It has been quite some time since that conversation between Danny Ocean and Rusty Ryan has first taken place. You may know it from the crime-thriller “Ocean’s 11,” which had quite a cast with frontmen George Clooney (Ocean) and Brad Pitt (Ryan).

Also, among the cast were Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Elliot Gould, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Shaobo Qin, Carl Reiner, Eddie Jemison, Don Cheadle, and Andy Garcia. Just to name a few.

The 2001 movie was actually a remake of the 1960s film starring Frank Sinatra as Danny Ocean.

But as recently announced as a part of Good Morning America’s Pop News, the fans are going to get one more. According to an exclusive from The Playlist, the franchise will take on a more femininely makeover for an all female cast reboot of “Ocean’s 11.” The 2001 film featured Julia Roberts (“Pretty Woman,” “Erin Brockovich”) as the only female star.

The idea was actually tossed around last year between the big players of the three-film "Ocean’s’ franchise: Clooney (star), Steven Soderbergh (director), and Jerry Weintraub (producer). Sadly, Weintraub passed away this past July, but the project is still in full swing The Playlist reports.

As for the cast, reportedly actress and producer, Sandra Bullock (“Miss Congeniality”, “The Heat”) will be stepping into Clooney’s shoes as she is set to play the leading lady. Clooney and Bullock recently worked on a project, “Our Brand is Crisis”, which was released October 30 with Bullock starring and Clooney producing. Originally Bullock’s role was written for Clooney, but in the end Clooney decided to work behind the scenes instead. The Hollywood stars also both starred in 2013’s Oscar winning “Gravity.”

No date as to when production will begin has yet been released; however, The Playlist confirms that a screenplay has been in the works for several months now.

It has been 55 years since the 1960 debut of “Ocean’s 11” and Dec. 7 will mark the 14 year since the 2001 debut.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
