Detroit was just last month, we’re all still cold from that, and no automakers are revealing anything of substance in the Windy City. Volkswagen may have revealed their fifth reborn-Microbus concept at Detroit, but Chicago has an amazing reveal, too! A Lego VW Atlas!How about that, everybody! It’s VW’s new full-size SUV, the Atlas, only now it’s small-sized and made of Lego! It’s white, with some grey!
It’s in a little Lego city, next to a modified version one of Lego’s VW Microbus models, and it has rubber wheels and a little VW badge and… oh, fuck it. I can’t do this. Look, the Atlas seems fine, and it’s going to be priced well, but let’s be honest. You could change like eight lego blocks on that model and pass it off as a Lego Ford Expedition or a Lego Jeep Grand Cherokee or a Lego Toyota Sequoia. It’s fine, but it’s work for me to really give a shit. Who’s the kid who’s going to pick the Lego VW Atlas over the Lego VW Microbus model? Seriously, I want to meet that kid, because I may have them do my taxes.Free shipping* on orders $75 or more. – DC TV January 2017 February 27, 2017 at 4:08 pm / The Daily Geek Out, Trilogy Spoilersis back for a DC TV Roundtable for January 2017, and of course we include the usual suspects, the Fabulous Four, Supergirl, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Arrow!

Meanwhile at Station House 4, Dr. Ogden (Helene Joy) enters Detective Murdoch’s (Yannick Bisson) office. Before the police officer can say anything, she throws her arms around his neck, planting a passionate kiss on his lips. It turns out, […] Netflix Drops First Teaser for Upcoming Will Smith Movie, BRIGHT February 27, 2017 at 10:50 am / Movies, The Daily Geek Out, We Have Cookies
Netflix continues to push the boundaries of the way we consume traditional media, refuting the long held idea that movies are for theaters and episodic stories are only for television. So far they’ve killed it with their episodic stories, such as Orange is the New Black, Bloodlines, Kimmy Schmidt, Series of Unfortunate Events, House of Cards, and the Marvel Universe. Recently they’ve turned their considerable clout to movies, attracting big names to deliver quality content across multiple genres. Their latest offering is Bright, […] Geek Girl Cantina: Weekly STAR WARS Wrap-up – 02/26/17 February 27, 2017 at 6:00 am / Across the Stars, Movies, The Daily Geek Out Here at Geek Girl Cantina we’ll be wrapping up the week in Star Wars news.

However, at the same time there are plenty of films which don’t make the final cut.
These films are our favorites to earn nominations for Best Picture, but ultimately lost in the end. What movies would make your Top 10? 1.) THE MUSIC MAN The Music Man was nominated in 1962, which proved to be a year of hard fought competition. While Lawrence of Arabia dominated, classics The Longest Day and To […] Bill Paxton Dies at 61 February 26, 2017 at 9:19 am / Movies, The Daily Geek Out, The Geeky Film Student *********** UPDATE: According to TMZ,” Paxton underwent heart surgery and had complications post-op and suffered a fatal stroke.” ********** A mainstay in Hollywood, Bill Paxton is best known for his work in films like Aliens and Apollo 13.

February 25, 2017 at 5:21 pm / The Daily Geek Out, The Flack Attack Doctor Who Season 10 will premiere on Saturday, April 15th and he’ll have a new companion beside him. In a teaser trailer released today, the BBC focuses on this new companion, Bill (Pearl Mackie) and her impressions of The Doctor. The exciting part about this, to me, is that Bill seems to be starting from a place of adventurous curiosity. Not all companions start out willing to so boldly leap into the fray. Bill seems to be a daredevil in […] Movie Review – THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE February 25, 2017 at 3:01 pm / Movies, The Daily Geek Out, The Movie Guys BAT-SHIT CRAZY The Lego Batman Movie by Paul Preston The Movie Guys Batman is ripe for satire. Not just general superhero satire, but satire of the Batman himself – the orphaning, the solitude, the butler, the gadgets, the whole deal. After getting a good taste of Batman jokes in 2014’s The Lego Movie, the studio and team behind that film have branched out to give the caped crusader his own adventure.
