Movie News - Poster Reveal: Jupiter Ascending

I've been looking forward to this movie for awhile now, so I'm super excited about the new movie posters that were released today.  Here's the one featuring Channing Tatum...



July can't get here soon enough!  I love the futuristic look and style of the poster itself, and from the trailers I've seen it seems to fit the movie well.  And those ears...

What do you think of the poster?

Other movies I'm looking forward to:
Noah
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Transcendence
Maleficent
Edge of Tomorrow
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

What movies are you looking forward to?

Teaser Tuesday - Words of Radiance, by Brandon Sanderson

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just:
* Grab your current read
* Open to a random page
* Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
* BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
* Share the title and author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their To Be Read (TBR) Lists if they like your teasers!

I am currently reading Words of Radiance, by Brandon Sanderson.  This is a huge novel, and it will probably take me awhile to get through, which means we'll get lots of Teasers out of it!  In this Tease, Kaladin muses about his new job of protecting highprince Dalinar...

The Tease:

"Sometimes, though, it seemed like his job was impossible to do well.  During the highstorm last week, someone had again sneaked into Dalinar's rooms, scrawling a second number on the wall.  Counting it down, it pointed to the same date a little over a month away."

What's your Tease?

This week I began reading Words of Radiance, by Brandon Sanderson.  This is a huge novel, and it will probably take me awhile to get through, which means we'll get lots of Teasers out of it!

The Tease:

"Dalinar turned from the window finally, walking to the others, and rested his hand on Navani's shoulder.  "We're going to find a way to do this, or we're going to destroy the kingdom in the process.  I won't suffer this charade any longer."
