**Minor Spoilers** So, finally, we are treated to some more substantial dialogue for Richard Armitage in Wolverine: The Long Night. His parts of the episode are really good. He is definitely a master of vocal disguise -- I believe that I would not have recognized this gruff-voiced, snarly North American guy, if I didn't already know who … Continue reading Wolverine #5: Richard Armitage Speaks and Rolls on the Floor

This… I Did Not Like
**SPOILERS** Fourth episode of Wolverine: The Long Night and very little of the title character. Plus, some really disturbing scenes. To me, this is an episode that can be skipped without missing much. About one minute in, a hunter describes seeing, "...a man, naked, without a stitch on him, not even boots..." and we hear a … Continue reading This… I Did Not Like
A MARVELous Start to the Week
It was a pretty good day for a Monday. I started the day in the car listening to the third episode of Marvel's Wolverine: The Long Night. I'm continuing to enjoy it, as they weave in more characters, more details, and more pieces of the puzzle. Once again, there is only a snippet of Richard … Continue reading A MARVELous Start to the Week
Wolverine: The Long Night
I took the plunge and signed up for Stitcher Premium, so that I could listen to Marvel's new scripted podcast, Wolverine: The Long Night, starring Richard Armitage as Wolverine (a.k.a Logan). The first two episodes dropped on Monday, and they are really well done. This is essentially a police crime drama, swirling around encounters with Logan, a man … Continue reading Wolverine: The Long Night
Wanderlust: I Didn’t Hate It
Needless to say, I bought the Wanderlust audiobook (on iTunes Canada) for the sole reason of listening to another Richard Armitage narration. I am not a big fan of pure contemporary romance (or in this case, not so pure!) and after reading a free short ebook also by Lauren Blakely, I was not really eager to listen to … Continue reading Wanderlust: I Didn’t Hate It
Audiobooks: “A Question of Trust” & “The Martian Invasion of Earth”
How strange that in both of the two latest audiobooks I listened to, one of the main characters is a medical student called Edward Wells! A Question of Trust: While thinking about authors of women's fiction I had read and enjoyed in the past, I decided to give one of them a listen and also … Continue reading Audiobooks: “A Question of Trust” & “The Martian Invasion of Earth”
Valentine’s Day
He opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. After a quick weekend at his flat, he had done the short flight back to finish the shoot. "Valentine"s Day," he sighed. It always came around so fast and he was always alone. How had that happened? There had been some promising relationships when he was … Continue reading Valentine’s Day
What I’m Missing
Boy, that Armitage is a busy guy! There are so many projects coming out that that I really want to watch or listen to. The problem is, though, that this is also my busiest time at work. Home has been pretty hectic too, with driving to hockey, homework issues, and an out-of-town guest. And then, … Continue reading What I’m Missing
Odd Things in My Bag
While I am not a purse-carrier, I do carry a very big bag to work every day, filled with whatever I might want or need at any given time. (Don't worry... this is NOT a post about make-up!) My purple bag, in fact, seems to have a life of its own, accumulating many random things … Continue reading Odd Things in My Bag
