Ruby Hornet's The Weekly Swarm

[The Weekly Swarm] 4/13 - 4/19

We're officially in the middle of April, meaning we're in the long stretch towards summer. Are you prepared for the onslaught of music festivals and weekly block parties? I know I'm not. What I am ready for, however, is recapping last week's great content on Ruby Hornet. While it was a bit of a short week for us, we had some gems, including the first official trailer for Ant-Man, word that Spike Lee is requesting a $3 million tax break for Chiraq, reviews of Unfriended and The Dead Lands, our SXSW interview with Raekwon, why Marvel's Daredevil is their best piece of work yet, and much more! Check everything out below.

We had a short week last week, but not one without some strong editorials from our team. Angela shared her photos from SXSW 2015, illustrating just how lovely and diverse Austin becomes during the annual festival. I reviewed SXSW darling film Uncle John, as well as shared my interview with the film's writers, directors, and lead actor. Xander reviewed the latest installment in the Fast & Furious franchise, Furious 7. Hubert wrote about Wrestlemania 31 and its ability to entice former wrestling fans. You can find all of this and more below!
