It may not be Summer quite yet, but the arrival of Thor hammers it in: blockbuster season has arrived. Chris Hemsworth plays the title character, the good-looking, gloriously built God of thunder who's in line for the throne in the mythical realm of Asgard. On the night that he's supposed to be inducted as king by his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins), an invasion from the enemy Frost Giants derails Read more

There's a new trailer for Thor, and unlike the first one, this one is going for laughs and more Natalie Portman (whose Oscar nominee status probably has something to do with this newly cut preview). Kat Dennings also gets some more love, helping illustrate that comedy can be found in the story of a God adjusting to modern life on Earth. But it's not all funny bits about Facebook and coffee; Read more

Anthony Hopkins has played some pretty dark characters ("Hello, Clarice . . ."), but for his latest role, he's going to play the man who mastered darkness. Hopkins is in talks to play Alfred Hitchcock in a biopic about the legendary director's life. The film is an adaptation of the book Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, which focuses on the relationship between Hitchcock and his wife Read more

The trailer for Thor received its unveiling over the Summer at Comic-Con, but the full preview is now here for the rest of the world to ogle! The basics: Chris Hemsworth plays the beefy Thunder God Thor, who gets booted from his homeland Asgard by his father (Anthony Hopkins). After plummeting to Earth, he bumps into Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) and her friend Darcy (Kat Dennings). Foster Read more

Boys will be boys, and as Woody Allen's latest You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger proves, they're suckers when it comes to matters of the heart — or well, libido. As a rendition of "When You Wish Upon a Star" plays in the background, we meet Roy (Josh Brolin) and Alfie (Anthony Hopkins). Roy is a one-hit-wonder author who is unhappily married to Alfie's daughter, Sally (Naomi Watts), an art Read more

You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger looks like all of Woody Allen's signature ingredients: neuroses, dry humor, and a delightfully tangled plot. Naomi Watts stars as the wife of Josh Brolin; she's eyeing Antonio Banderas, while her husband is flirting with Freida Pinto. Anthony Hopkins plays Watts's father, and the hilarious Lucy Punch is his younger bride-to-be — much to the chagrin of his Read more

Since werewolves are so hot right now, I wanted Benicio Del Toro's The Wolfman to be the sophisticated, gothic horror entry into the creature-centric movies. It's promising at first — Del Toro's Lawrence is brooding, dark, and a little sexy, and the atmosphere is rich and spooky. The film begins with Lawrence returning to Blackmoor, England, to his childhood home and the father who'd sent him Read more

I learned way more about The Wolfman movie than I needed to know back in July of '08 when I saw a Comic-Con panel with actors Benicio Del Toro and Emily Blunt. At the time I thought the footage looked really cool, and I figured we'd get a real trailer for the movie soon because the release date was April 3, 2009. That Comic-Con panel was, you know, over a year ago, and obviously April came and Read more
