How Shawarma Made Its Way Into 'The Avengers'

Last spring, right after the Hollywood premiere of Marvel's "The Avengers," Joss Whedon decided to slip in one last scene to his mega-team-up, pulling the rug out from under us in the most delightful way.

How he pulled off tacking the stinger to the end of the movie with Bruce Banner, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Thor, Natasha Romanoff, and Clint Barton chowing down on a certain beef/lamb hybrid is now subject to a featurette called "And Then Shawarma After" on the extensive (and expensive) new "Avengers Assembled" Blu-ray set.

50 Upcoming Movie Sequels (Yep, 50)

Army of Darkness Universal

Sequels are awesome, plain and simple. Returning to familiar characters and worlds we love is like covering yourself with a warm blanket, although when a sequel is bad it can be like a blanket covered in potato bugs and lice. Studios love sequels because seven times out of ten they open huge, no matter how good they are. Get More »

Behold some of the most elaborate and large-scale movie-themed fan art you'll ever see, most of it created under cover of night with a few spray cans and a seething desire to create ... or at least conjure stunning portraits of Neo, Freddy Krueger, Yoda, the Dude and other pop culture icons that shape our everyday lives.

How Much Does Thor's Hammer Weigh? Science Has the Answers!

Pop cultural astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson used Twitter to help shed light on an important question plaguing the geek community: just how much does Mjölnir — Thor's hammer — weigh?

The hammer was "forged from a collapsing star" according to comic book legend, which Tyson claims means it clocks in at the equivalent rate of about "300 billion elephants." So that's 4.5 quadrillion pounds, if you're counting with your hands. In which case, stop, and go back to using "billions of elephants" as your measurement unit of choice.

So, yeah, Thor will definitely want to check that baby in baggage claim next time he boards a flight. (And, no, no one is going to steal it. It weighs 300 billion elephants, for the Gods's sake!)
