2016 Will Be The Year Of The Films

Thanks to Marvel, DC and Disney.

2016 Will Be The Year Of The Films

I am at a loss. I wonder what to do with my life. I live in one of the greatest generations for movies. I won the Battle of Middle Earth in 2003, I graduated from Hogwarts in 2010 and now I survived the Hunger Games. Yes, of course there are so many superhero movies to come out in the next three years, but those can be abundant and last until the end of mankind. Through the tragic passing of great film trilogies and sagas, here are a few movies to be super psyched about in the up coming years. (This article contains posters and trailers. No spoilers intended.)

" Star Wars: The Force Awakens"

Just watching that trailer gives me chills. How can you not be excited for this! Just think, the first film was released in 1977! Now, we are getting what appears to be one of the greatest sequels to a saga possibly of all time! I cannot express in mere words the excitement that lurks within me for this film.

"Finding Dory"

A few weeks ago, Ellen DeGeneres released the trailer. Here it is.

I shed a small tear because this is my childhood. I do not think I have been so excited about a cartoon movie as I have been for this one!

"The Huntsman: Winter's War"

Chris Hemsworth, a powerful red-head and a Halsey song in one trailer is pretty fantastic all in its own. Needless to say, I am pretty excited for this film, but I enjoyed "Snow White and the Huntsman." Well, I enjoy almost any movie with Chris Hemsworth, but I give hope to this film.

"Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice"

This could be the real kickoff for DC films. The competition with Marvel is pretty steep, and they generally lead to really great films, but DC is slow to put out films. This should be the start of a great DC era.

" Suicide Squad"

Again, DC is showing true promise of breaking out of its shell. I do not know which one I most excited for, but the promise of good superhero (or should I say villain) films is on the horizon. I am still a bit disappointed that Tom Hardy passed on this film, but he will always be the best Bane.

"Alice Through the Looking Glass"

I love Wonderland, and the fact that Disney is taking us back is so fantastic! Of course, who does not love disappearing cats, mad hatters and a Jabberwocky? Full of adventure, this looks to be another one of Tim Burton's fantastical creations.

"The Jungle Book"

Disney is making my list again with this live action remake. I think I am truly drawn to Scarlett Johansson's voice, but that is great casting.

"Captain America: Civil War"

Oh boy, Marvel, you got me! The biggest thing now is to decide if you are Team Captain America or Team Ironman.

All in all, 2016 looks very promising for movies, and that is not even all of the films. Marvel, DC and Disney definitely know what they are doing because they are putting out exciting films. I hope you enjoy any or all the films as much as I will! Here's to 2016!

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.
