Chris Hemsworth Wants to Do More Thor Movies After Avengers 4
BY LAURA PRUDOM Chris Hemsworth has only been playing Marvel's mighty Thor for seven years, but in that short span, he's reprised the character just as many times (or more, if you count director Taika Waititi's hilarious Team Thor short films) -- having just wrapped filming on Joe and Anthony Russo's Avengers: Infinity War and its untitled follow-up, Avengers 4.

The entire history of Black Mirror, as told by its stars
Charlie Brooker said the idea for Black Mirror’s “Be Right Back” was sparked by two things: the first was when was he was trying to clear space on his phone (in the days when you had limited storage) and he came across a contact for a friend who had passed away. He found himself caught in a strange moment of sadness and guilt at having to delete the person’s number off his mobile phone – even though he would never need it again.

Images: A Collection Of Early Alien: Covenant Concept Art From 2014
This is a collection of early Alien: Covenant concept art from 2014, created by concept artist Khang Lee. Back in 2014, the film was still titled Prometheus 2. In September 2015, the title was changed and the direction of the movie shifted to what we eventually saw in the theaters. AVPGalaxy.net was able to confirm that Lee did work in the art department during 2014, with many of these pieces dated 2014. It would appear that this concept art gives us a little bit of an idea of what they were initially planning for Prometheus 2.

Quentin Tarantino is developing a Star Trek movie
We live in a very bizarre world, and these days it’s usually scary bizarre instead of just weird bizarre, but entertainment news has finally swung back to weird bizarre with the announcement that Quentin Tarantino is developing a Star Trek movie. This comes from Deadline, which says Tarantino sold Paramount on a “great idea” that he had for a Star Trek movie, and the studio is now assembling a writers room that will try to turn his great idea into an actual movie. Assuming that works out well enough, Tarantino might even stick around to direct.

Actually, Adam Sandler Is a Genius
With Noah Baumbach’s The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected), Adam Sandler has given another performance which makes you ask: wait, is Adam Sandler actually brilliant? A low-brow comedy ingénue who skyrocketed to blockbuster success with a string of formulaic family comedies, Sandler’s brand eventually turned self-cannibalistic, tedious, and infuriating—yet, remained profitable. In the shadow of the Happy Madison factory, however, is a Wonka-like figure whose abilities are misunderstood.
