Nerd Apporoved : Cinemassacre.com

Marq posted the Trek-no-babble earlier this month, which comes from James at Cinemassacre.com This is the home of many Sci-Fi and Horror movie reviews, as well as some short clips about nerd culture, "you know what's bullshit" rants, and my favorite feature, the Angry Video Game Nerd. Here is one of my very favorite episodes, Entitled "NES Accessories"

Hey look! Another Trek post!

Yes, another trek post. FU, Iam drunk. This video is weird but cool. TOS remake to sell chicken, but done very faithfully. All the actors seem very close to their TOS counterparts, their differences hidden in shadow. Mmmmm. Chicken.

Futurama is back

For your consideration. Futurama's humor didn't reach the height of the Simpsons, but it also never reached the depths. There are some long running plot threads (involving time travel, becoming your own grandfaher, and missing brainwaves) that make the show feel like one big story. Yesterday Comedy Central Ordered New 'Futurama' Episodes. I'm happy for the new episodes, but really all this does is give a dying ember of hope to those Firefly and Arrested Development nerds. Shame on you comedy central.

Shit I Found In My Garage, Part 1


The past few weeks I have been slowly cleaning out my garage. Inside there were several large boxes that I had not opened since I moved in over three years ago. Most of them I had not opened since I moved into the house where I lived before, or even at my apartment before that. I lugged these cardboard behemoths around with me all my adult life. Why? Because these boxes held my Collectibles! All the great stuff I had amassed during my Nerd heyday in the late 90's.

What the hell was I thinking!? Going through these boxes made me feel dirty, and I desperately wanted to get clean.

I've purged nearly all of it now, and stand before you a free man. This series of posts will chronicle the stuff I chose to keep, for one reason or another, rather than the stuff I threw away. Y'know, cool stuff like this Batman mask*(shown). I actually wish I could show it all but I didn't think to take pictures of the stuff I threw away.

*Not me in the pic, just one of my mysterious friends.

Nerd Alert Episode 6 : Star Trek Pregame Show


On Episode 6, we talk about the new Star Trek movies, and our different expectations for them. We talk about Mission Impossible 1, 2 and 3. Shakespearean Biggotry. Starcraft. Lou Diamond Phillips and Emilio Estevez. The NES Star Trek game. Ex-girlfriends are into Felicity. Star Trek. Star Wars. Galaxy Quest. More Star Trek. Heroes. Star Trek. Lost. Then more Star Trek. Jonpaul tries to get Mark to talk about other things, but it turns out, that all he wants to talk about it Star Trek, so we talk about that. There's a little echo on the last half of the podcast from Jonpaul's mic. He kindly asks you to deal with it, as this is a month overdue already.

TOS Producer Reviews New Trek

Yes. Another Star Trek post.

Herb Solow, executive producer on The Original Series, reviewed the new movie. It's a quick read from an interesting perspective. I kind of wish he would have gone into more detail about the new and old actors, but oh well. Check it out anyway.

And what do you guys think of the new banner?
