Fifth in the increasingly slick but decreasingly lucid franchise, Resident Evil: Retribution had potential to be the best entry since the 2002 original. After all, returning director Paul W.S.

Wes Anderson fans know him as Bottle Rocket’s Kumar, Rushmore’s Mr. LittleJeans or The Royal Tenenbaums’ Pagoda (he of the pink pants above). But on Saturday at Ashtanga Yoga Studio, 120 E. Tonhawa in Norman, Kumar Pallana is just Kumar Pallana. The 94-year-old will conduct a two-hour yoga workshop at 3 p.m. for $35, followed by a 7 p.m. magic performance for $10 (free for kids 12 and under). Call 503-7779 or visit ashtangayogastudio.com.

For those who tired of the inspirational-teacher subgenre that flourished in the ’80s and ’90s — think Stand and Deliver, Dangerous Minds, Dead Poets Society — there’s Wuss! Exclamation theirs, the film illustrates why I never would want to teach public school in today’s environment, even as a mere sub.
