COTB 018 – A Geek Christmas

After a small break Carlos and B.J. return for a Christmas review of gift ideas for the geek in your family. Along the way they talk Justice League speculation, the new Superman and Star Trek trailers, and engage in various other geeky topics.

Magical Girl Kirsten Dunst cosplay, made of win

Yeah, I used “made of win.” Sue me!

I’ve always been something of a Kirsten Dunst fan (I should say “we,” since her image long graced the window of Q’s workspace), and this is just fanboy/girl heaven. ^_-

So, Kirsten Dunst + Princess Cosplay + Akihabara + 80s cover!

Akihabara, for those of you who don’t know, is an area of Tokyo famous for its tech goods and its anime/otaku stuff. It is awesome. If I ever get a chance to go back to Japan, I’m spending more time there. ^_^

The comments on the BoingBoing post are to me, shockingly negative. This video made my day. ^_^
