Comic-Con Updates: DC And Others

Comic-Con this year was one of the better ones yet, revealing all kinds of news for those in attendance and the Internet. Some of it has fans clamoring for more. First, we start with the other comic book property, DC. They didn't present much, but what they did has everyone excited.

DC Comics

" Suicide Squad," the highly anticipated film coming very soon (Aug. 5), released a final trailer which highlighted how intense the third installment in the DC extended universe would be. While some fans complain that it has tried to replicate Marvel's tone more than set its own, the creators ask them to rest assured that the film will most definitely be its own beast.

"Wonder Woman" finally has a trailer of its own and it is explosive. Gal Gadot looks better than ever, and fans are happy to note that she has and makes use of the Lasso of Truth. Taking place during WWI, the first solo female superhero movie promises plenty of action to be seen. "Wonder Woman" will be released Summer 2017.

The final and most exciting reveal was the "Justice League" trailer. In this, we finally see how Cyborg looks, witness Bruce Wayne speaking to (and testing) The Flash, and get to see how Aquaman deals with being found out. The trailer gives the vibe that this movie will be an intense and amusing spectacle. This team-up hits theaters in November 2017.

Other Movies

Other trailers have the internet buzzing though. One such being for a fresh take on medieval fantasy, "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword." With wizards and creatures of the forest, as well as dark tones and epic looking fights, this will be one to watch for. "King Arthur" comes out in 2017.


In another fantastical realm, a new chapter of the Harry Potter world had a further reveal. "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," set in the United States in 1926, this story has a new backdrop and characters to experience and shape the magical events to unfold. The trailer hints at more and more the the fantastical elements of the wizarding world, and looks to be as popular as the other HP movies.

Finally, following the success of "Godzilla" in 2014, "Kong: Skull Island" had an extraordinary reveal. With a star-studded cast (Tom Hiddleston, Sam Jackson, John Goodman, Brie Larson and more), intense and powerful visuals, and only slight sneak peeks at the monster itself, fans are going nuts for this movie. This version of Kong seems more massive than ever, and this will eventually lead to a planned movie in 2020, "Godzilla vs Kong." "Kong: Skull Island" comes out in 2017.

AI music threatens creativity

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
