Nice to see Moonrise Kingdom doing well for an inderpendent feature it also did decent in the UK.
Saw the trailer for Magic Mike yesterday looks awful.

Moonrise Kingdom was very much a return to the form of the likes of the Royal Teneabuams and Rushmore for Wes Anderson without quite reaching the heights of those films, it is one of the inderpendent hightlights of the year so far. Snow White featured too much Stewart and not enough Theron. It was visually good, but boring and empity far too much of the time.
In the coming weeks I plan to catch up on MIB3 and Prometheus.
