Fast & Furious 6 Premiere Up in Smoke: "I'm Getting High," Jokes Michelle Rodriguez
47 minutes ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
The Fast & Furious 6 premiere last night at Universal City Walk in L.A. was smokin'. Literally. The scent of, um, funny cigarettes could be smelled throughout the red carpet area as clouds of smoke billowed above the fans who came out for a free pre-screening concert featuring Wiz Khalifa, 2 Chainz, Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson. "I smell pot," FF6 star Michelle Rodriguez told us. "Don't you smell pot?" We certainly did. "You guys are smoking!" Rodriguez said to the fans. "Is Snoop in there somewhere? Where's Snoop? I smell weed." She laughed, "I'm getting high. It's going in my mouth." Meanwhile, »

Idiot's Guide to the 'Fast and Furious' Movies
7 hours ago | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
It seems like only yesterday that Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) walked up to Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and inexplicably started a sentence with, "So check it out, it's like this," kicking off the first illegal street race in the "Fast and Furious" franchise ten minutes into "The Fast and the Furious" (2001). Alas, that was twelve years and many "the"s ago.
Now, on the eve of this week's debut of the sixth installment (!) of this venerable institution of American cinema, cleverly titled "Fast & Furious 6," we'd like to briefly recap the first five films of the franchise for those of you who may have missed a street robbery or a Ludacris megaphone shout along the way.
Yes, Lettys and Gentle-Doms, it's the Idiot's Guide to the "Fast and Furious" movies. Start your engines.

Lights, cameras, and fast cars. The stars of "Fast & Furious 6" were ready to party last night at the movie's premiere in L.A. VIn Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Cris "Ludacris" Bridges, and Tyrese Gibson were all on hand to celebrate the latest "Fast" installment, and celebrate they did. Actors/musicians Gibson and Ludacris not only walked the red carpet, they performed at the event, along with rapper Wiz Khalifa. But they weren't the only cast members who put on a show -- Diesel joined them on-stage, while Rodriguez deejayed at the after-party. In the latest adrenaline-pumping "Fast" installment, Agent Hobbs (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) enlists Dom (Diesel) and his team to bring a rival gang, led by Owen Shaw (Luke Evans), to justice in exchange for a blank slate (aka no criminal record). Sounds like a good deal! Check out the photos below. "Fast & Furious 6" speeds into theaters May 24. »

'I Can't Play A Slut In Front Of Millions Of People'
11 hours ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Michelle Rodriguez makes her big return to the "Fast and Furious" franchise with the release of "Fast Six," hitting theaters on May 24. Rodriguez's character Letty Ortiz was thought to be dead after the fourth film in the series, but her resurrection was alluded to in "Fast Five" and comes to pass in "Fast & Furious Six."
The role has been lucrative for Rodriguez, landing her in multiple "Fast and Furious" installments and aiding in the growth of her career. It was, however, a part that she was slightly apprehensive about at first.
"Oh my god, I was crying on the set," Rodriguez said in an interview with Vulture. "I was like, “Look, dude, I love you guys, I really want to be a part of this, but I can’t play a slut in front of millions of people around the world.” I’d rather go back to Jersey City, doing my small little indie movies. »

Movie Review - Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
19 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Fast & Furious 6, 2013.
Directed by Justin Lin.
Starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Luke Evans, Michelle Rodriguez, Elsa Pataky, Jordana Brewster, and Gina Carano.
Synopsis:
The gang of car thieves and illegal street racers are brought out of retirement to face a global menace...and track down a long-lost member.
This sixth (yes sixth) entry in the ever-increasingly popular Fast & Furious series is too loud, too stupid, and too nonsensical to be judged as anything other than, well, a Fast & Furious film. It straddles the lines between fun and utter garbage from the first minute to the last, but somehow, through the belief in its own convictions, Fast & Furious 6 end up being just about more fun than dumb. It may be 51% against 49% but a good time is there to be had.
The old adage of “leave your brain at the door” to enjoy a big budget film is not one »

‘The Voice’: Shakira’s Confidence Is Not Enough To Save [Spoiler]
22 hours ago | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »
It was a night full of amazing performances on ‘The Voice,’ and it all started with an emotional tribute to the victims who suffered in Oklahoma.
Blake Shelton and wife Miranda Lambert opened The Voice on May 21, putting on a heartfelt performance in honor of the horrific tragedy that occurred in Moore, Okla.
‘The Voice’ Pays Tribute To Oklahoma Tragedy
On May 20, Blake explained how close to his heart the tragedy was, as Okla. is his home state. So it was extremely meaningful when he and Miranda took the stage to perform “Over You,” a song the couple wrote together about the death of Blake’s brother.
Shakira and Usher also performed on the results show. Shakira and her team performed “Stand By You.” However, we couldn’t stop looking at what she was standing in — a pair of super sexy glittery boots.

'The Voice' results: The Top 10 sheds two - Who went home?
22 hours ago | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
On Tuesday's (May 21) episode of "The Voice," the Top 10 shed a little dead weight, with two more artists let go based on America's vote. It could've been a dicey night for coaches Usher and Shakira, who each only had two singers left in the game at the top of the hour. Would the evening end with a coach's team empty? Or might Adam Levine and Blake Shelton lose one of their artists?
First, a little music: Blake takes the stage with wife Miranda Lambert to perform a touching tribute to the Oklahoma tornado victims. After that, Shakira takes the stage with her team on "I'll Stand By You." This seems to continue the theme of honoring those who've been touched by tragedy in Oklahoma this week. It's wonderful take on the song, with Sasha Allen sounding particularly great.
Oh, look it's Michelle Rodriguez and Vin Diesel. They're taking the whole »

DreamWorks Animation has released a new international UK trailer for their racing snail adventure film Turbo. The trailer features a lot more footage from the movie and gives us a more detailed look at the story they are telling. It looks like a fun flick that both kids and adults will enjoy.
The story follows "an underdog snail who kicks into overdrive when he miraculously attains the power of super-speed. But after making fast friends with a crew of streetwise, tricked-out es-car-goes, Turbo learns that no one succeeds on their own. So he puts his heart and shell on the line to help his pals achieve their dreams, before Turbo-charging his own impossible dream: winning the Indy 500."
It's got a great all-star voice cast that includes Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena, Luis Guzmán, Bill Hader, Richard Jenkins, Ken Jeong, Michelle Rodriguez, Maya Rudolph, Ben Schwartz, Kurtwood Smith, Snoop Dogg, »

Fast 6’s Michelle Rodriguez on Coming Back From the Dead and the Women of the Franchise
21 May 2013 1:15 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
With a franchise as long-running as The Fast and the Furious, it’s not unusual to see characters come and go from film to film — unless they’ve been killed off. Michelle Rodriguez’s character, Letty Ortiz, seemingly perished at the end of the series’ fourth installment, but that didn't stop the Fast & Furious 6 team from bringing her back from beyond the veil. Vulture recently got on the phone with the actress, who’s also appeared in Avatar and on Lost, to talk about what it’s like to be resurrected, why she won't sing karaoke with Vin Diesel, and the women of the franchise.When you first took on the role of Letty, did you imagine the series turning into something so huge?Hell, no. Are you kidding me? First one, I just couldn’t believe there was going to be a movie that had this kind of stuff happening. »

Fast & Furious 6 Review: An Incredibly Dumb Action Behemoth
21 May 2013 4:59 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
At one critical point in Fast & Furious 6, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, caught in a kind of bizarro world walk and talk (think The West Wing) and discussing the movie’s criminal syndicate, tells Mma fighter Gina Carano: “I want to come down on them like the walls of Jericho.” If the idea of that moment occurring prompts a slight grin to form on your face, chances are that the sixth entry in this newly revitalised car crash franchise will bring you a relative amount of joy. Just make sure you leave your Iq at the door.
Fast & Furious 6 is, without a doubt, one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen. The set-pieces, straight from a comic book, are absurd in every conceivable way: loud, rendered with (sometimes incomprehensible) CGI, they crash all over the screen in explosions of sparks and scratched metallic paint-jobs. The jokes, »

Watch: International Trailer for 'Turbo' Highlights Slow Snail World
20 May 2013 3:20 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
In what is basically a superhero movie repurposed for a mollusk, DreamWorks Animation has Turbo coming this summer. Ryan Reynolds voices the snail who finds himself with the gift of super speed after a chance encounter with some nitrous fuel liquid. In this new international trailer, we get an entertaining glimpse into the mundane lives of the slow-moving snails, and also get introduced into some of the other snails in the film voiced by Samuel L. Jackson, Bill Hader, Richard Jenkins, Michelle Rodriguez and more. This looks like it could be the second hit for Dwa after The Croods earlier this year. Watch now! Here's the new international trailer for DreamWorks Animation's Turbo from MSN UK (via ComingSoon): Turbo is directed by David Soren (who went from storyboard artist, to head of story, to directing the Merry Madagascar Christmas special) working from a script he co-wrote with Shrek Forever After scribe Darren Lemke. »

New Trailer for DreamWorks’ Turbo with Ryan Reynolds
20 May 2013 8:37 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Having found a big family hit in The Croods this spring, DreamWorks will be back on the big screen in the summer season with another animated blockbuster bound to be a family-favourite in Turbo.
The Croods took north of half a billion dollars at the box office, which was a big win for the studio coming off the back of Rise of the Guardians’ unfortunate loss last year, and I for one can’t wait to see what they have in store for us with Turbo.
The last we saw of the film was two great full-length trailers back in March, right around the time the studio were gearing up for The Croods. And now they’ve debuted another great UK trailer, featuring some great new footage.
From the makers of Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda, Turbo is a high-velocity 3D comedy about an underdog snail who kicks into overdrive »
