The 2018 animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was full of surprises. One of the many of them is Spider-Man Noir. Voiced by Nicolas Cage, his black-and-white grizzled detective stole the show. In fact, it helped greenlight his own show. Earlier this year, Amazon premiered Spider-Noir to strong critical reviews. That was substantiated with several [...]

Throughout the 1980s and into the ’90s, cartoons and toy lines started going hand-in-hand. You know some of them quite well. Transformers, G.I. Joe, and Masters of the Universe come to mind.

Just who is Sacha Baron Cohen? Believe it or not, the man has been releasing satirical comedy since 1998. Ali G, Borat Sagdiyev, Bruno—all extremely offensive characters based on racial and cultural stereotypes.

Netflix’s adaptation of One Piece is a giant anomaly, a glitch in the matrix. Going into its third season, it has proven itself a stellar exception to the rule that any venture from animation to live action is doomed to fail.

Amazon Finds Their New RoboCop – Dan Stevens

Heath Andrews — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 12:07:37 +0000

Boy oh boy, do we love ourselves some RoboCop here at Nerdbot. That 1987 film is still an absolute, stone-cold classic. Its critical and commercial success has never been truly replicated. The direct sequels were mostly pale imitations. The lack of the original director, Paul Verhoeven, is a big part of that. But they also [...]
