Just remember the most important lesson of world conquest, lego:
Marching on Moscow is not the best way to defeat Russia.

I haven't seen the movie either, but I'd already heard about Prime's death. Doesn't it happen kind of early-on, though?
...how does a robot die?

Actually, he just kinda turns gray. And, you know, stops moving and talking and the other associated afflictions of death.

Things that prove I'm a geek:

When someone asks "hey what's that game you're playing", I can almost never just give them a straight answer. The name is always either japanese/japanese-ish (Katamari Damacy, Makai Kingdom), sounds effeminately fantastic (Tales of Legendia? Come on!), is incredibly long ("oh, this is Vampire: The Masquerade, Bloodlines"), sounds like something that tries so hard a D&D fan would laugh (Planescape: Torment!), or is just so odd or short I have to actually spell it out ("It's Eee... Vee... Oh")
I can never just say "Halo".

Seriously, if you play video games all the time and have a hard time telling people WHAT IT IS YOU'RE PLAYING, then by virtue of your very game choices, you become a nerd.
Or rather, I do.

But dammit -- those are GOOD games.

Oh, right. Then this is better advice for you:
Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to invade Finland during the winter.

I love that Katamari Damacy thingy.

I like Star Wars, heck, just about any sci-fi stuff. I read comic books, I listen to jazz music, I can actually tell you half a dozen fine wines, I can tie 4 variations of a necktie knot, and tell you what each one is, I enjoy european beers (mostly dutch and german) and I only like movies with plot and character development. I build computers in my spare time, I'm an amature photographer with an eye for landscapes and archetecture (but not nudes), I RUN A FUCKING MARCHING BAND FOR CHRIST SAKES.

And I haven't gotten laid since 2002.

Look folks, I'm a geek, I admit it.

I sing in my car to every song, nearly every genre. The other day I had a teenybopper give me a thumbs up a the stop light. I was singing "Don't ya wish your girlfriend..."

Word. The time to invade Finland is July. 6PM on a Friday in July. Everybody is off to their summer cabins. You could totally overrun the country by 8AM Monday before anybody would notice anything.

My geek shows when:
I can talk people's ears off about the history of whiskey in america, the history of the cleveland browns, or the history of the union pacific railroad. I store wayyyy too much useless information.

Yay Short Circuit!

No disassemble!

On that note, I can quote a lot of sci-fi and fantasy movies, with a decent amount of accuracy.
