Alana M. Carroll Art Director  A protest against the Trump Administration on Oct. 18 filled the State House’s yard. The crowd of protestors, over 30,000 people strong, proceeded to march from Providence Place to Kennedy Plaza, chanting, waving signs and passing flyers.

Micah J. Marrapodi Assistant Opinions Editor Director Joachim Rønning’s “ Tron: Ares ” hit theaters Oct. 10, 2025, and many critics—“critics” may be generous—are getting it wrong.
