3. Rogue One
I’m sure some of you have been wondering how it’s possible that I haven’t discussed Rogue One yet, and I get it. When you think back to the history of I Am Geek (we’re a year old now of course we have a history) then you’ll remember that this site started in a glow of Star Wars love. I opened the site right around the time The Force Awakens was released and spent … Continue reading 3. Rogue One
4. DC Rebirth #1
There’s a term I’ve kind of grown tired of when concerning comic books. It usually is applied to an upcoming big event series and always states “the landscape is going to be changed forever”. It’s just such a trite and tired expression because forever in comic books is a very brief window. Just ask any character, who isn’t Uncle Ben, that’s died. No one stays … Continue reading 4. DC Rebirth #1
5. Game of Thrones
Things are funny the way they work out. It seems like months ago I was sitting here questioning whether or not I would even be watching the sixth season of Game of Thrones. The book purest in me didn’t want to have any part of it. How dare you put out a season before the new book? The audacity of such an action almost seemed to … Continue reading 5. Game of Thrones
6. Westworld
Man, I have been wanting to write about Westworld for awhile now. But every time I would start a piece about it I would say to myself, “Self, you’re just going to write about this in a couple of weeks again for the Best of 2016 and no one is going to care” so I put it off and off and off until I started this list. Now I … Continue reading 6. Westworld
7. Captain America: Civil War
It would be really easy for me to come on here for the Best of 2016 and make a large majority of this list Marvel items. Think about it, the amount of content that Marvel puts out on a yearly basis is craaaaaazy. You’ve got your movies, video games, comic books, television shows, not to mention toys and random awesome things spread throughout the course of … Continue reading 7. Captain America: Civil War
8.The Fireman
While I read a lot of books throughout the year (thirty-one for the year. What what) not all of them were necisarrily released in 2016. Don’t get me wrong, I read a number of “current” books (is current the right word here?) but I try not to limit my reading based on the year the book was released. There were a number of books that I loved … Continue reading 8.The Fireman
9. The Vision
I don’t know if you guys know this but I read a lot of comic books. Whoa that revelation must be so shocking. If I wasn’t so tired I’d give you guys a moment to process it but I’m afraid if I stop typing I’m going to pass out on my keyboard which means you’ll have to process this on your own time. My apologies. I … Continue reading 9. The Vision
10. Deadpool
The tenth spot was the most difficult spot on this years list. I’ll tell you something Geeklings, it’s real easy to figure out your favorite things of the year. The top five is pretty much a lock, but it’s when you start to work your way down the list that it becomes more and more difficult. Where do certain things rank and if you rank … Continue reading 10. Deadpool
The Best of 2016
It seems that the general consensus, when talking about 2016, is that it was kind of a shit year all around. And while I understand that train of thought I don’t necisarrily agree. Well, let me clarify. On a personal level, 2016 was a great year. I lost about 25 pounds (and managed to keep it off), got a job writing television reviews and comic … Continue reading The Best of 2016
Week In Geek- LOST Pops, New Blade Runner Trailer, and True Detective Season 3?
And just like that, welcome to year two. I kind of like the idea of counting the life of this site in years. This way you guys can reference things like, “remember in year two where he wrote that column about…” It’s like a TV show but a blog and instead of seasons it’s years… like real life. I’m rambling. What better way to kick … Continue reading Week In Geek- LOST Pops, New Blade Runner Trailer, and True Detective Season 3?
