The Geek Down

Pat was refreshed to see this different take on the spy thriller genre. Agent Lorraine Broughton (Charlize Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on an impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to retrieve a priceless dossier from within the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through a deadly game of spies.

Jonny couldn't contain himself about this one. We're not really sure he even TRIED to! Forge your own path in Hollow Knight! An epic action adventure through a vast ruined kingdom of insects and heroes. Explore twisting caverns, battle tainted creatures and befriend bizarre bugs, all in a classic, hand-drawn 2D style.

Pat actually got his hopes up for this one. ...Silly man. Autobots and Decepticons are at war, with humans on the sidelines. Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Now, it's up to the unlikely alliance of inventor Cade Yeager, Bumblebee, an English lord and an Oxford professor to save the world.

It got psycadelic with this one. Either that or our drinks were spiked... Pat gives his impressions on Space Riders. Colonel Conley is training new recruits when he receives a transmission from a long lost friend. The SPACE RIDERS have to get their sh** together and find the source of the signal. It leads them to the OMEGA STRUCTURE, the place where GODS GO TO DIE!

This one was a touch call. While it's not the Brendan Fraser Mummy movie, it's also not the SECOND Brendan Fraser Mummy movie. An ancient princess is awakened from her crypt beneath the desert, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia, and terrors that defy human comprehension.

Jonny had an interesting reaction to Mages of Mystralia, an action-adventure video game developed and published by Borealys Games. In a world of magic, your mind is your greatest weapon. Learn the ways of magic and design your own spells to fight enemies, navigate treacherous terrain, and right past wrongs in the kingdom of Mystralia.

Pat enjoyed this story or rockstars meeting rednecks in an alternate take on Earth. In New York, a young musician, Soledad, has just released a new gramophone album, which a small Presbyterian group, led by the very media-friendly reverend Fox, has taken vehement exception to. They don't put up with the singer's push for Women's rights over abortion. Assaulted during a show, she takes refuge at her agent's home, that of Fourmille Gratule.

The latter will accompany Soledad and her group in an animated tour, which will take them south to New Orleans and the truth...

We pay our respects and fondly remember Adam West. West was an American actor widely known for his role as Batman in the 1960s ABC series of the same name and its 1966 theatrical feature film. His career spanned 63 years. West began acting in films in the 1950s.

Thumper is rhythm violence: classic rhythm-action, blistering speed, and brutal physicality. You are a space beetle. Brave the hellish void and confront your nemesis: a maniacal giant head. Play in ultra-glossy 2D or fully immersive VR. Crazy beetles racing through neon environments and all while COMPLETELY SOBER! Jonny had a solid time playing Thumper for the Nintendo Switch and VR and gives the full breakdown.

Pat learned a hard lesson about giving the benefit of the doubt. Much like a stockholm-stricken victim he walked into the 5th installment of the Pirates franchise with hopes as high as the seas, only to have them dashed on the rocks below. Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Capt. Jack Sparrow feels the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost sailors led by his old nemesis, the evil Capt. Salazar, escape from the Devil's Triangle. Jack's only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it, he must forge an uneasy alliance with a brilliant and beautiful astronomer and a headstrong young man in the British navy.
