To celebrate the fourth anniversary of the podcast, Beef Pork Ribs and Average Joe revisit an old episode topic for a new segment called "What Were We Thinking?" This time, we look back on the conversation from Episode #26, where we tried to define the differences between a nerd and a geek. Did we get it right? Have our opinions changed since then?

Special guests Ben The Movie Buff and Michael Andrew join us this week to tackle the tricky subject of movies adapted from video games.

Super Mario Bros. Warcraft. Resident Evil. Angry Birds. Why have so many movies based on video games turned out so badly? Is it simply impossible to adapt immersive, interactive experiences into a movie? What do the most famous (or rather imfamous) video game movies have in common?

Special guest Michael Andrew stops by to help Average Joe process his very conflicted feelings about the television series "Titans". Does this gritty, violent take on some of AJ's favourite comic book characters do the characters justice? Are the issues fans have with this series legitimate criticisms or are they being source material purists? Is the series better with a week-to-week release schedule or with the option to binge-watch an entire season?

The Prince of Egypt- one of the few traditionally animated films released by DreamWorks Animation. One of the few attempts at telling a story from The Bible from a major Hollywood studio.

And how many times can they mention the title of the movie in the script?
