November is the time of year when many of the studios begin to release their Oscar hopefuls. While 2016 has been an exceptionally poor year for cinema so far, this months provides a lot of potential quality films that could make an argument for the title of Best Movie of 2016. Here are five films that have potential to make a big splash in the cinema industry this month.

1. Arrival – Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner star in the sci-fi film about a linguistics analysis and her attempts to communicate with alien ships that land on Earth. Combing intelligent ideas and a smart storyline, this movie has received universally positive reviews so far. Release date: November 10th.


2. Dr. Strange – The new Marvel Studios adventure stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton in a film that takes the Marvel Cinematic Universe into new dimensions. With eye-popping special effects, this film promises to bring new life into Marvel films. Release date: November 3rd.

3. Loving – This film focuses around the story of the interracial marriage between Richard and Mildred Loving and their fight to legally live as a family in their hometown. Their case went all the way to the Supreme Court and outlined the definition of the right to marry for many couples after. It is likely to receive multiple nominations at the Oscars after receiving rave reviews from the Cannes Film Festival. Release date: November 3rd.

4. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them – Taking place in the same setting as the acclaimed Harry Potter books/movies, this film could provide Eddie Redmayne the opportunity to continue his fine cinematic form of recent years, this time with a more box office friendly hit. Directed by long-standing Harry Potter film director David Yates, this film has all the ingredients to create something truly magical. Release date: November 17th.

5. Manchester by the Sea – The latest film from award-winning director/screenwriter Kenneth Lonergan (screenwriter for Gangs of New York) focuses on a Bostonian janitor who returns home to take care of his nephew after his brother’s passing. The film deals with themes of family love and sacrifice and is an early Oscar favorite. Release date: November 17th.

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.
