Audio Visual Stimuli

This last week and a half I've been indulging in a bit of movie watching and reading.

These were on the menu.

Reading week 37

Deadlocked is the 12th and from what I gather the penultimate Sookie Stackhouse novel. Good book but not as enthralling as the previous one. Wonder where this takes it.

The Invincible Iron Man: The Five Nightmares is a fantastic collection of issue 1-7 is that series.
Great writing and impressive artwork. Highly recommend it.

Astonishing Thor issue 1-5 collected. Great writing (at least based upon the Norwegian translation (this is the only of the three I read in Norwegian)) and fantastic artwork: Do read.

The Sherlock movies I did watch Game of Shadows then rewatched the first one upon doing that. Great movies. They make more sense that the chubby guy and the deerstalker wearing version.

Watched the Avengers the day after it came out on Blu-ray here (that is the two disc Steelbook edition).
All I can say is BEST superhero movie I've watched so far! And the extra disc is 90 minutes of the lead up to The Avengers.

Warrior is by far the best drama I've seen in ages! Fighting that looks real and a heartbreaking story.
I was so involved in the movie I sat wringing my jumper and at the end I completely broke down and bawled. It took me about 2 hours and a shower to regain equilibrium. You MUST watch this!
