Exuding Geekiness since 1984

Yesterday it finally happened, we went to see Big Hero 6!! And I truly had an incredible time and thoroughly enjoyed the movie from beginning to end. (I also think my daughter did not blink  because she was THAT entertained by Baymax) Big Hero 6 is a huge, HUGE difference from last years disappointment that is known as FROZEN. I couldn't stand it. The opening song is basically not just a foreshadowing of what's to come in the movie, but it actually is the entire movie, sung. No real suspense, not really a female empowerment theme, it's just bland. For me at least, not even Olaf could save it. And now with Big Hero 6, you can tell that the story was better thought through. There's definitely better character interaction and development. From Tadashi, Hiro, Honey, Baymax, and the rest of the characters, there is more of a connection. I could identify with them. But ultimately, I think I can identify (just like everyone else does) myself with is Bay...

May the Force be with J.J. ABRAMS!!! So, after so many times being rick-rolled over “official” trailers for the new Star Wars The Force Awakens, it finally happened!!! We finally got an actual snippet of the trailer that has broken the internet since we found out that J.J. Abrams took the helm of this project. Critics (positive and negative) have abound with their opinions about their personal expectations for this upcoming film. And quite frankly, it’s not over possessiveness, but we want justice after the fiasco of the “Special Editions” and the Prequels. Anyways, all around the fringes of cyberspace comments have been made, expectations either have been heightened or completely destroyed, but it seems a lot more real than those pesky “rumors.” And in my most personal opinion, I only have to say this…. I will reserve any comment, judgment on and or about this (or for that matter, any future teasers, trailers, etc.) teaser trailer until right before the first ...

A couple of days ago, while sitting down and watching Fanboys , got me thinking of the touch-y subject (and at times controversial, I guess) of which one is better, Star Wars or Star Trek? Sure, both franchises have some things in common, like the obvious, both contain Star  in their titles and both revolve around space (and at this point, you maybe yelling at me by saying "No duh"). I promise, this post WILL get better! Ok., aside from the blatantly obvious, both franchises could not be more different. It would be like comparing apples to watermelons. But, I'm not here to discuss the differences, neither am I here to sway you from one or the other. Mainly I'm here to ask you guys, which one and mainly WHY  do you prefer one better than the other? Personally for me, I have so much love for both.  Both were significant and integral parts of my childhood and continue to be. As a child one of my fondest memories is watching reruns of Star ...
