Girl Power Rumored For Thor 2

Oh my God I hope this bit of Hollywood speculation comes true. It seems Marvel Studios wants Patty Jenkins to direct Thor 2. Can I get an Amen and a Hallejulah? Dead Line reports that Marvel is in serious talks with the director, who recently helmed the epic AMC miniseries, The Killing. She is probably best known for directing Charlize Theron to her Oscar as serial killer Aileen Wuornos in 2003's Monster.

Thor: God of Thunder Rocks My World

Now that the entire planet has reviewed Thor, it's my turn. Thor with his mighty hammer is a childhood favorite, so I did a happy dance when I found out Kenneth Branagh was to direct the live action film. The god of my Shakespearean idolatry, I knew he would do justice to the son of Odin. And I was right. For the first time since I started writing these snarky reviews, I have found a film I really liked. Cue Beethoven's Ode to Joy.
