10 Geeky Movies to Raise Your Kids On



In our never-ending quest to provide you the tools and knowledge to raise your kids in your own geeky image, we present you with a list of 10 geeky movies to raise your kids with. This is a starter list, and by no means comprehensive. It also skews towards the younger set because we have to lay the proper geeky foundation. As always, leave your suggestions for additional titles in the comments.

( list back hereCollapse )

Damn, I've only seen, like, three of these. I thought I was a good geek. What are your favorites, ONTD?

I used to have a doll of her [Christa?] It was fabulous, and I wish I still had it. :/

nightmares forever. I remember severely hating whoever made me watch this.
littlemissmelis 9th-Sep-2008 06:47 pm (UTC)
That style of claymation is fucking creepy dude.
passions_voice 9th-Sep-2008 07:55 pm (UTC)
What the fuck? I don't blame you, if I had watched that as a child I would have been tramatized.
reddressorblue 9th-Sep-2008 08:46 pm (UTC)
The funny thing is that I don't remember where and when I saw it, just that I did have to sit through it at least twice as a very young kid. I think it was at a babysitter's, or maybe my mom rented it. I don't know. I just remember being traumatized.

I somehow blocked it out from my memory until a couple of weeks ago when a good friend and fellow bookworm of mine was like "Oh, look at this creepy claymation version of The Mysterious Stranger". And as soon as it started playing, it all came flying back to me and I had to turn it off for a few moments.

The claymation reminds me of Return to Oz.
