New Image Of The Buffed Out Thor When Kenneth Branagh walked through the doors of Marvel Studios to discuss directing Thor, executives greeted the Brit with two questions. The first was a polite "How are you doing?" The second was whether Branagh had ever been to Comic-Con. "I think they were warning me," says Branagh, known more for his adaptations of Shakespeare than superhero stories. "They said to brace myself, that I'd never seen anything like it." Not unless Branagh spends much time dressed as Chewbacca. But if you're making a movie about heroes with a predilection for capes and spandex, you had better be prepared to face the critical eyes of Comic-Con, the nation's largest gathering of fanboys, Twilight moms and all variants of geeks in between. The four-day San Diego convention, which kicks off Thursday after a preview Wednesday, will draw more than 125,000 pop-culture fanatics of film, television, comic books and video ga

Smallville And The Rebirth of Superman By Jonathan Cyfer As just about all the superhero loving world knows, this coming Season of Smallville will be the last season. Depending on your level of Smallville "fanhood", your response to this news probably ranges from some minor sadness to virtually suicidal depression. The silver lining in the cloud of Kryptonite is that Chris Nolan ( The Dark Knight ) is at the helm of the Superman reboot film: Superman: The Man of Steel . So Smallville will end in Spring 2011 and the new Superman film will be released the following year. This begs the question of just how connected the two projects are. If you've watched the Smallville series and the Christopher Reeve Superman films, you know that a lot of the elements from the films made their way into the Smallville mythos. For instance, crystals seem to play an important role, and the Fortress of Solitude in the Arctic continues to ring with the voice of Jor-El. There's still
