Thor movie

If there's one thing fans learned from Lego Batman (and Lego's brief Spider-Man 2 line), it's that blocky looks beautiful on comic book heroes. The disarming cuteness embodied by Denmark's premiere brick dudes and dudettes distills everything it touches into plastic pleasance...

Opening in U.S. cinemas this weekend is Thor, the new Kenneth Branagh film based on the classic Marvel Comics superhero created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. As we mentioned before, Paramount Pictures is pulling out all the stops to promote this latest installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and have started the week with ten minutes of behind-the-scenes footage from the Thor production...

We've been pretty impressed with the licensed Thor movie toys we've seen from Hasbro and other manufacturers so far. How can we not celebrate the fact that kids will have untold options for bludgeoning each other with toy hammers this summer...

Once in awhile a mysterious box of wonderment arrives at your office and before you can tear it open like a raptor a little voice inside stops you and whispers, "Stop! Hammer Time!" Yesterday, thanks to the gracious folks handling Hasbro's PR efforts, I briefly occupied a headspace replete with genie pants before rocketing across Bifröst to the realm of Asgard. Som...

When we first found out about Sega and WayForward's Thor movie tie-in videogame, our expectations were mutated by a weird nostalgia for a simpler era of pixelated action. We love current-gen console tech as much as the next non-luddite, but 1UP's gallery of Nintendo DS sprites from WayForward speaks to our undying love of pixel art with the power of Mjolnir itself...

Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures released this week more than two dozen new still photographs from Thor, the hotly anticipated Kenneth Brannagh film based on the Marvel Comics superhero created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

We can expect an appropriately epic blitz of crazy Thor promotional material as Marvel gears up for the film's May 6 release, but none will be grander than this. Parodying the already brilliant and inescapably cute Volkswagen commercial starring a small child dressed as Darth Vader, frustrated by the fact that his Force powers are only imagined, Marvel's latest bit of hype puts a Thor kid in the s

Do you want a strong, muscled, he-man body like the god of thunder, mighty Thor? If you can't find an uru hammer to transform yourself into an Asgardian powerhouse, you need the June 2011 issue of Men's Fitness UK, which spotlights "The Thor Workout...

Loathe as we (usually) are to throw some straight up marketing in your face, a new Flash-based "interactive guide" to Thor was released this week and it's actually a pretty cool way to learn about the film and its characters, watch video clis and download multimedia like desktop wallpapers...

With Thor's May 6 movie debut just a few more months away, fans from all corners of the nine realms are growing pretty accustomed to having Chris Hemsworth's golden locks all up in their business. Empire added to the welcome promotional storm today by unveiling two new international posters, which you can see in full after the jump...
