Today, after listening to the guys at [ TWIT ], I signed up with Audible. I have been wanting to do that for awhile and after listening to the TWIT crew go on and on, I figured now would be a good time.
Back when the Will Smith movie “I am Legend” was being advertised, I was REALLY excited, since I had read the book years ago when I was in Junior High School, and since I am a Will Smith fan, I thought that was the greatest thing in the world to think that he would be playing Robert Neville.
The movie lived up to my expectations, at least from the standpoint that it was a great movie. It seemed quite a bit different from what I remember from the book though, so I wanted to grab a copy and re-read it. Plus, my favorite group of online geeks were also going to be doing a [ re-read of the book ], so I was looking forward to getting a copy and revisiting the story. Unfortunately, I haven’t had the time to pick up a copy, and actual reading seems like a distant memory these days, so the Audible thing sounded like a good solution.
So, I downloaded the book today and loaded up my iPhone with it, and have gotten through chapter three. So very good. I think I may be spending quite a bit of money on Audible.com…
Tomorrow we get our first new content from the Stargate SG-1 series. It has been a long time since we have see the Jaffa and the SG-1 team take on the Ori.
Tomorrow the Ark of Truth is released straight to DVD, a little disappointing that I have to purchase the DVD to see it, I was hoping that SciFi would just show the movies on TV as they planned originally, but in the end I guess that it is just nice to have new elements of the story to watch.
Also, being released tomorrow is season 3 of BSG. Woot! I am happy for my fellow BSG fans who do not have the 3rd season yet. I downloaded all three seasons off iTunes before NBC and Apple started their little drama fest and split off.
Tomorrow, when you get your copy you can join in with the fun times over at GWC as we start this weeks [ re-watch of The Maelstrom ]. Quite possibly the best episode of the entire season…
