In some of the more tech-oriented industries that surround the bay area, there are often cruel stereotypes used to describe the culture of its residents. “Geek,” “nerd,” and “dork,” are just some of the harsh monikers often visited upon those of us who choose to seek out work that involves heavy computer proficiency. But I take exception to these names. Just because we create experiences inside of virtual worlds does not mean we’re automatically a slave to the nerdy cultural trends. We can work in cutting edge social media spaces on the internet all day without becoming geeks.

With that said…

The new film, “Battlestar Galactica: Razor” is fracking awesome. Here’s a few pics from our little company outing last night to check it out…

Theresa andThomas excited to be going into the theater to watch the not-at-all-geektastic film chronicling the story of how the Battlestar Pegasus survived the Cylon genocide.


A bunch of people waiting to watch “Battlestar Galatica: Razor” who are probably geeks… unlike us.

Bart points out the theater sign for a film that is not necessarily nerd oriented at all.

The title screen to a gripping film that tells the story of military leader Admiral Cain and her tragic fall during the exodus from the 12 colonies… and NOT some nerdy science fiction film.

Me attempting to blend in among the geeks. Notice the clever disguise.

Hope all you Battlestar Galatica fans get a chance to check this movie out soon. In the meantime, Michael Verdi, I know you were synchronizing with us and planning to watch the movie simultaneously at 9pm central time. Please let us know how your own not-nerdy-at-all film viewing experience went.
