  6. KStew fans, take note: the girl wants another East of Eden pic. goo.gl/aHURu #JoyousGhostofSteinbeck #KristenStewart
  7. Leap of Faith to get (momentary) revival. Failed shows don't die-they just pay 200k for 5 min on Tonys. goo.gl/5AI4y @culturemonster
  8. Brad Pitt gets involved in a Marilyn Monroe biopic. goo.gl/VdYQ9
  9. Love that Avengers is screening at intl space station. Won’t be long before a wily disttribution exec tries to lump in interstellar grosses.
  10. Pundits on Battleship: At least it’s better than John Carter. Pundits on Huntsman: At least it's better than Battleship. #DefiningMoviesDown
  11. Once again, Chinese censors don’t like a Hollywood film—they’ve cut several scenes from MIB 3 goo.gl/DEfl8
  12. Looks like John Isner is in another epic five-setter with a Frenchman. His matches are almost as long as a French meal. #GoFor71
  13. It’s a drama not a thriller so almost unfair to compare MT @Joypress See Isrli show that inspired Homeland? Guardian says it’s more nuanced
  14. Good Dennis Lim piece on Cannes juries’ brand of conservative-minded risk-taking. artforum.com/film/id=31140
  15. Does Bloomberg realize that the absence of sugary drinks will make it a lot harder for people to stay awake during his press conferences?
  16. Director Abbas Kiarostami, a rare non-state lens on modern Iran, says he has no plans to shoot there again. goo.gl/rmwUn
  17. Shepard Fairey just made driving in LA much more interesting RT @OBEYGIANT MCA Billboard Los Angeles goo.gl/fb/Q4qlq h/t @deniseoswald
  18. Bloomberg is one step away from showing up in people's kitchens with a checklist and a Hefty bag. #BigGulp
  19. Kopitar made more moves than an upperclassman at a frat party. #Kings #JerseyBuoyed
  20. Apparently Patrick Roy doesn't like people messing with his legacy. #NotQuickEnough
