I was at PHILCON (in Philadelphia) last month. Some cute girl with a small video-camera was asking stupid questions of people. "I'm making a documentary about sci-fi fandom." Oh, brother. I liked it better when the public at large wasn't pandering to fans. I kinda wish that someone would shut off the lights and lock the door on the "geek culture," then roll up the sidewalk.

Never did. Not on Carrie Fisher, not on Jennifer Aniston, not on Kristen Bell. So the pandering does not affect me. I don’t know, maybe I’m a freak, but Slave Leia does nothing for me. Never did.

They're finally making that movie? I remember reading about that script on AICN a long time ago (even before the prequels came out) and then nothing came out of it, so I almost thought I had imagined the whole thing. Way to miss the window of hype, though. Wait, FANBOYS? They’re finally making that movie?

If there were one dollar bills stuffed in her belt and she were lap-dancing a couple o' pimple-faced Jedi -- THEN it would be pandering. It’s not pandering.
