Wednesday, March 27th, 2013
The Wolverine is one of the upcoming comic book movies I have most been interested in. Where we know Iron Man 3, Thor 2, etc will all be great sequels The Wolverine has had the feeling of it could be as shitty as Origins was. Based off of the trailer, and everything I’ve been reading [...]

Tuesday, February 5th, 2013
Personally I’ve been a big fan of all of Rob Zombies movies, including the Halloween “remakes” he did as of late, plus one can’t deny how great of a film The Devils Rejects is. Because of this I am extremely excited to see his take on the Salem Witch history in his new film The [...]

Satan’s Soldier: The Movie from Tom Scioli

Friday, February 1st, 2013
The most recent web comic from the always awesome Tom Scioli, Satan’s Soldier has been a thrill ride of stylistic departure and artistic experimentalism. Scioli has used Soldier to continue to push the boundaries of what we can expect from his as a creator, as well as what a person can expect from the web [...]

Friday, January 4th, 2013
Today we get our first look at the official Red Band trailer for the upcoming Evil Dead movie and I think it’s quite impressive. Without going the reboot route I think this new movie will offer up a nice chapter in the Evil Dead series and based off of the look of the trailer we [...]

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Jurassic Park, Universal Pictures and Steven Spielberg will be bringing it back to the big screen with a beautiful new transfer and post conversion 3D. Normally post conversion 3D isn’t the best but as of late, see The Amazing Spider-Man and positive Titanic reviews, the process has been getting [...]

Thursday, November 8th, 2012
One of the major contributors to the Nerdiest summer in movie history,”The Amazing Spider-man” swings (get it?) on to Blu-Ray and DVD this Friday, Nov. 9th. Combatting origin fatigue with fresh, from-the-ground up reinterpretation, “Amazing” is well-cast, well-told, and awesome.

“John Dies at the End“, the new film by Phantasm and Bubba Ho-Tep director Don Coscarelli, has been on Nerd City’s radar for a while.

“The Selling”

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2012
One of the best things about being a Nerd is the ability to endlessly gloat amongst your friends (those that you have) about having been “the first” to discover something. Whatever the medium, there is nothing quite like the thrill of dropping an “uh…yah” on the uninitiated, before it was, you know, cool. With that [...]

With a guaranteed unique perspective and aesthetic (both in-film and promotion), the most bad-ass movie soundtrack in years (listen to it here), and Kung [...]

Recently, Nerd City’s very own Mike Haynes and Max Minor descended upon Universal Studios Hollywood, and I’ll tell you right now, “we’ll be back”. Legitimately righteous, Universal is the perfect destination for a well-deserved Nerdcation (tax-return related or otherwise). The place is just chock full of shit Nerds like (present company included). A truly hilarious [...]
