Tower of Babble

As the summer movie season hits full stride Julian, Daniel and Jeremy reunite in the same room for the first time in over a year. To Celebrate, the ToB Crew reviews Deadpool 2 as well as covers some of the news, including Jake Gyllenhaal being up for the role of Mysterio, Zachari Levi's first official photo as Shazam!, the real possibility of a Lando Calrissian Star Wars spin-off movie and when we might actually see an Obi-Wan Kenobi movie. The guys also touch on a few of things they've been up to recently and at the back half of the show dive into the "fridging" debate surrounding Deadpool 2. All that and so much more on this week's Tower of Babble Podcast!

It's only Julian and Jeremy inside the proverbial 'tower' this week as they break down the latest in film and television news. The Guys give their impressions on Shane Black's 'The Predator' trailer and how similar it was to 'Venom' in it's ability to underwhelm. Moving on, they discuss the early buzz coming out of 'Solo: A Star Wars Story' following it's world premier and the latest out DC and Warner Brothers, including the possibility of Peter Jackson joining the DC fold. On the TV front it's a focus on what shows are coming back next year and which aren't as it's that time of year when renewal and cancellation announcements are made. All that and so much more on this week's Tower of Babble Podcast!

Infinity War is officially the biggest movie in the world right now, making this the perfect occasion to jump back into a regular podcast schedule. Julian is back in Canada and ready to nerd out after a few months off the grid with his old pals Jeremy and Dan. The guys break down everything in Marvel's massive tent-pole blockbuster, looking at what made the movie such an unprecedented undertaking and where it might have missed the mark. It's an all Avengers episode this week on The Tower of Babble Podcast!

I know its been a minute but Tower of Babble is back! Dan and Jeremy sit down to recap weeks worth of news from both Marvel and DC camps. With the excitement for Infinity War already through the roof, we're talking all things Marvel leading up to the event; Deadpool 2 news, some pretty obscure Infinity War theories, and of course Black Panther. A little more low-key on the DC side with set photos from Shazam, rumours of big changes to the Flashpoint movie, new DC animation. All this and whatever else we felt like talking about, enjoy.

The 2018 Oscars are here, and so is the ToB crew. Dan and Julian sit down to touch on all the Best Picture nominations and discuss most of the major categories before picking winners and favourites. This year we were treated to a diverse array of films; from the melodic and thoughtful "Call Me by Your Name" to the raw, visceral experience of "Dunkirk", a quirky coming-of-age tale in "Ladybird", and the invigorating, unpredictable thriller "Get Out. We saw incredible performances all around, including Sally Hawkins acting without a voice, Gary Oldman embodying Winston Churchill, and Daniel Day-Lewis in his proposed swan song. More than any other year in recent memory there's a little something for everyone in this year's nominees. Enjoy.
