Hello to the team at Disney, Greetings from a few of us fans who want to drop some positive comments your way. Yes, Disney and Lucas Film have taken some flack and fan friction in the past few months. That’s not what this letter is about.                  …

No Work is  Ever a Solo Venture

  By G. P. Avants   Here is something fun I wanted to share with you. Since we know how a blog, God Among Geeks and podcast, Neekology 101, I watch movies and TV shows a little bit differently.  I wanted to share how I get first impressions and ideas for posts. Maybe for those…

Do You Speak Wookie?

Porg: The Inedible White Meat

  By: John D. Pepe               There’s a lot of buzz on the internet about this new Star Wars creature, the Porg.  This cuddly, lovable, big eyed puppet was “left on the work bench” and shown for a second on the behind the scenes reel at D23.               These Porgs live on Ahch-To,…
