You still watching Gotham on Fox? Believe it or not the show is coming up on its fifth and final season. Even though I fell out of touch with the show years ago, the internet has provided all of the updates and clips one could ask for. I’m actually surprised that I know as much about the show as I do. For those of you who haven’t watched Gotham since season three, Fox has given us a reason to tune back in. Why? Because the show is finally giving us The Joker! I mean, an actual Joker. White face, green…

Add another name to the ever growing list of celebrities accused of sexual misconduct. Seems like a common theme these days. Sometimes a person gets accused and instantly you believe every word the media has to say. Then sometimes the news can feel the same way as taking a baseball bat to your gut until you’ve come to terms with the fact that a figure you respect the hell out of is a total creep-ass. Now, it’s Ryan Adams. The dude has been making quality music for almost twenty years but most of you probably know him as that guy…

People always go right to The Rolling Stones when they think about classic rock stars still on the road after all these years. Every time Jagger and company announce a show, you feel excited, yet surprised. Like “wow, they’re actually going on tour again… so when do tickets go on sale?” For some of these acts, it’s been a farewell tour for twenty years. And speaking of prolonged farewell tours from a artists who’ve been around forever, Ozzy Osbourne, who is currently on his “No More Tours 2” had to postpone the UK leg of upcoming shows due to illness.…

“Beetle House! Beetle House! Beetle House!” I know it’s a corny way to begin an article but after half a Big Fish Bowl (a strong adult beverage served in an actual fish bowl, with dry ice to create a smoky effect) it was a phrase I kept saying as if I was the first person to ever say such a clever play on words. By the way, I hope I’m not the first person to make that association. The name of the bar slash restaurant slash homage to the works of Tim Burton is Beetle House and it has the…

Recently I started contributing “onion-esque” to Nerdbot, kind of something I’ve always wanted to do. Just simple, little hopefully humorous anecdotes poking fun at different cultural aspects of our lives, and also content relevant to our site. I usually save it for the end but today I’ll flat out tell you in the beginning, this is not a satirical piece. Even though I’d really really like it to be. It’s not. They’ve actually been around for over twenty plus years but for some reason the influential alternative rock band Dinosaur Jr. is currently topping the charts in Japan. NME.com and…

I still keep forgetting Shazam! comes out in like two months. Still. I’ve been writing about this movie for close to a year and honestly now that we’re basically on the precipice of its release and I’m more focused on the Joker solo film which comes out in October. My personal opinion is Shazam! will be a way bigger hit. Not because of quality, but because of accessibility. So as we approach April 5th, there’s going to be an over abundance of information being force fed into our social media feeds on an hourly basis. And yes, some of this…

No joke, this Disney-slash-Fox merger is going to be epic. It’s been a long time (if ever) since a film industry acquisition was made on this level. Don’t get me wrong, several projects will be effected by the two production juggernauts joining forces. We still have no clue what’s going on with that New Mutants movie and I’m sure there are a couple others struggling to find the way to market. What’s important to note here is somewhere buried in what I’m sure totals ten thousand pages of the merger agreement, lie the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Obviously…

So you’ve heard about this movie Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil And Vile right? If you haven’t, what I’m about to tell you is true. Zac Efron, yes that Zac Efron, plays deceased serial killer Ted Bundy in a movie. As if I wasn’t already sold at Zac Efron, 17 Again is an incredibly underrated reimagining of Freaky Friday. Well it appears that the former teen heartthrob has his eyes on a legitimate acting career and going the dark, edgy route if executed properly could shoot this dude to a world of mega-stardom. In fact, why don’t we take a look at…

The theme in Hollywood for the next few years should be “if it has a pre-existing fan base, it will be made into a movie.” Not too long ago it seemed like books and television were the only entertainment mediums being converted for the big screen. With the exception of Masters Of The Universe, making a product, or a toy (for this example) into a feature presentation was something I never thought would become a thing. Fast forward thirty years and add LEGO movie franchise, now the toy flick is hot AF. We’ve had LEGO’s, and in the coming years…

Yes everyone. Nerdbot was on the Red Carpet for, say it aloud with me now; “Excelsior! A Celebration Of The Amazing, Fantastic, Incredible & Uncanny Life Of Stan Lee.” A pretty clever title for the event if I do say so myself. On Wednesday, January 30th, hundreds of beloved fans, family, press core members, and don’t forget the celebrities, descended upon the TCL Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard to remember the legend known as Stan Lee. Nerdbot was live and on the Red Carpet, working hard to bring you interviews with some of the night’s biggest names. Check out our…
