...I am becoming better acquainted with my new command this Galaxy-class USS Enterprise. I am still somewhat in awe of its size and complexity. As for my crew, we are short in several key positions most notably, a first officer...
Actually, I already have a first officer, though she's more accurately a co-captain. My sister Sarah and I are starting this blog so that we can report on all things geeky. I'm very excited about all the different things that we're going to be able to do with this. We will be including our fangirl favorite of the week, convention coverage, movie reviews, geeky crafts (we ARE girls after all), noteworthy cosplay, interviews and much much more! It will be a new adventure for both of us and I hope that we're able to provide information and entertainment for everyone!
Since this is just the beginning and things aren't up and running at full speed, I'll just add a couple of notes of things to come. Tomorrow night we'll be watching Pacific Rim and will be able to add our movie review! A war between humankind in robot suits and giant sea creatures?? Sounds geeky to me! Of the cast, I have to say I'm most excited to see Idris Elba (Losers), and Burn Gorman (Torchwood). Look for our review in the next couple days.
Right now, there is so much to geek out about. San Diego Comic Con is starting in just a few days and Sarah and I have been having a great time keeping up with the Course of the Force as everyone prepares for the convention. Unfortunately, neither of us are able to be in the California area for all of the festivities, but we're able to see a bit of the fun with these cool videos...

One more thing that we have to look forward to is Chicago Comic Con. There are only 24 more days until this exciting event! The lineup really is amazing. They have Stan Lee, Norman Reedus, Zachary Quinto, John Barrowman, Summer Glau, Will Wheaton, CM Punk, Alan Tudyk, Morena Baccarin, James and Oliver Phelps, James Marsters, Eddie McClintock and Juliet Landau. Of course, there are many more people, but these are just some of my favorites. I'll be paying a visit to my friend Jeff Balke while he hangs with the rest of the artists. I will be spending serious time over at the Comic Book Displays booth as their "booth babe". If you happen to be coming to the con, please come and visit us!
That'll about wrap it up for now. There will also be a podcast coming along soon. We'll post more info on that later. In the meantime, leave feedback for movies you'd like reviewed, people you want us to interview, cosplay that you'd like to see done, conventions you'd like to see covered, etc. We want to help you connect with your favorite geektastic stuff!
Till next time,
The Geek Girls
