This week was exceptionally nerdy with Einstein’s Birthday, Pi Day, Pie Day, and the release of Beauty and the Beast! I was silly to think it would be a slow nerdy news week, but I was wrong. Check out the bites below.

3. Game of Thrones
One of the biggest news and one of the longest announcement processes was the Game of Thrones premiere date. Yes, we sat through the melting of that damn block of ice.

2. The Little Mermaid
This caused a bit of controversy this week, because people love to judge things before they actually experience something for themselves! Don’t be a dick, and assume things. This Little Mermaid is not Disney’s Ariel. Starring folks popular in the nerdom: Shanara Chronicles‘ Poppy Drayton and Narnia‘s William Moseley.
1. Aladdin
Onto Disney live action, and news of our favorite street rat. Open casting calls are being held, and it looks like filming will begin this July! See more details here.
Alright kids, if you know someone who fits this, you better share this with them. Submit asap. Good luck my babies pic.twitter.com/PLP37ritcV
