    Edgar Wright has established his directorial style, despite only having six films under his belt. Baby Driver is no exception. For the entirety of the picture Wright fuses his visual comedy style with over-the-top action sequences involving Baby (Ansel Elgort) driving around his determined heist crew. He clearly enjoys his “job”, but is in great debt with Doc (Kevin Spacey), who he has been repaying ever since stealing and driving his car at a young age. There are standouts in each crew, Bats…

    " Today, on December 14th, 2017, a warily anticipated vote was finally cast. This vote, having been taken through the Federal Communications Board of Commissioners, repealed the previously instated rule of Internet Neutrality. Of course, 'Internet Neutrality' as a term can be taken many ways- however, in this case, it was a law which prevented internet service providers from playing favorites with various sites, apps, and other online communication networks by giving one more speed and benefit…
