Editor's Note: Time to expand our to-go cup area - a modest proposal

Editor's Note: Time to expand our to-go cup area - a modest proposal

As downtown becomes mostly a playground for tourists, it makes perfect sense that the legal area for to-go cups should be enlarged for the enjoyment of those who actually live and work and pay taxes here.

  • Editor's Note: SAV, ATL, and the ‘Superstar City’

    The insidious effect of the red-hot metro Atlanta economy contributes to inflation within Georgia, to an extent that cities like Savannah can't easily absorb it given our depressed wages and slower job growth picture.

Review: Dora and The Lost City of Gold

Review: Dora and The Lost City of Gold

What makes Dora and the Lost City of Gold so appealing is the characterization of its heroine as a perpetually chipper, never-say-die sort, with Isabela Moner irresistible in the part.

  • Review: Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw

    It’s the prickly interplay between Hobbs and Shaw that defines this picture, with Johnson and Statham clearly relishing every opportunity to flex their mouths as much as their muscles.

  • Review: Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood

    Before the picture ends, Tarantino has one ace left up his sleeve, and it’s sure to divide audience opinion with the precision of the Red Sea parting. I only objected to it because it’s a trick Tarantino already used before — to brilliant effect — in one of his previous pictures.

  • Review: The Lion King

    If you’ve seen the original, it’s impossible not to compare and contrast, and this version falls short in practically every way. Those who have never seen the ’94 edition will doubtless be much more charitable in their assessment, although even they might be put off by the soullessness of the entire enterprise.
