In this episode, we talk about Simon Pegg and his controversial comments about the state of geekdom. It seems that the lord of the geeks has finally grown up. We debate whether Pegg has truly left the fold or if he is tired of the watered-down commercialization.
Throughout the show: Kent plays Nostradamus and predicts the fatigue and end of superhero flicks. Joel feels that the truly memorable dramas are now on TV, instead of the big screen. Jacob apparently hates John Travolta. Find out why this is all important in the latest episode of Baconsale!
