Imagine living in a small town, where nothing ever changes and outsiders are judged (wow, sounds like my hometown). Now imagine someone new moves to town, and that person changes your entire life. This ain’t your everyday paranormal romance, kids. This is Gatlin County, South Carolina. This is Beautiful Creatures.

Sorry, guys. I’ve been slammed by life the last week or so. Joss Whedon Month has suddenly turned into Joss Whedon Months. But back on track!
Okay, so now that we know the origin story of our beloved Buffy, we can dive into the series, where she became more…well, just more.

Okay, so in case you guys didn’t know, us kids here at the Nerdicon adore Neil Gaiman. A lot. A lot a lot. And the lovely folks at Radio 4 in the UK are doing a radio adaptation of Neil’s novel Neverwhere. I know I talked about the miniseries version of it on our last podcast, but HOLY CRAP, TALK ABOUT AN AMAZING AWESOME CAST. I’m talkin’ James McAvoy, Natalie Dorner, ANTHONY HEAD YOU GUYS, Benedict Cumberbatch, CHRISTOPHER FREAKIN’ LEE. Okay, that’s not even the entire cast, but that’s just a hint of the awesomeness that’s going to air.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. An undead boy falls tragically in love with a human girl, no one understands what they see in each other, blah blah blah. I’m not talking about a Twilight reboot (thank all that is holy and good). I’m talking about the best zombie flick I’ve seen in a long time: Warm Bodies.![]()

We talk about movies! YAY MOVIES! Listen here!
So for those of you who aren’t Whovians (shame on you), every Christmas there’s a Doctor Who Christmas special. Sometimes it’s a stand alone episode, while other times it’s a turning point in a series. This year’s special introduced Clara, the Doctor’s new companion. And, much like with everything else, we have mixed feelings about it.

Quentin Tarantino has been called many things. Most people thought he was insane for wanting to do another period piece after the brilliance that was Inglorious Basterds. Even I thought it was kinda crazy to do a film set in the Antebellum period. But I trusted him, and thank god I did. Continue reading
