Nutty Bites 189: Tropes that need to die!

Posted on March 28, 2021 by Nuchtchas

Tropes that need to die!

Some tropes need to die and be replaced with better writing. Nutty, Tek, Jason, and Vox get together to discuss these tired tropes and showcase examples of where this was done better and had a better story. Spoiler alert, Shazam and Aliens are have been on top of the ball this whole time! (Not to say they were perfect)

Nutty Bites 188: Your Heroes are Trash!

Posted on March 13, 2021 by Nuchtchas

Your Heroes are Trash!

Your Heroes are Trash, aka problematic heroes. We got together to discuss some leading role and supposed heroes that are just gross people. Characters who shouldn’t be looked up to, but we are told we should be rooting for them and identifying with them. Do these portrayals tell us more about the writers? Or us as a society for turning them into heroes?

Villains

We’ve done a show about our Favorite Villains, but that was 9 years ago. So we decided to yell at each other for over an hour about villains we love from media we have been consuming lately.
