The Geekly Forecast is a weekly preview of all the neat stuff coming to screens, stores, and living rooms near you!
Recommendations:
TV: While The Walking Dead will almost always be a hit for us, American Crime looks like the ground-breaking television that basic cable needs in order to keep up with big guys. Written by John Ridley, American Crime is already being highly-touted.
Music: While they may be a little hipster, Never Shout Never has an amazing modern pop sound.
Netflix: Everyone needs to laugh, and Aziz Ansari is the man to deliver. Check out Aziz Ansari: Live at Madison Square Garden (2015).
Movies: We are suckers for Science-Fiction, yet Neill Blomkamp’s Chappie looks more like a story about humanity than robots, and we are totally down with that.
DVD: You may not agree with the Oscar nominations (and we don’t either), but Foxcatcher is worth the watch, if for nothing more than for Steve Carrel’s heavy breathing.
