Is the new Batman worthy of the Dark Knight title?

Through the glorious years of Adam West all the way to Ben Affleck.

The universe has had its run of good (and bad) Batmans. In the upcoming years we will soon have Robert Pattinson leading to the ultimate question, is this new actor going to be better or worse for the future of our beloved Dark Knight?

While we all have our different opinions on the actor, his acting skills are much broader and serious before and after the Twilight series. His many portrayals in other films have made him a much better role for upcoming movies such as his recent role in High Life (2018) which received an 83% on Rotten Tomatoes. W

hile many fans and critics believe Pattinson has no right to claim the role of the mysterious DC crime-fighter due to his past role as a self-loathing and depressed vampire in the Twilight series. It's hard to argue his acting skills couldn't fight the same emotion as an overly depressed and wealthy hero.

I mean generally speaking Edward Cullen was pretty much the same as Batman besides the expensive suits and crime-fighting. However, the two both find common ground in regards to bats (in the sense vampires suck blood and so do bats) and a depressing, dramatic past that represents the way they act, behave and live in everyday life.

While I firmly believe we should all learn to accept change and positively embrace the new Batman we are getting (because they aren't going to change it over some whiny men who didn't enjoy a supernatural romance movie series).

Robert Pattinson is a diverse actor and whether you're still stuck on a movie that even he hated or learning to love his acting skills in all the other films he is amazingly doing so well with I highly advise you embrace what is to come and prepare yourself for the upcoming DC movie, The Batman.

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.

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.
