Chris and Graham welcome comic, co-host of the Paul Goebel show and SNL freelance writer Jim Bruce.  Graham liked Side Effects even though it caugh him off gaurd.  Jim says that it is ok for guys to like Les Miserables.  Then a solid discussion about hard science fiction and the films that use it well.  Some good DVDs this week like Fred and Vinnie.  And a cage match between Josh Duhamel and Bruce Willis.  Nerd it up!

Chris and Graham welcome themselves into the garage!  Three different guest all got sick so it's a guestless episode.  Graham thought Warm Bodies was all over the place and it is a DVD rental at best.  Chris was thouroughly impressed with the Oscar nominated documentary 5 Broken Cameras.  The boys give some updates about the LA Podcast Festival Oct. 4-6, 2013.  Flight is available on DVD if you missed it in the theaters.  Along with some other DVDs.  Two decent looking films coming out this weekend and much more!  This ep will cure your cold!

Chris and Graham welcome Matt Mogk from the Zombie Research Society.  Matt talks about all the solid work that ZRS is doing along with make makes a good Zombie film.  Graham had no problem with the fact that Parker was exactly what you thought it was.  Chris was completly let down by John Dies at the End.  Graham thought Broken City was fine until it went off the rails and became a stupid farm.  Then Matt and the boys have a nice discussion on some of the greatest Zombie films of all time.  A couple of decent DVDs this week and a Zombie professional opinion on the upcoming Warm Bodies.  This episode will infect you like a virus and make you hungry for human flesh.

Chris and Graham welcome back comic/author Stefanie Wilder-Taylor for some nerd filled hyjinks! Stefanie talks about her new TV show on Nick Jr.  Graham thought Gangster Squad was a little cartoonish.  Stefanie didn't like Perks of Being a Wallflower.  Chirs liked Naomi Watts in The Impossible but thought the film was just ok.  Stefanie didn't like Flight, but had some other issues to deal with.  DVD's and not much for new releases!  It's the blood diamond of episodes!

Chris and Graham welcome first time guest Beth Littleford into the Nerd HQ.  Beth talks about being on the early days of The Daily Show.  Graham liked Zero Dark Thirty.  Beth was bored at Les Miserables but thinks that if you are a fan of musicals you will like it.  Chris thought Matt Damon did a nice job with Promised Land, but not sure it is Oscar worthy.  Beth was dissapointed with This is 40 and Anna Karenina.  Chris was blown away (NOT in a good way) with Jet Li's train wreck, The Sorcerer and the White Snake.  Not great DVD choices but Gangster Squad comes out this weekend.  It's the Crazy Stupid Love of nerdyness!

SPOILER ALERT! (This epsiode will reveal the ending and other info.  Only listen if you have seen the film) Jackie and Chris get into the specifics of the film, while Graham politely asks questions.  They talk about the ending, and what the next two films will bring.  It is a nerd-a-thon for Hobbit fans!

Chris and Graham welocme back nerd writer Jackie Kashian!  They talk about why Jack Reacher is a great movie, if you are living in 1998.  Jackie loved the Hobbit and so did Chris but thought is was a little long.  Django Unchanined was good in Graham's eyes, but all would like to see Quentin do a film that is not so 1970's centric.  Many a tease for the 2nd part Hobbit Spoiler episode.  Only two films in Theaters and on DVD this week.  A little light, but who cares cause it's all Hobbit!

Happy Holidays because it's the year end CFN special!  Chris and Graham take time to thank all of you fans who listen and enjoy the show.  They talk about some of their favorite films from 2012.  And thanks to all who work on the site and help make CFN great!  We couldn't do any of it without all of you! See you in 2013!!

It's long time friend but first time guest Wayne Federman talking films in the nerd HQ! Wayne tells us what a "Federman and out" is and why he did not like Cloud Atlas.  Graham liked Hitchcock, but didn't love it.  Chris thought A Dark Truth was directed by a 4 year old.  Then Wayne talks about some of the films he's been in like the new Maria Bamford special!  A bunch of DVDs this week and some interesting films in theaters.  It's better than being a dumb married couple at a comedy show!
