Why are geeks interested in the James Bond movies?

Duh!!

1- Girls

2- Gadgets

3- Guns

4- Spanish Inquisition (whoops, sorry I didn’t expect that)

5- Style

James Bond is a badass.  He’s a badass that has kewl toys, gets the girls and blows up a lot of things in style.  One moment Sean Connery has a duck on his head swimming through the water, the next he’s in a tuxedo.   And that tuxedo probably has more devices imbedded in it than my cell phone.

2008 is pretty much over in terms of movies.  Sure, we have the holiday rush to get as many family oriented ones out as possible, but there’s nothing any of us are actually looking forward to (except Quantum of Solace, can’t WAIT).  Thanks to this lull, and to the insane “time to home video” capabilities of the movie industry, we’re now able to view the ones we might have missed in theaters relatively quickly.

And you know what?  2008 was a pretty good year, in terms of movies!  At least, the big ones.  

• 27 Dresses: This movie was actually a LOT of fun!  I personally have a bit of a thing for Katherine Heigl, but even if you don’t this is a fun date movie.  No, nothing geeky in it . . . but geeks need dates too.
