Movie Reviews and Previews Does Paul Rudd do it for you? It’s time for the LaineyGossip Hotness Litmus Test! Picture Paul Rudd on top of you. Anything? I got nothing. I know that Paul Rudd does it for many of you and that he has for a long time. I get it. He’s not new. Paul Rudd has been By Kathleen • Apr 11, 2018 01:01 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tony, Cap, Hulk, and …Ant? I’ve never seen Ant-Man, the Paul Rudd version (is there another movie version? I don’t actually want to know), and I barely paid attention to him in Captain America: Civil War so I have no idea what to call him, how to refer to him. Which is why By Lainey • Jan 11, 2018 03:51 pm
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
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 Gwyneth Paltrow is an Avenger again Relax, nerds. I know she’s not an actual Avenger. But she wasn’t in Avengers: Age Of Ultron. Or Avenger 2.5, aka Captain America: Civil War. She’s mentioned before that she didn’t know whether or not she’d play Pepper Potts again. But then she showed By Lainey • Aug 23, 2017 03:45 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
Robert Downey-Jr Marvel’s camp reunion Also at Disney’s D23 over the weekend was a sizeable chunk of the cast of Avengers: Infinity War, including Tom Holland, Benedict Cumberbatch, Sebastian Stan (those three, by the way, got the biggest ovations from the crowd), Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Chadwick Boseman, By Sarah • Jul 17, 2017 10:30 am
BFFs Tony, Bruce…and Stephen? I may have mentioned before how many times I’ve seen the first Avengers movie – a LOT. Three or four times in the theatre, at least 10 times on planes, maybe more. And many, many more times on television. At least 15 times on television. Every time it’s on By Lainey • Jun 27, 2017 12:29 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Science Bros and Strange Fellows Filming for Avengers: Infinity War—and whatever the hell they decide to call Avengers 4—continues in Atlanta. Yesterday, RDJ posted a photo on Twitter that gives us our first look at Benedict Cumberbatch and Benedict Wong, as Doctor Strange and Wong, respectively, revamped for the Avengers.

Quiveration Mark Ruffalo is a turtle My friends and I rarely agree on attractiveness. I always say, for instance, that Duana likes mountain men. Like she’ll always prefer the 45 year old over the 25 year old. I’m with the 25 year old, obviously. One person we can all agree on, however, is Mark By Lainey • Apr 18, 2017 04:16 pm
Scarlett Johansson Joss Whedon’s celebrity friends want you to vote Joss Whedon founded a Super PAC (America’s campaigning rules are Byzantine and insane) called Save The Day and announced it today with a PSA filled with his celebrity friends.

Dumbass Mark Ruffalo can be both I don’t know if you know this, but the internet can be frustrating. No, but seriously. That whole expression ‘this is why we can’t have nice things’ is always on my mind. When Beyoncé drops LEMONADE, there are people who, instead of appreciating it, say “Yeah but white By Duana • Sep 02, 2016 11:16 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Mark Ruffalo in Now You See Me 2 At their best, movies can be wonderful escapes into worlds outside of our own, where, for two hours, we can put real problems aside and exist in a kind of suspended animation. For those hours spent in a darkened room, surrounded by strangers, we’re united by the trials and By Sarah • Jun 14, 2016 11:49 am
Douchebags Keira Knightley’s Douchebag Director My relaxing weekend became rage-filled Saturday, when I read “Keira Knightley’s performance in ‘Begin Again’ criticised by director John Carney”. I know. “Director who?” I’ll tell you, but read the article anyway. I want you to understand exactly what kind of insecure pustule we’re dealing with here. By Duana • May 30, 2016 11:07 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth is not a Movie Star The Huntsman: Winter’s War opened over the weekend to a resounding, “No thanks,” from audiences with an estimated $20 million opening. For comparison, Snow White and the Huntsman opened in 2012 with $56 million.
