Science Fiction

Official Synopses: Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment present the epic adventure, “Thor,” which spans the Marvel Universe from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is the mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth​), a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth by his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and is forced to live among humans. A beautiful, young scientist, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman​), has a profound effect on Thor, as she ultimately becomes his first love.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is meant to be a prequel to "Planet of the Apes". The movie stars James Franco as Will Rodman, a scientist who is trying to find a cure for his father's Alzheimer's disease. The experimentation and drug development is done in a lab where chimpanzees are tested on. Rodman's initial drug developments were deemed unsuccessful by the company, and the project was shut down. But Rodman, with the help of a genetically-altered chimpanzee that he raises from infancy sets out to prove everyone wrong.

A curious human from a well-ordered but loveless future, P-A-X-497/341 (aka Pax), played by Barry Watson, returns to the year 2011 to satisfy his curiosity about such archaic concepts as love, passion and winds up making his own discoveries when he meets the woman of his dreams, Elizabeth Barrett, portrayed by Sara Rue, a newly published romance novelist. When Pax doesn't return to the future by the given deadline, Bob (Fred Willard), his fellow scientist, travels back in time to find Pax.
