A Geek's Guide To the Royal Wedding

With royal wedding fever breaking out like a zombie plague, it's hard to avoid William and Kate talk this week. While the sheer spectacle of it is kind of exciting, the event isn't particularly geek-friendly. Here are some tips on how to geek up your royal wedding viewing party.

Watch a Disney Princess movie marathon. (Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, etc.) Get into a nerdy argument about how several of the official Disney Princesses aren't technically Princesses. (Mulan was more of a warrior and calling Pocahontas a Princess is a reaaaal stretch.)

Make a "royal wedding" mix with songs from British indie band The Wedding Present, "Two Princes" by the Spin Doctors, "William It Was Really Nothing" by The Smiths, Prince, and the musical Kiss Me Kate.

Get crafty with the "knit your own royal wedding" kit.

Read the William and Kate comic.

Geek out over royal wedding minutia. Did you know that pubs in the U.K. are expected to serve over 100 million pints of beer?

Debate which Princess gets captured more-- Princess Peach Toadstool from Super Mario Bros. or Princess Zelda from The Legend of Zelda.

Drop $3,000 on a royal wedding fridge. That's taking your royal obsession to a whole new level.

Take in a double feature of Princess Mononoke and The Princess Bride for the ultimate nerdy Princess double feature.
