2 Black Nerds

Whew...it has been a couple months hasn't it? As the earth has been in shambles Jordan and Desmund haven't been able to go to the movies, but there's always some nerd content to talk about. So they decided to host an IG Live talking about the things they could, new tv shows, movie delays, music drops, and of course the famous IG Live VERZUS created by Timbaland and Swizz Beats. Join the 2 Black Nerds in their first ever recording apart to discuss the climate of nerdom in these trying times.

What a weekend for music we just had! There was some really important projects that dropped from Jhené Aiko, Lil Uzi Vert, Megan Thee Stallion, and Jadakiss. Pixar's newest film Onward is out, the new My Hero Academia movie has dropped, and Ben Affleck's new flick The Way Back has hit theaters. There's Marvel news, DC news, and Kendrick decided to drop a...company? Tune in with Jordan and Desmund on this weeks episode as they hit on all these topics while trying to staying away from that Rona. Wash Your Hands. 

It's been a while since the 2 Black Nerds have been together, but boy do they have some things to talk about. On Monday morning the Oscar nominations dropped. Most nominations make sense, but for a year that was amazing in film, there's too much missing. Join Jordan and Desmund as they discuss the nominations, that are still super white and super male. 

Although we live in the golden age of comic book movies, there are still many mistakes being made. This is not to tear down anyone who loves or even has contributed to making these films but these are Jordan and Desmund's worst comic book films of the decade. Keep in mind that this list i tiered based on expectation and may not reflect the complete quality of the movie compared to others on the list. Enjoy.

This is the season one finale 2 Black Nerds!! In light of the huge nerd event known as the 2019 Comic Con Experience, held in São Paulo, Brazil, there were half a dozen trailer that were dropped over the past week. Black Widow, Mulan, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, No Time To Die, The Boys Season 2, and Wonder Woman 1984. Jordan and Desmund share their reactions and takes over all of these promising trailers. Netflix has released another potential award season contender with Marriage Story which they break down spoiler free, and they do the same as we again peek into the life of the legend Mr. Rogers in the film A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. Plus, these Golden Globe nominations though...? 

Jordan and Desmund unpack the movie that is the talk of the town, Queen & Slim. 

Not too much news this week, but Jordan and Desmund were able to check out the long awaited 'The Irishman', and the successor to a success Frozen II. Were they as good as anticipated?
