We're always excited to see the next horror or action or romance movie, but what about the ones we haven't seen yet? What about movies that are amazing but are just a little older? Why don't more people watch movies from the 1950's and on? Well we should change that. We should embrace the movies that helped inspire some of the new movies that come out today. Here are 10 movies from generations past that you need to watch.


1. "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers"

If you love musicals this is your movie. It has everything from kidnapping to falling in love to dance-offs. This movie will have you laughing, and maybe even crying.

2. "SHAG"

This is one of my favorite movies. It's about four girls that take a trip to Myrtle Beach to meet boys. Things don't go quite as expected though.

3. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"

While I think most of us know about this movie it's still one that we should all watch again..... and again ....and again.

4. "Overboard"

This movie is so funny. It's mainly about a rich snob that loses her memory and falls in love with someone she never expected to.

5. "Trouble With Angels"

There are new Indiana Jones movies, and not so new Indiana Jones movies. Watch all of them.

7. "Sound Of Music"


This one's a classic. If you don't know it you must be a sad, sad human.

8. "Gidget"

There's a tv show and a movie. They're both absolutely amazing. It's all about watching a young girl learn to surf and guide her way through life. After you watch it tell me how in love with Moondoggie you are.

9. "Tammy"


I'm not talking about the new Tammy. I'm talking about the 1950's Tammy. The Tammy where Debbie Reynolds is the star. We all know and love her from the Halloweentown movies, so give these a try. You won't be disappointed.

10. "The Cutting Edge"

Seen One Tree Hill lately? Remember Lucas's mother? Yeah, she's the star in this movie. This movie is about a figure skater that has an attitude problem. She makes ever eligible partner run off. Until she doesn't......

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
