If there is a landmark Anime film out there, this one might be it.  Akira, the groundbreaking, influential, cyber punk infused Japanese masterpiece is on our spotlight today on GeekFest Rants. 

Join Carlos and Steve as they attempt to scratch the surface at this sci-fi classic. 

Not only do we hit the film but a little bit on the Manga and the toys.  This film is a must for fans of this genre. 

OK, we have been waiting for this for a long time, but finally, it's here.  We visited Star Wars Galaxy's Edge at Disney World Hollywood Studios.  Join GeekFest Rants' Carlos and Kyle as they describe their visit to this new Star Wars themed land. 

We hit the park three times on different days and try to experience as much of it as possible.  From the showpiece ride Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run, to the amazing shops, and to the food.  This will be a day long remembered. 

This week on the ISR Show we have what I think might be the best show I've ever produced content wise! We have a To 5 List as well as The Summer Movie Award Winners with a special guest! It's an awesome episode!

We start off with a little convo between me and Engineer Emily where we discuss her recent discussion with that alien we met the other week.. it's pretty sad and also exciting! There may be a quest on the way!

Then we move onto the main event! A Top 5 List Of The Greatest Types Of Cakes Of All The Times and Space. It's thorough and is sure to be super controversial. We all have our favorite cakes right? These are mine. 

At the end of the show we open up an action figure, have a follow up to the flea market talk from last week and talk so much more! It's an exciting hour and for sure one for the record books!

Once upon a time, the best next thing to watching a great film, was knowing that a Director's Cut or a Special Edition was going to be released soon to the home video market. 

Sometimes this was a success, specially when you already loved the theatrical cut.  And occasionally it might reverse your opinion on a film. 

Join Carlos and Steve at GeekFest Rants as they go down the list of some of their favorite  Director's Cuts or a Special Editions.

Today on GeekFest Rants we take a look at Cyborg. No, not DC's Cyborg or Jean-Claude Van Damme' s Cyborg.  Instead we are looking at the book Cyborg by Martin Caidin which inspired the TV sci-fi favorite, The Six Million Dollar Man.

Just like there are generations that have not experienced 8-tracks, records, and cassettes, we will now have a generation that might never see a toy store.
