Movie Scientists Blogathon Day 1 Recap – The Good

Written by

A terrific first day with the Movie Scientist blogathon. Check out these fantastic entries!

Mad scientists get all the press. Everyone loves a good mad scientist. But what about a good good scientist? I think it has been proven conclusively today that good scientists abound in film and are every bit as charismatic, brilliant, romantic, fascinating and fun as their mad counterparts.

Thanks everyone for your incredibly thoughtful, thought-provoking, and scintillating entries!

Hong Kong CavaliersThe Midnite Drive-In goes bonkers with The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension.

sis-vivaciouslady-24Sister Celluloid gives us the backstory of Vivacious Lady, while showing that scientists are romantic, too.
