  • The Hangover Part III Movie Review (2013) | Roger Ebert
    In Memoriam 1942 – 2013 | ★ ★ ★ ★ ROGEREBERT.COM Choose a Section REVIEWS THE HANGOVER PART III ★ ☇ | Odie Henderson May 23, 2013 | ☄ 16 “The Hangover Part III” has a high body count for a "comedy", and not all the victims are human. Among the dead, I counted four Print Page people, two dogs, a giraffe and a flock of crazed, cannibalistic, cocaine-addicted cocks. Detailing the human casualties may count as a spoiler, so I’ll focus on the critters: The roosters are blown away, tossed out of windows, and smothered with a pillow. The dogs Like 312 are poisoned with Demerol. Because you’ve seen the trailers and the commercials, you already know what happens to the poor 31 giraffe owned by Alan (Zach Galifianakis), one of the franchise's recurring characters. What you may not know is that none of this Tweet 35 violence is funny, not even when Mr. Chow (Ken Jeong) comments on the animal cruelty by asking Stu (Ed Helms), “What? You’re PETA now?” “The Hangover Part III” is the second unnecessary sequel to 2009's "The Hangover." It was preceded by the reprehensible “The Hangover Part II,” which catered to its scared, straight white male audience’s baser instincts and made even more money than the original. This one opens with two holes, one in a prison wall and the other in the windshield of a moving car. The first hole is made by Leslie Chow, who must have seen “The Shawshank Redemption.” The second is made by the giraffe, causing a massive freeway accident. Both affect the Wolfpack, the group consisting of Alan, Stu, Alan’s brother-in-law, Doug (Justin Bartha) and group leader Phil (Bradley Cooper).

  • HARD Summer Music Festival Requests Move to Glen Helen Amphitheater from Auto Club Speedway
    San Bernardino County Sun (http://www.sbsun.com) HARD Summer Music Festival requests move to Glen Helen Amphitheater from Auto Club Speedway By Neil Nisperos, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin Monday, July 10, 2017 San Bernardino County on Monday was still considering a request by Live Nation for the Hard Summer electronic dance music festival to be held at the Glen Helen Amphitheater this year, according to a county spokeswoman. While a press release Monday from Hard Summer organizers announced the move, the decision from the county has yet to be made, said Felisa Cardona, spokeswoman for San Bernardino County, which owns and operates the amphitheater. “They made the request to hold the Hard Summer Music Festival there last Friday, and the county is considering the request,” Cardona said. “It would be a last-minute addition to the venue.” She did not have a timeline for a decision by the county. The event was held in 2016 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana. Speedway spokesman David Talley referred questions about the change to the Hard Summer organizers. Sources close to talks said Live Nation’s decision to move the venue might have had to do with the number of tickets sold. A representative for the event did not immediately return a request for comment. “I think these concerts go by the number of tickets they sell, the size of the business,” San Bernardino County Supervisor Curt Hagman said in a phone interview Monday. “We have several facilities throughout the region. We have several events there a year and (Glen Helen Amphitheater) would be an appropriate place for it.” All tickets purchased for the Hard Summer music festival this year will allow the ticket holder admission to the Glen Helen Amphitheater, according to organizers.

  • 1 Forever Alone in a Crowd, Arthur Fleck Seeks Connection. Yet, As He
    Forever alone in a crowd, Arthur Fleck seeks connection. Yet, as he trods the sooted Gotham City streets and rides the graffitied mass transit rails of a hostile town teeming with division and dissatisfaction, Arthur wears two masks. One, he paints on for his day job as a clown. The other he can never remove; it’s the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel he’s a part of the world around him, and not the misunderstood man whom life is repeatedly beating down. Fatherless, Arthur has a fragile mother, arguably his best friend, who nicknamed him Happy, a moniker that’s fostered in Arthur a smile that hides the heartache beneath. But, when bullied by teens on the streets, taunted by suits on the subway, or simply teased by his fellow clowns at work, this social outlier only becomes even more out of sync with everyone around him. Directed, co-written and produced by Todd Phillips, “Joker” is the filmmaker’s original vision of the infamous DC villain, an origin story infused with, but distinctly outside, the character’s more traditional mythologies. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck, who is indelibly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham’s fractured society. Longing for any light to shine on him, he tries his hand as a stand-up comic, but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty and, ultimately, betrayal, Arthur makes one bad decision after another that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty, allegorical character study.

    CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED THEORIES In this chapter, the researcher discussed about sociolinguistics, slang, types of slang, the function of slang, American slang, The Hangover Part III, synopsis and previous studies. The clear descriptions were written below: A. Sociolinguistics Sociolinguistics related to language and its relation to society. Slang is a phenomenon that can be studied from a sociolinguistic perspective because slang is part of the use of language. Slang is kind of speech variety or language variety which refers to the form of speech used by speakers or a group of speakers (Fan & Zhou, 2013). In sociolinguistics, the kind of group that have generally attempted to study is called the speech community. A speech community is a group of speakers who use the same language or dialect of the language as standard (Leonard Bloomfield, 1933 as cited in Morgan, 2014). Language has a lot of varieties. Languages vary from one place to another and from one situation to another situation. Language variation due to social and language functions diversity (Surya: 2016).
