Have you ever heard people refer to themselves as Scorpios or Virgos? And you wondered to yourself, what in God’s name are they talking about? Well, these are zodiac signs. Zodiac signs go way back thousands of years to Babylonian Astronomers. The zodiac soon spread to other cultures like the ancient Greeks and Romans. Nowadays, the zodiac is mainly associated with mystic astrology as opposed to scientific astronomy. Many of the signs come from identifiable constellations which fall in their specific celestial division of the zodiac.
If you are a true believer in astrology, you believe that star signs can tell a lot about a person. It can tell the type of personality you have as well as your likes, dislikes, how you communicate and your pet peeves. There are even people out there that will not date someone who isn't a good match for their zodiac sign. They strictly forbid it saying that it will never work if they get together.

Choose a Sci-Fi film
Monsters, aliens, time machines, spaceships, robots and the list goes on. There is only one genre that allows us to enjoy the things and places that other genres won’t touch and that is Science Fiction. By engaging in the what-ifs and either farfetched or close to home Sci-Fi movies can challenge assumptions that would otherwise go unexamined.
Choose a Drama
Who doesn’t like drama? This genre, especially period drama is quite popular and has a huge audience. Gone with the Wind for instance when this film premiered in 1939 it was huge both financially and culturally. Gone with the Wind remains the highest grossing film (when adjusted for inflation) of all time.
Pick a musical

Choose the Silent film you would most likely watch
A silent film is basically a film that has no synchronized recorded sound, especially no spoken dialogue. In silent films, dialogue is transmitted through muted gestures, title cards and/or mimes. Many silent films created in the 19th and 20th century no longer exist. It is estimated that approximately 70% of American silent films are lost.
Pick your favorite Western flick
Audiences around the word at one time admired Western films (cowboys specifically). But nowadays, there seems to be zero cowboy movies being produced. So the question stands “Where have all the cowboy films gone?” While some cowboy movies can be enjoyed on Netflix and the likes of it, we are not seeing any major productions for them anymore.
Choose your favorite Black and White film
Before the shift to color, people used to enjoy the simplicity of black and white movies and programs. It was their reality. Black and white films allowed one’s imagination to color in the pictures. They permitted the viewer to be the color advisor no matter how random the choices might be.
