Thor: The Dark World arrives in theaters this weekend to mixed reviews

Tons of awesome British actors getting cast in awesome sounding movies this week along with The Rock and McG teaming up to bring back a classic 80’s TV show in movie form and much more in this week’s News Shotgun.

A possible short list for Batman, a major addition to the Expendables 3 cast, 300: Rise of an Empire gets an R rating, Sharknado 2 gets a title and much more in this week’s News Shotgun.

In the News Shotgun this week is a bunch of directing news, a depressing TV show cancellation, Daredevil is back at Marvel Studios proper and much more.

There are some movies that cannot be contained by the regular Everything Actioncast and The Avengers is definitely one of those movies. Zach, Chris, Brian and Joe spend almost an hour talking about nothing but Joss Whedon’s triumphant culmination of the Marvel movie universe.

The “Summer of Action” kicks off this weekend in the biggest way possible as Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and Hulk finally team up and form The Avengers.

Marvel is once again kicking off the summer with a universe expanding Avengers entry with Thor. Can it live up to it’s predecessors?
