After waiting 14 years, the Disney animated superhero sequel "Incredibles 2" doesn't disappoint. It surprises and delights with its exciting plot, humor, and lovable characters.

While the movie features several new, interesting characters like Evelyn, Winston, Tony, and Voyd, the heart of it contains the original characters. As a sequel, most viewers will be familiar with the background story but Incredibles 2 does what every great movie strives to do. It shows the characters growing.

Throughout the movie, the prominent heroes are complex and have their own flaws and quirks, but they rise to work together and show family support and love. It is a Disney movie after all. "Incredibles 2" is a great movie because it's character driven. Here are seven characters and seven reasons why you should see the movie. Catch it before it leaves the theaters!

1. Determination in Helen, or Elastigirl

As the new face as a superhero advocate, we see Helen's hesitance to be away from her family and breaking the law. But even better is that we see her determination to complete her mission and save the day. She struggles with balancing both parts of her civilian and hero life, and the clash of the two makes it intriguing to watch.

She earns back the respect of the public to build a better future for all supers like her children while basking in the spotlight she never fully had. It is, dare I say, empowering to see her interaction with gender dynamics.

2. Family values in Bob, or Mr. Incredible

Bob goes through his own struggle during the movie. Because he is used to being in the spotlight, it is difficult for him at first to stay at home and support his wife as she seemingly solves the visibility problems superheroes had instantly. But, it's hilarious and heartwarming to watch him find ways to be as as incredible dad as he is hero to each child.

3. Resilience in Violet

As a teenager, Violet is disgruntled and rightfully so. Without giving too much away, her teenage boy troubles are hopeless and cringeworthy until she takes it upon herself to take action to solve the problem. As the oldest child, she also challenges her default role as Jack Jack's babysitter.

It is enjoyable to see her character growth as she accepts her responsibilities and changes her attitude in her role as a superhero along with her resilience and her actions of her love life.

4. Eagerness in Dash

Dash plays the role of confident and "annoying" (amusing) little brother well. His character adds spunk to the movie because of his eagerness to fight the bad guys. His activities are reckless and often solve problems as he is eager to do good as a superhero.

5. Humor in Jack Jack

This movie is incredibly funny, and Jack Jack is the source for most of it. The variety of situations he gets into is humorous, and you can't help but admire that baby's grit and inclination for superhero work too.

6. Support in Lucius, or Frozone

While Lucius' iconic scene makes a resurgence, he also has a large role as supportive family friend. It is wholesome to see his true inclination to help the family and the easygoing friendship the adults have among themselves.

7. Eccentric soft side in Edna Mode

The lovable costume designer becomes Jack Jack's honorary aunt after watching him for a night to observe his powers and make him a superhero suit. This scene is sweet because it shows her loyalty to the Parr family and brilliance at rising to the challenge of fitting Jack Jack's variety of powers.

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.
