As everyone watches Avengers: Infinity War and FREAKS OUT (no spoilers, I promise), I figure it’s a good time to write about which Marvel movies are the best of the best! Here you go!

1. Infinity War


Just go see it and you’ll see what I mean. It has an incredible plotline and does an excellent job of bringing the Marvel Universe together. Even if you haven’t seen any other Marvel movies, you’ll love this one! But if you have, you’ll love it even more.

2. Black Panther

I know I’m starting off with the ones that EVERYONE loves, but for good reason. These two movies are incredible as stand-alone movies outside of the Marvel Universe, and they deserve some credit!

3. Doctor Strange

I personally love Benedict Cumberbatch so I may be biased, but even if you don’t love him, this movie is a great stray from what Marvel usually produces. The back story is incredible and unique, and Doctor Strange’s powers are even more so. You may not have heard of this superhero before, but you won’t soon forget him.

4. Captain America: The First Avenger


If you love freedom, you’ll love this movie. The Captain is amazing because he is a hero before he ever gains his powers. He begins his journey as one of the smallest yet bravest army enlisters, then becomes the great leader that we know and love while retaining his integrity and humility.

5. Thor: Ragnarok


This movie made the list because it is extremely important to watch if you want to actually understand the significance of Infinity War in the grand scheme of things. Other than that, there are quite a few awesome female leads, who make the plot all the more enticing.

6. Spider-Man: Homecoming

I love this movie primarily because of how fun it is. Spider-Man is our youngest Avenger by far, and his movie brings out a fun, light-hearted side to being a superhero. His character really brings the MCU together!

7. The Avengers


The OG Avengers; I couldn’t leave this one out even if I wanted to. This is what got us all hooked in the first place. It may not have been the first Marvel movie ever, but it’s the one that sucked everybody into this universe that revolutionized cinema. In my book, this movie has become a classic and is great as a stand-alone film.

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.
