Movie Review: 'Paddington 2'
Before the comments come, I can already hear you: "lighten up!" "It’s just a kids movie!" "All the other critics like it!: I can hear you saying these things before you type them as a response to this review; there is no need for you to repeat them. I’m speaking of my hatred for Paddington 2 and what I already know will be the response to that hatred. Paddington 2 has received across the board raves and yet I hated almost every second of it.

Why I Love 'Yu-Gi-Oh!'
When I look back at the anime that I fell in love with—his was back in the summer of 2015—I always thank my younger self for getting into Yu-Gi-Oh!, this amazing, inspiring anime that I will never forget and let go. I've learned so much from this anime like friendship, Egyptian history, the card game (duel monsters), and it even makes my day smile.

Severus Snape: Good, Bad, or Both?
As a loyal D.A. member, supporter of S.P.E.W., fan of the Holyhead Harpies, and Potterhead extraordinaire I have been in my fair share of debates concerning the one and only Professor Severus Snape. I've heard it all: from Snape being solely responsible for Harry's success to Snape being the reason Harry's life was so terrible in the first place. Of course, I do hold my own opinions on the matter, however, I would like to give you both sides of the debate. Once you finish reading, feel free to share on social media with your personal thoughts!

'What Should I Watch Now?!': First Edition
We've all been there: the show hole takes us into the darkest part of our brains and we think about all of the wrong that we've ever done in life and what the future holds and if the spider we killed was going back to its family before we squashed it.

The Wage Gap Soap Opera
General Hospital's Carly Corinthos was Hell in Heels. She stole her mother's husband, lied about the paternity of her son, and framed her lover for murder, and that was just a Thursday. Her original portrayer, Sarah Joy Brown, won back to back to back Emmys for her performances. Yet today she revealed that she was paid less than half of what her former male costars, Steve Burton and Maurice Bernard, made. This drags soap operas into a national conversation for the first time, and they are not on the right side of history.

Movie Review: 'Almost Paris'
Almost Paris is a confounding movie. On the one hand, I like the characters; they’re consistently interesting people. On the other hand, some of the storytelling choices and the editing of scenes are so abrupt and odd that I can hardly make sense of the film as a whole. Directed by Domenica Cameron-Scorsese, Almost Paris is not a bad movie but it’s quite a peculiar movie.
