Matrix Re-watch: Animatrix

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

“In the beginning, there was man. And for a time, it was good. But humanity’s so-called civil societies soon fell victim to vanity and corruption. Then man made the machine in his own likeness. Thus did man become the architect of his own demise”
We’ve finally reached the end of the Matrix road, and what an [...]

Matrix Trilogy Re-watch: Revolutions

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

“Why, Mr. Anderson? Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you’re fighting for something? For more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Yes? No? Could it be for love? Illusions, Mr. Anderson. Vagaries [...]

Movie Re-Watch: Real Genius

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

Join us in re-living one of every geek’s favorite flicks: Real Genius.

If you get a chance, swing [...]

GWC Re-Watch: Wargames

Sunday, December 16th, 2007
