Killer Women of Sci-Fi - Nerd Nite

What this episode covers

Although tough guys tend to get all the attention, there are numerous badass women who kick ass throughout the pop culture, fantasy, and sci-fi universes. Cici James of Brooklyn's Singularity & Co Bookstore gives us a primer of some of the most killer women ever to grace the silver screen. Based on her Nerd Nite NYC presentation in December 2015, James shows us why women like Sarah Connor and the AI robots of Ex-Machina are both deadly and emotionally complex.
