So last week I told shared with you that I just wasn’t that nerdy…well this week was EVEN LESS NERDY!!!  Which has to be some kind of record for me.

A few nerdy things that I did get to…

Didn’t mention last week, but LOST is back!!  I really loved this week’s episode.  Desmond stories have been consistently good and the overall mythology really moved forward.  All the time jumping can start to get slightly confusing, but I am really enjoying it so far after 3 episodes.

The mini-series “FINAL CRISIS” ended this week and I have to say, I am completely confused!  For non-comic book nerds, this was a DC Comics story written by Grant Morrison.  Grant is know for his imagination and solid story telling.  His “All Star Superman” mini last year was lauded as one of the best stories of the year, not to mention one of the best Superman stories ever told.  So here he got to play in the giant toy box that was the DC Universe and after 6 issues and about 10 ancillary issues, I was left completely scratching my head.

The only other really nerdy thing was Super Bowl commercials for “G.I. Joe, Rise of Cobra“, “Star Trek” and “Transformers 2, Revenge of the Fallen“.  I found links HERE, HERE and HERE respectfully.  G.I. Joe – hmmmm.  Star Trek – not a lot of new footage but still looks promising.  Transformers – the problem with giant transforming robots fighting…it all just looks like a whole pile of metal mess.  Will I probably see all three movies when they hit theaters, ahhhhh, yeah, but just not blown away by the trailers.

One last thing, keep checking out “The New Frontiersmen” web site as they continue to deliver neat little “Watchmen” nuggets.
