Geek Actually Episode 2 – Don’t Take Our Popcorn

The \"...Geek, Actually\" PodcastIn this episode I am joined in the studio by, writer/actress/creative coach/ex- actor’s agent, Mirren Lee. She shares her love of celebrity gossip and television with us. We also discuss the move by a British cinema chain to ban popcorn!

I review the films “Wanted”, “X-Files: I Want to Believe” and “Pineapple Express”. I also discuss the rise of Apple hackers.

Little Geek and I discuss “The Spiderwick Chronicals” and “The Princess Bride”. I also give a review of the new DVD release of “I know Who Killed Me” – Major spoiler alert, Mirren gives the end away so beware (this film is so bad, you are not really missing anything).

    Who are these bloody people? It’s this anti-popcorn faction that has popped up (no pun intended) recently….no one had a problem with popcorn when **I** was young. It’s like they’ve run out of other unimportant things to complain/campaign/crusade about and have turned to innocent popcorn. Leave the aerated maize alone and go tackle something else, like, oh I don’t know, women’s rights in the Middle East, or maybe schooling for indigenous peoples. God damn it there are some people that really annoy me in this world. I mean, popcorn, that’s your issue, really?
