GEEK THIS!

David Hunt & Dave Clements

Watching movies and talking about other bits of pop culture isn't fun to do alone, so two longtime friends have teamed up to review whatever it is they're geeking out about with episodic series like THE CAPE GAUNTLET, ON FILM, and more.

The 2025 Plan

The 2025 Plan

Yes, we tend to do this every single year: lay out a game plan for what the show will look like and then fail miserably. That’s what happens when your hosts are employed full-time, have families, and don’t feel like they’re ever breathing at the end of the day. BUT… we really are trying. Dave is doing some video projects for work, so you, lovely audience, will be benefiting from that as well. Subscribe to the GEEK THIS! YouTube channel for quick reviews and the occasional

Two companies stand at the forefront of comics book publishing. While this is common knowledge, a good majority of readers may not have experienced the seminal issues that laid so much of the groundwork for what would come in the 80+ years that were to follow. This time on The Cape Gauntlet we'll be going back to the late 1930's. We'll be taking a look at Action Comics #1 from National Allied Publications and Marvel Comics #1 from Timely Comics.

For my first installment of Heistmas, I'm talking about Ocean's Eleven, which will always hold a special place in my thief-movie-loving heart. The original Ocean's Eleven starred The Rat Pack - Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis, Jr - and was released in 1960. That, however, is not the movie I’m talking about t

Golden. Silver. Bronze. Modern. All of these are eras in comic book history that had their own stories to tell and over the course of the last 80 years, there have been hundreds of thousands of issues published between the main two publishing companies - Marvel Comics and DC Comics - alone. They have pushed what we know about characters beloved for decades and, at times, have published story lines that have had dramatic and long-lasting effects on their universes. Sadly, we’re not super humans,

At the end of 2017, a battle began for the acquisition of rights to many of 21st Century Fox’s assets. The ones we’re immediately interested in here at GEEK THIS were, of course, those surrounding the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and other Marvel intellectual property.
