The Roundup is the Jesuit Dallas Student Voice and Newspaper since 1942. Learn about us.

Warning: Very minor spoilers of: Captain America: The winter Soldier, Captain America: The First Avenger, and The Avengers. It’s hardly anything but if you want to watch the movies 100% uninformed then beware. When I think about it, Marvel Studios is producing something more like a giant TV series than a bunch of movies. Starting with the first Iron Man,...
Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks Wig Out At Jagbags Album Review Matador Records/Domino Records Released January 7, 2014 Genre: Indie Rock, Alternative Rock, Psychedelic Rock Thom Yorke never made it out of the cave of electronic music that he and his band Radiohead settled in with the release of 2000's centennial Kid A.  He released a debut riddled with odd samples and artificial drum...
SPOILER ALERT: No Fixed Address by Nickelback is awful. For all of the die-hard Nickelback fans out there, this new album is comprised of 11 songs that sound identical. This album sinks so low that it features an equally irrelevant artist, Flo Rida, for one song "Got Me Runnin' Round." Nickelback's feeble attempt to remain relevant, hilarious as it...

Opening with a scene five years prior, Jonas makes the tough decision to leave two of his crew on board a...
Abandoned in the dead of winter, one man crawls from his own grave to go in search for the man who murdered his son, barely grasping onto his life after a vicious bear encounter. Every movement pained by his scars as he hunts for the revenge he deserves. I entered the movie not wanting to be forced to watch gratuitous violence simply for the sake...
These days, it seems like games come and go, but the game in season right now is Among Us, which just took over Fall Guys. It's a simple game yet it can bring about unforeseen collaborations. Jacksepticeye with the Sidemen. Dream and Pewdiepie. The list goes on and on. Even Souija Boy is getting in on it... It's exciting to...
As you might now, Cinco de Mayo is coming up soon, and I wanted to share with you a great dish to celebrate this holiday with, guacamole. Guacamole is delicious because of its creamy and spicy components to the dip carried on a tortilla chip. History and Popularity of Guacamole Guacamole essentially is mashed avocados with many spices. It was first...
