The world finally gets a trailer for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY, but was it worth the wait?

This week the Nerds discuss the would-be, should-be event of DOOMSDAY. We break down the trailer, from returning characters, to the new reveals, the costumes and make-up choices, and the state of the MCU itself. Has the recent output from Marvel lowered audiences expectations?

What we are excited for is the recent announcement that THE PRESTIGE will have a re-release in January 2027 in 70MM!

And the latest trailer for DC’s CLAYFACE may have won one of us over!

Then we arrive at our feature discussion as we review Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY!

From the monsters, to the cast and characters, to our favorite moments, we cover it all (but careful, some spoilers abound).

All that and we get a mercifully quick take on the live-action MOANA, and Ed catches William Friedkin’s classic thriller, SORCERER in the theater!

All that and more, so sit back, relax and listen (or watch) our latest ep. Don’t forget to follow, like and subscribe wherever you find your pods, on youtube, and on social media! Don’t forget to leave a comment. Stay Tuned for more next week!

This week we discuss the latest Bloomberg article reporting Netflix’s drop in show viewership by the time of a second season drop. Is the streaming giant to blame for losing its own audience?

This week - the holy war begins with the first, full trailer for DUNE PART THREE!

We’re joined by our good friend and Westerosi expert Stephen Escobar to help us in our feature discussion, but before that we revel in the sheer scope and craft shown in the new DUNE 3 trailer, and cannot wait for its release in December.

Then we come to our feature discussion, catching up on episodes 2 & 3 from HOUSE OF THE DRAGON’s season 3. Has the show been holding up to expectations? How does it compare to the source material? Stephen fills us in (and more).
