Two things come out of Starstruck’s fundamentally just-off-center rom-com structure. There are heartwarming romantic set pieces, too, but Starstruck is just as interested in how the pair works their way into and out of those experiences as it is in indulging the moment itself. Yes, there are big argument scenes as Jessie and Tom try to figure each other out, but they occur around the edges - much of the attention is on either the buildup or the aftermath. The series is a romantic comedy but with the narrative focus just slightly off-center from where it’s usually fixed. And it’s all the more appealing because it’s a bit surprising that this very awkward day is even part of the story, much less the crucial first act.Įvery element of Starstruck works from this general idea. It’s a lovely sequence that carries a thrill of emotional realism, full of fumbling missteps and attempts at grand gestures that misfire wildly. So they circle each other’s feelings and avoid each other’s eyes, and in its own way, this is also exquisitely romantic. Tom isn’t quite sure what to say to her, and she isn’t sure what she wants from him. ![]() The uncomfortable, semi-surreal gulf between her life and Tom’s has not gone away. She’s spent all her money on the plane ticket home. How is this going to work? She can’t bring herself to go back to her apartment now that she’s done this big, dramatic farewell. She and Tom are overjoyed! They’re in love! This is going to be great! Then the bus keeps driving, and Jessie begins to spin out a little. Season two begins right there in that moment when Jessie decides to stay. But the typical move in this kind of story would be to jump ahead, to skip to the part where the leads have moved in together and are madly in love, but then problems arise - you get the idea. It’s exactly what Starstruck is so good at, this translation of enormous, giddy romantic tropes into everyday settings and circumstances. Season one ends with the bus pulling up to the stop where Jessie should transfer for the airport … and then she doesn’t. Jessie and Tom’s relationship has been fun but casual no one has made any real declarations. ![]() She does not have a flourishing career in London, she has no family, and it doesn’t make sense to stay in this expensive city where she has few serious ties. Jessie and Tom are on the way to the airport, where Jessie is planning to board a plane and move back to New Zealand. One of my favorite of the series’ unusual and yet completely straightforward choices is the very first scene in season two, which hits HBO Max on Thursday and begins at the exact moment season one left off. Jessie and her boyfriend, Tom (Nikesh Patel), are roughly the same height, a yawn-worthy observation and yet almost shockingly radical within rom-com land. (She is not, for instance, perfect in every way except for one hang-up that has led to her being single forever.) The series adopts a much-loved romantic premise - regular person falls in love with movie star - but rather than the Notting Hill model, where their lives are turned upside down by fame, Starstruck frames this as a quotidian annoyance. The series is created and co-written by its star, New Zealand comedian Rose Matafeo, who is distinctive and charming and down-to-earth but not in the way romantic comedy often conceives of those terms. “Seemingly” because they’re often blindingly obvious once you look at them, and yet they fly in the face of many accepted norms in contemporary romantic comedies. Starstruck is a series full of fantastic, seemingly counterintuitive choices.

![]() They demand that airline workers maintain 67 percent and 80 percent of their staff working, which the union describes as abusive and illegal for violating the right to strike. The government’s has responded by demanding minimum services to both easyJet and Ryanair staff. There are currently 50 workers summoned to disciplinary meetings.įor its part, the easyJet staff have been denouncing the company’s low salaries, which do not even reach the minimum wage. The employers have even gone so far as to impose fraudulent penalties against workers who joined the strike, inventing minimum service notifications that never reached the crew members. Despite living and working in Spain, they don’t have access to Spanish healthcare.Īccording to the union USO, “Ryanair has again committed all kinds of illegalities during this strike: more workers on duty than a normal day, threats, coercion, scabbing between bases offering to pay three-hour cabs and even international scabbing, bringing Portuguese, Italian and also non-EU crew members, from Morocco or the United Kingdom, violating the right to strike.” The workers are demanding 22 vacation days and the application of occupational risk prevention regulations.įurther, Ryanair forces its flight attendants to open bank accounts in Ireland to receive their salary and to pay taxes in that country. For several months, the agreement was being negotiated, but then the company left the negotiating table. The strike was called because there is no collective-bargaining agreement with the company. ![]() Nearly 450 easyJet cabin crew were called to strike over the weekend, as well as several dates over the next month. Workers at Ryanair airlines, along with the unions Unión Sindical Obrera (USO) and Sindicato Independiente de Tripulantes de Tripulantes de Cabina de Pasajeros de Líneas Aéreas (SITCPLA), have gone on strike and plan to stay on strike until July 28. Amid a global airline crisis, Spanish airline workers are on strike for almost 2 weeks. ![]() I spent a little time with Jak 3 as well, but it should be clear that this is an excellent collection of gameplay that still stands tall today. Every animation and sound rings true with cartoony goodness, giving me the impression that I really, really screwed up buying a Gamecube way back when. As shiny and polygon-stuffed as the Uncharted games are, I preferred Jak 2's free-roaming, hover car-stealing, and punch-spamming. Obviously some of the story-telling elements will seem lacking compared to Naughty Dog's modern work, but the charm and spirit shines brightly on Vita.īut enough of this, Alex told me that Jak 2 kicks the crap out of Precursor Legacy, so I jumped into the next game and barreled through several hours on a lazy Saturday. Jak's spinning-attack animation harkens back to Crash Bandicoot, but the writing and voice-acting are miles ahead of Dr. The first stands up as a steady, but experimental dive into PS2 game design. That's not really a big issue for people interested in reliving each game thoroughly, so I ignored it and played several hours of each game. If you want to hop back and forth between the three games, you'll have to close and relaunch the Collection's application from your Vita home screen. Unfortunately, once you launch a game, I couldn't find a way back to this menu. They seem so innocent and pure in the first game, but flying forward in time makes Jak look like a roadie for Stone Temple Pilots. Jak and Daxter seem to evolve as you scroll between Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, Jak 2, and Jak 3. With the advancements in design, narrative, graphics, and more seen in Naughty Dog's The Last of Us, could these beloved last-gen relics stand up to the experience I just awarded GameRevolution's holy-shit-they-finally-gave-a-perfect-score-A+ to? Of course they can, but only if you take the rose-colored glasses off and expect a trilogy of old console games now available on handheld.īooting the game up, the first thing I noticed was the slick UI created for the game selection screen.

However, they do support all platforms now, not only Dropbox but also OneDrive, Google Drive, Salesforce, even Slack. They only support $10 per user per month and Enterprise plans. Sookasa recently discontinued their personal free version. The downside is that same as Viivo, it only supports Dropbox at the moment. What’s even better, Sookasa has a plan for personal security use, and it’s free. All communications between the app and server are transferred over SSL layer to protect the data from being leaked to the Man standing in the middle. Once the key is expired, the user won’t be able to access an encrypted file. On top of that, administrators can set key expiration times. Sookasa encrypts all files using AES-256 encryption. If you are in a big corporation considering taking the great advantage of cloud service like Dropbox, Sookasa is your choice to make the real use of Dropbox very secure with a strong encryption algorithm. Similar to Viivo, Sookasa is designed more for enterprise with even more robotic security features that can make the use of Dropbox that is HIPAA compliant. Therefore, moving towards another solution is highly recommended.
