More info about Daniel
The creator, idea author and programmer of the Geekified website. Occasional content creator. Most of the time I’m the quiet warrior – fighting (virtual) bugs and constantly improving website look & feel.
Concerning geeky stuff interests – I’m a bit of everything – with unusual deep interests into certain subjects. Like, I’m pretty sure I know all the Easter Eggs  in Portal 2 that many of people just miss by rushing through the game. In addition I’m a complete music lover with pretty eclectic music taste. Anything from House to Heavy Metal music genre and everything in between! If there are many styles mixed up – even better! Plus, I’m acknowledged as an audiophile.

Favourite games: Sonic franchise (especially the classic games), Valve (Portal, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead series) and racing games. On my STEAM wishlist you could find mostly indie, platforming games like Ori and the Blind Forest, Rayman Legends, Rocket League.

Favouritebands/artists: Nine Inch Nails, Julien-K, Shinedown, Fall Out Boy, Depeche Mode, I Wear* Experiment, Andrius Mamontovas, Golden Parazyth, Dead By Sunrise, Crush 40, Muse, Adam Lambert, Lady Gaga, Nightwish, Deadmau5, Thievery Corporation, GusGus, Vanilla Ninja, Mindless Self Indulgence, Evanescence, Madeon. (favourite list constantly changes).

Favourite TV series/cartoons: Regular Show, Gravity Falls, Friends, LOST, House M.D., Desperate Housewifes, Bing Bang Theory, Courage The Cowardly Dog, Twin Peaks, The Simpsons, Shaun The Sheep, CSI series.

If there is any major animated movie – there is 99% chance I saw it. I love them! Only because of that it deserves separate list.
Favourite animated movies: Shrek (1 & 2), Madagascar (1 & 2), How To Train Your Dragon series, almost all Pixar movies, Zootopia/Zootropolis (the best animated Disney movie since The Lion King), Lion King, Bolt, Chicken Run, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Wreck-It Ralph, etc.

I do enjoy and love most of superheroes movies but, I also love movies who might not be considered geek at all.
Favourite movies: Harry Potter series, Hot Fuzz, Shaun Of The Dead, Paul, Interstellar, Little Miss Sunshine, (500) days of summer, Adam, The Terminal, Detachment, The Truman Show, Yes Man, Lost In Translation, Eagle Eye, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Twelve Monkeys, The Matrix, The Green Mile, Super 8, Kill Bill, Avatar, Inception, Prisoners, Forrest Gump, Life Of Pi, RED.

More info about Chris
I am an overly enthusiastic maniac of all things pop-cultural. Professionally: a translator (presently creating subtitles for Netflix), and a specialist in Japanese Studies, casually, an avid film watcher, tv shows addict, comic books fan and books zealot. I tend to have unpopular opinions as I always stubbornly try to see the positive. I love superheroes (especially those from DC Comics) and could spend all my time watching (or rewatching) “Lost”, “Buffy”, “Twin Peaks”, “Penny Dreadful” and “Once Upon a Time”. I also love computer games, especially Ragnar Tørnquist’s “The Longest Journey.” And, most importantly, I love sharing my thougths (however strange and geeky those may seem) with people. Besides writing for Geekified, I also have a blog in Polish.

I am a writer and blogger who also runs a small publishing label Seventh Realm Productions. I’ve written sci-fi and fantasy novels which I have self-published in more recent years and also keep blogs on things that interest me such as new films/games/geek events and anything Sonic related. I love my music and follow several metal bands. I enjoy few things more than being at the front of a crowd cheering for my favourite band!

Hello!

Manuel, here. I mostly go by Manny. Nowadays I’m struggling to find the time to read, write, and even game – I might just figure out a way to either time warp or to go on without sleeping. I enjoy a whole array of different games. Often I look far too much into the mechanics of games (EX: Mass Effect 3: Multiplayer). Made up of OCD, cupcakes, and a Snowshoe cat that won’t stop biting cables.

It’s really encouraging to be invited to be a part of Geekfield! I’ll try to bring my writing over and share to the community. Meanwhile, I’ll be working on publishing a Novel.

Keep dreaming,
Manny
