1 WATCH: Now THIS is a superhero movie
The third “Guardians of the Galaxy” movie comes out this week, and it’s not only the best of the lot, it’s one of the best superhero movies released in a long time. It tops our roundup of new shows and movies you should totally watch this weekend.
2 PLAY & WATCH: It’s coronation time
We Yanks, ignoring the irony of why we are Yanks to begin with, just can’t get enough of Britain’s royal family drama and the King Charles III coronation. If you are planning to take it all in, here’s what you should know and where you can watch and celebrate.
3 SEE & HEAR: Amazing shows are all over the place
From one or the world’s greatest jazz singers to a unique way to watch a classic silent film, there are a ton of fun shows and exhibits to see this weekend and beyond.
4 DINE: A feverishly anticipated new restaurant
SanDai & Kopi Bar, one of the most keenly awaited new restaurants the East Bay has ever seen, finally marks its full opening this week. We checked it out, and here are our first impressions.
5 PLAY & EAT: Going to a Giants game?
The San Francisco Giants have been playing pretty well lately, and they are at home for three games this weekend against one of the best teams in baseball. But what really matters, of course, is what are you going to eat while you’re at Oracle Park?
6 SEE & HEAR: One of the world’s best indie bands
That’s not hyperbole. Modest Mouse is truly a terrific band with a kick-butt catalogue. They’re in Northern California this weekend for two shows. Here’s what to expect.
7 PLAY & SEE: ‘Alice in Wonderland’ in a magic setting
A new take on Lewis Carroll’s classic “Alice” stories is underway, and Golden Gate Park seems the perfect spot for this immersive show.
