Insomniatic Knight

Puzzlewood is an ancient woodland site, near Coleford in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, England. The site, covering 14 acres, shows evidence of open cast iron ore mining dating from the Roman period, and possibly earlier.

In 1848 some workmen, after moving a block of stone in the woods, found a small cavity in the rocks. In this cavity, hidden away, were three earthenware jars containing over 3,000 Roman coins. No-one knows why the coins were hidden away in the cliff face nor by whom.

J. R. R. Tolkien, a frequent visitor to the Forest of Dean, may have visited Puzzlewood, and many believe Puzzlewood was the inspiration for the fabled forests of Middle-earth, such as the Old Forest, Mirkwood, Fangorn or Lothlórien contained within The Lord of the Rings. J.K Rowling is also said to have visited Puzzlewood, and it may have been this that influenced her idea of The Forbidden Forest in the Harry Potter books.

Iron Man 3 - Patriot Armor confirmed!

Salute to the Red, White, and Blue! It’s been confirmed that the other man of steel will be donning the patriotic suit created by Norman Osborne (yes, from Spider-man), though (obviously) neither Osborne nor Spider-man will be making an appearance in the movie.

Kinda makes you wish we lived in an alternate universe where Marvel owned the film rights to ALL of their characters eh?

CRYING BECAUSE THE IRON PATRIOT ARMOR IS REAL AND MARVEL DOESN’T HAVE THE MOVIE RIGHTS TO EITHER X-MEN OR SPIDER-MAN SO WHO THE HELL MADE THE ARMOR IF IT WASN’T NORMAN OSBORN AHHHHHHHHH

well it’s been confirmed that the story has to do with starktech being stolen? so if it’s not norman osborne it will hopefully (probably?) have a very similar start. i do, however, think they’re keeping his face covered on purpose. obviously it won’t be osborne but it might be someone unexpected? shrug
