The Game Fanatics is a nerd culture community run by a team of diverse content creators. We are the nerds our friends ask whether or not the new Mortal Kombat game slaps, which anime not to miss this season, or if that new smart TV holds up to true 4K gaming. The weebs who’ll walk you through our personal ranking of Hov’s discography, the most useless keyblades in Kingdom Hearts history, and the Attack on Titan lore without skipping a beat or scuffing our grails.
At The Game Fanatics, it is our mission to celebrate games, and the awesome people who make them.
Got a tip? We’d love to hear from you!

The Movie Fanatics Commentary Podcast 09 | Honey, I Shrunk the Kids
After watching one of my all-time favorite films last week, Ben picked a movie from his younger days, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. We can’t exactly call the experience nostalgic, but there was plenty to talk about. Listen in as we talk about odd inventions, giant ants, and the career of Rick Moranis as briefly as possible. Largely because this movie is ridiculous, but in an endearing, very intentional way. Along the way, we discover a few things about science. Or maybe we make up our own; it’s debatable, I think.
Less debatable is the fun use of special effects in this film. The world is a much different place 1/4 of an inch above the ground. Sprinklers become hurricanes, LEGOs become impromptu fortresses, and Cheerios are much deadlier. It’s Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, a fun film that, ultimately, only amounts to little more than that.
