Day one of Comic Con International has come to a close, though I hear the activities in the Gaslamp district are just getting started. Our reporters did some great work today and sat in on a ton of panels. What they couldn’t do, the rest of Twitter did, and here […]
So You're not at San Diego Comic Con
So you’re not in San Diego participating in the biggest nerd party in the world. I feel you. I’m not, either, for a variety of reasons but I’m still making the best of it. Since I’m stuck sitting in my home in Oregon, I’ve decided to put together an abbreviated […]
TNT's the Last Ship Will Return for a 13 Episode Second Season!
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L_xXKA2nC8] Over here at Nerdophiles we’re pretty huge fans of TNT’s latest action series, The Last Ship. If we had to pick our top new series of the summer then this one would be it. It’s fun and full of action (and a little cheesey, we’ll admit). It’s got a […]
Lucina & company confirmed for the new Smash Bros.
A new trailer for Super Smash Bros. dropped yesterday, and it made me scream like the Fire Emblem fan girl I am. I’ve been crossing my fingers for a female sword fighter in the new smash since day one, but I never really imagined that I would also be seeing this: […]

DC’s New Female Driven Titles May Get Them Back on my Pull List
I’ve said it before, but I sort of unceremoniously dropped DC around the time of the New 52. I wonder if I did the right thing, but then Marc Andreyko called the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell aspect of Kate Kane’s backstory dated and I felt the rage go again. However, […]
Emmy Nominations 2014: The Good, the Bad, and the Meh
The Emmy Nomination list for 2014 is out and I’m ecstatic and disappointed all at once. THE GOOD: Laverne Cox got a nomination for outstanding guest actress in a comedy series and that is historic. She is the first transgender person to be nominated for an Emmy and she deserves […]
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Unity
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4e-qJdEAXo&w=640&h=360] Do you hear that sound? That’s the distant screams of Hunger Games fans exploding with excitement. Screams of “JOHANNA! NO!”, “THE MOCKINGJAY LIVES!”, and just plain screaming. The evil masterminds over at Lionsgate have just released the newest ‘Propo’ video straight from the Capitol called ‘Unity’, and my […]
STARZ Developing American Gods Series
After toiling away with HBO for some time and failing to materialize, it appears that STARZ has opted to develop Neil Gaiman’s American Gods into a series for the premium channel. If that’s not exciting enough, Bryan Fuller (“Hannibal,” “Pushing Daisies,” “Heroes”) has been tapped to pen the pilot script alongside Michael Green […]
