Strange things are afoot
Jun. 29th, 2013 07:01 pm I actually have the house to myself tonight. That means it's time to party all night which is code for have a beer, watch TV and go to bed early. Being an adult is so glamorous.
I reread the entire Age of Ultron today and I have to say it reads better in one go than it did monthly. It still bugs me that it completely ignores established rules of time travel, i.e. if you change something in the past you create an alternate universe, but characterizations were pretty spot on. I will forever think of the series as the one where Wolverine stabbed time much like DCs Superboy punching time, though I don't know that Wolverine did as much damage.
Now what to watch on TV. Tempted to do a rewatch of XMFC if we still have it on the DVR or rewatch some Defiance since Dr. Yewll seems to have creeped into my headspace. I do wish I had thread brain since I could thread uninterrupted but I spent the day in 100 degree sun and I am cooked.
And Merlin wins out!
ETA: Ah hell, it's Drawing of the Dark, i.e. when Mordred gets his heart broken and starts going bad.
