Jay joins Marc in the studio this week as we talk Fringe - which is only apt as we interview the lovely actess Jasika Nicole who play Astrid Farnworth in the hit sci-fi show Fringe.
We talk about the Bourne Legacy, Bourne without Bourne... for now anyway. We also talk to short film Sam Macaroni - without a doubt the craziest interview we've ever carried out.
On top of that we have all the usual news and reviews... plug in your earphones and let us take you on a journey into... Nerd-topia.
This week your host Marc is joined by Saxon, or as he's known to some, Stephen.
On this week's show there's a lot of talk over Disney/Marvel's trouble with the Avengers cast, we review Star Trek Into Darkness and we talk about the big leaked news for this weekend's Doctor Who finale as well as casting news for the 50th anniversary movie...
All this and the rest of the latest news from the world of TV, movies, comics, toys and everything great...
We also chat to Stuart from the Monday Movie Show and Alan the Bald Gamer Dude about what's new in the world of Movies
It's that one day of the year when fans truly get to rejoice in their nerdiness...
Yes, it's the Following the Nerd and The Empire Talks Back Star Wars May the Fourth special, Hosted by Marc with Saxon and Chris, it's packed with news, banter and some of the coolest Star Wars guests on this planet or any other... oh, and it's an extra long episode too, so relax and enjoy as we chat to...
Stephen Stanton the voice of Tarkin, Marlo Eval and Col Meebor Gascon... he's Star Wars royalty and a good friend of the show and it's always a pleasure to talk with him...
Consetta Parker, the lady that looks after a small thing you may have heard of called Rancho Obi-Wan as well as being the agent of Mr James Arnold Taylor...
Randy Martinez a man who has had the honour of drawing Star Wars for the last 15 years as well as working for Topps and DC, an all-round cool guy...
And last, but certainly not least, we chat to Jeffrey Brown, the writer and artist of the far too cute Vader and Son, the upcoming Vader's Little Princess and the in-universe Jedi Academy.
We talk about Star Wars, Clones Wars and why it's so important to us all... and you
As well as that we get into the usual selection of news and reviews and chat to the Bald Gamer Dude, Alan and the Monday Movie Show's Stuart... excited? You will be....
On this week’s show your host, Marc, is joined by the man we call Saxon, Mr Stephen McCulla and
we get into the nitty gritty of the world of Nerd.
First up we talk about Iron Man 3 – don’t worry, we keep it spoiler free – and just what we thought
of it.
From there we talk about the latest toys from Marvel Select and just why Character Options has lost
the plot when it comes to Doctor Who toys.
Next we rejoice in the fact that we were mentioned in an online article in the Wall Street Journal
before talking about last week’s episode of Doctor Who called Hide… spooky.
With the release of the third Man of Steel trailer we rejoice in the music of Hans Zimmer and talk
about why we think it’s a good thing that John Williams is left behind for Zack Snyder’s new take on
the Superman mythology.
Loki’s ultimate fate is discussed as we speculate, given what we see in the Thor: The Dark World
trailer and know of the comic history, ON what we think will ultimately be his fate in the Marvel
movie-verse.
Stuart is back from The Monday Movie Show with the UK Box Office Top Ten and we talk in length
about Oblivion and Joseph Kosinski’s previous sci-fi epic TRON: Legacy and Marc ponders on why he
thinks Kosinski should be a shoe-in for one of the upcoming Star Wars sequels.
Is Ghostbusters III still coming? We ponder the chances of it happening and wonder who would be a
great choice of cast if the movie was – shudder – remade. What do you think of our choices?
Finally, two of the biggest questions in sci-fi get addressed… why are Australian Trekkies up-in-arms
about JJ Abrams’ Star Trek Into Darkness and will we really find out the name of the Doctor in two
weeks? Or is Steven Moffat up to his old tricks?
