On this week’s show Marc is joined by Boys From County Hell star Michael Lavery and his lovely wife and fellow actor Mary-Ellen and later the king Nerd himself, big Phil joins the chaos.
We gear up for the Boys From County Hell world premiere and Q-Con, both of which happened in Belfast.
The trailers that get our attention this week are Taken 2, Monsters University and Judge Dredd… we talk about FTN favourite Nathan Fillion and ponder how he still isn’t the world’s biggest actor.
Writer Owen Quinn calls in to pay homage to Doctor Who actress Liz Shaw and just how important she was to the direction Who eventually took.
We get talking Blair Witch, Hulk, Jurassic Park 4 and Jeff Daniels!
Batman talk pops up – as it often does these days – Stan Lee as Spider-man, the end of Life In Hell, the newspaper strip that got Matt Groening noticed as well as Futurama talk and fun clips.
We also look at Django Unchained and how it may be the return to form of Quentin Tarantino and those Venom movie rumours just won’t die.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg… tune in and chill out with the FTN team.

Marc
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….
