Summer’s in full swing, yet I’ve been held back with a ridiculous cold. I bought some Zzzquil Friday night, but it turns out that it doesn’t even have medicine in it. Thanks a lot, Vicks. Armed with the magical elixir that is Dayquil + Nyquil, I’m feeling a lot better than I was this past week.
How am I going to link this all back to Star Trek Into Darkness, you ask? I’m not. May Fools! Star Trek Into Darkness topped the box office with $70m, doubling the second place Iron Man 3‘s earnings. The Great Gatsby rounds out the Top 3 with $23m. Who’s excited for Fast & Furious 6 this Friday?! Nick and I have an early review coming your way, so prepare yourself. Hint: Prepare your wallets.
