Check out the top five Geek-Out Moments of 2007, continued from Part One. See the biggest moments in television, movies, and boy wizards.
5. Sci-Fi(nales)
How close with Galactica get to Earth? How will the cheerleader save the world? How annoying will Kim Bauer be this season? And who the hell are the Others already? We spent months watching these epic, serialized, nothing happens for the entire year waiting for the ultimate payoff. And here it comes. Come April and May, we’ll see the end of Heroes’ first season, an all-new season of 24 and Lost, and our only starship fix, Battlestar Galactica. And then the summer comes, just in time for 4400 and Project Runway (ok, maybe that one’s just me).
4. Spending the Summer at the Movies
Spider-Man 3. Pirates of the Caribbean 3. Harry Potter 5. Transformers. Fantastic Four 2. Ok, yeah the Transformers and Fantastic Four will probably disappoint, but we’ll still have to see them to criticize probably. And if you want to think bigger, we’ve got even more comic book movies than Comic Book Guy’s basement, from 300 to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to 30 Days of Night. Now if we could only find dates…
3. Spider-Man vs. Venom
While not picking favorites, Toby versus Topher will likely be the super-hero brawl of the year. Finally seeing Venom on the big screen, tongue lashing, tentacle swinging, 70’s Show joking, will make these many years of waiting, well, worth the waiting.

2. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Cross your fingers. Rub your rabbit’s foot. Pray to whatever deity or Jedi you worship in the hopes that the final Harry Potter finally arrives. Who dies? Why is Harry so special? Will Ron and Hermione finally get together? All these answers and more await in the final installment of this classic wizard’s tale that units geeks with 6 year olds around the world.
1. Google vs. Microsoft
The titans of the digital world are heading for a clash of historic proportions. Microsoft’s Vista and Office 2007 head to stores with a bevy of innovative gadgets, along with a redesigned online presence through Windows Live. But Google, thus far unbeatable in online search, has dozens of projects from online television to its own operating system and web browser rumored to be heading to the market. Google’s power even leads to outlandish idea of Yahoo and Microsoft merging. But if things get competitive enough, nothing would be too far. And that will be the most exciting thing to watch all-year-long.
