My Geek Confessions #174 – 11/13/2015
Welcome to our episode for November 13, 2015!
It’s a slow week but we still have plenty to offer! We have new trailers, Jem and the Holograms gets kicked out of theaters after two weeks, Late Night hits it out of the park this week with segments from Stephen Colbert, James Corden, and John Oliver, and CEO of Time Warner wants to prevent DC TV shows from streaming services even though that helped them be popular.
Then in Talk Nerdy to Me, William Shatner wants a Star Trek musical and so do we, Bob Ross comes to Twitch, Show by Rock!! is back for a second season, and Jeff Goldblum has a great set of ads to help you through the holidays.
It’s a video heavy episode, so we apologize in advance.

“My Geek Confessions – Watching Bad Movies, So You Don’t Have To!”
* We have some big trailers for you this week! First is the first teaser trailer for Finding Dory where Dory is actually remembering things! Next is what is sure to just make conspiracy theorist freak out even more with Moonwalkers as they try to fake the moon landing but we’re already interested with the cast of Rupert Grint and Ron Perlman. Last is the trailer My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 which looks really fun but makes us feel really old at the same time.
* A copyright claim lawsuit for stolen lyrics against Taylor Swift was tossed in the most epic way possible. Check our link below for more details.
A ridiculous Taylor Swift dismissal order is the only way to toss out a ridiculous Taylor Swift #copyright lawsuit. pic.twitter.com/5JAc7iAzVz

* John Oliver on Last Week Tonight takes the Washington Redskins to task for their defense of why they should keep their offensive trademark. It’s easy to see both sides, but when your defense is “We’re not as bad as these ones”, it’s time to think of a better defense.
* Alanis Morissette and James Corden update the lyrics for her song “Ironic” in for a new generation. Honestly I like the new version better.
* Stephen Colbert had some great bits this week! First is a great segment about TV censors and how their rules aren’t consistent at all, with the best part coming at the end with the smiley face. Second, Stephen Colbert teamed up with Liam Neeson to show what a Candy Crush movie might be like with the puns and references flying everywhere along with brightly colored red outfits.
* Jeff Goldblum has a great series of ads for Curry’s PC World over in the United Kingdom about giving acting lessons to properly show how to react to gift giving and receiving for the holidays. It’s a shame that they aren’t playing on television here in the states!
* Cloud Strife joined Super Smash Brothers as a DLC and debuted with a new trailer to show off his moves.
* Funimation released a trailer for the dubbed release of Terror in Resonance. Check out Krista’s review of the original subbed release.
