Pevensie Reign, Foreign Mutants, Kanto Clones

from moss flower to moss eisley nerds are passionate about a lot of things but there's one thing they love above all else that is correcting people this is um actually [Music] joining us today we have zach oyama good evening becca scott hello and thomas middleditch [Music] and thomas suck it um aggressive again what are you going to do about it we were told um to be aware of situations like this where we bring a jock into a dork environment well the lion is in the cat are you feeling intimidated right now zach yeah i mean it's like filtering down like that and you becca i'm going to win i don't accept losing as an answer sure and thomas don't give a so uh here we are if you haven't played before the rules are pretty simple i have a stack of statements here about what fan fan franchises that have uh um actually it's called a fandom ah god damn it fine this is exactly why i hate you dorks popular fandoms becca uh but there's something wrong with each of these statements if you spot it buzz in and correct me your correction must be prefaced with the phrase um actually uh and you can interrupt me at any time just like in real life uh it doesn't matter what i'm like right now yeah exactly the point i'm trying to make it doesn't matter what matters is that you're better than everyone and you're here to prove it and prove that i'm a small weak man who doesn't know what he's talking about got it agreed great this first question is about x-men [Laughter] the x-men are one of the most multinational superhero teams in comics including storm from kenya colossus from the former soviet union and nightcrawler from germany meanwhile professor x cyclops wolverine and jean grey are all from the united states um actually yes becca you buzzing first storm is not from kenya she's from kenya okay um actually and i hate that i know this because i think all of it's dumb wolverine is from canada that's correct wolverine is from canada oh canada he shoots he scores the twine-seeking missile from the bottom to the top right at the blue line buddy that's sports this question is about cowboy bebop set in 2071 former gangster spike spiegel and ex-cop jet black work together as bounty hunters aboard jet's ship the bebop they are later joined by several younger crew members including faye valentine a con artist ed a hacker and a genetically enhanced corgi known as datadog um actually the corgi's name is ein it is ein but uh it is also known as data dog um actually faye valentine is older than them that's correct faye valentine is 77 years old he was cryogenically frozen and so it's technically older it's a fun anime with a bunch of jazz anime animations jazz finally combining the two things people are clamoring the most for the perfect blend still an electro synth pop opening i guess i don't know enough about music to debate that that's a good point neither do i neo electro sub stint i think that's the official uh music sub genre all right our next question is about the princess bride and eagle montoya's father was famously killed by the villainous prince humberdink when an ego was just a boy um actually he was killed by the six-fingered man not the prince that's correct but they're one in the same what no count rugen is the six-fingered man prince humperdinck is a different uh a character altogether killing it right now well robin wright had to marry prince humphrey dink who had six fingers no no it was his it was just zach even raised the finger i think unintentionally the show was made for you zach the six fingered man is christopher guess right i don't remember who plays according to my calculations you're right this question is about pokemon in the extended pokemon universe officer jenny and nurse joy appear to exist and work in every town though it is acknowledged that neither is a single entity but rather multiple identical clones zack i'm actually their sisters that's close enough though i'm actually their mother and daughter they're all a giant family they're all like identical related uh working in the exact same job they just happen to look that much alike they just happen to look that much alike they're just all family members i mean i would say that clones are family i mean family goes so much more beyond just like bio biology you know if you've seen the fast and the furious movies family is about um ride or die yeah family i mean if you've seen the light the latest one vin diesel literally says that 110 times this brings us to our first shiny question shiny questions like shiny pokemon are worth the same amount they're basically the same they're just a little bit different this is a little game called super saiyan [Music] fantastical worlds mean fantastical phrases here on the screen i want you to match the common expressions to the character associated with that expression so um this is surprisingly heavy yes we wanted to make it as big and heavy and difficult for you to manage as possible so the first person to correctly arrange all these things onto the correct character and buzz in will get the point i like it like yeah the gloves seem like they're uh gonna make this like way more difficult than it should be yeah okay oh oh becca already done sure all right show us what you got here okay um uh i'm looking at this this is not correct so someone else can still buzz in with a with a correct answer best boss oh this shit's all it's slipping and sliding it's almost like those gloves [Laughter] no they're those are important sports but you're not allowed to take those off all right we're looking at thomas's here is it um that is correct you know you can break these down linguistically you know you don't actually have to know the answers well unless you know these ones you got to know got man hbo home box office the home of the best television you're promoting the brands that you're affiliated with that's fine that's fine we can do that we're not allowed to plug no no we can plug we can plug uh we got az sh right that's like demon speak that's the kind of the demon klingon's got apostrophes and whatnot you know you can just you know break it down this is george lucas i mean of course it says poo-doo it's just like you can tell sophistication in nonsense language i don't actually know this this is soul calibur that is um that's from starcraft oh is he a zerg he's a protoss is it protoss no doy i can't wait for the internet to be alive without one it takes one thing and just like you can hear a million blood vessels bursting across like how could you take that it's exactly why i've turned jock course we're not perfect and we make mistakes too here are some that you found at blizzardstar1200 says um actually given that spike is currently holding the bloodstone scepter in the image used of him his current full title would be dragon lord spike well that sounds right to me i guess at craig murdock says um actually the fifth element while maybe not directly based on a comic is heavily influenced by the comic the incal by alejandro jodarowski that might possibly be true but i will award you no points because the publisher lost their lawsuit against luke bason at sad broncos fan says um actually the reavers are not mutants they're fully human test subjects who had a rare reaction to the g23 paxillon hydrochlorate resulting in symptoms of violent aggression their inhuman appearances due to self-mutilation not genetic mutation hey that's right they're not even mutants they're just insane humans moving along to question six this is about doctor who kill me in doctor who the doctor a 900 year old time lord from the planet gallifrey travels the universe with his trusty sonic screwdriver and his state-of-the-art tardis um actually it's pronounced fartus [Laughter] i'm actually it's doctor whom no only in the objective case actually his tardis is not state of the art it's just a call box you're correct enough that i'm going to give you a point even though you're just joking around it's not state of the art it's a piece of crap in fact the mark 40 which is the tardis that uh that he uses it's an old it's an iphone 3. in an iphone 10 world i got one point and i'm proud of it very good then we've got three one and two as we move on to question seven which is about tabletop games oh oh oh this is my champ don't you even put your buzzers down while the world of tabletop role playing is dominated by dungeons and dragons and its focus on high fantasy other games focus on other genres such as the world of darkness and its urban horror setting shadowrun cyberpunk dystopia and gurps's focus on superhero story oh um actually you're bringing curves into this actually gert stands for generic universal role playing system and can be applied to any world that is corrupt they do have a superhero compendium should you choose you play with gerbs hell yeah i started a game where everyone had to research a member of their choosing who signed the declaration of independence and then you know monsters and werewolves came and they had to fight them so you know someone did a presentation on button gwyneth and then as button it you know had to find out awesome you see i'm only anti-nerd when it's not the nerd thing that i don't know oh absolutely yeah yeah and that's come up on the show before too or it's like someone's like pokemon like why are we talking about this and then like the thing that you love so it's like no the gloves literally come off what about ice brighton like i gotta talk about this and george rr martin plays gerbs oh i didn't know that yes i cornered him and made me tell him that really yeah i just threatened him with a knife i won't leave you until you tell me you play gerbs all right fine spot on impressions he is he is guild or from masters of the universe the sonic key great uh our next question is about narnia narnia business shut the up edmund how could you i know the old one the four pevensy children come to narnia through the wardrobe to discover the land is in a perpetual winter suffering hardships of a trail by edmund and the temporary death of aslan at the stone table the pevensies overthrow the white witch and rule narnia for decades in a state of perpetual childhood becca you're so confident like watched becca's podium light up um actually they're not in a state of perpetual childhood they get old and then they get kicked out that's correct they live a whole full life in narnia yeah what's up actually they don't get kicked out um actually i got most of it right give me the point i'm going to give you the point because don't worry about it they do live full lives they live like full into adulthood they have like have sex if i was in a fantasy land i'd literally everything orgies like any sort of goat person you see yeah i'd be like what's up wanna hit it let's like floopy land yeah yeah yeah i was just like weren't you just in an episode where you were in a fantasy line where you everything i don't know i don't watch dork cartoons brings us to our second shiny question here's a little game called order up sci-fi is full of interplanetary and interstellar ships i want you to arrange these ships in alphabetical order by the name of the ship not its classification as before first person to buzz in with the correct arrangement will get the point you can go left or right or top to bottom whatever as long as it's like a clear order ooh i don't know the names all right so thomas is buzzing in first um that is incorrect if you think this one's over here i'm a real thing all right well uh okay because i have a feeling i have a feeling you do take a look at that because i see what you're going for and i i think that that is a more correct answer so let me just make sure uh this is this is still incorrect sorry uh zach you've buzzed in yes this uh that is incorrect oh then it's all up to me and i definitely got this okay uh okay so this is uh it's pretty close um this is correct uh until middle ditch is going to raise his angry point but go and tell me the names that we can get into m i don't know i don't know well it's still correct except for the point that middle just gotta erase from you right now you're right that is the enterprise but it's more accurately known as the uss enterprise but that's the classification right uh no because that's the origin it's like saying the the hms i don't know this is gonna start the biggest flame war i hope this show has a comment section we invite people to tweet at a very uh specific twitter handle to correct us so there's a quarantined area where people scream yeah um scream away uh so the enterprise from star trek galactica from battlestar galactica the millennium falcon from star wars that is ryoki from tenshi muyu and the serenity from firefly uh i can maybe give patrick a ring on this all right all right all right all right hey we've got an issue here i'm doing this thing you can clear this up well great that is a point for becca oh thank god threes across the board now of course we're not perfect here either and you may have noticed something that we got wrong if you would like to correct us tweet us at um actually show and we may give you a point this question is about star wars never heard of it never heard of it it's super popular it's what it's a big deal it's a bunch of movies i think there's a tv one of the most iconic buddy relationships of all time is that of han solo and his co-pilot chewbacca chewbacca only speaks to han in sri wok though we can understand english just fine while han only speaks to chewbacca in english as shreewook is rough on human vocal cords um actually it's not tough on human vocal cords han solo just don't give a yeah he's just a bad friend he's like come on learn it learn my life learn english what are you doing this is american space learn english uh no shreem brooke is actually very very rough on human vocal cords [Music] yeah zach i'm actually chewie doesn't understand anything he's just got to nauticalize the thing where he's like he's just sort of nodding when you like can't quite hear somebody like uh pass it off really well this is my new favorite fan theory but no as far as we know uh chewie can't understand just a total idiot we're gonna say like no one got this point i'm going to preface this by saying this is by far the the shittiest most pedantic question that we have in here chewbacca doesn't speak english nor does han english won't have been invented for many years [Music] yeah like anyone who speaks a different language is wrong it's very like basic normative you know it's like very like build the wall yeah like that language is worse and make wookies pay for it all right question 11 is about harry potter the position of defense against the dark arts teacher at hogwarts seems to be a cursed position of the seven professors that taught in that position during the seven years of the books all of them including queerness quarrel gilderoy lockhart remus lupin alistor maddie moody dolores umbridge severus snape and amicus cairo served only one year um actually after they let moody out of the box he never actually served as that is correct yeah mata moody never actually served because he was in the box the whole time uh it was actually um barty crouch jr who had drunk paulie juice potion uh who was serving as a teacher that particular year uh that much polyjuice potion is just gonna wreak havoc on your digestive system i feel really bad for him do you remember what hermione looked like as a cat you know because she accidentally drinks it with cat hair in it yeah and she turns into a cat and in the movie it looks like that you can tell they probably had a bunch of meetings where like we can't really figure this cat thing out just give her some like an ears headband and just gloss over it real fast this brings us to our final shiny question of the game mishmash mix them up [Music] in the land of westeros the great houses have their sigils and words symbols and sayings that communicate the spirit of the house the first person to match the sigils with the appropriate house words will get the point got it hell yeah cool see you've got some deep cuts no starks no lannisters everyone knows the starks and lannisters this is going to be embarrassing if i get anything wrong cool what are we looking at here well becca i'm sorry this is incorrect can i tell you all the houses though uh if you want to give your opponents an advantage yeah yeah i do but i just want to be right that's the heart of the game like it doesn't matter how much it hurts me yes zach this is also incorrect that's right all right hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on six times five times four times there's definitely like a couple that seem to be giving don't even don't even [Music] thomas let's see what you thinking here thomas this is correct eat it [Music] that is a point for thomas do you know the houses if you don't i'm willing to bet that becca's eager to jump are bonus points involved no bonus points just if you want to want to show off harkonnen the tradies um i know these are greyjoys these are fishlord these are unsullied this is yellow circle that's birdhouse and this is stag house uh becca do you have um more details let's see that's tully as in catlin tully that's highgarden that would be the tyrells over there is the baratheon sigil this is the martells you've got aaron and you've got greyjoy that is correct but the point still goes to thomas i know but i had to hey that's the spirit of the game i have to tell you i know the answer i need to tell you that i know just get in the basket uh this brings us to our final question of the game as always our final question concerns real life skills skills that are important in the real world and have nothing to do with any of the franchises we've talked about before all right irl when changing the tire on your car it's important to first block the wheel of the tire opposite the flat to remove the spare tire before you jack up the car and to loosen the lug nuts after you jack up the car um actually you want to jack up the car before you remove the tire uh you uh uh [Music] you yes zach zach do you have something to say um actually you want to loosen them up before you lift it up because it's too hard to do because the wheel will spin that's correct if you if you don't if you don't try to take the nuts off there won't be any resistance from the ground yeah which nuts these knives god damn it hey god damn you're all right dude really yeah yeah you brought out on that question wow i've run over a bunch of before uh we do have an issue though our very first question that we asked this round there was a double error becca you said that uh storm was not from kenya that is true in certain versions uh as she is born in manhattan thomas you are still correct that a wolverine is canadian but becca you are also correct in spotting the second error that was inadvertently so guess what he never did an [Laughter] so with that uh final correction that brings becca into the lead and that is the end of our game four points each for zach and thomas and five whoa wassai nice one guys it was a pleasure thank you for the real handshake oh and that's it for our episode today join us next time for the game of nerdy pedantic corrections on um actually um actually it's pronounced um actually i didn't hear the difference
