It’s funny how little things can ignite a fire in your inner geek. Yesterday, it was the announcement that the new Star Trek movie was going to be released simultaneously in regular theaters and in IMAX. This news got me so excited that I literally called my wife in from the living room to show her the news. I then immediately played the new trailer with Spock as loud as I could.
Today, it was a simple picture form the upcoming Star Wars MMO ‘The Old Republic’ that fueled my fire.
I’ve always liked Star Wars, but as anyone will tell you, I’m a die hard Trek fan till the end. To give you some perspective, my guys and I all wore Star Trek: The Next Generation comm badges on our boutonnieres on our tuxes.
But for some reason, when I saw the glow of the lightsabers, I got excited about Star Wars again. It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten excited about Star Wars. I’m glad I found out it still possible.
UPDATE:
I think picture of the lightsaber battle really reminded me of this.
