Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior, is sent down to Earth has punishment for reigniting a reckless war. But after a dangerous villain from his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth, the hammer-wielding Thor will learn what it takes to be a true hero in order to save mankind.

Expected to hit the big screen sometime next year here is the first image from the movie:

Having survived death, Jonah’s violent history is steeped in myth and legend, and has left him with one foot in the natural world and one on the ‘other side.’

His only human connection is with Leila (Megan Fox), whose life in a brothel has left her with scars of her own.

First Jane Eyre Image

It seems that the movie industry isn’t happy unless they are filming a remake! And it’s classic jane Eyre that is once again being produced for the big screen.

Now I have to admit that I’m a huge fan of the book but haven’t we seen this adaptation a hundred times? What is wrong with producing an original screenplay?

Anyway rant over. Tye movie brings together an interesting cast of Mia Wasikowska, Michael Fassbender, Jamie Bell, Judi Dench, Holliday Grainger and Sally Hawkins.

In the film Jane Eyre (Wasikowska) flees Thornfield House, where she works as a governess for wealthy Edward Rochester (Fassbender). The isolated and imposing residence – and Mr. Rochester’s coldness – have sorely tested the young woman’s resilience, forged years earlier when she was orphaned.

As Jane reflects upon her past and recovers her natural curiosity, she will return to Mr. Rochester – and the terrible secret that he is hiding…

Ruth’s Friday Fallout

So, it looks as if Gordon Brown has really slammed the last nail into the coffin of his Labour Prime Ministerial election campaign. He’s climbed to the top of a bell tower in his best urban camouflage, fixed his sniper rifle together and shot his campaign in the face. And himself, in the foot.

Speaking of acting like a divvy, N-Dubz star Dappy hasn’t been doing himself any favours has he? considering he doesn’t know when to keep his potty mouth shut. When telling GMTV viewers about snorting mephedrone he decided to announce; ‘You should try anything once.’ Right… great role model Dapster.
