1. I knew about Iron Man 3 (going to see it on my b-day, yay!) and Star Trek Into Darkness (gosh, who isn't counting the days?!) but not FAST & FURIOUS 6. HOW IN THE HELL DID I MISS THIS? It opens May 24th.
Apparently I am going to be living at the local movie theater next month?
2. There was a short Q&A with Zoe Saldana in the magazine about Spock/Uhura and her take on it. Fascinating. She says:
Saldana: [...] It's always interesting when you tell the story of how two people come together and when you tell the story of how they end. But of how they're living? That's not as interesting, I guess, even though the middle part is what really matters. There were a lot of things for us to pick from, and there's a lot [in the new film] for them to be tested by. Whether or not they stay together through this? That remains to be seen.
EW: You don't sound very upbeat about their chances.
Saldana: The reality is it doesn't matter what they do when they are young. They're still going to end up, we know, being like the characters in the Gene Roddenberry series. If that's the case, then they're not going to be together forever, but to establish a history between them is beautiful.
Wow. I did not realize she felt that way about the Spock/Uhura relationship. Color me surprised!
3. More Channing Tatum this summer.
4. Will Smith thought up a movie and cast himself and his son Jaden in it? And it's a M. Night Shyamalan movie without a twist ending? Wait, wait, wait. Another scifi film?
5. Brad Pitt is in a zombie movie?
6. Johnny Depp is playing Tonto. You mean, Tonto, as in The Lone Ranger's Tonto? Oh. my. god.
7. Then I learn there's another Wolverine movie coming out, not to mention a Kick Ass 2, another 300 movie with a female warrior leading the action, and the Cassandra Clare book series I haphazardly started to read out of morbid-like curiosity is actually getting its first movie release this summer.
At this point I had to put down the magazine. I think I officially don't know what the heck is going on this summer!
