7 Must-See Summer Movies (2016)

There are plenty of great movies that are coming out to theaters this summer. From ratings of G to R and genres of animated to horror, there are a ton of movies to look forward to seeing. I think that the film industry has given us a good variety of films to choose from as well. I know that going to the movies on a nice summer day is the last thing that many of us would think of doing, but there are handful of rainy days and chilly nights that can be used to go check out these new films. Here are a couple of new films that are about to hit the big screen that I think are worth seeing this summer!

1. Finding Dory

IT HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! Well, not completely, but on June 17th the movie that all of us Disney/Pixar fans have been waiting for. This film is all about our favorite little forgetful blue tang, Dory. In this movie, Dory wants to find her parents and family. On her adventure to find her family, Dory runs into some new friends and foes. This movie is at number one because it’s been the movie that everyone has been raving about since the teasers from the fall.

2. The Conjuring 2: The Endfield Experiment

Lorraine and Ed Warner are at it again with another ghostly investigation. As a continuation from the first film The Conjuring, the Warners are called to investigate a house in London. This film is surely to be a hit, or at least that is what I think. I recommend that you prepare yourself for plenty of jump scares and try not to scream in the theater.

3. Suicide Squad

It is another movie that all of you superhero/super-villain fans have been waiting for. Most of your favorite villains are chosen by the government to complete a mission that the government things is too dangerous for the superheroes, so why not send in the villains… makes sense, I guess. The film had teasers last year with shots of the famous duo, Joker and Harley Quinn, where both villains have had a major makeover. I, for one, am super excited to see this movie. Only thing, is that we still have a couple of months to go, since the film is going to hit theaters in August, but it will be worth the wait.

4. Sausage Party

From the trailer, you would think that this movie would be for children, but we were all sadly mistaken. Comedian Seth Rogen has created a film that will definitely be one that many will remember. The movie is about food products from a grocery store that originally want to leave the store and see the outside world, but little do they know that the outside world is not the greatest. This comedy film is definitely one to see with a group of your friends one night. Let’s just hope that this doesn’t change your views of food products the next time you go grocery shopping.

5. The Secret Life of Pets

It seems that this summer is filled of animated movies. For those of you who have not heard of this movie, you have probably seen the cute trailer on social media. This cute film is all about pets and what they do when their owners are away. It may get you thinking about what really happens when you leave your little pup alone, but just remember, it’s a movie.

6. The Purge: Election Year

It is time again, the Purge is coming, so prepare yourself. This purge is based off of election year, since elections have been going on and soon the presidential election will be coming around the corner. If you do not know what a purge is, it is when all crimes are legal for a 12 hour period of time. That means, you can get away with some crazy sh*t and for those 12 hours, life is pretty chaotic. Don’t get any ideas.

7. War Craft

For all of you gamers, I am pretty sure you all are pretty excited for this film to hit the big screen. In this film, there is a portal between two realms that opens and a war breaks out. As for the trailer, the graphics looked pretty awesome. I think that the movie will be successful, especially with the gamer community.

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.

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.
