Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth could be a Man in Black If Sony simply must continue the Men in Black franchise, rebooting it with Chris Hemsworth is not the worst idea I’ve heard. (The worst idea was combining MiB with the Jump Street franchise, but that, thankfully, seems to have been abandoned.) It sounds like the new plan is a By Sarah • Mar 02, 2018 09:23 am
Danny McBride #BRAG A couple days ago I wrote about the mysterious new “movie” from Danny McBride, Dundee, purported to be an extension of the Crocodile Dundee franchise. I called bullsh*t and guessed it’s a Super Bowl ad for Australian tourism, and guess what? IT’S A SUPER BOWL AD FOR By Sarah • Jan 25, 2018 12:27 pm
Faux Gossip WHAT IS HAPPENING I have been saying this for days. Ever since a teaser dropped for a new Danny McBride movie, Dundee: The Son of a Legend Returns Home. Yes, that’s right. Danny McBride has a new movie, and it’s a secret Crocodile Dundee sequel—quad-quel, really—that no one knew By Sarah • Jan 23, 2018 03:48 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth in 12 Strong In what is hopefully the last gasp of his typical Hollywood action career, before he fully embraces his destiny as a comedy grunt, Chris Hemsworth stars in 12 Strong, a movie so patriotic and mediocre you’d think it was directed by late-era Clint Eastwood. But it’s not, it’ By Sarah • Jan 19, 2018 03:05 pm
BFFs Someone explained it to Matt Damon Late last year, Matt Damon was promoting Downsizing when the Hollywood Predator Advent Calendar was opening its doors every day to show us a new piece of sh-t. And, well, Matt talked out of his ass. On a couple of occasions. Follow those links if you need a refresher, we By Lainey • Jan 17, 2018 10:08 am
BFFs Chris Hemsworth’s post-Globes gossip I typically refer to Chris Hemsworth in one of three ways: as the Not-As-Hot Hemsworth, the Third (Sometimes Second) Best Chris, or Taika Waititi’s Less Attractive Friend. This week, to me, he’s just the guy who played third wheel to new besties Taika and Angelina Jolie at the By Kathleen • Jan 11, 2018 01:30 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Taika, Angelina, Chris: the Globes best table Stop shouting. Obviously I know that Oprah’s was the best table and they should all have been so lucky to be able to sit at Oprah’s table for the enlightenment. But can we say that there are other “best” tables in different ways? Like the best gossipy table? By Lainey • Jan 08, 2018 12:41 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Thor smash First Thor: Ragnarok got hugely positive reviews—including mine— making it one of the highest-rated superhero movies ever. And then it opened to huge box office, raking in an estimated $121 million over the weekend (and don’t be surprised if the actuals are a little higher). Going into the By Sarah • Nov 06, 2017 08:49 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Thor and Loki on set The interminable Avengers shoot continues, and as Thor: Ragnarok opens in theaters, Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston are on set with RDJ (for what looks like a flashback to the events of The Avengers). Lainey pointed out this will be a fun week at work for Hemsworth, who gets to By Sarah • Nov 03, 2017 10:52 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Taika Waititi delivers the Thor you didn’t know you wanted Thor: Ragnarok begins with a visual gag that’s a little bit weird and a little bit macabre and 100% indicative of what a ride Ragnarok will be. Reimagined by Taika Waititi as a Flash Gordon-inspired sci-fi/fantasy caper, and catering to Chris Hemsworth’s latent comedy skills, Ragnarok is By Sarah • Nov 02, 2017 03:44 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth tries it again After several years of lackluster results trying to be a Hollywood leading man, Chris Hemsworth underwent a reinvention, emerging as a rising comedy star. He stole every scene he had in Ghostbusters, he hosted the sh*t out SNL, he did the “Team Thor” mockumentary with Taika Waititi, and now By Sarah • Oct 19, 2017 02:56 pm
Style Taika at the harbour Taika Waititi, Chris Hemsworth, and Mark Ruffalo have been in Sydney the last couple of days promoting Thor: Ragnarok. We need this palate cleanser right now. You know what’s great about this combination? There’s someone here for everyone. Chris Hemsworth is for your pinup dreams. And, of course, By Lainey • Oct 17, 2017 10:31 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth with a month to go As mentioned in the open, we are exactly a month away from the release of Thor: Ragnarok, expected to be the best Thor of the franchise, under the direction of Taika Waititi. Word is, Chris Hemsworth realised that Thor needed a tone change. And by all accounts he was fully By Lainey • Oct 03, 2017 10:09 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth is a solid dude Taika Waititi’s birthday was last week, and to wish him a happy birthday—and promote Thor: Ragnarok—Chris Hemsworth posted a photo on Instagram, which Maria put in yesterday’s Smutty Social Media, of Taika and him each bussing Sir Anthony Hopkins on the cheek. It’s cute! They’ By Sarah • Aug 22, 2017 03:44 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Japan Thor An international trailer for Thor: Ragnarok was released yesterday. We already knew that Taika Waititi’s Thor will be great. But the Japanese voiceover makes it even better. I don’t understand what’s being said, but I love how it sounds. Like bubble pop comic book goofy. The way By Lainey • Aug 17, 2017 03:41 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Hulk talks, Taika’s style, and Michelle Pfeiffer joins the MCU…what? Every year people are like, Who “won” Comic Con? And every year the answer is: Marvel. No one puts on a better show, and you know they’ve got the magic touch when they don’t actually have to release anything online and they STILL get the most hype.
