Hammer Time It seems like just yesterday I was at Comic-Con with my betrothed admiring the gargantuan, gilded set of Thorand tomorrow the wait will be over – the film opens and I’ll finally be able to see that set in action, hopefully with Chris Hemsworth’s fine tush walking all over it.  The movie also stars Anthony Hopkins who rocks a golden eye patch that evokes my love for pirates, which, frankly, I appreciate.  Rounding out the cast is my gal pal Natalie Portman but that shouldn’t be much of a surprise since she has been in every film released this year.  Literally every film; that statement is not an exaggeration at all. I hate to admit this, and if anyone dares bring it up later I’ll claim that the Fan Boy spirit briefly possessed me, but I’m actually a sucker for all things Marvel.  I love the idea of heroes and everything they symbolize.  Thor is an especially amazing character because once his eye-patch-wearing dad casts him down to Earth he is forced to become a great man and can then become a great hero.  His journey is kind of inspirational in a comicy-way.   The story of Thor really reminds me of Greek mythology too, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves.  I can feel my inner nerd busting out of my cool shell and I need to rein it in.  So, to recap: the film comes out tomorrow but in the meantime you must – simply MUST – look at our movie page and see the slew of extras we have.  Star interviews from the premier’s red carpet, press junket highlights, movie clips, behind the scenes peeks into the making of the movie and… the one and only STAN LEE, also known as the man I would dump my boyfriend like a bad habit for.  Yeah, it would be a May-December type of relationship but whatever – I’ve had a thing for Stan since his cameo in Mallrats circa 1995.  Sick, I know. One final note – how fast do you think you could assemble an entire room filled with IKEA furniture if you had Thor’s hammer?  Just sayin’. L.T.
