Bellflower
One of the funniest movies about the apocalypse, "This is the End" puts Seth Rogen, James Franco, Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson and Danny McBride all in one house to riff on each other as the outside world goes up in flames. Seeing many other comedy stars die early on (especially Michael Cera) is a real joy. The silly bonding, arguing and zany danger involving the six stars reaches hysterical effect.

The pressure of research papers, big projects and finals can make it feel like the world is coming to an end. Take a break from your personal Armageddon with these satisfying apocalyptic films.
The first half of this visually splendorous and fiercely emotional indie stunner plays almost like a quirky rom-com, as two 20-something, gooball best friends who dream of creating an apocalypse gang pursue two ladies. The second half shows heartbreak as its own brutal apocalypse as "Bellflower" shifts into maximum overdrive, becoming a dark and twisted beast with real fire in its belly.
wasteland on a righteous mission, dispatching those in his way with awesome, stylishly staged violence. Adding to that coolness is Gary Oldman as the zealous town leader who will do whatever it takes to obtain the sacred, powerful book Eli protects.
In this post-apocalyptic western, Eli (Denzel Washington) journeys through the blisteringly crisp, godforsaken
sophomore from Stilwell, said he found the article to be intriguing.
"I thought some of the sources were tenuous sometimes, linking to sites that may not be the most trusted sources, and that's why I think most people are angry," Robinson said. "But the issue remains that if even a fraction of it is true, then it points to institutional racism and a system that is defending itself despite standing for impartiality and justice for all."
This wildly enjoyable '80s classic finds Kurt Russell in his iconic role of Snake Plissken, a rebel operative sent into Manhattan island — now a sealed off maximum security prison where all the inmates roam around as violent street gangs — to rescue the trapped president.
One of the two movies that made up "Grindhouse," this wonderfully campy and ultra-gory zombie movie follows a group of survivors, including a go-go dancer (Rose McGowan) with a machine gun for a leg, in a deliriously entertaining fight through the carnage of their infected town to escape.
This heartfelt comedy cleverly shows people living out the remaining days before the world's impending end. Some have drunken orgies, some try to continue on normally with work and for Steve Carell and Keira Knightley, they become close with each other on a fulfilling road trip.

Lawson said she encourages anyone who took issue with her article to examine why.
Blaine Bowen, too, both Compton and Muhl said.

"I am actually kind of speechless in how quickly it has evolved," Muhl said. "I threw myself into the fire and went for it. I have always been a trial-by-fire person and thankfully it has ended up working out."

While traveling, Muhl is inspired by different cultures, such as the color palettes used to create the fabrics. Last summer she traveled to Croatia, Greece, Istanbul, Turkey, Armenia and Ireland. Blaine Bowen's target market is women in their twenties but there are customers in all age ranges.
"My mom and my grandma and I all wear the same thing but we all pair it with different things so it looks different," Muhli said.
Blaine Bowen also has a Pay it Forward collection inspired by Blaine's extensive volunteer work in high school and in college including being actively involved in Delta Gamma's Service For Sight philanthropy at Kansas. The brand has recently worked with Coral Reef Alliance, African Wildlife Foundation and the Mountain Gorilla Conservation. The brand has also worked with some animal rehabilitation facilities and bases their charity off of environmentally related and wildlife organizations, which Muhl loves and finds important.
"I have really always loved products that found a way to give back at the same time while you were shopping," Muhl said. "That was definitely important for me to contribute into one of my collections and it is definitely all charities that are close to the heart of our brand."
"I think that a lot of white people have a very knee-jerk, defensive reaction to coverage of Ferguson because the discussions about race-based violence can seem like an indictment of white people," Lawson said. "And in a lot of ways it is, because if you are silent about racism then you are complicit in its continuance. But why is your comfort more important than another person's life? Why would you rather refuse to even consider that we have a system in place that only serves you and brutalizes everyone else when having that conversation and altering your behavior accordingly could literally save lives? Is that really what your comfort is worth to you?"
