Hello All! Another week, another rant, but not as heated. As you can tell by the title its about Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League, and boy am I not happy. We also had a state of play from Sony, Microsoft gutted Blizzard, and Mass Effect is headed to Destiny. Meanwhile The Thunderbolts loses several stars, Supergirl is found, Denis Villeneuve has plans for Dune 3. Also, there was an issue with my microphone this week, so that will explain the poor audio quality.

Also, Jon Stewart returns to the daily show, and honestly that's what America needs right now, please let him be unhinged Comedy Central, please. Plus Palworld has quite literally taken over the gaming world, who knew "Pokémon with guns" would be this successful.

Will Tina Fey take over Saturday Night Live? I think Lorne Michaels hopes she does. Plus the Halo Battle Royale was almost real, despite 343 always saying they wouldn't make one. Plus the Emmys happened, and The Bear, Beef, and Succession all walked away as winners. That and more on this weeks Nick's Nerd News.

Episode 293: ParamountBros:ShowMAX
December 20th, 2023 | 1 hr 14 mins
3d realms, a knightmare before christmas, a24, activisionblizzard, amazon studios, andor, avatar the last airbender, axel foley, baldur's gate 3, barbie, bethesda, beverly hills cop iv, bobby kotick, christmas, christmas movies, curb your enthusiasm, dark knight trilogy, dcu, death stranding, die hard, disney, disney+, dota 2, echo, eddie murphy, embracer group, fallout76, festivus, final fantasy vii, five nights at freddy's, fortnite, fx, games workshop, gaming, gary oldman, geek, godzilla minus one, good omens, harry potter, hbo, henry cavil, hideo kojima, home alone, how the grinch stole christmas, insomniac games, jack black, james gunn, james mccaffrey, jet set radio, jingle all the way, john krasinski, jonathan majors, kang the conqueror, kojima productions, larian, larry david, lord of the rings, luigi, marvels spider-man 2, marvels wolverine, matt reeves, matthew lillard, max, max payne, mcu, microsoft, movies, national lampoons christmas vacation, naughty dog, nerd, netflix, office christmas party, one piece, paramount pictures, peaky blinders, percy jackson, playstation 5, playstation studios, pokémon, ps5, rankin/bass, ratchet and clank, rings of power, ryan reynolds, scrooged, sega, sony, star wars, steamboat willie, the addams family, the batman, the crew, the game awards, the last of us, the lost boys, the santa clause, the x-files, the year without a santa clause, toho, tolkein estate, tv, ubisoft, uncle fester, valve, video games, warhammer 40k, warnerbros discovery, wednesday, what we do in the shadows, wonka, xbox, xbox series x|s, zack snyder
Are two of Hollywood's oldest studios about to merge? It might be a more plausible outcome then you think as Warner and Paramount have talks. A24 and Kojima make a match made in heaven, Insomniac is hacked, and we learn their future. PS5 continues Sony's dominance in the gaming space, and Bobby Kotick is finally leaving Activision. Several streaming shows are getting renewed for their final seasons, and Curb is ending. Pretty, Pretty, Pretty, not good. The MCU's second greatest villain may not actual be a thing anymore, and I watched Barbie. Plus my top 10 Christmas movies.

We have a review of Godzilla Minus One, which im gonna say now, my favorite movie of 2023, hands down. We also got the game awards last week, over 20 new games announced, most of which had no release dates, Baldur's Gate 3 was the big winner, no surprises. We also saw the announcement of several movies, and the release of several trailers for big upcoming sequels. Barbie and Succession dominate the Golden Globe Nominees, and we lost a great star of Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

We should all have courage like David Zaslav (；￣Д￣）. Lord Gaben has been required to return to the US for court, more layoffs hit the game development world, and CD Projekt Red is really gearing up for the Witcher 4. Meanwhile The Hunger Games prequel is just wrapping up the box office, Taika wants to make sure his Star Wars will be good, and Chris Evans is totally unware of the return of Cap. Also I give my top 10 90s Drama films.

Happy Thanksgiving eve! So it looks like we are getting a Wonder Woman game with the nemesis system which makes me instantly excited. Mario Kart falls out of the top selling for the first time in years, Cyberpunk's re release is going to be 3 disks!!!!, and I guess the KoToR remake isnt dead? Also Disney is banking on sequels, again.... Scream 7 loses its stars, and Good Burger 2! Plus a 90s rom com list!

And just like that, Thrawn is alive, and in person in Ahsoka. Would I have believed you if you told me five years ago Thrawn would appear in person, probably not, yet here we are. Also Microsoft really needs to find staff members that can upload a redacted document, that stays redacted. Because those leaks are no joke, especially when "private" emails are made public. Also It seems like the Writers may have scored a major victory against the studios. That and a hell of a lot more, come take a listen.
