While initially very quiet and reserved in class, it was clear to professor Dustin Hanvey that Javier always had a lot more he wanted to say.

‘Blue Beetle’ scribe leaves students buzzing over Latinx cinema – PCC Courier

Stodgy old Hollywood can’t keep up with its young audience – PCC Courier

While the AMPTP and its studios have reached an agreement with the Writers Guild of America (WGA), their fight to keep the actors under their thumb rages on. The LA Times released data from a poll which found that the majority of Americans side with the workers on strike. With 34% in favor of actors and 7% with the studios, the remaining 59% is split between people sympathetic to both sides (29%) and people with no opinion(30%).

The same poll also found 51% of Americans had not seen a single mo
