Whenever there is a film that demands the discussion of the Fake Nerds, be it an older one worth re-visitation or brand new, it ends up here in the Fake Nerd Cine-Files!This is our review of the second attempt at adapting the Haunted Mansion ride that hit theatres in 2023! Haunted Mansion is written by Katie Dippold and directed by Justin Simien. Ben, Sparkz, and Brandon come together to discuss the spooky time of Disney's Haunted Mansion for 2023. The latest attempt to capture the ride on film fares far better with them than the previous, though that was not a high bar to clear. There's quite a few things that hold it back from being great, but they have to admit where a good spooky time can be had. Especially if your mileage with easter eggs for the ride is high.

Whenever there is a film that demands the discussion of the Fake Nerds, be it an older one worth re-visitation or brand new, it ends up here in the Fake Nerd Cine-Files!This is our review of the latest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Marvels is written by Nia DaCosta, Megan McDonnell and Elissa Karasik; directed by Nia DaCosta. Brandon, Sparkz, and Ben come together to talk about the newest MCU film that serves as a follow-up to Captain Marvel, WandaVision, and Ms Marvel. There's no doubt to them that the trio of leads are exceptional together and DaCosta knows how to bring out some incredible fun with them. The movie has hiccups and flaws, while a brisk film there are some things in the edit that feel absent. Yet, the good time at the movies vibe sails all of them into having a really great discussion about this movie. Plus, a little bit of discussion over the future of the MCU related to this film and recent events.
