For Spartacus, something that made me run in circles and flap my hands like a nut: an interview with Steven DeKnight and Liam McIntyre for AfterElton.
That's... \o/ No, seriously! \o/ More Agron and Nasir! I resigned myself to them dying in the end and me bawling my eyes out - because I will, I know that! - but while it lasts, it's gonna be beautiful!
And an interview with Tom Hiddleston and his stuntman about The Avengers: link.
I really hope that, for once, it'll follow the tried and true course: the brothers kicking the hell out of each other, then someone else attacking Thor and Loki going all berserk on them for hurting his brother. That could lead to not Thor taking Loki back but to Loki taking Thor back to Asgard to save his life. That would be all kinds of awesome. It won't happen of course, that would be too much fan service but... I would squee like a nut if it did!
SDK: With the gay relationship this season, I was really interested in exploring kind of a deeper love. It’s almost like a tender romantic...
LM: You really get time to see it...
SDK: Yeah. You get to see it from the start.
LM: You can see it bloom.
SDK: Yeah, from the start, where they come into it.
AE: Great!
SDK: You see it start. I think we lay a lot of great groundwork for it this season and then next season I want to explore it even deeper.

One of the biggest battles in the film is the clash between Thor and Loki on the top of Stark Tower. "We were trying to design the fight so it had big brother-versus-little brother mentality," says fight choreographer Jonathan Eusebio. "Thor wants to take Loki home without harming him, while Loki wants to approach the fight with deadly intentions. As the fight continues, emotions escalate and the stakes get bigger. Thor becomes really angry and the fight becomes very brutal at its conclusion." Tom Hiddleston adds, "Each of us has a particular weapon and skill and in this fight it’s Loki’s scepter up against Thor’s hammer. Thor uses his hammer like a boxing glove and Loki uses his scepter in more of a Wushu way. But after a little bit, Thor drops his hammer, Loki drops his scepter, and it’s just two brothers fighting sloppy and nasty."
