There’s something about the idea of a Thor movie that is starting to interest me. Maybe it’s the fact that I don’t know much about Thor, and don’t see how they’ll make him fit into the realistic movie universe they are crafting with the Iron Man movies.

The first pic of Chris Hemsworth as Thor was released today, and I kinda dig it. I’d love to see some hammer and/or helmet action, but this will do for now. I guess we’ll find out in 2011 how Captain Kirk’s daddy does as the god of thunder.

Warner Bros. made their fair share of feature length mashups using classic Looney Tunes cartoons and some new filler animation in between. Bugs Bunny’s Easter Funnies is exactly that, a collection of shorts weaved into a new sublot where Bugs has to fill in for the Easter Bunny when he falls ill. I’m a huge fan of the Looney Tunes, and I don’t mind these long-form specials because it lets me sit back and watch a good hour’s worth of shorts all at once.

I haven’t posted anything about the Captain America casting frenzy because it seemed like everyday the shortlist changed. SlashFilm is reporting that Marvel has officially hired Chris Evans to play the star-spangled Avenger in a 9 movie deal.

Evans of course played Johnny Storm in the not-so-awesome Fantastic Four movies, as well as Casey Jones in the CGI TMNT movie. Fox is hanging onto that license with a kung-fu grip for as long as they can (think reboot), so I don’t think that will interfere with Marvels red, white, and blue plans for him, but we’ll see.

I’m pretty exited about a period Captain America movie, so we’ll see how well they pull it off.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, the horrible thumbnail image features the awesome Captain America Hoodie from 80sTees.com.

Out now from Warner Bros. is the great film Where The Wild Things Are on DVD and Blu-ray. I absolutely love this movie. I think it’s a great representation of being a kid, and I’m so glad to be able to own it so I can watch it whenever I want now.

There hasn’t been a whole lot of news from the Disney/Marvel acquisition front yet, until now. Some enterprising fanboys discovered that one of Disney’s recent domain name purchases was ANT-MAN-THE-MOVIE.COM. We already knew that Disney has to keep their hands off the Marvel film franchises already in development with other studios, so they’re obviously frantically flipping through the pages looking for undeveloped characters.

Lets just hope that they stick with the Edgar Wright version of Ant-Man.
