Geek Gratitude 2015

22694069176_01b02f720c_k

Today, Facebook reminded me that I wrote this blog post for Thanksgiving in 2011. We’ve done a lot of different things and met a lot of people since four years ago even though it feels like all that time just breezed by. Our staff members have changed as well with new people coming in and some moving on to other things. We’ve gone to a lot of events and helped out so many of our peers and supported tons of projects.

As for me, I haven’t changed much… I am still neurotic and running this blog has given me a lot of anxiety and frustration. I still get discouraged and I still want to quit half the time. Again, despite my tendency to run circles into my own awkward insanity, I am going to take a deep breathe and recognize all the things and people that I am truly grateful for.

For those of you within the geek community who continue to be true to yourselves and continue to be kind, I am grateful. To all my friends who continue to work hard for Defective Geeks— Giselle, Valerie, Michelle, Yume and Alex— you ladies are my constant source of happy-nerding and friendship. To all our supporting Lady Geeks— Sabina, Adri, Julia, Stephanie and Christy— thank you for contributing when you can. To our currently quiet co-founder, Nancy, we still love you!

SUPPORT THIS: Star Wars the Musical!

You know what’s awesome? Star Wars. You know what else is awesome? Disney movies from our childhood. Now, what if I told you that there are some pretty awesome people out there who have combined these two into entities to create a very entertaining spoof called… wait for it… Star Wars the Musical.

Yes, it does exist! A couple of years ago the Space Pirate Queen and I met George Shaw, a very talented composer who has made this childhood dream mashup come to life.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Shaw a couple of years ago to promote the first episode of Star Wars the Musical and now padawans he needs our help to fund the sequel The Empire’s New Groove.

Awesome Fanfic Monday: The Beginnings of Sith Luke

Hello, kiddies, and welcome to Awesome Fanfic Monday!

With all the hullabaloo with Star Wars I figured I would look for a neat Star Wars Fanfic, particularly one with “Dark Luke”, AKA Luke as a Sith. There are so many rumors going around with what to expect from Star Wars: The Force Awakens and one of those rumors is Luke turning to the Dark Side. I thought, why not look up a fic that features Dark Luke?

This story features an AU as to how that transition could begin, starting with good ol’ Anakin. This week’s Awesome Fanfic Monday is dedicated to Alternate Ending by ObiWriter341 of Fanfiction.net.

Love Live premiere in Los Angeles: Cry all your sparkly, weeaboo tears

If you are into anime at all, there’s no way you haven’t heard of Love Live, the insanely popular series that tells the story of a group of girls that saves their school by becoming an idol group, and gaining popularity by singing and dancing their way into people’s hearts, creating more new students for the small, failing school.

With two seasons under their belt, the 9 girls of LoveLive finish their story arc with their feature film, LoveLive! The School Idol Movie, debuting all of the world this past weekend. (Don’t worry, they are planning a new season, but it will feature different girls at a different school striving to be idols!)

lovelive

NIS America distributed the LoveLive! movie across the US, including several sold out weekend showings at the Downtown Independent Cinema in Los Angeles, CA. Luckily, we (YumeNinja and Myself, ChubbyBunny Michelle) were able to score some tickets and join our weeaboo brethren to the path of our trash life, haha.

Check out our photos of fans from the Sunday showing, and then, my very, very fangirl version of a review. Spoilers below!

Awesome Fanfic Monday: ‘Labyrinth’ Yumminess

If you’re like me probably some of the first “funny feelings” you had as a child were caused by a certain delicious and androgynous Goblin King. That beautiful bastard Jareth had a way of toying with my pre-pubescent (and eventually VERY pubescent) heart. Oh, haven’t we all daydreamed of hanging out with Jareth in the Underground? Didn’t we all try to offer our younger siblings as sacrifice…. or in my case one of my cats? Let’s be honest, how many of us thought that Sarah was sooooo stupid for turning Jareth down and thought, “If that were me I would have been gung ho from the bedroom scene.” There are many fanfics that fulfill that David Bowie spandex filled Mary Sue fantasy (bless them), but I wanted to feature one that is painfully accurate as to what would probably really happen if Jareth showed up in our bedrooms.

This fanfic is called Say Your Right Words and is by Scattered Logic of Fanfiction.net. The protagonist of this fanfiction has no name and she doesn’t need one. She is us, every Labyrinth fangirl who has planned and dreamed of summoning Jareth.
