In this August topic show, we bring you our thoughts and feelings on the Scott Pilgrim franchise from someone who got to experience being in the movie first hand (Pierce is in the movie!) and Laidman and Birdman too! Scott Pilgrim has really put the geek spotlight back on Canada as more then just the lair of Smallville and Battlestar galactica but also home to one of the biggest pop culture phenomena in the last few years with Bryan Lee O'Malley's fantastic graphic novel series come to life! The TWIG boys talk about the books and the deeper meaning behind the crazy cast of characters, the film and it's attempt to cram six books into one feature film shorter then "Inception" and lastly the kick ass video game adaption from Ubisoft (This game makes up for Just Dance, BTW) Its time to go out and defeat our own 7 evil ex's and get ready to rock out with Sex-bob-omb!

Yes, you knew it was coming....an inevitable storm that was slowly building till you knew it was coming....yes, we geeks are taking on Stephanie's Meyer's TWILIGHT Franchise. However as take on this pop culture phenomena, we'd like to preface this as we are here to take a serious look as geeks, academics, film critics and even book enthusiasts. Birdman, Double, Ryan and Rebbecca sit down and take an examination into this series of books and movies and fan movement as unbiased as they can and look at where things went right and where things went wrong. This topic took some serious research on the TWIG team and as such this is a LONG episode so be prepared for our discussion as take on the sparkly undead and discuss what could possibly be one of the biggest pop culture equalizers of recent memory... So weather your Team Edward, Team Jacob or even Team Rocket, hopefully you walk with an answer to the question, Does Twilight suck?

Itrsquo;s Birdman, The Skunk and Double D cominrsquo; at ya with another episode of This Week in Geek where wersquo;re talking about the man, the legend, the director that defined what it was to be an angsty 16 year old in 1985, none other than John Hughes himself. Along with our regular dose of news and some very interesting voice mail messages (which Mike finally didnrsquo;t accidentally delete this time) wersquo;re going to talk about the early works of Mr. Hughes and how they helped define a generation.With everything from strange Chinese foreign exchange students to computers that can produce super-models and all the laughs and drama in between we will discuss who Mr. Hughes was and the impact he made on the world of cinema that helped shape young filmmakers like Kevin Smith and Wes Anderson to becoming international superstars. So we invite you to sit back, grab your pixie stick sandwich and your cute cheerleader girlfriend (who you just know will somehow end up leaving you for your nerdy best friend) and enjoy the show. Mike, Stefan and Dave will bring you all the memories from a time when hair was bigger, music had louder drums for some reason and it was cool to wear plastic sunglasses without looking like a douche bag. In the immortal words of Ferris Bueller, life moves pretty fast, if you donrsquo;t stop and look around every once in a while, yoursquo;ll miss it.
