Deadpool:
SPOILER WARNING

“Deadpool” is a superhero, comedy/action film starring Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson (Deadpool). Wilson is diagnosed with terminal cancer a few years after he meets and gets engaged the beautiful Vanessa Carlysle ( Morena Baccarin). That’s when the infamous Agent Smith shows up. Agent Smith offers Wilson the opportunity to participate in the "Weapon X" project, we Marvel fans love so much. After being brutally tortured to his limits to cure his cancer, he is pushed one last time to bring out the mutant gene inside. His cancer goes into overdrive and his body starts healing itself faster than his cancer cells can kill his body. He becomes virtually indestructible. He then takes up the name Deadpool. Shortly after, his fiance Vanessa, who previously thought Wade had died, is captured. With the help of the X-Men, Colossus (Stefan Kapicic) and the Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand), Deadpool saves his girl.

This movie is very adult. I would not recommend it for younger audiences. This movie has a huge fan appeal for taking stabs at Hugh Jackman, who plays his last role as Logan (Wolverine) on Memorial Day for X-Men: Apocalypse. From taunting Jackman, to his previous movie “The Green Lantern”, to breaking the 4th wall, this is the Deadpool we all love. Reynolds's acting was his best yet with a surprise in every scene. However, this movie wasn't perfect. Fox Entertainment received hateful comments from people who thought the nudity and profanity was over-the-top. The amount of sexual scenes almost took away from what people came to see. But in reality, that's how I think Deadpool should be viewed; heroic and sadistic; comedic to a point. Deadpool with surely be one to remember. My rating out of 5 for this movie would be a gracious 3.9.

Fans can look forward to this year's breathtaking superhero movie lineup:
-Batman vs Superman (Their releasing Wonder Woman played by Gal Gadot)
-Wonder Woman Origins

-X-Men: Apocalypse

-Captain America: Civil War

- Suicide Squad

-The release of the Justice League trailer

-Wolverine 3

My personal opinion of this movie is: not great. Not that the character was spot on or that this whole movie was perfect, almost. How Deadpool was portrayed in his entirety, and with his consisted jabs at Hugh Jackman.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
