Nerd Lunch Episode 93: Pop Culture Eraser 2

Posted in Batman, movies, podcast, pop culture, TV shows with tags Batman, Karate Kid, movies, Nerd Lunch Podcast, podcasts, pop culture, TV shows on July 9, 2013 by Paxton

This week JEEG IS BACK and we are joined again by Brian from Cool and Collected. This week we do a topic that I missed the first time out, The Pop Culture Eraser.

We are each allowed to erase 1 person and 1 thing from existence. But we also have to envision how that would affect the pop culture landscape. Jeeg was pretty bold with his choices but some of the things that get erased are the 60s Batman series, Jay Leno and Christopher Nolan. The fun in this discussion is how this would affect pop culture in general after these things have been erased.

Nerd Lunch Episode 92: Reboot Challenge

Posted in Back to the Future, movies, podcast, pop culture, TV shows with tags Back to the Future, movies, Nerd Lunch Podcast, podcasts, TV shows on July 2, 2013 by Paxton

This week, Jeeg is out and we bring in Matt Ringler from Schlock Treatment podcast and Tim Lybarger from The Neighborhood Archive. This week we all talk about reboots and we are tasked with creating our own reboot of an existing property.

My choice for a modern reboot is Misfits of Science. Matt talks about the TGIF lineup that contained shows like Mr Belvedere, Perfect Strangers and Full House. Tim wants to reboot Gilligan’s Island and CT tries to tackle the impossible and reboots Back to the Future. Prepare for some pretty good ideas that get thrown around. Especially mine. ALL of mine are GOLD.

Jeeg gives us a few categories like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Alien Invasion and “Wild Card”. We then all have to come up with our own Ultimate Movie Trilogy for that category. It’s a lot of fun and I think you’ll be surprised by some of the movies that get selected.
