- More than entertaining (By Helena Payne News Editor)
If you are like the 100 million viewers who called in to select the winner of American Idol, you are probably mourning a loss like I am. The show pays homage to our generation. We like MTV and we love pop music and we don't want to see it go away.

- Silence is not golden in Notre Dame Stadium (Paul Vasquez Notre Dame doctoral candidate)
Our campus has some serene places: the lakes, the Grotto and the Basilica — places where peace can be found amidst the rush of daily life. Unfortunately, the same could be said for Notre Dame Stadium in recent years. I have been truly surprised at how quiet the crowd can be during a game at times. I challenge all fans to do two things for this season and beyond.

Scene
- `Blood Work' a film that bloody doesn't work (By SHAWN NEWBURG Scene Movie Critic)
"Blood Work," directed and produced by Clint Eastwood, was launched into the running for worst movie of the year a couple weeks ago. A shallow, predictable plot with numerous holes, extremely poor acting worsened only by a lame script and average cinematography left crowds either laughing or groaning at just how bad this movie was.
- Speilberg's `Minority Report:' a movie with brain and brawn (By C. SPENCER BEGGS Scene Editor)
Stephen Speilberg's latest action thriller, "Minority Report," is set in the ultra-futuristic Washington D.C. of 2054. Technology advances to the point that future inhabitants live, for the most part, in an actualized utopia. Even violent crime is almost non-existent as genetically engineered clairvoyant called "pre-cogs" detect and report homicides before they happen. "Pre-crime," as it is called, has eliminated premeditated murders. Those that would commit murders are arrested by rocket pack-wearing commando police officers.
