Thor-ing Around- THOR: THE DARK WORLD
Here’s what I want, said Thor: The Dark World cinematographer Kramer Morgenthau: I want a real slow tilt up Hemsworth’s abs. I want the Asgardian light to be especially slanty and dramatic in this little gazebo here and I want Hemmy’s pecs to look absolutely humongous. Got that? I mean I want those suckers to look huge. And I don’t care if this body shot has nothing to do with the story. That’s irrelevant. This is Hemmy we’re talking about. So I want water from the sieve — yes, of course there’ll be a sieve — to drip slowly down his beautiful cosmo-Nordic hair and face, over the mountainous (again,…

12 Pubs: THE WORLD’S END (Let’s Boo Boo)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor There are so many themes which should be explored in this post: lost youth, failure, the nature of the human race and the bonds of friendship. But I’m spent. I’ve written and edited a lot this week and I’m really trying to focus on getting appropriate sponsors to advertise on the site! Check out Tinsel & Tine’s Rate Sheet and Google Analytics, if you are or know someone looking to get great exposure on a quality blog, please pass the links along 🙂 Just think of it as my ticket to Tribeca & Sundance in 2014! The World’s End reunites Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and…

Candi’s Corner: The Immortal Intruments: City of Bones
Keeping the Trend of Strong Females Going: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones Review by Candice Cordelia Ever since Twilight made its entree into movie theaters six years ago, audiences, especially of the female variety, have been seeking stronger female characters on film.

Katniss, without superpowers, used her common sense and intelligence to best her competition under a totalitarian government. The second installment of The Hunger Games movie trilogy, Catching Fire, won’t be out until November,…

Chopsticks straight up in bowl = death: THE WOLVERINE
Thankfully, all you really have to know to watch Hugh Jackman once again take on the role of Marvel Entertainment's ultimate anti-social hero - The Wolverine - is the basics. He's indestructible because of the Adamantium alloy that covers his insides from head to toe; and that he had it bad for the telepathic and telekinetic mutant Jean Grey (Famke Janssen), who is presently dead until she rises again as The Phoenix.

Trekkie Soup: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS
Had a blast seeing Star Trek Into Darkness last night! Unlike most of the 3D movies I’ve seen, this one makes galactic good use of the technology! But I’m not a Trekkie. I’m a fan of the original series, meaning if I’m channel surfing aimlessly on a Saturday and come across William Shatner stuffed into his uniform, seducing some blue creature, I get a little thrill and stop to watch. So no movie review here, you’ll find plenty of other sites with plenty to say, I just thought I’d throw out some random Star Trek frivolity: Like did you know William Shatner does wine tastings on his website? AND…
