Nerds Against Normality

Schemes, Seduction, and the ’90s: Cruel Intentions Movie Review Ep41

This week on Nerds Against Normality, we tackle the movie that taught a generation that step-siblings, scandal, and classical music remixes are a recipe for chaos: Cruel Intentions. Join us as we dive into the most iconic (and slightly unhinged) teen drama of the '90s—where everyone’s filthy rich, morally bankrupt, and somehow still quoting French literature. We’ll break down the fashion, the manipulation, and yes, that kiss, all with our trademark nerdy sass. Warning: contains spoilers and strong opinions on pastel cardigans.

Super Mario Bros: Peachy or Preachy? (2023 Movie Review) Ep40

Grab your overalls and power up, because Nerds Against Normality just dropped a fresh episode, and this time we’re diving headfirst down the warp pipe into the Mushroom Kingdom!
 
Yes, we’re reviewing the Super Mario Bros. Movie — the good, the weird, the nostalgic, and the “wait, did Bowser just sing?” moments. Whether you’re a lifelong Nintendo fan or just here for the Chris Pratt controversy, we’ve got thoughts. Lots of them. Some spicy, some surprisingly wholesome, and all delivered with the kind of nerdy flair only Nerds Against Normality can provide.
 
We break down everything from the plot (or whatever you call it when a plumber saves a princess from a fire-breathing turtle) to Easter eggs even Yoshi might’ve missed. Is it a cinematic masterpiece or a coin-collecting cash grab? Tune in to find out.
 
Joining us for the review this week we have a special guest appearance from our good friend Dan Moore (insert cheering here)! So before we head into the review we chat all things nerdy including top films, games and tv series. 
 
Review starts at 30:50

Super Mario Bros Movie Review (1993) Ep39

In this episode of Nerds Against Normality, we take a deep dive into the infamous 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie—the first-ever live-action adaptation of a video game.
Often remembered for its dark tone, dystopian visuals, and drastic departure from the source material, this film has earned a unique place in pop culture history. We explore its troubled production, ambitious world-building, and why it continues to spark debate among fans and critics alike. Is it a misunderstood cult classic or a cautionary tale of Hollywood excess? Tune in and find out.
Before we get into the review we have a little catch up with what we have been doing with ourselves since the last recording! If you want to get straight into the review then jump ahead to 28:10! 
New episodes drop every Wednesday, bringing you fresh content, hot takes, and unapologetic nerdiness.

Wild Wild Mess: Revisiting the Steampunk Trainwreck Ep38

Giddy up, podcast listeners! This week, the Nerds Against Normality are hitchin' their wagons to the unhinged mess that was the Wild Wild West. We're talking whiskey-fueled shootouts, hygiene levels that would terrify a raccoon, and outlaws with more flair than actual skills. It’s sex, saloons, and historically questionable nonsense — all filtered through our nerdy lens. History class never covered the part where cowboys were basically feral dudes in leather chaps, but don’t worry — we’ve got you covered.
If you laughed, learned, or just accidentally left us playing — hit that like, smash subscribe, and ride with us every Wednesday for more weird, wild, and wonderfully nerdy chaos. Until then, stay strange, nerds!

Gone In 60 Seconds Film Review Ep37

Get ready for a high-octane ride through the world of car heists and adrenaline-pumping chases in Gone in 60 Seconds! In this action-packed film, Nicolas Cage plays Memphis Raines, a retired car thief who’s pulled back into the game for one last heist. The twist? He must steal 50 cars in a single night to save his brother's life. Oh, and did we mention one of the cars is a ridiculously sexy custom Shelby GT500 Mustang, nicknamed "Eleanor"? Yeah, things are about to get very interesting.
 
With a star-studded cast that includes Angelina Jolie, Giovanni Ribisi, and Robert Duvall, the movie blends fast cars, high stakes, and a ragtag team of quirky criminals in a way that’s pure cinematic fun. Whether it’s the jaw-dropping car chases, the impossible stunts, or the heart-pounding moments when everything seems to be on the verge of blowing up, Gone in 60 Seconds is like a love letter to both car culture and the heist genre.
 
It's not just about stealing cars—it’s about stealing your heart too, with over-the-top action and a plot that’s as fast-paced as the muscle cars themselves. Buckle up, because this movie is a full-throttle joyride that leaves you grinning from start to finish.

Toy Story Review 1996 Ep36

The film that put Pixar on the map is up next for review! Spawning 3 sequels and a spin-off film, this juggernaut movie franchise has been on our TVs for almost 30 years!

To help us this week, we  have a special guest appearance from award winning voice over artist Martin Whiskin to aid us in our review. We hope you enjoy his insights as much as we did as he guides us through the process of voice over work and how the magic comes to life!
