May 11th, 2014 by Marc Comments

On this week’s show Marc and Saxon have two great guests as well as all the usual nerdy news.

First up we’ll be chatting to Warren Elsmore, the guy who is rebuilding the world with LEGO blocks in his new exhibition Brick City which kicks off next week in the titanic Quarter in Belfast. He’ll also be talking about his involvement in Brick2014 – the LEGO equivalent of Celebration.

Our next guest is Amanda Ladd, the daughter of the legendary movie producer Alan Ladd Jnr who greenlit more movie that we can count but it includes movies like Nightshift, Braveheart, Star wars and Bladerunner. She’s going to talking about the new documentary she’s making about her father called Laddie – you can check it out here.

We’ll also have Stuart from the Monday Movie Show on to and he’ll be going through the latest movie news and reviews.

In the news, we’ll be talking about the new Gotham TV series, the latest Star Wars news including a possible title and crossover with the animated series.

In Marvel news we’ll be discussing the identity of Spider-man in the movies, World War Hulk and who would win, Captain America or Superman and Batman? Looks like we will find out in a couple of years after all…

All this plus sooooooo much more with banter, music and fun.

Remember, you Nerd it here first….

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
