The Family That Nerds Together

Nerd runs deep in my family. My father has it, my brother has it, my mother has it, my uncle has it, my cousin has it and of course… I have it. Nerdy things were not cool at school. But they sure were cool at home! My parents are huge Trekkies, saw Star Wars in…

30 Days of Nerdy Hair – Day 3

Day 3: Gem from Tron: Legacy I’ll be honest. Tron wasn’t one of those things I grew up watching and loving. Back in the 80’s, if my parents didn’t watch it and introduce me to it then I never saw it. And when I got older I just forgot about it. But I did see…

30 Days of Nerdy Hair-Nerdvember

Day 20: Rachael from Blade Runner This movie came out in 1982 (incidentally a fantastic year… I was born in it) and was a ground breaking advancement in science fiction films. I’m not even sure how I did this. I sort of started rolling parts of my hair and throwing bobby pins in and this…

Star Wars and Harry Potter

Before I write another word, Star Wars has always been and will always be my very favorite movies of all time. I know every line. And every time I watch any one of them my heart is immediately lightened. It’s nostalgia and joy and all manner of good things wrapped in a bow. Sort of…

Star Trek Into Darkness

Warning: This post contains spoilers. Star Trek Into Darkness is an amazing follow up to J.J. Abram’s 2009 Star Trek. It has everything you want and expect from something holding the illustrious title of Star Trek. But at the same time… this ain’t your daddy’s Trek. It’s updated and modern in all the right ways…

The Host

I went to see The Host last night. This is a movie based on the book of the same title from author Stephanie Meyer, of Twilight fame. I had read the book prior to this, a few times (it’s a good book!!) And I am very happy to report that this movie is a near…

Clean watching

Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, The Chronices of Narnia, Lord of the Rings… all beloved sci-fi/ fantasy film/tv/books. And every single one almost completely devoid of salacious sex, drugs and harsh cursing. Is there such a thing to be found these days? It is rare to say the least. Sure… there’s the…
