RAUNCHY BUT FUNNY ‘MILLERS’ IS EVOCATIVE OF CHASE’S ‘VACATION’ Every once in a while, a raunchy but hilarious movie comes along that is worth recommending for those not easily offended by bad language, sexual situations and humorous nudity. “We’re the Millers” fits that description and can best be described as similar to the very funny “Vacation” movies with Chevy Chase and company, but on extreme steroids. The cast is perfectly blended and well-acted. Former “Saturday Night Live” performer Jason Sudekis could be on the pathway to becoming the next Vince Vaughn for his role as David Miller, a lowlevel drug dealer who is forced to pay off a debt by going to Mexico for delivery of what turns out to be a much larger supply of pot. In hopes of avoiding suspicion, he attracts a fake family consisting of a stripper neighbor played convincingly by Jennifer Aniston; a nerd teen superbly portrayed by English actor Will Poulter (the highly memorable Kenny); and a troubled runaway, Emma Roberts. Along the way they meet up with another RV couple, Kathryn Hahn and Nick Offerman, with Hahn and

Poulter close to stealing scenes from the more wellknown actors. The spiderbite scene and aftermath featuring Poulter makes this movie among the summer’s most memorable comedies. And after all the raunchiness and uncomfortable (to some) humor, it ends with an upbeat and family-friendly tone. By all means, leave the kids at home, discourage your teenagers from going, and if you are easily offended by gutter language and sexual humor, think twice about going. “We’re the Millers” quickly earns its R rating, but when the story
and grossness are put into perspective it’s one of the better-made laugh-out-loud flicks of the year. Three stars for this film playing at the Mall 8 in Hutchinson. Aunt Mable might despise it, but it is likely to crack up Uncle Charlie. DAN DEMING Hutchinson

Singing sensation Kaleaha B., a 16-yearold from Hutchinson, carried the evening at Concerts for the Cause this past Saturday. She sang a 30-minute set of songs with background music from a CD and she did a phenomenal job! Several acts cancelled at the last minute and, under tremendous pressure, Kaleaha B. took to the stage and literally saved the day (and the evening’s concert). She had the crowd joining in on songs such as “The Fresh Prince of Bell Air” rap and others. Kaleaha sang her heart out as she danced and pranced across the stage. She got a lot of crowd pop and turned what began as a rather lackluster show into one that Saturday’s crowd will not soon forget. Kaleaha B. performs around Hutchinson, so make sure to check out one of her shows, if you happened to miss her at Concerts for the Cause. This 16-year-old is going places! Lacey Cruse took the stage after Kaleaha B. and wowed us all with her tremendous talent. She accompanied herself on guitar. She explained at the beginning of her set that she had planned to have another guitarist help her with accompaniment but he had broken some bones in his foot and wouldn’t be there. But that didn’t matter, as Lacey’s sound was as big as all outdoors. Everyone was clapping their hands and moving to the beat. Lacey’s truly a talented singer. Bob Colladay showed up to purchase some food and help out the cause, which was Third Thursday. He just happened to bring along a few of his musical instruments, as all good musicians do. He got talked into playing a set on stage, too. Bob’s music is truly unique and if you haven’t heard him play the ukulele, you are missing out on a rare experience. Third Thursday was the nonprofit cooking up the hamburgers and hotdogs with the help of Pools Plus. They also hosted a silent art auction during the concert. Don’t forget that Third Thursday festivities take place today. This is always a fun event each month and you don’t want to miss it, so check it out on Main Street today. Concerts for the Cause did have two performers pull out at the last minute with no excuse. It’s unfortunate when performers’ egos get in the way and they don’t honor their commitments. As Danny Larzardi of Murder Ordained remarked, “The real ones (performers) show up.” I guess when you’re a part-time musician you can throw away your fan base whenever you choose. The

But it’s all good; Kaleaha B. and Lacey Cruse just scooped up that fan base and they’ll run with it. As I’ve always said, no one ever remembers the singers who didn’t show up. This week’s performers at Concerts for the Cause will be Marshall Matthews, who is an Elvis impersonator; Katie Berry; A6; Prayer Bones; and Creeping Shadows. As Concerts for the Cause winds down toward the end of August, multiple performers will be showcased, so you won’t want to miss out on some great new music in small sample packages. The nonprofit featured will be CatSNIP, a spay-and-neuter initiative project for the feral cats in Hutchinson. LYDIA LOWE Salina
CASH MOB’S BUSINESS-HOPPING CONTINUES The Hutchinson Cash Mob Group returned to its mobbing ways Saturday. For the first time in the group’s history, this was a surprise mob. About 25 people walked into The Hot Spot in downtown Hutchinson, ready to spend at least $10 each. Mobbers came away with
hot sauces, salsas, candy sauces and coffee. After the shopping was done, most of the group went next door to The Saltrock Family Restaurant and had lunch. The Cash Mob group nominates and votes on what local business they will mob every other month, now on
the first Saturday of the month at 11 a.m. You may ask to join at Hutchinson Cash Mob. The group will verify that you are not a local business owner prior to approving your membership. BOB COLLADAY Hutchinson

CONCERT ON THE CREEK A THIRD THURSDAY HEADLINER BY KRISTEN RODERICK For The Bee kroderick@hutchnews.com Last summer, Jamie Kaminkow and Adam Alexander recorded six original songs for their EP. Their band Tin Cup Monkey was on hiatus and the new band Last Transit had not yet started to perform. Now these original songs are a forefront to Last Transit’s show in this summer’s only Concert on the Creek, which will be today – Third Thursday – at Avenue A Park. “This is a family-oriented event,” said Craig Parrott, who organizes Concert on the Creek and is a member of Last Transit. “It enlightens people to different music.” The band is a mix of acoustic, electric, pop, rock, country and blues. It has something for everyone. The show is being sponsored by Lowen Corp., which wants to encourage local businesses to sponsor concerts and arts, Parrott said. When other sponsors backed out of the slated three concerts for this sum-

BLUES BROTHERS ARE YOUNG UP-AND-COMERS BY RYAN CHRISTNER For The Bee ryanc@hutchnews.com Trying to gain exposure within the cutthroat world of the music “biz” is hard enough. There’s the grueling schedule of performances, the savvy art of marketing and networking, not to mention the necessity of developing a look and sound unlike anything else out there. And that all comes after the years it takes to hone one’s skills through constant practice. Toss in acne, homework, bedtimes and all the other pressures of growing up and one would expect the Pina Brothers to be in way over their heads. But since officially forming in February, the young siblings from Wichita feel like they’re gaining momentum. Roots The brothers – Andre, 16; Brandon, 14; Chris, 11; and occasionally Jessie, 9 – were drawn to blues because of its position at the base of the musical family tree. “Blues is the root of most of the music genres of today, like rock, country, jazz, all of the newer stuff,” said Brandon, the band’s mature-beyond-his-years guitar player and lead vocalist. “It’s actually really, really fun.” Because of the music’s many different influences, choosing blues has allowed the boys to perform at many more venues than if they had pigeonholed themselves by selecting a more specific style such as hard rock, patriarch Richard said. In their early stages, the boys began attending jams in Wichita, meeting other musicians and showing off their own talents. Later, they were invited to attend the Wichita Blues Society’s Member Appreciation Party at the Port of Wichita. The more events they attended, shows they played and contacts they made, the more opportunities were made available to them. The Pina Brothers played two shows at this year’s Riverfest in late May and early June and even have appeared at locations in Topeka

The Pina Brothers, a blues band from Wichita made up of siblings Andre, 16, left, Brandon, 14, center, and Chris, 11, right, will perform at Metropolitan Coffee on Saturday. The brothers, who occasionally are joined by their 9-year-old brother Jessie, are the sons of Hutchinson native Richard Pina.
IF YOU GO WHAT: The Pina Brothers WHEN: 7 p.m. Saturday WHERE: Metropolitan Coffee, 1329 E. 17th Ave. COST: Free WEB: metrocoffeehutch.com and Kansas City. Soon, they’ll be making their debut in Hutchinson, their father’s hometown. Family reunion “I ... have been gone awhile. The city looks different to me,” said Richard Pina, who graduated from Hutchinson High School in 1987 and afterward attended Hutchinson Community College. But since moving away more than 20 years ago – first for college at Kansas State University and Friends University, then to pursue career opportunities in Louisiana, Colorado and now Wichita – he’s been back only a handful of times. His children only know about the Salt City through his stories. Now they’ll finally get a chance to see it with their own eyes. The Pina Brothers will perform at 7 p.m. Saturday at Metropolitan Coffee, 1329 E.
17th Ave., in front of relatives still living in the area. “We’re excited about that,” Richard Pina said. After so many years away, it’s Richard’s hope that his children’s band will become a frequent act at the establishment, meaning locals can expect to see more of Brandon, Andre (bass), Chris (drums) and Jessie (harmonica/vocals). Rising stars Since their early shows, Richard Pina said his boys have begun getting calls from new venues and places they’ve already performed, seeking to book them for upcoming shows, as well as from several other musical groups asking if the Pina Brothers would like to be an opening act at their concerts. “The blues community is fabulous,” Richard Pina said. “They see (the Pina Brothers) as the future. That’s exciting, and it’s also encouraging.” At the same time, he said, his children’s youth has created some boundaries. The most common has been overcoming preconceived ideas that, because of their age, the boys are not talented or that they play simple music aimed at a younger
audience. One listen, though, and most of those notions are thrown out the window. “They’re wanting to be seen as a real band, not a novelty kid band,” Richard Pina said. “The remarks that we get is they sound a lot older than they are.” That sound is evident in their biggest hit so far, “Mojo Shuffle,” which was recorded on their father’s phone but has gone on to receive more than 1,000 downloads off their website, www.reverbnation.com/PinaBrothers. It also is possible the track will appear on the group’s upcoming CD set to be released independently in October. Recorded in the family’s basement, the album will be a mix of original material and cover songs. Richard Pina said his hope is it will be distributed through national blues societies. If all goes according to plan, however, any future CDs will be released through a record label. And while the Pina Brothers haven’t been signed yet, they’re hopeful such a development will come in the near future. The perks For as much attention as the band is receiving,

though, the Pina siblings said that getting their friends and teachers to believe the tales of their musical exploits hasn’t always been easy. “They don’t really believe you until they see you,” Brandon Pina said, explaining how they often were met with disbelief by instructors after regaling stories of playing in a local bar with much more accomplished musicians – that is, until said instructors were encouraged to come to a future performance. Once there, they couldn’t deny who was on the stage. Friends were easier to win over, especially for Andre, who started selling T-shirts at his school to drum up interest. “They think it’s cool,” Andre said of his peers’ reaction to news that he was in a band. Especially the girls, Brandon added. “They talk to us a lot more,” he said. Like their more successful counterparts, the young band has been gifted with a few freebies when they play a show, such as complimentary food and drinks – “Pop,” Richard Pina quickly clarified.
The ties that bind One other benefit of the band has been a strengthening of the brothers’ natural family bond. Unlike with other bands, the boys all sleep under the same roof and can congregate whenever the mood hits them. “When you get up in the morning, you just get together and play,” Andre said. “You don’t have to wait for them to come over.” The Pinas have learned each others’ strengths and weaknesses, as well as each member’s subtle bodily cues during a performance to send messages and help their show run more smoothly. And as a result, Richard Pina said he has been told by other bands that his children seem very “tight.” More than the accolades or giveaways they may receive, that’s really what the boys are looking for. “The entire goal of the Pina Brothers is to bring us all together,” Brandon said, “and it’s worked pretty well.”

SINGLE-SHOW TICKET SALES STARTING AT FOX BY TIM SCHRAG For The Bee tschrag@hutchnews.com Get them while you can. At 9 a.m. Monday, the Fox Theatre will begin selling singleshow tickets for its upcoming 2013-2014 performance series. “The Fox Theatre seats just over 1,200,” said Randy Mathews, executive director of the Fox. “We've sold about 300 season tickets so far, so there are still plenty of seats available for each of the eight shows in the series. However, we've had a lot of calls
throughout the summer about several of the performances. “We expect some shows to sell more quickly than others, especially our season-opening show, Doc Severinsen, on Saturday, Sept. 28. As always, we encourage our patrons to order early to ensure the best seating selection.” For the first time, orders also may be placed online through the theatre’s website, www.hutchinsonfox.com. Ticket buyers are encouraged to place their orders early because seating is limited. Additionally, the public can purchase them at the box office, which is be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout the week. Mathews also noted that seating is available next to

season ticket holders depending on the show, so if a ticket holder would like to add a ticket for a particular show, it is typically doable. “Specific seat availability varies from show to show, of
course, depending on demand for those tickets,” he said. “And the majority of our season ticket holders prefer seats in the center section of the main floor, as you might expect. However, some single seats are scattered throughout the main floor and others have opened up because not all of last year's season ticket subscribers opted to renew this year.” The series kicks off with the legendary trumpeter and bandleader Severinsen and his Big Band. That will be followed by the Broadway show “Ring of Fire: The Life and Music of Johnny Cash,” on Oct. 24; and the 1940s USOstyle musical revue “All Hands on Deck” on Nov. 16. The series resumes after the holidays with a sentimental salute to the baby boomer generation, “The Wonder Bread Years” on Jan. 18; then, romantic musical “The Fantasticks” on Feb. 1, 2014; Imago Theatre’s critically acclaimed “Frogz” on Feb. 25, 2014; the hit improv comedy troupe “Second City” on March 8; and comedian and impressionist Rich Little in his acclaimed one-man show “Jimmy Stewart and Friends” on April 12. “We have added an eighth show to this year's series lineup, so I think there is truly something for everyone,” Mathews said. “We have a legendary trumpeter and bandleader, a renowned comedy troupe, two Broadway musicals, an iconic comedian and impressionist, an amazing children's theater production and much more. I'm excited about the season and I look forward to seeing all our friends at the Fox again this year.”

BOOK BRINGS KENNEDY’S HEADY FINAL DAYS TO LIFE BY CHRISTOPHER SULLIVAN Associated Press “JFK’s Last Hundred Days: The Transformation of a Man and the Emergence of a Great President” (Penguin), by Thurston Clarke For a blunt-titled book with a tragic conclusion that every reader knows from the start, Thurston Clarke’s “JFK’s Last Hundred Days” manages to surprise and even occasionally to delight. This book is about life, a quick-pulsed three months of life, before it’s about death. It’s about forward movement and daily accomplishments, often history-making ones, before it’s about lost opportunities and, as the Israeli statesman Abba Eban characterized the assassination of the young president in his prime, “one of the most authentically tragic events in the history of nations.” It’s worth noting that among these 100 days were some that John F. Kennedy himself called his happiest. The story line of these days takes the reader from early August 1963 through his death on Nov. 22. The book has the feel of a wideranging diary, each chapter focusing on a successive week or even a single day. It details Kennedy’s personal dealings – playing with his young children, John and Caroline, in the Oval Office, for example, or singing sentimental songs at the family compound in Hyannis Port, Mass. – as well as his political maneuverings and presidential actions. At times, the events are laid out hour by hour, but never tediously. This was a time in which
REVIEW
civil-rights activism was rising toward a crest. We see Kennedy conferring with black leaders and, in one testy White House meeting, with the white leadership of Birmingham, Ala., amid deadly violence there. As the March on Washington plays out at the Lincoln Memorial, we see the president listening at an open White House window with a black doorman as the throng sings “We Shall Overcome.” We watch Kennedy plunge into foreign policy – pursuing back-channel contacts with the Cuban and Soviet leadership, wrestling with what to do about Vietnam, where a coup that his administration fostered ends with two South Vietnamese leaders being murdered. We’re privy to his horse-trading with congressional leaders, including his successful effort to win Senate ratification of the seminal Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. Politics then was about bipartisan deal-making and constructiveness, as Clarke shows. He quotes Kennedy in what could be a
rebuke of today’s bitter gridlock: “Let our patriotism be reflected in the creation of confidence in one another, rather than in crusades of suspicion.” The subtitle, “The Transformation of a Man and the Emergence of a Great President,” makes clear from the outset that this is an admiring chronicle. Kennedy skeptics may be dubious of some of its implied or stated projections. Would the Civil Rights Act have passed if he hadn’t been killed? Would he have found the way out of Vietnam that he sought, or an approach to Russia and China that could have hastened the Cold War’s end? Kennedy-phobics may roll their eyes at the book’s implication that JFK was becoming a better husband toward the end. While not glossing his philandering history, it argues that something changed between Jack and Jackie Kennedy after the death of their infant son, Patrick, in August 1963. Citing times and places, Clarke suggests that JFK passed up specific liaison opportunities with other women; he also quotes multiple observers as noticing previously unseen loving looks and demonstrative gestures between the normally cool, private couple. Such observations illustrate the highly effective research method employed by Clarke. Small, telling details about JFK get hoovered up along with the big things, such as policy debates recorded by secretly installed Oval Office microphones, to create immediacy and surprise. When the always restless
Kennedy doodles during dull meetings, Clarke’s descriptions of what he draws give a glimpse into the president’s mind. On Nov. 21, during his final trip, he made a doodle
on the stationery of a Texas hotel. This one wasn’t his typical impatient scribbling. He drew “a sailboat heeling slightly in the wind,” Clarke writes. “He put a diamond-shaped fig-
ure above it, perhaps one of the kites he and John had flown off the back of the (presidential yacht) ‘Honey Fitz’ the previous summer. ... This one was evocative and serene.”

BRYAN RELEASES ALBUM AMID HIGH EXPECTATIONS BY CHRIS TALBOTT AP Music Writer NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Luke Bryan has taken an unusual approach to the business side of his career since winning the Academy of Country Music’s entertainer of the year in April: He’s turning down almost everything. Rather than cashing in on his win and successful ACM co-hosting gig with Blake Shelton, country music’s newest platinumselling, arena-filling star has decided to leave sacks of money on the table, ignore television and double down on the live performances that have gotten him this far. Even Bryan can’t believe he’s doing it, but his logic is pretty unassailable. “It’s my first year in,” the 37-year-old Georgia native said. “I won entertainer of the year and I ain’t really been an entertainer yet, or what the definition of that is. I had the same feelings when I was asked to co-host with Blake. I turned the ACMs down the first time.” Bryan’s eventual change of heart paid off by helping him pull in the fan votes needed to win one of country music’s biggest awards. It was one of the most surprising upsets in the history of the ACMs – his competition included Shelton, Taylor Swift and Jason Aldean. The award is usually given to established performers at the top of the genre. They’re not only selling oodles of albums, but also headlining arena- and stadiumsized shows and representing country music in a positive way to the
‘Crash My Party’ record plays it safe BY MICHAEL MCCALL Associated Press Luke Bryan, “Crash My Party” (Capitol Nashville) Within the first minute of “That’s My Kind Of Night,” the opening track on Luke Bryan’s new album “Crash My Party,” he cites tailgating, beer drinking and a nameless “pretty girl” in suntan oil and cowboy boots – all standard modern-day signifiers for a country song. Set to an electronically altered bass-anddrum rhythm, the song also refers to a country hip-hop mix tape, a reflection of the tune’s arrangement, which

world – and they’ve been doing it for years. Bryan was just moving into that group. He reached platinum status with 2011’s “Tailgates & Tanlines,” and this week releases “Crash My Party,” expected to be the year’s top-selling country album. He’s been greeted with sellouts at his first arena tour this summer. Turns out the fans who voted for him back in April decided it would be OK if the cart arrived at the same time as the horse.
Bryan wants to cement that place in country music. “I’m getting really, really amazing TV opportunities where it’s quite lucrative financially and it would have been stuff in different public spotlights,” Bryan said. “I can’t believe I’m turning them down, but when I huddle up with my core group of people and think about it, I think it’s neat to just handle the headlining right now. I don’t think I’m savvy enough as a headliner to
start taking it for granted.” Bryan became country music’s next big male star last year when “Tailgates & Tanlines” was the No. 3 country album of the year behind Taylor Swift’s “Red” and Carrie Underwood’s “Blown Away” — despite being released in 2011. He was the 10th overall selling artist regardless of genre, and has already taken a significant step to being country’s top-selling artist in 2013 with the bonus album “Spring Break ... Here to Party,” a spring release moving in on gold certification. The run he’s been on means there were high expectations for “Crash My Party” even before he had finished recording it.

I can’t ever really remember thinking about that when we were making the record specifically. We were just trying to make another good record, you know, that the fans will enjoy. The fans will decide, but I think we did a good job. It seemed a little easier – hate to say it, I’m knocking on wood right now – in that we felt a little more comfortable in our shoes this time and it sort of made it a little easier.” Like that album, life is generally coming a little

That theme rings out in the title song and many others, including “Beer In The Headlights,” “We Run This Town,” “Play It Again,” “Out Like That” and on and on. Bryan and producer Jeff Stevens do push the edge of how many electronic effects they can use in a country song. But in every other way, Bryan sticks a bit too predictably with a successful formula on “Crash My Party.” easier, Bryan said. He’s getting every opportunity a performer could ask for and he’s reached all his goals long before he thought he would. So he’s been re-examining how he’ll approach the rest of his career. “It’s like an inner peace deal,” Bryan said. “I’ve almost kind of got to redo my goals, you know? Now I think my goal is just happiness and being good to people and getting joy out of taking somebody fishing and putting them on a big fish or something, and watching fans’ faces at my concerts. I don’t know, man, everything I’ve ever dreamed of has happened. I think now I’m just shifting my goals into pure enjoyment.”
DISNEY PREPARES A TOY OFFENSIVE WITH ‘INFINITY’ GAME BY DERRIK J. LANG AP Entertainment Writer GLENDALE, Calif. – With cartoony posters plastering the walls and toy figures standing at attention on nearly every flat surface, a once ordinary conference room on Disney’s Glendale campus has been transformed into the colorful war room for “Disney Infinity,” the ambitious project from the company’s interactive division that combines real-life toy figures with virtual worlds. “This is like being in my bedroom,” says “Infinity” executive producer John Vignocchi while bouncing around the space, gleefully showing off concept art, prototypes and a mock-up of a store display. “This is really the most comfortable place where you could talk to me. It’s where every massive fight and every major decision concerning ‘Infinity’ has gone down.” It’s fitting the space has been dubbed the “Infinity” war room because the Walt Disney Co. is readying for a yearslong siege – not just a one-time battle – for con-
sumers’ attention with the multi-platform franchise. At its fan-centric D23 Expo on Aug. 11, Disney unveiled a second wave of characters coming to “Infinity” this fall and winter after it debuts Sunday. “Infinity” utilizes reallife toy figures to depict Disney personalities in sprawling virtual locales where those same characters can do stuff like race vehicles, create and play games and construct buildings – cooperatively or alone – as well as go on specific adventures in their own realms. Each toy stores and transmits the character’s history through an “Infinity” reader. The new additions include Sorcerer Mickey from “Fantasia”; Woody,
Jessie and Buzz Lightyear from “Toy Story”; Wreck-It Ralph and Vanellope from “Wreck-It Ralph”; Phineas and Agent P from “Phineas and Ferb”; Jack Skellington from “The Nightmare Before Christmas”; Rapunzel from “Tangled”; and Anna and Elsa from “Frozen,” a new Disney film set for release Nov. 27. The second infantry joins such previously announced characters as Jack Sparrow, Hector Barbossa and Davy Jones from “Pirates of the Caribbean”; Mike and Sulley from “Monsters University”; Lightning McQueen, Mater and Holley Shiftwell from “Cars”; Mr. Incredible, Violet and Dash from “The Incredibles”; and Lone Ranger and Tonto from
“The Lone Ranger.” “In the beginning, when we picked our first set of characters, it was more about going around and saying why we wanted those characters to the various groups around the company,” Vignocchi said. “As time went on and the creators began to see what we were doing with ‘Infinity,’ the roles kind of changed a bit, and they started approaching us with excitement.” The game – or platform, as Disney likes to call it – will be available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii and Wii U, as well as accessible through Nintendo 3DS and PC, and on tablets and smartphones. The toys work seamlessly between consoles, meaning a Mrs.
Incredible figure can go from a PS3 in your living room to the Wii in your friend’s basement with her superpowers intact. It’s not the first of its kind. “Infinity” closely resembles the successful “Skylanders” franchise from Activision Blizzard Inc. However, Disney’s rendition of the genre relies on better-known characters and adds an openworld toy box mode akin to “LittleBigPlanet,” where users’ imaginations can run wild, for example, plopping Jack Sparrow in Cinderella’s coach. If audiences pull the trigger on “Infinity,” it could become another huge moneymaker for Disney. A starter pack, which includes the game, reader,
three characters, three playsets and a power disc that bolsters abilities or adds new items to the toy box, will be $74.99 with additional figurines and discs sold separately or bundled together, like in the villains and princess packs. Disney is betting “Infinity” will be a hit. Disney Interactive Studios, which has been responsible for such games as the Mickey Mouse console adventure “Epic Mickey” and the online virtual world “Club Penguin,” is the company’s least successful division. In recent years, it’s moved away from console games in favor of more popular and cheaper mobile games. “It doesn’t mean the console can’t be popular and successful from a bottom line, but it’s definitely a different world,” Bob Iger, the company’s chairman and CEO, told the Fox Business Network ahead of the D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center on Friday. “We’ve had our, call it, fits and starts in this business, and we think we are due for a hit. We believe ‘Infinity’ is that hit.”

LAND RETURNS WITH ‘STRONG RAIN FALLING’ BY BRUCE DESILVA Associated Press “Strong Rain Falling” (Forge), by Jon Land The first four novels in Jon Land’s Caitlin Strong series read like episodes from the “Die Hard” franchise, with the swaggering, trigger-happy female Texas Ranger standing in for the preposterously heroic John McClane. But in “Strong Rain Falling,” the author seems to have dropped his heroine into the middle of a James Bond movie. The tense, suspenseful plot begins when gunmen attempt to assassinate the two teenage children of Cort Wesley Masters, the reformed mob enforcer who is Caitlin’s love interest. As Cort and Caitlin try to find out why someone wants the boys dead,

they uncover a diabolical plan to plunge the United States into the Dark Ages. The scheme is the brainstorm of Ana Callas Guajardo, a powerful Mexican national with a lust for power, a bone-deep hatred of America and a secret
high-tech lair reminiscent of Blofeld and Goldfinger. Guajardo even has a psychotic, almost superhuman, henchman who brings to mind Bond characters like Jaws and Oddjob. Land created Caitlin, the scion of four generations of legendary Texas Rangers, when he realized how scarce female heroes were in the thriller genre. Now he’s provided her with a female villain worthy of her prowess. Working with Caitlin and Cort is the usual supporting cast including her long-suffering boss, Capt. D.W. Tepper; their menacing friend, Guillermo Paz; and the meddling Homeland Security agent who calls himself Jones. As usual in a Caitlin Strong novel, the plot has roots deep in the Lone

Te Kanawa gives ‘Downton’ an operatic touch THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON – “Downton Abbey,” the world’s favorite country-house soap, is getting a dose of opera. Producers say soprano Kiri Te Kanawa will appear in the upcoming fourth season as real-life diva Nellie Melba. The New Zealand-born singer says “I couldn’t say yes fast enough” to appearing in a show she loves – and enjoyed her time on set so much she named her new dog Abbey. Te Kanawa sang for journalists at a preview of the new season on Tuesday. In the new series, Melba – a huge star of the early 20th century – joins the aristocratic Grantham clan for a house party. The costume drama about the family and servants in an English stately home returns to British television this fall, and airs in the U.S. on PBS in January.
Star State’s past. This time it’s the early 19thcentury genesis of the Mexican drug trade and the Texas Rangers’ border struggle with Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa. This allows Land to lace his story with tidbits of Texas Rangers lore. That and details about America’s vulnerability to attack give the novel a veneer of seriousness, but as usual, the appeal of a Caitlin Strong novel lies in its improbable, overthe-top action scenes. The history may intrigue you – and the portrayal of America’s vulnerability may scare you – but mostly the novel is just rollicking no-holds-barred fun.
