I am a big movie fanatic, and rumors about upcoming movies have been flying left and right. Here is a list of movies you should be looking forward to within the next two or three years:

1. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (November 2016)

Based on J.K Rowling’s book, this movie takes place about seven decades before the Harry Potter era. The main character, Newt Scamander, completes a journey to document magical creatures from all over the world, and runs into a Muggle named Jacob. They have an adventure in catching some of Newt’s fantastic beasts, and have to save both the wizarding and Muggle worlds.

2. Star Wars: Episode VIII (December 2016)

The thrilling space saga reaches its eighth installment- after an overwhelming comeback with Star Wars: The Force Awakens. This is a continuation of the story that began last December, with an immediate pickup from the scene with Rey and Luke Skywalker. Not many more details about the movie have been released, but we will definitely see characters like Ben Solo, Finn, and Leia Skywalker.

3. Beauty and the Beast (March 2017)

A modern adaption of the classic Disney princess tale. Emma Watson will play Belle, and Dan Stevens will play the Beast. They will keep the tale as similar to the original as possible, and keep the scoring the same. I have always wanted to see a live-action portrayal of this film, and hopefully more princess tales are in the remaking (Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel).

4. Avengers 3: Infinity War Part 1 (May 2018)

Following in the Marvel’s comic book pathway, this movie will feature all the Avengers reuniting, despite the ending of the last movie, where they seemed to go their separate ways. This two-parter (Part 2 to come in 2019), will involve the heroes battling Thanos, the alien warlord from Marvel’s other superhero mash-up, Guardians of the Galaxy. Exciting news has broken that Ant-Man, a.k.a Paul Rudd, will also be making an appearance in this 2018 flick.

5. The Incredibles 2 (June 2019)

This release is long overdue. I have been waiting for a sequel to this movie since I first saw it back in 2004. Rumors of a second film have been flying pretty much since then, as the end of the first movie hints at a sequel. Many movie critics and fans are speculating that this film will take place after the children have grown up, and feature Jack-Jack, the adorable baby, as a confused teenager that may join the dark side. More details to come.

Other movies to look out for:

2017:Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Justice League, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Fast 8, Power Rangers, Alien: Covenant, Transformers: The Last Knight, Cars 3, Baywatch, and Pitch Perfect 3. 2018:Toy Story 4, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Gigantic, Aquaman, Maze Runner: The Death Cure, Avatar 2, Deadpool 2, and S.C.O.O.B.

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.
