Who is that Asian in the Background?

Answer: It's Ensign Harry Kim, Star Trek's "other Asian"... In all fairness you may have not noticed him because he is being blocked by Seven of Nine and her... ahem... implants. With the release of Star Trek: Into Darkness this week, I am thinking this might be a good time to address an issue which comes up so often in geek and mainstream media (We call that normedia), the stereotype…See More

Pond of Consciousness: Flying

Why am I doing another stream of consciousness blog? Aren't my posts random enough as it is... If you use the words, "emotional roller coaster," I am O.U.T... Deal I just feel like I am on this emotional... ride... Why am I even typing this again? I'm on cramped airplane, the laptop is half closed and my arms are shoved all the way into my chest like some stinted tyrannosaurus rex stuck in…See More

"Thank you for your comments as always. I would definately agree that special effects are a part of it. It is now cheaper for Hollywood to do these sorts of movies as opposed to Wizard of Oz back in the times of technicolor, where it took an…"

"Ooo very interesting! I agree, I have noticed a lot more fairy tales coming back in newer renditions. Starting with just Disney's The Princess and the Frog and Tangled as a take on Rapunzel (which i thoroughly enjoyed), to tv show adaptations…"

"Kudos for giving props to 10th Kingdom!!! This was a fun post to read. Might another reason for the resurgence be Special Effects/CGI is finally at a level to do Fairy Tales justice? "

Fairly Tales

This was the best acting Stewart did all movie... lifelessness. I was watching HBO-Go the other day, catching up on the latest episode of Game of Thrones, and after its conclusion I found myself wandering around the site looking to satiate my need for more sword and sorcery fantasy. Unfortunately, the only thing I could find was the newest incarnation of the Snow White story, Snow White and…See More

Do Androids Dream of Electric Lawyers

Side Prediction: In the future Supreme Court Justice is going to come with nicer robes... and a golden throne of dragons. When last we met, we talked about the horrifying truth of how humans are really going to become nothing more than machines, or at the very least some sort of demon spawn that is half human and…See More

12 Signs of the Nerdiac

Long ago, our ancestors gazed up to the stars to find the meaning and guidance that was hidden in their sparkly goodness. For in those celestial shapes they found wisdom and stories of great heroes and deeds. We are no different than our stargazing forefathers and those stars still hold many truths, waiting to be discovered.   The signs of the Nerdiac can give us great insights into our…See More

Profile Information

What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?
An awesome one
About Me:
I am a writer, blogger, and I have been a nerd longer than I have been alive (but then I guess that opens up the argument of "when does life begin," which is way more of a philosophically and politically charged question than I wish to get into in this small little description.) Sufficed to say, I may or may not have been trying to swing a lightsaber while in the womb.
Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
LOTR, Star Wars, Comics, Dr. Who, Harry Potter, Farscape, Firefly, Comics, Colbert, Foo Fighters, BSG, GOT (is that really going to be the new abbreviation for Game of Thrones?); and anything else that encourages the use of a wand/staff/sword/blaster/bow and/or arrow/ and a close examination of humanity's condition/history/culture through a lens of imagination and awesomeness... and comics...
What's your favorite thing to put on your head?
I suppose my glasses as they assist me in seeing
If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?
Isaac Newton, but only if we are dancing on the shoulders of an actual giant.
