Wordiezett So much average

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

mbrumbley I watched a few episodes of "King of the Nerds" and came to a startling realization, and that is that nerds in a group act a lot like the rest of us. I watched this show because I thought that maybe somewhere in the world some people may be able to look over all the crap that society shoves down people's throat about the right way to act and look, and be themselves. I thought if there are people that can do that it would definitely be the nerdy type, but these "nerds" are just as underhanded as the rest of us. I watched three episodes and they put this African American guy in the "nerd off" all three episodes. This puzzled me, so I looked back on all these "nerd offs" and there was only one time that a member of his team had to go to a nerd off that he didn't go. I also noticed that every time he went to the nerd off everyone in the house cheered for the nerd that was competing against him. Actually, one of the other contestants actually volunteered herself to go to the "nerd off" because she was a huge horror buff and she really thought she could beat him. It was like they were all teaming up against him. I'm sorry, but this looked like bullying to me. All these nerds say that they were bullied as they grew up, but when the tables were turned they did the same thing. I understand that they are trying to win a game, but the means should justify the ends. I don't think these "nerds" see this the same way. BTW after watching this, I'm never eating Little Caesars again.

Animus The show is nothing special, i mean we have shows about cooks, shows about hunters, shows about people who buy storage buildings, shows about truck drivers, so a show about who is the "best" nerd is nothing special. The problem with the show is two-fold. First and foremost as they recognize there are many types of nerds yet the goal of the show is to sit atop the "Throne of Games", a twist on the popular "Game of Thrones" which is a much better show to watch than this one, but I digress. The show tries to cover a lot of types of nerds as as such most contestants are at a disadvantage most of the time since the challenges cover a diverse range of skills. On a cooking show you might be asked to make desserts one week and Italian food the next but you still use the same tools and the same skills. Creating a cos-play costume is NOTHING like piloting a drone, winning at chess, or answering obscure trivia. The second problem is how the winner is actually chosen. The whole concept is to focus on nerds, people who are perceived as social misfits, the kids never chosen for sports or to be prom queen, yet in the end the winners chosen BY A POPULARITY CONTEST! Epic Fail.

Jack Tan The hosts were awesome! They were our(fellow nerds) heroes growing up... I loved them in Revenge of the Nerds! Also the fact that they have a place called Nerdvana is supremely appropriate! It really is too bad that some of the best nerds were some of the first to go out (Jon, Hendrik, and Brandon)...all 3 in the first 3 episodes. Don't get me wrong, the other nerds on the show are super awesome nerds and were delightful in their own nerdish ways, but those 3 were some of the most "colorful" nerds on there. As Celeste put it, Brandon was adorkable and he was by far my favorite. In the end, a lot of them remind me of my fellow nerd friends (past and current) and they each have a nerd "flavor" that I could definitely feel the essence of from comic nerds/gamers/science & math nerds/fantasy & rpg nerds. I love how in the end the King of the Nerds was chosen by their fellow nerds... it may be true that a popularity contest is not very nerd-like, but the fact that everyone voting is a high-caliber nerd made it right.

Foxbarking I was really looking forward to this show from the first time it was advertised. I have always fit very securely in the nerd demographic. The commercials made it look like it was going to be the new rave in reality television.It has not lived up to those expectations. There are some interesting participants in the competition. Some of the guests are fun to see. But honestly, I am failing to see the point in the competition. The Throne of Games looks quite stupid and sitting on it seems to be the only prize the winner will get. None of the players really seem motivated to win it. In the episode tonight, Virgil's attitude is the correct one. He has lost all interest because there is no reason to have it. Alana was the only nerd who seemed motivated to win and she was the single most annoying reality show character since Puck in the third Real World.The competitions are boring. Cosplay is not fun when you make up your own characters. The point of it is that you get to BECOME an actual character in media. If you are just making up costumes and playing, it's not Cosplay. The video game competition had the nerds piloting a hovering device rather than playing video games. The nerdoff sets are subparr compared to Ren Faire sets.Nothing else about the show works either. Nerdvana as a nerd paradise leaves a lot to be desired. Curtis Armstrong and Robert Carradine's participation seems forced.All I can say is that it seems like they threw this show together way too quickly. The idea was great, but they should have worked to get sponsors that would make the competition more interesting. They could work with Marvel or Tite Kubo to cosplay Marvel or Bleach. They could have had actual video games on consoles. It is just so unfortunate that such a great idea was so poorly executed.
