The Nerd Cut

16/08/2022

Recording day, and it's the long-awaited Stranger Things discussion episode.

We chat about some of the bad and a whole lotta good that comes with one of the top TV shows of modern times.

And Jonny and Andrew get pitted against one another for title of biggest Stranger Things nerd. Who will win?

13/08/2022

We back, reviewing the two latest entries in the flailing MCU:
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
and
Thor: Love and Thunder

Are they any good, or do they follow the downward trend of Marvel films through Phase 4?

Did the horror elements of Doctor Strange haunt Andrew's dreams?
Does Jonny's love/hate relationship with Taika Watiti look to be improving?
And does Christian manage to get through an episode without mentioning Lovecraft or Cthulhu?

May the 4th be with you, or is it Revenge of the 6th today? 🤔 In either case, happy Star Wars day!

And it's the 1st anniversary of our debut episode, where we kicked off The Nerd Cut with some Star Wars film discussion.

Well, a year on, we're back for some positive Star Wars memories. We've been a little down on Star Wars lately, so we decided to have a chat about the good times!

Includes a mini review of The Book of Boba Fett.

The Nerds are back for a chinwag...

A new occasional episode format where rather than discussing a particularly deep topic, we shall discuss some recent news from the Geek World. The effects, the implications, the causes. Who knows what kind of conversation it may breed?

This week, we talk recent geeky box office returns, Warner Bros. future with DC, and of course, a bit of Star Wars. A future Episode X? And Darth Vader himself binging The Clone Wars animated series...Good lad 😎👍

And thank you very much to Francesca Apicella Art for producing superb animated versions of the 3 Nerds. Jonny in the style of The Simpsons. Andrew as a character from Family Guy. And Christian, going down to South Park.

We're back. Year Two. Episode Two.

Discussing the state of superhero films, and where they might go from here on. After the success of The Batman 🦇 and the flagging box-office receipts for some recent Marvel films, has the zeitgeist changed?

This, and other important questions, such as:
Is Andrew formulaic?
What does Jonny find "world-beating"?
And just how much is Christian receiving through incessant advertising?

All will be revealed here:

It's recording day...

We're talking superhero films once again. In the aftermath and clear success of The Batman - despite all the darkness and angst it contains - have the scales tipped away from the lighter tone of the Marvel films? Is the general film audience ready for a new kind of superhero film? Where do they go from here, and can Marvel once again capture the zeitgeist?

Let's discuss.

Been missing your fix of wholesome nerdiness? Well babies, don't you panic☝

The Nerd Cut is back with Year Two!

Rather fitting then that we are reviewing The Batman, where we find Bruce Wayne also in his second year of crime fighting.

How long does Andrew go before discussing the musical score? 🎹🎵
Could this film finally get Christian reading a few comics? 📖
And does Batfleck still hold the top spot in Jonny's heart, or has BatPat taken over?🦇
