* [[The Spoony Experiment|The Spoony One's]] [http://spoonyexperiment.com/2009/02/19/fanboys-are-mine-to-toy-with-old-man/ response] to Roger Ebert's [http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090204/REVIEWS/902049987/1001 review] of the movie [[Fanboys]] involves acknowledging his own pot-shots at various geek fandoms (not the least of which is the Final Fantasy crowd) but ends with a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|rousing speech]] telling geeks not to be ashamed of who and what they are.
