This week on Nerds Against Normality, we’re rewinding back to 1984 to dissect the film that launched a thousand time travel headaches — The Terminator. From cyborg assassins and ‘80s tech paranoia to James Cameron’s rise and Arnie’s iconic one-liners, we break down how this low-budget sci-fi thriller became a genre-defining classic.
Expect bold takes, thematic deep dives, and possibly a heated argument over whether Skynet could’ve been stopped with just a floppy disk and a strong WiFi password.

This week on Nerds Against Normality, we dive claws-first into the Y2K fever dream that tried to satirize capitalism by... selling you literally everything in sight. Was it a bold critique of consumerism, or just one long advert with a catchy soundtrack? We tried to figure it out, but we got distracted by the 47 corporate logos in every scene.
Join us as we discuss what went wrong, what almost worked, and why this movie feels like Clueless and Fight Club had a glittery, confused baby.
If you love cult classics, comic book chaos, and a good ol’ fashioned cinematic roast — this one’s for you. Josie might be a pussycat, but we’re not pulling any claws.
Before we delve into the film review we have a short catchup with what nerdy stuff we've been up to. If you just want to get stuck into the review then skip ahead to 11:40!

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.

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

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.

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!

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.

We have managed to mess up so much in 3 months that we have managed to get a funny episode out of it!
Excuse some of the low hanging fruit here, we're all mentally 12 so it's not our fault I promise.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this episode and have some fun listening to us trip over ourselves

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! Has the original still got the magic that drew in audiences back in the 90's? We dig in to find out if its still as comforting as it was when we were young.
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!
For more lighthearted movie and game reviews find us on spotify or apple podcasts where we release new episodes every Wednesday.

It's a special occasion this week as we celebrate Stacey's birthday! And what better way to celebrate than to review her all time favourite film?
We travel back to the year 1985 where we see Marty McFly fight to save his families existence, with a touch of time travel and a dabble of incest, can Marty save his family from being extinct (there's 2 sequels so I'll let you take a guess).
Before the review we have some listener questions for our birthday girl, she absolutely hated being on the spot and honestly it's all the better for it.
Review starts at 29:55

This week, we celebrate the 97th Oscars in style! We have a forfeit challenge guessing the winners of each category, it's Stacey Vs Ben in clash of the film buff titans where the loser could legitimately lose their job if things go badly.
After those shenanigans we move on to Oscar winner "The Brutalist" to see what the hype is all about. Given its cast its safe to say it has a solid foundation (get it) for success but let's wait and see if it gets N.a.N approval

This is one of our earliest recordings which has just gathered dust for the last few months so we thought we should get it out there!
Ben and Harry team up against a gaming quiz where if they lose they have to do a forfeit of Stacey's choice!
It's a bit hectic at times as the recording went to pot but hopefully there's still some enjoyment to be had.
Let us know if you beat us in the quiz by sending us a message on our Facebook page
