HULK CUDDLE! We here at Top Hat Sasquatch aren’t afraid to embrace our inner cuteness, and we appreciate it when our geek toys and collectibles aren’t either. That seems to be the case with these Marvel Comics Plushies from Funko, and I want them all.

Plushie Hulk and Thor are my favorites, at least until they get around to making Plushie Deadpool and Plushie Punisher. What about you? Name the Marvel character you think would make the best/weirdest Plushie in the comments.

Happy Monday! Nothing starts a geek week off like a new photo from a superhero movie and an unsubstantiated supposedly-legit piece of concept art to go with it. Joe Johnston’s Captain America movie comes out in July and we should be getting close to the first teaser trailer, but for now we’ll have to cope with a new image of Huge Weaving holding the Cosmic Cube.

Along with Thor, I’m very excited about this movie, but my biggest concerns are with the choice of directors. If this is Johnston’s masterpiece we should be alright, but if it’s anything close to his typical film than it’s in the wrong hands. Regardless, Huge Weaving was an inspired choice to play Red Skull. I may have no idea what the Cosmic Cube is (let me know in the comments), but it’s a new image from the movie and that’s good enough for me.

Yesterday we got the first sneak peek at the official Thor poster, and today the trailer is upon us in all it’s glory. It’s pretty much the same trailer they showed at SDCC, but everything looks more polished and there is a bit of new material. I think it looks very promising, but what do you think?

It’s really nothing we haven’t seen yet visually, but it is the first official Thor poster. It should be in theaters this weekend, and the first trailer will probably be before Tron: Legacy (which John and I get to see early, expect our reviews early next week).

I’m officially pumped about Thor and Captain America. What about you?

On the heels of SDCC 2010, we’re already getting a lot of sneak peeks at the geeky goodness that will be flaunted at this year’s convention. Marvel’s upcoming Thor movie by Kenneth Branagh is one I’m very interested in. Not because I’m a huge Thor aficionado, but because I’m curious as to how they will pull it off and make it look like a part of the modern Marvel movie universe. I’ve been pretty impressed with the glimpses we’ve had of Thor so far, and now we get our first look at Anthony Hopkins as Odin and Tom Hiddleston as Loki.

I like the direction they’re taking with these costumes, and I can’t wait to see the sets and production design that will accompany them.
