It's-a me! Or rather, it's-a us, The Geek, Frodo and White Mage! This week we talk about why we don't like going to the theater and why Reign Over Me may draw us back (hint: it has something to do with video games!). Then we talk about poor Caspian's red ring of death, a brand-new Stargate spinoff, the Super Mario Brothers Super Show, kicking a t-rex in the face, Avatar, Katamari for the Wii, and our Top 5 list.

Sci-Fi and Skateboarding! WIN SOMETHING!

posted by Grant on January 6, 2006 8:50 AM in Geek Culture

Hey there all you Geekkateers!

This is your friendly reminder that Sci-Fi friday returns with all new episodes tonight on the Sci-Fi Channel. That means new Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Battlestar Galactica. If you're a sci-fi nut, this is the best three-hour block of it on TV.

Also, if you've been listening to the show, you know that our very good friends at Activision sent us a few games to review. And right now, we're going to give one of them away!

So here's how you can win a copy of Tony Hawk's American Wasteland for the Xbox:

I've been trying to come up with an interesting way to give this sucker away. We're gonna play a little game of six degrees of separation covering the two subjects in this blog post. Starting as of the time and date of this blog post, until 12 noon PST on Sunday, January 8, I want you to send me your best chain from professional skater extraordinaire Tony Hawk to Michael Shanks, star of Stargate SG-1.

The winner will be determined thusly:

The shortest amount of steps in the chain wins.
In case of multiple chains having the same amount of steps, the one I find most interesting will win.
In case of the same shortest and most interesting chain being submitted from multiple people, the one that hits my email inbox first is the winner.

The winner will be announced on the January 9 edition of The Weekly Geek podcast, posted on this here website, and notified via e-mail.

Send all entries to me, The Geek, at thegeek@weeklygeekshow.com
Only one entry per email address, please.

Good luck!

--The Geek
