Tom Hiddleston as Loki in Thor
The prospective remake of 1994’s The Crow (itself an adaptation of the 1989 graphic novel by James O’Barr) has certainly gone through a number of leading man iterations over the past three years—in 2010, it was reported that Mark Wahlberg was in talks to star as the undead hero of the story, and then news broke that he wasn’t.  In 2011, it was Bradley...

Tom Hiddleston as Loki in Thor
The saying goes that your heroes are only as good as your villain, so perhaps this is good news—according to actor Tom Hiddleston, it’s looking less and less likely that Thor and The Avengers villain Loki will be making a return appearance in The Avengers 2.  Not to offend The Avengers fans out there, but Loki wasn’t the most terribly...

midnightinparis5-3-11
Woody Allen's highly mysterious (and rightfully so) film Midnight in Paris has made its way back from Cannes and will be appearing in theaters in America this weekend. For me, this is one of my favorite Woody Allen films in a long time. It's not necessarily what you would expect from Allen, though it does follow certain patterns we've come to know from him and one can...

Thor: Review

Thor Theatrical Trailer
Thor may be the trickiest of the big Marvel characters to adapt. Both a Norse God, and an extra-terrestrial being, Thor doesn't have the "normal person thrust into superpowers" hook - which is both good and bad. And to that end Thor is not really an origin tale, so much as a learning experience for the main character. There's a lot to do here, on top of director Kenneth Branagh putting a big...
