Where do fans go for fun?

At Imagination Connoissuers Unlimited, LLC (ICU), our success depends on our ability to occasionally tap into fandom and generate the enthusiasm and economic returns necessary to sustain our operation. Combining fan enthusiasm with the creative vision of a studio like ICU has great potential.

Whether it’s fans writing letters to bring back Star Trek from cancellation in the 1960s or Zack Snyder fans taking to the Internet to encourage Warner Bros. to spend tens of millions of dollars so Snyder could release his version of JUSTICE LEAGUE … fandom is a force to be respected.

Far too many studios take fandom for granted, allowing it to grow independently and with little to no supervision.

Welcome to the Post-Geek Singularity

Our roots lie in fandom, however.

Fan interaction is organic to the studio and its approach to genre entertainment. And the fan community Burnett and Bawden created, known as The Post-Geek Singularity (PGS), serves as the foundation for their studio and future productions.

With more than 65,000 known members, the PGS is the most inclusive and supportive community of fans online today.

Members are known as “Imagination Connoisseurs” (a term coined by Burnett nearly ten years ago) and hold deep interests in a wide variety of pop culture traditions and media. The PGS is a community where fans and creators mix and mingle.

Of course, there is strong interest in “traditional” genre franchises (e.g., Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel), but there is also a shared love and interest in lesser genres — from Korean Horror Films to disastrous 1970s TV (Do you remember Manimal?).

The PGS is a significant part of the “secret recipe” that makes ICU special.
