The history of these undead humans spans centuries, and I enjoy seeing new interpretations of them. So that you too can fall in love with some modern Hollywood vampires, here is a list of movies and television [...]
A couple of summers ago, my friends and I decided to go to a free movie screening at a park in Boston. It was a night full of fun, warm weather and great ambience. Outdoor summer screenings can be a summer activity for everyone. They’re almost always cheap (if not free) and are often family inclusive. So if you’re also a Bostonian or [...]
With Boston’s role in the country’s path to independence, it’s not surprising that the city hosts one of the nation’s most beloved Fourth of July celebrations.

Lockhart has been conducting the Pops since [...]

What are you looking forward to this summer? The warmth? The sunshine? The beach? Of course all three, but you should also be looking forward to movies! I’ve assembled a list of this summer’s most anticipated movies. Avengers: Infinity War (April 27, 2018) Infinity War has outsold the previous seven Marvel movies combined in pre-sale tickets, making it by far the most anticipated superhero movie of all [...]
Ask someone what their absolute favorite song is, and odds are they’ll have difficulty choosing just one. The staff here at PSG are no exception. I went around the office to compile a list of everybody’s favorite songs, but could only get an answer by ensuring it only had to be one of their favorite songs. With the responses I got, I decided to [...]
It’s always exciting—and a little nerve-racking—to hear one of your favorite books is getting a film adaptation. Hopefully, 2018 will not disappoint! Here are some books heading to the big screen later this year: Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book is getting another film adaptation.
