In a candid interview with Vanity Fair, Marvel star Chris Hemsworth expressed dissatisfaction with his portrayal of Thor in the 2022 blockbuster "Thor: Love and Thunder," admitting that he "didn't stick the landing" and is contemplating a return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) to deliver a more fitting conclusion to his character. According to Hemsworth, his performance in "Love and Thunder" felt overly indulgent in comedy and improvisation, which led to a deviation from the character's essence that fans had admired in "Thor: Ragnarok." "I got caught up in the improv and the wackiness, and I became a parody of myself," Hemsworth told Vanity Fair, reflecting on his approach to the role.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has restored net neutrality rules that prevent internet service providers (ISPs) like AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon from manipulating internet speeds. This decision, enacted through a party-line vote under the FCC's current Democratic majority, revives regulations repealed during the Trump era and categorizes the internet similarly to traditional telecom services, granting the FCC increased oversight. FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel emphasized that the move would protect consumer interests, enhance public safety, and encourage network investment. Despite industry opposition predicting negative impacts on network investment, the restoration of these rules sets the stage for potential legal challenges, particularly given a more conservative-leaning Supreme Court that may question the extent of federal regulatory authority.
