- I'm a big fan of Marvel superhero franchises and I even enjoy the TV series Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. But I have to say I have no interest in its upcoming Ant-Man which is joining the overcrowded field of blockbusters releasing in 2015 (Star Wars! Avengers! Batman!) even though they've cast the very likable Paul Rudd (I Love You Man, This is 40) in the lead. The film will be directed by Edgar Wright, who has been attached to the project for many years now and is due to release on July 31, 2015!
- Speaking of July 31st, it's the birthday of a very famous literary bespectacled wizard who had a great run at the press and the big screen and now Harry's heading to the stage. J.K. Rowling isn't done surprising us as yet. She's co-producing and bringing forth a new play based on Harry Potter's life before he became a wizard and lived with the Dursleys. The play will debut on the West End in 2015. Please keep surprising us like this forever Ms Rowling!

- What can't Joseph Gordon-Levitt do? The actor-writer-director is also turning producer for the big screen yet again (He also produced Looper last year) with author Neil Gaiman's Sandman. He'll also be voicing the character of Jiro Horikoshi in the English language release of Hayao Miyazaki's last feature as director, The Wind Rises. (PS- The resemblance is uncanny!)
- And finally, just for fun, let's revisit the trailer of You've Got Mail which celebrated its 15th anniversary two weeks ago. Remember dial-up? Or typewriters! Or *sob* bookstores! Contrasted with 2013's Her in which a character now falls in love with the OS on his phone, the story of two people falling in love over e-mails sounds so old-fashioned, doesn't it?
