WWE’s The Bump hits its fourth episode this week, and I, for one, am happy about that. So far the plug hasn’t been pulled on this unique and breath-of-fresh-air concept show from WWE. This week, like each week so far, we witness the “Bump Crew” talk about the week in WWE while also welcoming a […]

Goyer, Justin Rhodes, Billy Ray | Directed by Tim Miller Although the best in the franchise since Terminator 2: Judgment Day, this is clearly a dying franchise […]
Welcome to this week’s Major League Wrestling: Fusion, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have more from pro wrestling’s resident whack-a-mole league. In my head, that’s a compliment. Mike Tyson has the world’s most intimidating lisp. Snakes can’t tap dance. When I was a baby, I weighed 249 pounds. My mom pushed […]
Welcome to this week’s 205 Live review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have Kevin Hart going to “Night School” to learnify his brain-head with edumacation. Got to git dat knerlegde. I’mma git dat ass! My wife farts when she laughs…stinks. Okay, let’s see if 205 Live stinks or kicks the first […]
Welcome to this week’s SmackDown review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have Genesis singling about a lamb laying on Broadway. What the hell are those dumb-asses talking about? Cook that fuzzy sucker…roast it in garlic butter drizzled all over ‘till it’s juicy…damn it. We’ve got build for what folks keep calling […]
I certainly don’t envy the team tasked with converting one of the most epic grand strategy videogames of all time into a reasonably mass-market board game adaptation, but the designers of Crusader Kings have certainly given it their best shot. Buoyed by funding from a well received Kickstarter, this adaptation of the Paradox Interactive classic […]

Written by Various | Art by Various | Published by Marvel Comics I kind of felt honour bound to review this, with Halloween in our not too distant future. Can you think of many better characters than Ghost Rider at this time of year. I also have a more personal connection in that, every Halloween […]

Smith It’s October so it’s must be Halloween attraction-going time right? Well if the movies are anything to go by that’s definitely the […]
Written by R.T. Ewell | Format: Paperback, 114pp I’m a big reader. I love a good book, and when it comes to genres I’m fairly open, but sci-fi, fantasy and horror tends to be a go-to when I’m not sure what I want to pick up. I read Fat Trapped back when it was initially […]
Welcome to this week’s NXT UK review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and I look like a buffalo with its legs chopped off. This episode has a match or two, so let’s call Kevin Nash to make fun of the whole thing. Hey…their knees aren’t shot. $!@# them! Okay, let’s get to this […]
Written by Geoff Johns | Art by Gary Frank | Published by DC Comics | Format: Hardback, 224pp I bought and read the original Watchmen series when it came out in 1986, and it is hard to convey now just how groundbreaking that was. I bought the 12 individual issues as they were published, and […]
Stars: Ruby Rose, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang, Camrus Johnson, Elizabeth Anweis, Dougray Scott | Created by Caroline Dries Batwoman is a series that will either thrive or die based on the relationship between Alice and Kate. If the writers can continue to add layers to their relationship without moving into the over-dramatic field, […]

Welcome to this week’s All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and AEW finally has recaps of their shows on their website, so we’re using the sucker. Holy moly, Roly Poly! Okay, let’s go crazy! Match #1: The Lucha Bros defeated Private Party – All Elite Wrestling Tag Team Tournament […]
The fourth in Frozenbyte’s now decade-old Trine series shows that refining something can be just as enduring as re-inventing it. Some minor issues aside, Trine 4 is a triumph in the platform-puzzle genre and, should it be the last in the series, a hell of a way to go out. Moving away from Trine 3’s […]
Welcome to this week’s NXT review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and Elton John used to kick that Tiny Dancer from his song. What a prick. This show has a lot of great wrestling on it, so let’s not waste any time on folding our napkins, because Vanilla Sky is the greatest movie […]

Shotzi Blackheart The following […]
We continue down our Road to Reboot, and we reach one of the last hurdles, with Kevin Smith’s ultra-meta 2001 flick, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back. Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back is one of those moments in time when the planets aligned and true cinematic brilliance was able to me made. I kid… this […]
You’d be forgiven for not being able to place the silhouette of the imposing and much larger than expected VT-49 Decimator, especially if your knowledge of Star Wars is limited only to the core movies. This ship has never appeared in the movies as far as I know, but it looks every bit like an […]
