Guess what leaked earlier today? Yep, 'twas an extra from Thor: The Dark World featuring the ~process shots of the scene between Thor and Loki in the hallway. You know, with the shapeshifting. And Tom Hiddleston in the Captain America costume. THAT ONE.

CHECK IT OUT before it gets pulled.

There's also the tiniest tidbit of his screen test for ( Read more... )

Sooooo Johnny Weir just tweeted "I understand Loki" which reminded me that the Thor fandom still doesn't seem to have an ice skating rom com AU. You know, the one in which a brilliant, snarky, delicate-featured Frost Giant prince has to teach the strong, earnest, clumsy Asgardian the importance of TOE PICK, because blah blah interplanetary treaty ( Read more... )

Augh, this 3-day headache is a bitch on wheels. So I'm keeping this short and sharing a VERY IMPORTANT GIF SET of Tom Hiddleston (as Adam in Only Lovers Left Alive) eating a blood popsicle. Which is all good, because 1) his character is a vampire, and 2) HE IS LICKING. A. POPSICLE. AND HE LOOKS LIKE A HEDONISTIC POST-PUNK LOKI. Bring me alllllll ( Read more... )

I saw the early screening of Thor: The Dark World last Thursday night, before it officially opened in the US, and - thanks to RL craziness, mostly - managed not to scream any spoilers from the rooftops out of dire need to talk about it. But since a few of you have seen it by now...

( HEY IT'S LOKI: THE SEQUEL AND I AM TOTALLY HERE FOR IT )

ADKHF;KSHD;FKHSD;JK;SKLDF PLEASE OH PLEASE KEEP PLAYING BITCHY CHARACTERS YOU IMMACULATE PERSON YOU

....ahem.

In case you haven't seen the trailer for the new Jim Jarmusch movie, Only Lovers Left Alive, fair warning that the next-to-last shot is sort of artistically NSFW (but oh, worth it). It stars Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston as a pair of ( Read more... )

Numbered post! Because I'm getting over a bug, my planned socializing-with-friends fun Saturday turned into a stay-at-home-and-nap-a-lot Saturday, and I feel barely coherent. (Could be worse! I could be working. Gah.)

ANYWAY.

1. Current count of Avengers viewings: 5. Can't wait to see it again. I keep finding new favorite moments, such as ( clickety-click... )

(but that's because I want a VERY SPECIFIC one! of a certain letter "A" in a scene toward the very end of the movie! You know the one.)

AHEM.

I have now seen The Avengers three times (once 3 weeks ago, twice on Thursday night/Friday evening) and I think - I THINK - I can attempt to write some thoughts down. Which is to say, SPOILERS FOR ( Read more... )

SO. You know how in Asgard, the guy who basically runs the place keeps having these conveniently timed naps? I mean, that's gotta be weird. The All-Father figure, the king of the realm, just sort of - nods off from time to time like a narcoleptic camel. And that's totally FUNNY, you guys! You know it's the one thing about Odin that Asgardians from ( Read more... )

...for a select few people, and thanks to a friend, I got to be one of them! Meaning: I HAVE SEEN THE AVENGERS AND SOMEHOW, MIRACULOUSLY, HAVEN'T YET EXPLODED FROM SHEER JOY. You guys, it's really fucking good! I can't wait to see it again!!! Aaaaand that's all I'm going to let myself say because anything else might be considered spoilery ( Read more... )

If you're too busy to read my thoughts on Terrence Davies' The Deep Blue Sea, let me just say: it is exquisitely beautiful and deeply intimate, and I recommend checking it out in a theater if possible.

But if you have some time... ( here's the longer version. )
