  Spraanggggg Breaaaaaaaaakkkk, Spraanggggg Breaaaaaaaaaaakkkkk. -Alien (James Franco) All around the world, fans have been waiting for Spring Breakers to come on the big screen. But, here in Saint Petersburg, where the movie was filmed, students from USFSP were dying to see if they had made it in the final cut of the film.

  Where are all my Pretty Little Liars fans? I know you were right there with me: hand glued to the remote, sitting on the edge of the couch, urging Spencer to hurry up and find Red Coat.

Is Toby really on our side? What is with this triangle between Jenna, Shauna, and Melissa? So many questions, so little time…or answers! Now that we have to wait until June for new episodes to arrive, it’s time to unpack what we’ve seen and try to make sense of it all. READ MORE
