This week we head back into the MVM archives to take you behind the scenes on the making of the 2011 Thor movie! We’ll explore the failed attempts to make a Thor movie in the 90’s and 2000’s - from Sam Raimi, to Matthew Vaughan, to Guillermo del Toro! We’ll dive into Kenneth Branagh’s long fandom with Marvel Comics and the stories of Thor, and the big conflicts he had with Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios! We’ll take you inside the casting of the movie, the big name stars who nearly wielded the hammer, how Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston got their roles, and the disdain that Anthony Hopkins has for this movie! We also dig-in to just how important this movie was to the success of Marvel Studios - after the failure of Incredible Hulk, Marvel badly needed Thor to be a hit!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
