[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RxZcxkFZZP0] Looks like we’ve got another Star Trek Into Darkness trailer. And this time it’s far less doom and gloom than it has been the norm pretty much from the moment we started getting info about the sequel. That makes me happy.

Rediscover the Beginning With Batman: Year One on Netflix
I’ve been sick (and consequently very bored) the past week or so and all I have had to keep me company is my cats and Netflix. Since it would be absolutely pathetic to write about my cats I figured I would write up something about one of the movies I’ve […]

This Valentine’s Day Watch Shakespeare, Instead of Sparks
So Valentine’s Day is coming. For us single people, it’s the worst day of the year and we just want to pretend it doesn’t exist. For the couples, it means an extra special date night. Or maybe just a movie. Now I have recently come to the conclusion that Nicholas […]
Love Never Dies… But What If It’s Technically Dead to Start With?
I think it’s pretty obvious now that we here at Nerdophiles are pretty big fans of Warm Bodies. Therese and I have been lucky enough to get the opportunity to see it not once but twice since December – well before it’s release in theaters this Friday. Waiting to tell […]
Holy Crap, It’s Official. JJ Abrams Will Direct Star Wars VII!
Yesterday news broke that JJ Abrams – best known for, well, everything he’s ever done ever (except maybe Felicity) – would be directing the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII film for Disney. Abrams has been the fan favorite for the role since the news broke that Disney was acquiring the […]

Mamá era una buena película de terror
No, this review is not in Spanish. But it does have a number of spoilers so you may want to beware. A few days ago I had the opportunity to check out the new Guillermo del Toro flick, Mama, a day or two before release thanks to a screening hosted […]
