To be continued icon Han Peekel passed away

Unfortunately, we have to talk about this time the death of Han Peekel atthe age of 75. I think for many Nerds among us this man has won a place inthe heart. For example, who used to not watch the spiritual successor to NerdCulture? Of course I’m talking about To be continued. Completely in stylewith a bow tie, Han Peekel informed you about the latest news about comicbooks and cartoons. It was not only very nice to watch, but also informativeas we show how, for example, Meneer Bommel en Tompoes was made. Although theprogram has been off the air for many years, we will never forget it togetherwith Mr. Pekel.

Brendan Fraser is a name that comes up often in many an episode of the show.Of course we grew up with The Mummy and George of the Jungle, but lately it’smostly about the glorious comeback he’s currently making in Hollywood. So wehave today the trailer of A24 ‘s The Whale. An arthouse film, so sit backand enjoy!

Avatar 2: The Way of Water most successful release ever

Avatar 2: The Way of Water was released in theaters this week.
