10 Movies Every Millennial Should Watch Right Now
Lovelace Media

Even through we live in 2016, that doesn't mean that everything is necessarily the best. In my opinion, movies made in the 80s and 90s are the absolute best kind.

Here are the top 10 movies every American millennial should watch:

1. Can't Buy Me Love

A story about young love. Not to mention, a young Patrick Dempsey.

2. Night At The Roxbury

A hilarious movie about getting laid and getting rich.

3. The Shinning

A scary movie about the psychotic man who has been consumed within his own writing and his own thoughts.


4. Weird Science

An alternative movie about coming of age and creating a super model robot.


5. Coming To America

A hilarious movie about coming to the U.S as a prince from Africa. In search of his wife, Eddie Murphy finds his princess in the midst of Queens, New York.


6. Goodfellas

If you love gangster movies, this is for you. Filled with blood, guns and Italian spaghetti.


7. Silence Of The Lambs

A crime movie with the great acting and Anthony Hopkins.


8. Seven

A crime movie about the seven deadly sins and how those sins can backfire.


9. Fargo

An alternative film about finding the bad guys in the heavy snow of Minnesota.

10. Boyz n the Hood

A coming of age drama about the heavy life of living in the hood.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
