I'll see your nerdiness and raise you one geekiness. I grew up reading asimov, clarke, and heinlein. I've continued to read scifi and watch scifi throughout my life. In all my conversations with other geeks, sf and scifi have been interchangeable.

syfy is, however, completely hokey.

True enough. Ketchup bottles making farty noises can make me laugh until I cry. Darlet #2 comments, "Daddy, you're such a boy".

It was pretty good. We got there just before the movie started and the only seats were up front. On the bad side this meant I missed some action on the sides. On the good side it filled my peripheral vision so it was a pretty immersive experience.

I did not get motion sickness, but Mrs. Levy did. She had to leave the movie after about an hour.

Wolf already saw Avatar, but we met for dinner. It was great to see her again in real time.
