The Christmas Chronicles
Ho! Ho! Ho boy! Do we have a Christmas movie for you. Since the next few weeks are all packed with big releases, this week Nando and DJ are going to nitpick a Christmas movie that sure is technically a movie, Netflix's The Christmas Chronicles. They try to figure out what Santa is really after, how "Christmas Spirit" works, and why the elves are all psychopaths obsessed with chainsawing people. Yeah, that's a thing in this kid's movie.

Robin Hood
This isn't your father's Robin Hood. We're really not sure who it's for. This week Nando and DJ forget everything they thought they knew about the public domain hero (which it turns out is VERY little) and watched Robin Hood. They nitpick the costumes, archery, and of course, the fire. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Ralph Breaks the Internet
...or he wrecks it. Who knows? This week, Nando and DJ dust off some old Chappelle Show sketches and read up on five year old memes to nitpick Wreck it Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks the Internet. They try to figure out how any of these video games work, what certain characters were actually doing during the movie, and Nando learns that Oh My Disney is a real thing.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
The beasts are pretty much gone. Grindlewald doesn't do that many crimes. It's an absolute mess. This week, Nando and DJ do their best to make sense of the movie that should absolutely put the Wizarding World on ice for a few years, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindlewald. They talk about the exposition, the exposition, and of course the exposition. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
A new adventure begins. This week, Nando and DJ haphazardly dive into the first in a new series of Wizarding World movies, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. They talk about the mildly interesting beasts, confusing new spells, and of course MCUSA torture chambers. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
It. Finally. All. Ends. (Until the prequels and eventual reboot) This week, Nando and DJ take a ride down the CGI roller coaster mine and watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. They nitpick the swords, plans, magic, and finally...wand ownership. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Freddy vs Jason
One, two, Freddy's coming for you... three, four, this movie is poor... This Halloween, Nando and DJ watch a Halloween horror movie that almost certainly does not take place on Halloween, Freddy vs Jason. They nitpick Freddy's powers, teenager's plans, and the fundamental problem with this movie. Next week, it all ends with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
It all...begins to end. This week, Nando and DJ enter the endgame and watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. They talk about the pathetic plot-devices, incompetent adults, and what a hallows...is. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
At this point, we just kinda go with it too, Harry. This week, Nando and DJ examine the sixth movie in the Harry Potter franchise, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. That talk about the flat reveals, problematic potions, and what Nando believes is the biggest game breaker in the entire Wizarding World. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel

Venom
Symbiotes! Reporters! Rocket ships! So much to nitpick, so little time! This week, Nando and DJ embrace their inner anti-hero and discuss the first film in Sony's new Spider-Manless Spider-Man cinematic Universe, Venom. They talk about the writing, wigs, and big grey villains of this messy but shockingly entertaining movie. Message us on Twitter Nando's Youtube Channel
