It is fantastic news for Zach. I love Gershwin, I love Spielberg so I'm already really looking forward to this. Let's just hope Spielberg does decide to direct and doesn't pass to do one of the other projects he's got lined up.

Oh damn, the Gershwin news already broke here! Serves me right for being slow.

Here's the DHD story on it. Terrific news, great idea for a movie! I'd watch a Gershwin biopic even if Tom Arnold was cast as the lead.

How coincidental. I was just listening to Michael Feinstein's Gershwin album a few days before I heard this film was coming up. I think ZQ could pull off the look of the era, but will we buy his musical talent? Probably. Though, I am looking forward to how he and the director will handle the cancer that killed the man. Mmm, I can smell the angst.

Count me in as a QSpock fan! Oddly enough I'm not that keen on him as Sylar or for that matter as himself. But he sure cleans up nicely as a Vulcan...

Do you not like Zachary Quinto I think he is a great actor.

I find him much more appealing as Spock too. It's a shame he's so hard to look at w/o the Spock ears though!

I think Zach is amanzing actor, and to metion hot! Anyways, I actually ment Zach (I know I've said it many times but I cant help it!) and he was really nice and sweet,and even was hotter in person!

He also has amanzing voice, it just makes you melt! I can't wait to see him as Spock again in the next movie.

What was it like to meet Zachary, in my opinion I would love to meet Chris Pine he would be so incredible to meet what do you think?

Crusher Disciple · February 22 2010, 08:39 AM

I think Zach's a amazingly talented and handsome man. As Spock, however, he just doesn't do it for me. It's like he de-sexifies himself or something.

Tribbles · February 23 2010, 06:57 AM

The fact that Spock's not supposed to be sexy is what does it for me. There he is all prim with his utilitarian haircut and intimidating intelligence, and you just know he's an animal underneath.

He's a challenge-- what must you do to break that stoic exterior? Granted, nuSpock flipped his lid pretty easily, but under normal circumstances (normal being not a day during which his planet was blown up), I assume he's enticingly resistant to any sort of emotional goading.

Eh, I'm a weird girl, what can I say.

startrekrcks · February 23 2010, 09:40 AM

I can't wait to see more of Spock in the sequel because Zachary was great in Star Trek don't you agree

Speaking of Gershwin... I love the song Swanee. I just got myself a gorgeous Judy Garland version of the song (it's also part of the minstrel show segment in Babes on Broadway with Mickey Rooney on banjo--it's amazing, despite some not being able to put it in a historical context). Being a fan of Judy and Mickey, Gershwin ends up getting name-checked or sung constantly in their movies ("I like a Gershwin tune, how about you?").

Swanee is easily my favorite piece of Gershwin's music. And of course, from Gershwin's era, it was the kind of song Al Jolson would sing.

I'm genuinely excited for ZQ's involvement in this film. He has a look that, IMO, makes him an excellent fit for period pieces. The 1920s setting with the musicals, orchestral and operatic music will be gorgeous.

Reply to startrekrcks,
Well I didnt get much time to talk to him, because afterall it was a convetion and other people was waiting for pictures and autographs. But the time I was with him was great. He was really sweet and very much down to earth. He really enjoyed meet fans no matter if it was his fans from his other projects or the movie, he just loves all his fans. And I tell you he really showed how much he loves and apprecaites them. He is one of kind you could say. Anyways, I love to meet Chris Pine if given the chance, because he is my other favorite as well.
