10 Things I Hate About You defines life as an adolescent. Hungry with an appetite for romance and an unquenchable thirst for self assurance. Emotions run high and hormones pump like fire through the veins, igniting our physical and psychological transition into adulthood. Twenty years later and 10 Things I Hate About You still holds up majestically! This near-perfect slice of teen romantic comedy will forever be a classic engraved in our hearts for two reasons. Firstly, the message the film conveys being that happiness truly comes from within. Secondly, the pure nostalgia for life in the role as a youngster. As we age like fine wine we recognize that time is of the essence. Events and situations that once held great importance as a teen now crumble. We’ve opened our eyes to the illusion of the over idolized interpretations of what youth should be about versus what it is realistically about. The doubt of self, fear of rejection, and first acts of unadulterated intimacy make a youthful life worth living and in this instance a script worth watching. If 10 Things I Hate About You is high-ranking on your list here are some strategically formulated suggestions any dramedy enthusiasts would call entertaining!

If we're being honest, everybody and their granny has seen a Marvel movie or, at the very least, knows about the MCU.

With millions of adoring fans for every side character, it can be pretty daunting trying to find your special MCU film.

Jessica ConawayPublished 3 years ago in Geeks Get ‘Lost’ In Netflix’s ‘Dark’
WandaVision held captive our collective attention while the audience insisted on creating connections and thinking up theories that weren’t really there.

In fact, in the right director's hand, or should I say eyes, an animated film can take us to places beyond our imaginations.
