h no, you didn’t. The much-awaited restaurant on Oak Street hit a snag Sunday when chef Brandon Lee went AWOL. The enterprise — called 940’s Kitchen & Cocktails — is the brainchild of McKenzie Smith of Denton’s Midlake. This is the second chef the restaurant has seen come and go from the project. Patrick Stark was the original chef named to build a menu in the space that used to be Banter Bistro. Lee was to replace Stark. Maybe the third time will be a charm, Mr. Smith? ■ We didn’t expect the sight of naked orange vans in the Frenchy’s Lawn & Tree Service lot to be such a downer. Is this because we wagged a finger at you for running that stop sign, Frenchy? ■ In a phone interview on Monday, actor and honorary Denton resident Jason Lee mentioned he might be helping with Thin Line in 2016. The homegrown documentary film festival has been on the rise for the last several years, and Lee’s doc on Midlake opened this year’s event. He also mentioned Oaktopia, and said both festivals need more venues. “Whatever I can do to help this city in a cool and creative way,” Lee said to business reporter Jenna Duncan. ■ 35 Denton announced its 2016 dates. The music fest will be March 11-13. Speaking of music festivals, Deep Ellum’s Index Fest — which draws on Denton to supply talent for its stages in Dallas — will be in the spring of 2016. Either fall is too busy, or “strategic partnerships” (read: money) is available in spring. CEO Matt Huber said dates for the fest will be announced this November. ■ Get those creative juices flowing, Denton. Word has it that Denton’s Day of the Dead Festival will debut a costume contest this year on Saturday, Oct. 24, on Hickory Street

All proceeds will go to Serve Denton. Bottoms up. ■ Local hip-hop artists Michael Jordan (known as Woah when he’s on stage) and Gregory Reed (Buk Baby) are in a social media war over who has the best goatee. Should we let them know that Nick Norris’ beard is the MMA fighter Conor McGregor to their JV facial hair? ■ We weren’t eating Wheaties, but the Eli Young Band made an appearance on our box of Vanilla Chex. The Denton quartet joined other country musicians pictured as part of a Feeding America campaign. So they’ve had their picture on a national cereal box, and in 2011 had the No. 1 Billboard song of the entire year with “Crazy Girl.” Is it safe to say the Eli Young Band is one of the most commercially successful bands to come out of Denton? ■ Denton resident and Dallas gallery owner Burt Finger visited Antiques Roadshow in Charleston, South Carolina, last Saturday. Who wants to bet he’ll be on an upcoming episode of the show in 2016? Finger is co-owner of Photographs Do Not Bend Gallery in Dallas.

The Hope Trust, shown during 35 Denton in 2012, is back together again. The Denton band plays Saturday night at Harvest House.

Springing eternal T

he Hope Trust released an EP earlier this year on the down low. And almost as quietly, the band — which had broken up — scheduled a gig at Harvest House for Saturday with two other acts. The Denton rock-pop quintet dropped Silver & Leadback in March. The six-track release sports that familiar yearning of lead vocalist Kelly Upshaw, sublimated into grinding guitar

lines and bluesy hooks. And the band hasn’t lost that questioning, questing lyrical anchor. There’s no telling if Silver & Lead was a long-simmering record the band worked on before the musicians parted ways, or if this is the material that Kelly Upshaw considered releasing as a solo project. Either way, the economic EP reveals the still-beating heart of the Hope Trust of days gone by. This most recent iteration of

the band is brothers Kelly, Jason and Mike Upshaw, with Jon Collins and Matthew Morin. The EP was recorded with Kelly Upshaw on lead vocals and switching out guitar, bass, drums, synthesizer, Mellotron and Wurlitzer. Mike Upshaw played Farfisa organ in the studio, Jeremy Buller played guitar and Tom Bridwell chipped in with drums on one track.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is part of Rare Replay, a bonanza of vintage video games released for Xbox One. The deal swaps 30 games for $30, and it’s worth every cent for the games and the nostalgia.

Nostalgia trip By Nicholas Friedman Staff Writer nfriedman@dentonrc.com

he classics are back, but were they ever really gone? Rare Replay, a new 30-game collection for the Xbox One, seeks to answer that question, bringing together a cast of characters from some of the most beloved games of the last 30 years. So is it worth the entry fee? Well, yeah. Each of the 30 games is presented in a beautifully designed stage-like menu system, with titles listed in order of original release.

these games originally appeared on a Nintendo console, we’re left with a void only they could fill. Every reference to Nintendo has been replaced with either a Rare Ltd. logo or a nod to Microsoft, the company’s current owner. All of the greats are here, though. From the pre-console days we have games like Jetpac and Atic Atac, which are nigh impossible to succeed at for anyone who picked up a controller after 1995. However, they’re frustratingly enjoyable, and the arcade nostalgia is evident. As the list goes on, we get the blisteringly difficult Battletoads and Battletoads Arcade along with R.C. Pro-Am and R.C. ProAm II, some of the most p.m. and 8 p.m. each Saturday. Tickets cost $3-$5, cash only. ● “Solar System Tours,” children’s matinee at noon each Saturday. Tickets cost $3, cash only.

“Straight Outta Compton,” which opens in theaters Friday, tells the story of NWA with Jason Mitch

All-America By Callie Dee For the Denton Record-Chronicle

lmost 20 years after their formation, NWA has a chance to tell their side of the story in what I consider one of the best marketed video premieres of the last few years. NWA (the acronym for N----- With Attitude, a scandalous name at the time) was heralded as the group that changed hip-hop. Before NWA, hip-hop was funky party music with mostly thought-provoking lyrics that included all four elements of hip-hop: MC, DJ, graffiti artist and break dancer. NWA reformed the art into what

we know as gangster rap, a portrayal of the siniste gritty, gun-toting side of the American inner city. Some might say NWA was the beginning of th cline in hip-hop. Others say NWA was a product environment and was telling the story as the artist it. And the things Compton witnessed south of Lo geles in the late 1980s and early 1990s were by no m glamorous. The beginning of Straight Outta Compton set stage for the five main characters: Eazy-E (Jason M ell), Dr. Dre (Corey Hawkins), DJ Yella (Neil Brow Ice Cube (O’Shea Jackson Jr., Ice Cube’s son) and

Ren (Aldis Hodge). Each actor embodies his character exceptionally — to the point I got lost in the moment, like I was watching the story unfold in real life right in front of me. Eazy-E is the gun-toting, drug-selling gangster who helped fund the beginning of NWA. The visionary Dr. Dre got his start as a bedroom DJ, getting lost in his records with his mom screaming for him to get a job. Ice Cube (played flawlessly by son O’Shea) is seen scribbling the lyrics to “Boyz-N-the-Hood” in the opening sequence.

er writer and almost more of hype man in this movie, and DJ Yella is the supplier of NWA’s beats. A few of my other favorites in the movie: Paul Giamatti as the villain and NWA’s thief of a manager, Jerry Heller; Marlon Yates as Dallas’ own D.O.C., and R. Marcus Taylor as the notorious Suge Knight. As we watch the artists’ rise to fame, the audience goes on a roller coaster of emotions. The audience at a Dallas screening laughed out loud in several spots (including a very cleverly used “Bye, Felicia” scene at a hotel). We see the death of Dr. Dre’s brother while Dre was

on tour, and later the heartfelt camaraderie of his brothers-in-rhyme supporting him through the tragedy. We grasp the frustration of these black youths as they suffer discrimination from the police (giving birth to the controversial anthem “[Expletive] tha Police”) and the subsequent media frenzy over their lyrics. Viewers of a certain age will find memories provoked by the film’s portrayal of the Rodney King beating and the Los Angelos riots that followed. We sense deep sadness when Eazy-E contracts HIV, followed by the early See COMPTON on 10

OPENING FRIDAY The Man From U.N.C.L.E. ( ★1⁄2)★ Odd adaptation of the 1960s NBC series is less about a Russian (Armie Hammer) and an American (Henry Cavill) teaming up to infiltrate a shadowy organization with nuclear ambitions, than a sort of pastiche of the ’60s spy genre derived from Vogue magazine spreads. Director Guy Ritchie offers an intriguing and captivating introduction, though, weaving together humor, action, and stylish, angular shots. American agent Napoleon Solo (Cavill) needs to get a girl, Gaby (Alicia Vikander), daughter of “Hitler’s favorite rocket scientist,” out of East Berlin, while Russian agent Illya Kuryakin (Hammer) tries to stop that from happening. From there, the movie devolves into a series of revelations with diminishing returns. Illya and Solo team up, give each other pet names (Cowboy and Peril), debate fashion and travel to picturesque locales all in service of finding a rogue nuclear bomb. Rated PG-13, 116 minutes. — The Associated Press

NOW PLAYING Ant-Man ( ★1⁄2)★Marvel’s Ant-Man is a film not quite sure of itself, like it’s wearing clothes a size too big. Paul Rudd plays Scott Lang, a politically motivated cat burglar just released from prison who’s trying to right himself for the sake of his young daughter, Cassie (Abby Ryder Forston), and for paying child support to his ex-wife (Judy Greer). Lang is recruited by the original Ant-Man, scientist Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), to succeed him in the suit. Directed by Peyton Reed (Bring It On, The Break-Up). Rated PG-13, 124 minutes. — AP Fantastic Four ( ★) Director Josh Trank’s inexplicably plodding and dreary new attempt to adapt the beloved Marvel story. It’s not wholesale terrible — just depressingly mediocre, and at a certain point you sort of start wishing it were definitively terrible. Talented cast includes the usually very compelling Miles Teller and Michael B. Jordan, along with Kate Mara, Jamie Bell, Reg E. Cathey and an expertly creepy Tim Blake Nelson — but their charisma remains largely untapped. In a few words, science-loving humans experience a cosmic accident while exploring inter-dimensional travel and emerge with formidable superpowers. Rated PG-13, 100 minutes. — AP

Compton death of this gangster rap pioneer. Each of these scenes is carefully crafted to bring us the story as NWA wanted it told. The East and West Coasts get most of the credit for this era of rap history, so I was pleased to see the D.O.C.’s story woven into

the story of NWA and Death Row Records. Early in the movie, he’s introduced as Dre’s “friend from Dallas” and is treated as an important figure throughout the film. To have one of our own be so engrained into the history of such a revolutionary time in hip-hop is a proud pleasure. (A bit of trivia: The D.O.C. is shown wearing Dallas Cowboy colors.

The core concept is clever — space aliens misunderstand a recording of old video-games as a declaration of war, and send digital monsters based on those games to Earth as their army.

would back down from a challenge. The voice on the line is her ex-husband Pete (Kevin Kline) and father of her three grown children. Their daughter’s husband has left her, she’s a wreck, and Ricki needs to help. Streep turns in a layered performance as a broke 60-something woman with the spirit and soul of a rebellious, stargazing teenager. Directed by Jonathan Demme. Written by Diablo Cody (Juno). Rated PG-13, 102 minutes. — AP Shaun the Sheep ( ★ 1★ ⁄2) Shaun ★ the Sheep has gone from a sheepish supporting player to wild and woolly movie star. The animated character was introduced in 1995 in the Nick Park Wallace & Gromit stop-action short film “A Close Shave.” Shaun was so popular, he became the star of his own TV show in 2007. Co-writers/ co-directors Mark Burton and Richard Starzak have sent Shaun and the rest of the flock on an adventure — or misadventure — to The Big City. They make the perilous journey to find The Farmer. It takes some help from a local canine and some sheep ingenuity to save the day. Except for some grunts and groans, the movie has no form of verbal communication — which creates great visual comedy.
