The Watch-men | A Nerdy Movie & TV Review Podcast

There’s something out there, and it ain’t no original property. On this week’s episode, the Watch-men use the latest Predator sequel as a launching point for a discussion on the original alien versus Schwarzenegger flick. Sam, Matt and Joyce also take a closer look at Hollywood’s obsession with remakes and reboots. Prepare to be unsurprised by the long list of nostalgia baiting shows we found that are set to re-make an appearance on a screen near you!

The Watch-Men are back together again! This week is part exploration and part nostalgia as we discuss our favourite movie soundtracks and scores. Did we include your favourites? Tune in and find out!

While Joyce enjoys a post-snap, ash-laden, vacation holiday, Matt and Sam get into the nitty-gritty news and issues of the Hollywood Summer. What are the biggest box office hits and misses? What's the next step for the #metoo movement? Will James Gunn work again? And is Chris Pratt really a bonafide leading man? All this and more on this week's Watch-men Podcast.

The world is in danger again and we're reunited with Ethan Hunte and the IMF crew who are, once again, trying to save the day. The Watch-men podcast review the latest installment in this 2 decade franchise and answer a very important question: was Henry Cavill's mustache integral to the plot?

On this week's episode, the Watch-men play catch up with a review of Incredibles 2 and revisit a decade where smoking was still allowed on airplanes(!) with a look back to 1996's Mission: Impossible.

Comic Con 2018 took place over the weekend in San Diego and the Watch-men are here to recap and review the top trailers which dropped during the celebrations. Plus, Sam, Matt and Joyce also touch on the firing of Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn in the news this week.

This week Joyce is joined by special guest, Maura, to have a discussion on the current state of fandom, why it becomes toxic and how we can understand it. Listen as Maura and Joyce try and figure out why fans hate what they love so much and some basic tenets of nerd-dom.

Like a refreshing post meal mint, Ant-Man and the Wasp is Marvel's attempt at a palate cleanser after the calorie rich Infinity Wars. But is the promise of Paul Rudd Paul Rudd-ing and Evangeline Lilly kicking butt with a giant salt shaker enough to win the Watch-men over? Sam, Matt and Joyce discuss on this week's episode.

Matt is back this week! But, wait...Sam is now missing for this episode for the Watch-Men podcast. Is this a Delos conspiracy? Are they actually the same person? Likely not, but these are the types of quandaries that this season of Westworld has us asking. How did Season 2 compare to Season 1? One thing's for sure, there were definitely more violent ends than there were delights. Listen to find out more!

Sam and Joyce are back with bigger and scarier dinosaurs in this week's review of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Given that the 2015 reboot of Jurassic Park was met with so much disappointment, we were slightly surprised that, despite reviews, the Watch-Men found it better than expected. Do we recommend this latest installment of the popular dinosaur franchise? Listen and find out!
