Welcome back everybody to the nerdschatting podcast!

As you know, we gather around every two weeks or so and talk about the latest cool movie, TV show, comic, book or game that everyone is watching or reading or playing. However sometimes, we like to take a look at those nerdy things that came before.   

Over the last two weeks, we have had a chat about Strange Days, and Split Second.

This week, Nerdschatting Presents Akira!

This podcast is a FULL SPOLIER CHAT - so watch the movie first, then listen.

Set in a dystopian 2019, Akira tells the story of Shōtarō Kaneda, the leader of a biker gang whose childhood friend, Tetsuo Shima, acquires incredible telekinetic abilities after a motorcycle accident, eventually threatening an entire military complex amidst chaos and rebellion in the sprawling futuristic metropolis of Neo-Tokyo.

Here's a trailer for the movie - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_MONOV1_sc

Last week, we had a chat about Strange Days. This week, Nerdschatting Presents Split Second!  

Split Second is a 1992 American-British buddy cop science fiction horror film starring Rutger Hauer.

Set in the year 2008, global warming and heavy rainfall has left large areas of London flooded. Rookie police officer Dick Durkin (Neil Duncan) is assigned to partner with Harley Stone (Rutger Hauer), a burnt-out and highly cynical veteran homicide detective who, according to his commanding officer, survives on "anxiety, coffee, and chocolate" after being unable to prevent the death of his partner Foster by a serial killer 3 years previously. Now, the murders have begun again and Stone is obsessed with the case.

Welcome back everybody to the nerdschatting podcast!

You know, we gather around every two weeks or so and talk about the latest cool movie, TV show, comic, book or game that everyone is watching or reading or playing. However sometimes, we like to take a look at those nerdy things that came before.   

So, for the next three weeks, we are talking about films that you may not have seen.

This week, Nerdschatting Presents Strange Days!  

Strange Days is a 1995 science fiction thriller directed by Kathryn Bigelow, written by James Cameron and starring Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett, Juliette Lewis, and Tom Sizemore.  

Set in the last two days of 1999, the film follows the story of a black marketeer of recordings, that allow a user to experience the recorder's memories and physical sensations, as he attempts to uncover the truth behind a brutal murder. 

The movie blends science fiction with film noir conventions, and explores themes such as racism, police corruption, abuse of power, murder, rape, and voyeurism.
