August Trailer Trash https://nerdologists.com/2021/08/august-trailer-trash/ https://nerdologists.com/2021/08/august-trailer-trash/#respond Tue, 17 Aug 2021 17:53:11 +0000 https://nerdologists.com/?p=6036 It's time to look at the Trailers that are coming out in the month of August. Join with me as I nerd out.

The post August Trailer Trash first appeared on Nerdologists.]]>
It’s a new series, that I’m working on throughout the month, we’re watchin movie, TV show, and whatever trailers catch my fancy and I’m doing one massive post on them. I’ll be updating this throughout the month, so it’s going to be on the news side panel be sure to check back on it, but we got to kick it off with some Star Wars Visions and it’s trailer.

August 24th

Spider-Man: No Way Home

Yes, it’s finally here. We get to see Spider-Man No Way Home. And this trailer looks crazy in a good way. As a lot of reviewers of these things who do breakdowns have pointed out, it looks like we might be getting Sinister Six set-up for this or at least something across the multiverse. This trailer has a lot going on in it, but mainly seems to be a Spiderverse set-up and borrow from the comics One More Day. In One More Day Aunt May is shot and dying, so Spider-Man goes to Strange to save her. He says no, so he makes a deal with Mephisto, unfortunately that undoes Peter and MJ’s marriage and causes everyone to forget him. It’s not a well love story, I thought it was okay, but definitely borrowing from that.

Nightbooks

Honestly, knew nothing about this before watching the trailer. And after watching the trailer, I have to say this looks odd. I’m not sure what I think about it, I’m not sure if it’s based on anything, though, I’m guessing it is. This looks like a true horror film but it also looks like kids on bikes sort of film. Looks like a bit of a confused mess, but we’ll see when reviews come out.

August 19th

The Eternals

Anything Marvel and I’m going to be interested. And I thought that the first trailer was good, but this one sells me on it more. It definitely gives you more plot for what is going on in the movie. And I think with The Eternals that was needed. It would be too easy to just rely on the Marvel name, and I think they do a good job of balancing it. Showing us some plot but not too much. Especially for characters that average Marvel fans don’t know. Even I only know some about them. But this looks really cool and I feel like there’ll be a good payoff, going forward, for this film.

August 17th

Star Wars Visions

So quick little breakdown of what this is. It’s an anime style anthology show with different anime studios creating Star Wars stories. It is coming out with the first episode on September 22nd.

This looks amazing and crazy all that the same time. It is truly anime not like My Neighbor Totoro, but like Cowboy Bebop, Gurren Lagann and more. The animation looks simply amazing throughout this whole thing and it seems like it is going to have sweet little episodes about family and pod racing to crazy lightsaber battles and high stakes. I don’t know if all the episodes will be amazing, but I am really excited to check this out.

Stranger Things Season 4

Yes, another show that I’m extremely excited for with a tiny bit of new footage, let’s talk about Stranger Things season 4. Stranger Things obviously hasn’t been around for too long and we don’t have a release date for it yet. It just says 2022. Note that all seasons of Stranger Things have been around different holidays, Christmas, Halloween, and the 4th of July. I hope and it’s been speculated that they put a 2022 date on it because it’s going to drop around New Years, fingers crossed.

I’m ready to hang out with these kids on bikes again, and I’ll be curious to see what they do with the experiments and taking Eleven back to where it first started. There is a garbage book that does some of the history of what happened, but I’d skip it, it’s a very poor ripoff. But I’d maybe checkout the book Firestarter by Stephen King to see where some inspiration might be drawn from if things go back in time a little bit. Plus when will Hopper come back?

Ghostbusters: Afterlife

So, I wasn’t extremely interested in the previous Ghostbusters reboot or twist. Nothing drew me into the story that they were telling. It seemed like Ghostbusters all over again, which the people we already knew but different people playing them. This, on the other hand, seems to be building upon the Ghostbusters lore, for better or worse. And I think there’s something about 80’s nostalgia now that just is seen best through the eyes of kids. I’m genuinely interested in this film. Will I see it in theaters, very unlikely, but do I want to watch it as a $5 rental, sure.

Malts and Meeples: Marvel United Unboxing https://nerdologists.com/2021/04/malts-and-meeples-marvel-united-unboxing/ https://nerdologists.com/2021/04/malts-and-meeples-marvel-united-unboxing/#respond Thu, 01 Apr 2021 13:10:44 +0000 https://nerdologists.com/?p=5512 It's time to break into all 10 boxes that I have gotten for Marvel United and show off all of the amazing minis. Join me as I unbox Marvel United from CMON.

The post Malts and Meeples: Marvel United Unboxing first appeared on Nerdologists.]]>
It’s happening, it’s time for the massive Marvel United Unboxing! So many characters to checkout. So many boxes to open, and oh so many minis. Join me as I open up a ton of boxes and drink a beer.

The Game

Only one game today, and it’s Marvel United. But there is a lot of it to be unboxed. Next week I want to play a game of it, to be determined which of the expansions to show how it works on stream. I already played the base game two weeks ago, which you can see here. But the expansions add more to the game, more complexity and more challenges. Plus there are obviously a whole lot more villains.

Marvel United is a cooperative game where the players take on a villain. Each villain has their own schemes and plans for how they play, from a very simple villains like Red Skull to a more complex one like Ronan, you have a ton of different options to face. And you have a ton of different heroes to bring in. The base game can have you playing as Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Hulk, Ant-Man, Wasp, or more. Or you have different expansions with a ton of characters.

The Expansions
  • Asgardian Expansion
  • Black Panther Expansion
  • Guardians of the Galaxy Expansion
  • Spiderverse Expansion
  • Infinity Saga Expansion
  • Sinister Six Expansion
  • Kickstarter Exclusive Characters

Next week I’ll be playing one of those expansions.

The Brew

Local beer today from Steel Toe Brewing located in St. Louis Park MN. They have a line of beers that are all “Size” something. The stream drink was Size 7, an IPA. It is 7% ABV and 77 IBU, international bitterness units. The classification of an IPA comes from back when Britain was colonizing the world. IPA stands for India Pale Ale, and the reason it has it’s classification is that hops are a natural preservative. So when they wanted to get good old British beer to far away places, they’d load up the beer with hops in order to have it not go bad.

Let me know in the comments below what expansion you think I should play with next week.

The post 10 Minute Marvel Episode 32: The Power of Voodoo, Who Do? Brother Voodoo first appeared on Nerdologists.]]>

Starting off with the news, there’s a new superhero team in town that you can pick up at your friendly local comic book store (or digitally) tomorrow (February 18th). Plus, some talk from Sony about what future films might be coming in their Spider-verse that they are building.

For the main topic, I’m digging into a character who might be showing up in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness according to some rumors that I talked about last week. That is Brother Voodoo, who do, he does. I look at his skill set in the comics and how Marvel might consider using him in the MCU. And there are some interesting powers that he has which might make a lot of sense for the MCU.

I just want to thank everyone who is checking out the podcast, it’s exciting for me to see monthly that the podcast is growing and I hope that you are all enjoying it.

The post 10 Minute Marvel Episode 27: Morbius and Spider-Man first appeared on Nerdologists.]]>

There’s a chunk of news to start off, first we’re getting some new Black Widow footage, but that was airing after I recorded the episode, so go track it down now. Instead, the news focuses on a Marvel movie, but not one in the MCU, instead the trailer for Morbius from Sony has released, and then I talk about a rumor that has been debunked for the Disney+ Hawkeye show.

The main topic for the show is the 1990’s Spider-Man animated show. This is a show that I loved watching as a child, even without having TV, whenever we were at someone’s place, I hoped that I’d be able to catch an episode, and I did a pretty good job of catching a lot of them. In particular, I talk about a memorable arc for me as it was one of the first super hero team-ups that I saw.
