My Favorite Pop Culture Quotes
Everyone has some sort of quote or favorite movie line they enjoy reciting by heart. For me, quoting from pop culture is something I enjoy like performing my own modern Shakespeare adapted play. It is something witty and shows the capacity for someone to be colorful and spontaneous in life.

13 Gandalf Quotes To Use In Everyday Situations
J.R.R. Tolkein’s series of Middle Earth novels are undisputed classics, and the Oscar-winning adaptations of The Lord of the Rings trilogy are as equally amazing.

And nowhere is their skill with words more prevalent than in the wonderfully wise and powerful wizard, Gandalf the Grey/White.

15 Best Dumbledore Quotes Proves He Is the Master of Sass
As we all know, the #HarryPotter series has a reputation for its sarcastic characters, particularly Professor McGonagall and Severus Snape (both brilliantly portrayed by Dame Maggie Smith and Alan Rickman respectively), but Albus Dumbledore’s risible remarks are often overlooked, in favor of his inspirational messages.

"Gon," a Manga Without Boundaries

The Latest On That All-Female 'Ocean's Eleven' Spinoff
Nobody can deny that the Ocean’s Eleven franchise has been pretty successful over the years. From its first Sinatra-led incarnation to the three movies helmed by George Clooney and Brad Pitt, the delightfully convoluted heist series has consistently captured the attention of its audiences. Now the latest Ocean’s film is scheduled for release ---- but this one has a twist. Instead of its more standard ensemble cast of witty gentlemen, this movie’s going to be an entirely female-led enterprise.
