Made live-action because of a contractual obligation, an actor was given a costume to create the three-foot duck. Howard is ripped from Duckworld and abandoned on Earth, where he befriends Beverly (Lea Thompson), a rocker with a penchant for getting into trouble. After exposing Beverly's manager as a thief, Howard takes over while scientists investigate ways to get him home. In the end, Howard must defeat the alien Dark Overlords and weigh his fate against that of the entire world.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2014\/06\/howard-the-duck\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Friday, August 8<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>From 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the <strong>Firehouse Gallery<\/strong> at <strong>Genesee Pottery<\/strong> is the <strong>Opening Reception<\/strong> for <strong>Temporality<\/strong> by <strong>Katie Carey<\/strong>, and <strong>Sarah Heitmeyer<\/strong>, on display through August 23.

Fifteen years after he is inexplicably snatched off the streets of Seoul and held prisoner in a windowless hotel room, a Korean businessman (Choi Min-sik) is suddenly freed, still with no idea why he was imprisoned in the first place. Determined to learn the identity of his tormentors, he slices, dices, and hammers his way across the city, and discovers revenge really is a dish best served cold&mdash;with a side of live octopus.

Young clown fish Nemo feels stifled by his overprotective father, Marlin, but when Nemo is captured by a scuba-diving dentist, it's up to Marlin to track him back to Sydney and rescue him. Along the way, he meets forgetful Dory, a few twelve-step program sharks, and sea turtles surfing the current. The voice work by Albert Brooks, Willem Dafoe, Ellen Degeneres, John Ratzenberger, and Geoffrey Rush wonderfully punctuates this endearing animated fish story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2014\/06\/finding-nemo\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting around 9:30 p.m. at <strong>Abilene<\/strong> is excellent ska-driven rock from <!-- 2009-Sep-16: Bug Jar-excellent ska-driven rock, also 2009-Aug-20, Village Gate-great rock with a ska-ish fluidity --><strong>The Beaumonts<\/strong>. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abilenebarandlounge.com\/Events.html\">Abilene website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>Improv Comedy Battles<\/strong> continue at <strong>Bread and Water Theatre<\/strong> (172 W.

While many college graduates struggle to find menial employment waiting tables and cleaning toilets, new student loans over the next 10 years will total $184 billion. Even the once-heroic, tuition-free holdout Cooper Union in New York City now charges students, thanks in large part to hedge fund loans and flashy facilities costing more than $170 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.little-theatre.com\/event\/Jul14\/ivory-tower\">Little Theatre website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting at 8 p.m. at the <strong>Dryden<\/strong> is a screening of <strong>Sommaren med Monika<\/strong> (<em><strong>Summer with Monika<\/strong><\/em>, Ingmar Bergman, Sweden 1953, 96 min., Swedish w\/ subtitles, 35mm).<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>The first Bergman feature released in the U.S., this is one of the key films that contributed to the image of European Cinema as a more artistic and challenging counterpart to Hollywood. In her first work with Bergman, Harriet Andersson leaves an indelible impression as an adolescent temptress who takes off with an errand boy (Lars Ekborg) on a whimsical escapade, and walks out in boredom, leaving him to care for their child. This escape from the drudgery of working-class Stockholm to the Swedish countryside pays homage to Italian Neorealism and anticipates the French New Wave.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2014\/06\/summer-with-monika-2\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>The Fatty Acids<\/strong>, effortlessly tight, fast, hard-pop-rock from <!-- 2011-Jun-18: Bug Jar-good pop-ish, punk-ish rock; also 2011-Jan-10, Bug Jar-effortlessly tight, fast, hard-pop-rock --><strong>Routine Involvements<\/strong>, and <strong>Ivy's Panic Room<\/strong> perform at the <strong>Bug Jar<\/strong> starting around 9 p.m. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bugjar.com\/2014\/07\/rochester-ny-the-fatty-acids-w-routine-involvements-ivys-panic-room\/\">Bug Jar calendar<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Wednesday, August 13<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>From 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. starting at <strong>Starry Nites<\/strong> is <strong>Riddle Ride<\/strong>.<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>Time for this years bike game..

When he returns to New York, his highly organized life begins falling apart, especially when he is reunited with and falls for high school classmate Polly Prince (Jennifer Aniston). Introducing him to \"risky\" but worthwhile life experiences, Polly brings Reuben out of his comfort zone. Philip Seymour Hoffman is at his comedic best here as Reuben's best friend Sandy Lyle, a former child star floundering in community theatre, whose talents come in handy at the perfect moment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2014\/06\/along-came-polly\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting around 9 p.m. at the <strong>Bug Jar<\/strong> is <strong>Polyphony<\/strong>, <strong>Ack<\/strong>, and <strong>The Inner Planets<\/strong>. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bugjar.com\/2014\/04\/rochester-ny-polyphony-nj-w-ack-the-inner-planets-teenset-45-dance-party-to-follow-bands-at-midnight\/\">Bug Jar calendar<\/a>, 2014-Aug-4]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here's what's going on this week:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2091],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-jayceland-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3336","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3336"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3336\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3346,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3336\/revisions\/3346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3336"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3336"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3336"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
