathing and talking through her diaphragm, Goins repeated sentences such as, "She slit a sheet, a sheet she slit, upon the slitted sheet she sit.

Released on Sept. 18, "Rock Band 2" kicked off the second generation of the "music/rhythm" video game wars.

As with most winter seasons, this year PlayStation 3 has released a volley of new games in every genre to get gamers and their families pumped up to spend a lot of money on flashy video games this holiday season. "Dead Space" is one of the winter hopefuls, and I am sad to say that it is not quite the emotional RIDE its television commercials make it out to be.

On Oct. 28, a game was released that may very well change the face of PlayStation 3 forever. "Little Big Planet" came with a lot of big promises, after advertising started in spring of 2008. I am happy to report that, unlike some of the more recent titles for PlayStation 3, "Little Big Planet" delivered on its promises.

Today's column was going to be about how there have been almost no good movies released this year in theaters, but then a different inspiration struck. The absurdly titled new James Bond movie, "Quantum of Solace," is hitting theaters, and I wanted to rant about that for a little while.

You would not want to live in Urinetown. Actually, you would not want your worst enemy to live in the nicest part of Urinetown.

I'll just lay it out for you: "Role Models" is funny. You should see it.
Last week I was slightly disappointed in "Zack and Miri."
This week it's the exact opposite. I had fairly low expectations, and was very pleasantly surprised by the outrageous profanity and hilariously crude (yet excellent) cast.
