Welcome to this week’s Monday Night RAW review, right here on Nerdly. In Nathan’s absence I’ll be bringing you a review of this weeks episode, which comes complete with commentary from Renee Young… Just like last time I reviewed Raw, only this time Renne Young is now a REGULAR on commentary!

Stars: Logan Marshall-Green, Richard Anastasios, Melanie Vallejo, Richard Cawthorne, Harrison Gilbertson | Written and Directed by Leigh Whannell Writer/director, and regular James Wan collaborator, Leigh Whannell puts the reigns of horror on hold and surprisingly turns his attention to the action genre with the effective, intellectual and engaging Upgrade.

Stars: Virginie Ledoyen, Cyprien Fouquet, Jean-Pierre Darroussin, László Szabó, Smaïl Mekki | Written and Directed by Olivier Assayas This 1994 film from Olivier Assayas (known recently for Clouds of Sils Maria and Personal Shopper) ends ambiguously, with a blank piece of paper. It’s an image that aptly sums up this intriguing yet frustrating film as […]
I was three years old when Big Trouble in Little China was first released (1986, for those guessing) but more so than almost any other eighties action movie, its irreverent quips and gung-ho attitude cemented it as an enduring classic in my mind. Clearly, the team at Everything Epic feel the same way, since the […]

Written by Ollie Masters | Art by Budi Setiawan | Published by Titan Comics I enjoyed the last issue, without loving it. Considering the two films worth of material that this book can pull from, the first issue felt surprisingly lightweight. What it did best was to replicate the style and feel of the films. […]

Welcome to this edition of WWE Week In Review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a few things to cover, so let’s do so. Worst Promo: The Jinder Mahal/Bobby Lashley promo was bad, but not because either man was bad in it. The promo itself was constructed badly, but since Lashley […]

Welcome to this week’s Impact Wrestling review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have more great action than you can snap at. What the hell does that even mean? Is that what Thanos did in Avengers 3? How in the hell did some-thing as dumb as a snap become popular? Have you […]

Welcome to this week’s Lucha Underground review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a night… of death! Match #1: Matanza Cueto beat Joey Wrestling Matanza killed Joey in this match.

Almost everything about Manual Samuel is great, the visuals, audio, narration and setup are all of a high quality but sadly the main conceit of the game doesn’t hold up for the short duration it takes to complete. The game begins with the rich, vain Samuel arguing with his fiancé and getting hit and killed […]

SNK have a long storied history of fighting games. From the arcades to the Neo-Geo, by way of just about every home console you could possibly imagine, it feels very much like there have always been SNK fighting games; and because of that their characters are as iconic as those found in the Street Fighter […]

Written by Max Allan Collins | Art by Marcelo Salaza, Marcio Freire | Published by Titan Comics Before jumping into the review proper, a quick observation about recap pages or ‘what’s come before’ text in the front of books. As readers, we both like and need them. I reviewed the first issue of Mike Hammer […]
