New Year's Eve Kiss

So what will Loki do? At midnight, who will be kissing the real Loki and who will be kissing the clone?

Laughing Brothers

Everyone should be happy this week. It will be time again soon enough for angsty Norse sturm und drang -- leave it til then.

"It's Too Late"

Although this is a beautiful and heart-wrenching scene in The Avengers, the nitpicker in me just can't help but notice --

Only one eye tears up, Loki? Visine isn't going to fool Thor, you know.


And Thor, your mascara is showing. Sheesh, you look like Alex from "A Clockwork Orange."

The Thrill of Power

The power to take life. The power to induce fear and panic. Loki clearly enjoys wielding a predator's power. Good times.

Rehearsing Coriolanus

In addition to amazing acting ability and a phenomenal memory, Shakespeare requires physical fitness.



Not surprisingly, Tom Hiddleston recently won the Best Actor award at the London Evening Standard Theatre Awards for his performance in Coriolanus.

Zeus vs Thor: Epic Rap Battle

I don't get nice, I get Norse!

I will drop you like Greece's GDP!

So many good lines, hahahahahaha! Plus an impressively knowledgeable and accurate summary of the finer points of Norse and Greek mythology.

Sons of Asgard and Jotunheim

The red-and-gold heat of Asgard is in thrall to the icy blue chill of Jotunheim.


But Jotunheim is enjoying the unaccustomed warmth and sensation.

 


They are fascinated with each other. So different, yet so united in desire.

Matching Rune Tattoos

Earlier this year, Chris Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky got matching tattoos on the side of their forearms -- a string of Elder Futhark runes representing the first letter of their names and their children's names -- Chris, Elsa, India, Tristan and Sasha. The runes are a nice nod to the Norse foundation of the family fortune as well.
