Remembering the 5th with a little V...


Whether you're wearing your Guy Fawkes' inspired mask, reading, or watching a copy of V for Vendetta, today is indeed the 5th of November. With that in mind, it's time to reminisce about this stellar dystopian future tale that was originally released as a comic book series/ graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. To commemorate the occasion, here's a You Tube video I found that compiles a collection of clips and scenes from the film adaptation directed by the Wachowski Bros., which featured Hugo Weaving as the elusive freedom fighter vigilante V and Natalie Portman as Evey, released 5 years ago and remains one of the more obscure yet classic movies to this day.


In this tribute video, V goes on to say those epic lines that  many have recited to remember this day, with the BGM "Evey Reborn" playing in the background...



Remember, Remember the 5th of November

"Remember, Remember the 5th of November The Gun powder, Teason and Plot I know of no reason why the gun powder treason should ever be forgot." - V from V for Vendetta

The long wait for a director for Thor 2 finally over.


Via a post in Superherohype, it's now confirmed that Patty Jenkins, who directed the Charlize Theron starring movie "Monster" and the pilot episode of AMC TV series "The Killing", has been selected to direct the second movie starring Chris Hemsworth as the titular Norse God of Thunder, based on the Marvel Comics' hero of the same name. Jenkins will succeed Kenneth Branagh, who directed the first film, and it's also been confirmed that Natalie Portman and Tom Hiddleston will also return alongside Hemsworth as Jane Foster and Loki respectively.

Movie Review: Black Swan

Darren Aronofsky's "Black Swan" really surprised me, and I wasn't expecting to get blown away by it well until I was already in the middle of the movie where its ugly and intense "psychological drama" head popped right into the picture. To be fair, I've heard so many praises and great things about this movie beforehand, and that was like two months ago when the movie started showing in US theaters officially. I simply could not relate with why people found it so good, and I only had the trailer to guide me through as to what the premise was all about, showing a struggling ballet dancer played by Natalie Portman succumb to the pressures inside and outside of the coveted ballet performance she is aiming to highlight and star on - "Swan Lake". Heck, I wasn't even aware that Mila Kunis and Winona Ryder were co-starring on the film, and now that I've seen it via the long awaited local press screening, I can finally give my two cents worth on possibly one of the best psycho-art films I've ever gotten the chance to sit through and see to completion.

Movie: Black Swan
Starring: Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel, Winona Ryder
Directed By: Darren Aronofsky

The Thunder God's Love Is Natalie Portman!

Seems the comic book movie industry is chugging in more mega stars to their cause!



With the announcements of Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston playing Thor and Loki respectively, another big name can be added to the cast of the upcoming live-action film based on Marvel's God Of Thunder - Natalie Portman!



Newsarama broke the big news: In the Kenneth Branagh directed film, she'll be playing Jane Foster, a nurse who becomes the love interest of Thor when he travels and becomes guardian of the human realm. Thor's relationship with Foster forms one of the memorable themes of the book, and in some ways compares to the relationship between Superman and Lois Lane.



This comes as a newsworthy announcement - Portman is a talented actress who has proven several times that she can take her acting abilities to the next level. Her most notable roles would be as Padme Amidala, the tragic bride of Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, and as Evey Hammond in V For Vendetta. The latter film tested her dedication to her craft when they shaved off her head as part of the story, which caused quite a stir for a while. Still, Natalie didn't mind and acted in what is considered to be one of her best roles thus far in her career. Next to her beautiful looks, she has the wit to match her tenacity as an actor, and with a combination like that, I think the role of Jane Foster is in good hands.

In a bit of trivia, Portman's latest film venture, BROTHERS, has her starring alongside Jake "Prince Of Persia" Gylenhaal and Tobey "Spider-Man" Maguire. Perfect timing for her to be included in a Marvel movie!
