Hollywood PrivacyWatch: Zachary Quinto Begging Edition!

8:20AM STV | I spotted ZACHARY QUINTO and his friend/date/Vulcan/whatever trying to talk his way into the HBO party after the Golden Globes. He was pleading for entry because his blood sugar was very low, and he was super hungry — but they wouldn’t let him in ’cause he wasn’t on the list. If he was so fucking starving, I’m not sure why he didn’t just make like Billy Bush and beam himself upstairs to the NBC-Universal party to nosh on a plate of greasy veggies, stale pasta, and a slice of beef that had been marinating under a loverly red lamp all night long. Live long and prosper! [Hollywood PrivacyWatch is written by and for Defamer readers; send your sightings to tips@defamer.com.au.] More »

7:02AM Kyle Buchanan | Reality Bites: We’ve been agitating for a while to get an image of Winona Ryder donning her Vulcan ears as Spock’s mum for J.J. Abrams’s new film Star Trek: Underwear, and thanks to /film’s helpful selection of big still frames from the trailer, we got what we wanted — almost. Yes, that’s the first image of Ryder in character, but the “babuschka chic” look covers her…wait, what’s that? Spock’s mum is human, not Vulcan? Then we have no earthly explanation for how the 37-year-old Ryder apparently popped out Spock’s portrayer, 31-year-old Zachary Quinto, at age six. [/film] More »

More Amazing Pictures Released From ‘Star Trek: Muppet Babies’

2:46AM Kyle Buchanan | Yesterday, we spent time dissecting Entertainment Weekly’s new cover devoted to the J.J. Abrams reboot of Star Trek, starring a Marfan’s-afflicted Katie Holmes and the president of Pi Kapp. Today, even more images were released for the film, which comes out next summer but is being heavily promoted now, in October, because the strike-wary studios have fuck-all for you until next year. Let’s have a look, shall we?

Is This Your New Spock From ‘Star Trek,’ Or a Melty-Faced Katie Holmes?

8:40AM Kyle Buchanan | Today, Entertainment Weekly released images from its upcoming issue devoted to J.J. Abrams’s reboot of Star Trek, and featured on the cover were the two clearest looks yet at Zachary Quinto as Spock and Chris Pine as Kirk (what, were Tyler Perry and Winona Ryder busy?). Heroes star Quinto has seemed like a natural to don Leonard Nimoy’s ears ever since the casting was announced, but we must admit that this cover gave us pause. Is it the amped-up drag queen eyebrows? Or is it that Quinto, with his severe bob and vacant expression, resembles a Marfan’s-afflicted Katie Holmes? Let’s do a side-by-side: More »
