This Day 611. If you have a creative response to it. Email it to me and I will feature it in my new challenge "Created Responses To This Day"
photo by Paul Brookes Enduring a Morning During a morning of impossible climbs out from the valley of sleep, I saw a cliff face woven into a flower, the crags and moss of unconquered peaks, moors of rugged flora all sewn onto one stem. If nature can be a mirror unto itself, then I can be the water, the waker, the dawn chorus, an embrace of Spring-fuelled air. Colin Dardis Bio and Links Colin…

Well... today I was once again reminded how helplessly and absolutely in love I am with Mr. Darcy (and probably always will be).
*gross sobbing* Where do I find my own?
#shut up Ally#but for real though#no matter which Mr. Darcy#whether it's Matthew McFadyen's or Colin Firth's Dardy#they just have me crying on my knees#their portrayals are so good#different#but so fitting to his character still#but I am kinda leaning more towards Colin Firth's Darcy#(and I'm counting in his Mr. Darcy from the Bridget Jones series as well tbh)#ALSO BECAUSE COLIN FIRTH IS DOING A LOTTA THINGS TO ME AND I JUST WANT ONE FOR MYSELF#*ugly crying*#I'm a hopeless case seriously#btw#do you see a pattern in the fictional men I find attractive and fall in love with? hahaha

Colin Dardis writes from Belfast: I’m not in New Mexico but I’ve just read Fire Season by Philip Connors and this spoke to me. early spring, first post – potential acres drowning the lookout station every fire is named – nothing stays anonymous, smallest smoke christened fire paints beneath black – overhead, open canvas, smokejumpers attack yes, it’s true – the fire is welcomed in certain…

The Batman: una nuova arma nel dettaglio della Batsuit
Nuovo post su italianaradio https://www.italianaradio.it/index.php/the-batman-una-nuova-arma-nel-dettaglio-della-batsuit/
The Batman: una nuova arma nel dettaglio della Batsuit
The Batman: una nuova arma nel dettaglio della Batsuit
The Batman: una nuova arma nel dettaglio della Batsuit
Le foto dal set di The Batman hanno evidenziato una Batsuit abbastanza simile a una tuta da combattimento, un costume che sembra ricavato da sesti meccanici, il che si sposa alla perfezione con l’approccio realistico e crudo che Matt Reeves sembra voglia portare avanti nella sua versione per il cinema dell’Uomo Pipistrello.
In particolare, su Instagram sono state pubblicate nuove immagini che mostrano il dettaglio di un “bracciale” del costume del Crociato di Gotham e sembra che il nostro eroe sarà munito di nuove armi. Il manicotto del costume presenta infatti una specie di “faretra” e dentro sono chiaramente visibili dei dardi che sicuramente saranno utili sia nel combattimento corpo a corpo che in quello a distanza.
Ecco le immagini da vicino:

The Batman: cosa pensa Ben Affleck di Robert Pattinson
Il cast di The Batman è formato da molti volti noti: insieme a Robert Pattinson nei panni di Bruce Wayne, ci saranno anche Andy Serkis (Alfred), Colin Farrell (Oswald Chesterfield/Pinguino), Zoe Kravitz (Catwoman), Jeffrey Wright (Jim Gordon) e Paul Dano (Enigmista). Infine, John Turturro sarà il boss Carmine Falcone. Nel cast anche Peter Sarsgaard, ma c’è ancora mistero sul suo ruolo.
HN Entertainment ha suggerito che le riprese del cinecomic si svolgeranno presso i Leavesden Studios di Londra (gli stessi della saga di Harry Potter ma anche di Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League, Wonder Woman e del sequel Wonder Woman 1984) mentre l’uscita nelle sale è stata già fissata al 25 giugno 2021.
“The Batman esplorerà un caso di detective“, scrivono le fonti, “Quando alcune persone iniziano a morire in modi strani, Batman dovrà scendere nelle profondità di Gotham per trovare indizi e risolvere il mistero di una cospirazione connessa alla storia e ai criminali di Gotham City. Nel film, tutta la Batman Rogues Gallery sarà disponibile e attiva, molto simile a quella originale fumetti e dei film animati. Il film presenterà più villain, poiché sono tutti sospettati“.

The Merits of Getting Lost by Colin Dardis
The Merits of Getting Lost by Colin Dardis
By Colin Dardis
The Norwegian explorer Roald Amudsen said that “adventure is lack of planning”. I tend to disagree: adventure is opportunistic, and can, to a certain extent, be planned for. Often, when my wife and I are venturing down some trail, or following a designated route, we will often see a dirt path leading out into the unknown. Or it might be a break in the trees, leading to an opening…

A few groaners for #NationalTellAJokeDay: Two hippies cleaning up after a house party: 1st hippy: “Where’s your bin, man?” 2nd hippy: “Doesn’t come ’til Tuesday, man.” What do you call a female taxidermist?

Fifteen Minutes of Sunshine
Fifteen Minutes of Sunshine
Walk in the sun opposite Renmore
Dedicated to the Dardis family on the passing of their father Tony, and to all families on that final journey with a loved one. Colin had written about wheeling him out in the sunshine some days back for the length of time his dad was able to enjoy it, and how great it was to have something so simple and a time so sweet and short to share…
Something we take for…
