Buffy the Vampire Slayer Vs Edward the Slayer Stalker Twilight Remix

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Vs Edward the Slayer Stalker <i>Twilight</i> Remix
This just made my day, possibly my year. No, I don't have an unrelenting hate for Twilight like some, but there are times when it's hard to like it (I can still hear echoes of the brain-piercing screams from the fangirls at last year's Comic-Con panel). Geeks love seeing worlds (copyrighted properties) collide, ...

First Look at Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland

First Look at Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland
You know that when Tim Burton reworks a known, traditional concept for film, it's going to get freaky. He did it with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, he's done it with Sweeney Todd, and you have to admit his two Batman films were more than a little weird. Well, Disney has put him ...

Bear McCreary & the Battlestar Galactica Orchestra Play LA

Bear McCreary & the Battlestar Galactica Orchestra Play LA
I was lucky enough to score a front row seat to the FREE Music of Battlestar Galactica concert tonight in downtown LA at the California Plaza on Grand Street. There's lots of reasons why Battlestar Galactica has been called the "best show on television" and I'm now more convinced than ever that the music ...

San Diego Convention Ctr Making More Room for Geeks
I know this isn't the sexiest, most cutting edge pop culture news, but to a geek like me (and maybe a geek like you), this is pretty important. As you likely know, the San Diego Comic-Con International convention is Mecca for geeks from around the world. Each year, Comic-Con is held ...

E3 Expo 2009 – Let There Be Rock! New Video from the Event

E3 Expo 2009 - Let There Be Rock! New Video from the Event
I'm still working on a number of video compilations from this year's E3 event, but man, it's taking awhile to be somewhat creative with my editing. I tried to make one long video of clips from everything, but that would have gone on for hours. Then I tried to create a video of ...

First Look at Mickey Rourke as Whiplash in Iron Man 2
USA Today has the first look at Mickey Rourke in costume as Whiplash in the now-filming Iron Man 2 movie, starring Robert Downey Jr and directed by John Favreau. It looks a little bit like Whiplash is sporting a chest plate similar to Iron Man's. Favreau admits that they're related and ...

E3 Expo 2009 – Wall to Wall Pictures from the Floor!

E3 Expo 2009 - Wall to Wall Pictures from the Floor!
I've spent the last 7 hours sorting, resizing, uploading, titling, and tagging more than 200 brand new pictures on the PopCultureGeek Flickr site (we now have a total of 335 with more to come tomorrow!). I don't have the energy to write anything more to compliment what these pictures should be able to ...

E3 Expo 2009 – Nintendo and Sony Share Their Wares

E3 Expo 2009 - Nintendo and Sony Share Their Wares
It's been an exhausting day. I told you yesterday that I was only going to get about 4 hours sleep. I'd be surprised if I got that much. Not long after I was sitting in Club Nokia for the Nintendo Media Briefing. Now I'm a Nintendo-phile. I love my Nintendo. ...

E3 Expo 2009 – Xbox Might Just Change Gaming as We Know It

E3 Expo 2009 - Xbox Might Just Change Gaming as We Know It
I don't know where to begin. So much happened today, and most of it happened at the Xbox conference. I got to the USC Galen Center early enough to be second in line and get 1st row center (on the upper concourse), which had an incredible view of everything. I've already ...
