This week on Keeping Up With The Nerds, the gang dives into a jam-packed lineup of major studio milestones, essential fall TV watchlists, and the toxic fandom surrounding Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil!

First up, the Nerds are officially recording from a brand-new space and celebrating their very first official sponsor! Coming to you from May Films Studios, the crew reflects on hitting this huge milestone and breaking in their new studio setup.

Then, Rene takes the floor to champion FX's show Adults, passionately breaking down why it’s a must-watch and trying to convince Nick and Bryan by comparing its vibes to New Girl. The TV talk continues as Nick and Bryan welcome the arrival of autumn the only way they know how: fresh coffee always ready and the streaming queue set for an all-out Gilmore Girls marathon.

Next, the crew turns their attention to Nathan Fielder's new documentary, You Can See Everything. The guys dive into why this project is such an eagerly anticipated release on Netflix and what fans can expect from Fielder's latest venture.

Finally, the show wraps up with a deep dive into Zach Cregger and Resident Evil. Despite the movie being hyped to death through relentless marketing, toxic fan backlash has reportedly bullied Cregger into vowing never to touch a franchise film again. The gang debates the state of modern movie fandom and asks whether audiences have officially gone too far—all this and more!

🎙️ May Films Studios Debut & First Sponsor: The Nerds celebrate securing their first official sponsor and settle into their brand-new recording home at May Films Studios.

🍂 Fall TV & Gilmore Girls Marathon: Rene pitches FX's Adults using New Girl vibes, while Nick and Bryan brew the coffee for their annual Gilmore Girls binge.

​This week on Keeping Up With The Nerds, Rene is finally back, and the gang is officially whole again!

 

First up, the Nerds catch up with Rene and get his fresh take on Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Then, the crew dives into the release of Star Wars Visions Presents: The Ninth Jedi to share their initial thoughts. While most of the gang is enjoying it so far, one Nerd might be a bit too critical—so, is it actually worth the watch?

 

That sparks a bigger debate: are we slipping back into Star Wars fatigue, or is there still incredible content on the horizon like Star Wars: Maul Shadow Lord keeping the hype alive? From there, with so much TV to catch up on, the Nerds try to convince Rene to finally check out Spider-Noir (can you believe he hasn't seen it yet?!).

 

Naturally, that leads into a massive tangent about Nicolas Cage and his iconic filmography as the gang breaks down their personal favorites. Finally, a walk down classic cinema leads into a discussion on essential war movies and which ones they would recommend watching first—all this and more!

 

🕷️ Rene’s Return & Spider-Man Brand New Day: The gang is whole again as Rene makes his return, sharing his thoughts on Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

⚔️ The Ninth Jedi & Star Wars Fatigue: The Nerds review Star Wars Visions Presents: The Ninth Jedi, debating whether critical takes are justified and if projects like Maul Shadow Lord prove Star Wars is still thriving.

🎬 Spider-Noir, Nic Cage & War Classics: The crew pressures Rene to watch Spider-Noir, dives into ranking Nicolas Cage’s entire filmography, and breaks down top war movie recommendations.

​This week on Keeping Up With The Nerds, we’re heading straight into the wild aftermath of San Diego Comic-Con with a stacked recap of the biggest announcements across movies, TV, and Marvel!

First up in the main event, the Nerds talk about San Diego Comic-Con and got a bunch of news to look forward to. Starting with the smaller (but still exciting) reveals for Spaceballs 2, a new Resident Evil movie trailer, and Johnny Depp as Ebenezer Scrooge in his new movie, Ebenezer. Beyond the big screen, we dive into the wild return of Mel Brooks, the bizarre parodies taking on modern cinematic universes, and why these classic comedy revivals are making noise again.

Then, Avatar: Seven Havens takes center stage alongside some other big hitters like Blade Runner 2099 and a new Lanterns trailer. We break down what the future looks like for the Avatar franchise, how Prime Video is expanding its sci-fi slate, and debate all the hidden details and lore clues buried inside DC's latest footage.

To top it all off, the Nerds spend the last part of the episode discussing Marvel's panel and the hype being built around Doomsday and... Ryan Gosling as Ghost Rider?! We break down the massive casting updates, character returns, multiverse theories, and what this means for the future of the MCU. Is Marvel finally back on track? Tune in to find out!

This week on Keeping Up With The Nerds, we’re setting sail across the Mediterranean and wandering right back into the radioactive Wasteland!

​First up in the main event, the Nerds dive deep into Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster epic, The Odyssey. We break down our favorite moments from the $250 million IMAX spectacle, where the visuals blew us away, and the few narrative beats that felt a bit bloated. Beyond the movie itself, we discuss the unbelievable behind-the-scenes production—including how Nolan somehow wrapped filming ahead of schedule despite shooting entirely on custom heavy IMAX cameras—and debate where this massive historical adaptation ultimately lands in the pantheon of Nolan’s filmography alongside Oppenheimer and The Dark Knight. ​

Then, we pivot to the absolute bombshell news shaking up the gaming industry: Xbox and Bethesda are finally getting forced out of auto-pilot! We break down how new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has lit a fire under Bethesda, pushing them to officially clarify the status of their heavily anticipated pipeline. That means real updates on Fallout 5, the long-rumored Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters, and where production currently stands with The Elder Scrolls VI. ​

To top it all off, Obsidian Entertainment has officially greenlit a brand-new Fallout project! We discuss the implications of shifting Obsidian back to the Wasteland, whether taking the IP out of sole BGS hands is the right move, and if this aggressive new direction is exactly what Xbox needs to reclaim its crown. Is this the strategy that finally turns the tide for Xbox? Tune in to find out!

 

​🎬 Sailing 'The Odyssey': The Nerds dive into Christopher Nolan's $250M IMAX epic—what worked, what fell flat, how production wrapped ahead of schedule, and where it ultimately ranks in his legendary filmography. ​

🎮 Xbox & Bethesda Forced Into Gear: We break down how Xbox's new CEO lit a fire under Bethesda, demanding official updates on Fallout 5, The Elder Scrolls VI, and the long-rumored Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters.

​⚛️ Obsidian Back in the Wasteland: Obsidian officially greenlights a brand-new Fallout project! Is handing the IP back to Obsidian the ultimate move to turn things around for Xbox?

​In this issue of Keeping Up With The Nerds, the guys catch up with Rene as he is set to return to the show (Permanently? 👀). The Nerds also talk about the movie Obsession and why 3/4 of them have yet to see it 🤷‍♂️. We also dive into Ready or Not 2 and They Will Kill You, and why you should probably watch these movies (now on streaming! 🍿🔪). World Cup fever has also caught up with Rene, and he questions why. ⚽🏆 Bryan explains how social media and "normies" finding their way into the sport have brought a massive resurgence of interest to the game 📈📱.

 

The main topic is Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and how, before the movie's release, certain people had already started to hate the film 🎬🚢. Is it a lack of historical accuracy? 🏛️ Is it that Nolan has gone woke? 🙄 Or are these people just wrong and hating to hate? 🗣️📉

 

👀 The Return (And The Unwatched): Rene is back (for good?), plus we break down why almost none of us have seen Obsession and why you need to stream Ready or Not 2 and They Will Kill You.

 

⚽ World Cup Fever: Bryan explains to a confused Rene how social media and "normies" have completely revitalized interest in the sport.

 

🎬 The Odyssey Backlash: We tackle the bizarre pre-release hate for Christopher Nolan's newest epic. Is it historically inaccurate, "woke," or just internet trolls hating to hate?
