Episode 434: To Boldly Go...back to Hyrule
September 9th, 2026 | 5 mins 31 secs
70mm, Bethesda, Comedy Central, Dungeons & Dragons, Fallout, GTA, Konami, Lucasfilm, Metroid, Netflix, Nintendo Direct, Playstation, Sony, South Park, Star Trek, Star Wars, TV, Tetris, The Legend of Zelda, Warhammer 40k, Xbox, bruce campbell, bungie, donny darko, dragon ball z, dualsense controller, ea sports, forza horizon 6, game of thrones, gaming, geek, godzilla minus zero, gta vi, harry potter, hbo max, hideo kojima, inde navarette, kamiya, kirby, kojima productions, left 4 dead, mayday, movies, naughty dog, nerd, nhl 27, nicolas cage, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, paramount plus, pinball, playground games, playstation 5, prime video, ps5, riot games, rockstar games, space marine 3, spider-noir, star trek 60, star wars starfighter, switch 2, the last of us, the legend of zelda ocarina of time, the mad king, the matrix, the odyssey, the wachowskis, toei, toho, valve, video games, waffle house, warhammer, warhammer 40k: space marine 3, xbox cloud gaming, xbox game pass
Star Trek has been boldly going for 60 years, but Paramount seems to make us want to forget that. Link has been rescuing Zelda for 40 years, and this year he will be doing it all over again, as we discuss the Nintendo Direct. Don't signal for rescue, because Mayday was a lot better than expected, and Star Wars is heading to a 70mm not near you. And we finally know what Godzilla Minus Zero is really about.

Xbox can't help itself; it finds rakes out of nowhere to step on, and its all self-inflicted. There won't be any trips in the Tardis anytime soon, and who is to blame? George Miller wants to sell Mad Max, but why? And Fox buys Roku, which feels oddly familiar.

The Oscars were this weekend, and surprise surprise, PTA won big, while Chalamet went home with nothing. We also got two big trailers this week, Dune Pt. 3 and Spider-Man: Brand New Day! Pokémon Go was used to farm us for AR images and map data, and Nvidia says we're wrong about DLSS5. Plus we have the Scooby gang all casted for Netflix's upcoming adaptation.

Paramount needs to give up on Warner Bros, they ain't letting you buy them. CES 2026 is in full swing and with it both vaporware and the future of tech. Ubisoft pulls a bad move and closes a studio that just unionized. Stranger Things ended on a high note, despite what the internet thinks. Plus everything Nick's is looking forward to in 2026.

One Battle After Another, is what I should rename this podcast, because the movie was that good, and a full review is inside. Plus Xbox takes another self imposed L, Sony gives itself a gold medal, and EA goes private. The Simpsons are headed back to the big screen, and an AI "actress" has Hollywood in a fervor. Plus Forza Horizon is finally headed to the land of the Rising Sun, and Ubisoft gives Assassin's Creed a new home.

Two wildly different movie reviews this week with Caught Stealing, and The Thursday Murder Club and boy are they wildly different movies as well. Plus James Gunn announces a Superman sequel, Amazon gives us our new Laura Croft, and Call of Duty is headed to the big screen. Also, Prefect Dark wasn't as dead as we thought, well, it is now, Konami made an interesting choice for Metal Gears return. That and more.

Look UP! Its a review of Superman! Plus, more fallout from the Xbox layoffs, what's in store for Final Fantasy's future, Resident Evil gets a multiverse, and the internet can finally calm down about the Legend of Zelda movie. Also Scrubs is back with its main cast, the Emmy nominations were announced, and why no love for Cassian? That and a whole lot more.

Xbox is always finding rakes to step on, which is ridiculous. After the success for NCAA College football, EA is brining NCAA College Basketball, and no one is shocked. Vin Diesel announces the plan for Fast X part 2, and there's major concerns. Matt Reeves finally finishes the Script for The Batman sequel, and James Gunn gives us who is playing Jor El. Plus a full review for F1 The Movie, which is hands down the best movie of the year so far. That and more on tonight's episode.
