My name is Gavin Arucan and I’m a senior who’s attended HBA since fourth grade. I enjoy watching movies and television shows (for some reason, my favorite movie is Spirited Away despite not liking most anime), reading comic books (I’ll have you know that Marvel is better than DC), and digital art (YouTube eats it up). I also occasionally shoot a bow and arrow or hit a golf ball. I’ll gladly share my opinion on anything (because I’m always right), especially on Gravity Falls and Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Weirdmageddon III: Take Back the Falls marks the last episode of the second season of Gravity Falls as well as the last episode of the entire series. As expected, it delivers lots of laughs, action, and tears as the cult favorite Disney cartoon comes to a close. This is part three of a series of …

The seventh and newest installment of the Star Wars saga, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, has proven to be a record-breaking success in the box office. The movie has gained rave reviews among fans and critics alike, so it’s no surprise that the fans of this upcoming anthology of films—Episode VII is the first of …

In my last review, I looked over several episodes from Disney’s Gravity Falls’ second season, ending with the cliffhanger episode, Not What He Seems. Be sure to watch all the episodes and read my last review first before reading on because the following contains major spoilers. Four months after Not What He Seems, the extended …

No, you're not seeing double. For the third day of Spirit Week, students got together in small groups and dressed up alike to pose as twins, triplets, or quadruplets. During lunch, each grade sent up a representative to participate in a breakfast themed speed eating contest. All competitors tried their hardest, but senior Matt Sakai …

The second day of Spirit Week had students tackle another well-known Disney property as they dressed up as the beloved animated characters from Pixar studios. With a significant lack of merchandise compared to Marvel and DC, students had to get creative as they put together all-new costumes based on both Pixar's iconic and obscure characters. At …

It’s no secret that television has made a huge comeback in the last few years and shows such as The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and The Flash have become household names. However an unlikely candidate has been growing in popularity right alongside these other shows and earned its place as one of the highest …

The first quarter of the 2015-16 school year flew by, even as students were just getting used to being back in school again. The Eagle Eye checked in with HBA students and staff about how the first month of school went. Video edited by Gavin Arucan ('16).

Pixels tells the story of Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler), a hapless video game nerd who unwittingly attracts the affection of Violet Van Patten (Michelle Monaghan). At the same time, Brenner, Patten, and their friends fight video game characters that have been brought to life. This may seem like an amazing premise to avid video game …

Buy your tickets and get to work on your cosplay because on September 18, Comic Con arrives in Honolulu for the first time with amazing artists, celebrities, and more. For the uninitiated, Comic Con is a social event in which thousands of people gather to celebrate comic books and pop culture. Comic Con is definitely …

You've probably heard the saying, "They don't make cartoons like they used to" at some point, and maybe you've even thought that too. In the mid to late 2000s, good children cartoons were scarce on television, especially compared to the progressive cartoons of the ‘90s and the Cartoon Cartoons of the early 2000s. Sure we've …
