Morning Talk: Nothing New Under the Sun

Happy Easter,

Its sunday, Easter Sunday at that, and so there’s really not much going on, movie news wise, this is the first slow news day I’m experiencing and I’m not sure how to handle it. I have no idea what I’m going to talk about today, so I’m just going to ramble a bit. How about we go through all that has happened this past week and appreciate what April has brought? Cool? Cool, cool, cool! Ok then, let’s go through all the news items from April 1 till date and reminisce. 

Watch Whitney Houston ‘Sparkle’ Along with Jordin Sparks, Derek Luke and Mike Epps

The last movie by the legendary Whitney Houston who passed away earlier this year, Sparkle stars Jordin Sparks in the leading role as Sparkle, a young girl with two sisters who form a successful singing group and must deal with the fallout of fame and drugs. Houston plays the mother of the trio and I have the trailer for the movie which features Houston prominently (even though she’s just a supporting character) and teases us with her lovely and powerful voice once more.
