It’s been over a fortnight since the last full ToB Podcast but the guys are back to unpack a metric ton of nerdy news. Starting with Marvel, who certainly didn’t help lighten the news load, as they dropped both a Captain Marvel trailer AND a teaser for Avengers 4, now titled Avengers: Endgame. On top of that Disney released the first teaser for their Lion King remake, which quickly became an internet sensation. Plus, as we get closer to the premiere of Aquaman, DC treated us to even more footage with their final trailer. Julian, Dan and Jeremy also discuss the latest drama out of the Oscars, debate Christmas movie lists and question the strange Sonic the Hedgehog “motion poster”. All that, and much more, on this week’s Tower of Babble Podcast!

Hello ToB Fans, we have a special bonus episode for you this week! Julian was invited to guest on the Daily DVR podcast with Axel Foley. It’s a show we’ve mentioned before so it was a real treat to receive the invitation. The guys discuss, among other things, Disney+ and it’s initial lineup, the new Handmaid’s Tale sequel novel coming from Margaret Atwood, Sylvester Stallone and Creed 2, Young Justice and a lot more!

On this week’s show the guys unpack the Detective Pikachu trailer, discuss the official name and lineup of Disney’s streaming service, Disney+, dive into episode six of Titans and so much more. But unfortunately, it’s not all fun and games, as Julian, Daniel and Jeremy also look back on the legacy of Stan Lee after his passing.

There appears to be one constant among those who’ve seen The Last Jedi. Whether you liked it or not people seem to agree that Benicio Del Toro’s character is terrible. Playing a character named DJ he doesn't have a huge role in the film, but with so much hate being thrown his way I wanted to offer him up some defense.

Feeling down? In a funk? Well you aren't alone and I have the perfect tonic to break you out of your slump. It's called The Good Place and it's a comedy with so much happiness and bliss that I guarantee you'll be smiling from ear to ear from minute one. Let me sell you on it.

Every cable network and streaming service seems to have a "must watch" show. With so much quality content out there how are you supposed to pick? This is the most important question facing TV lovers in this era of "peak TV", and with so many options it's easy to get overwhelmed and miss out on the best series. Here's a strategy that just might help you find your new favourite show.

Star Wars Battlefront II officially launches tomorrow. What should have been an overwhelmingly exciting day for gamers and Star Wars fans alike is instead mired in a controversy. Microtransactions, specifically loot boxes, have reportedly poisoned the games multiplayer and people aren't happy. I look at the reason why so many gamers are frustrated by EA's microtransaction strategy.

With the news that Disney could possibly buy 21st Century Fox a lot of the surrounding talk has been about what would happen with Fox's Marvel properties, specifically The X-Men. People get excited at the prospect of seeing Wolverine and the gang join up with The Avengers in the MCU but is it really a good idea?

Justice League is just around the corner and DC's massive superhero team-up will undoubtedly do just fine at the box office. The real question is whether it will actually be any good? It's too early to know for sure but there are definitely some signs and symptoms that might be pointing to another critical disappointment for DC and Warner Bros.

Tis' the season for spooks and scares. So with freights on my mind I put some thought (and some actual research) into why certain people are more inclined to enjoy horror movies. Personally, they scare the pants off of me, but what is it about those weirdos who love em?

This week EA announced that there would be major changes coming to their much anticipated action-adventure Star Wars game. Along with that news we learned that they would be closing Visceral Games, the studio who had been working on the game since 2013. I examine what their curt press release says about the future of the game, the publisher and the games industry as a whole.

The latest sci-fi blockbuster failed to impress at the box office this past weekend. This news shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone though. It's a phrase becoming far too common these days. So what caused Blade Runner 2049, a well made and well reviewed movie, to fail financially? The signs were staring us right in the face.

It’s that time of year; the temperature is dropping, the leaves are falling and new shows are hitting our TVs. Things are a bit more complicated this year however. It’s not as easy as it once was. You can't just set your PVR to record all the new hit series. Some things are on premium cable, others can only be found on streaming services. So which one’s are worth watching? I’ve taken a look at some of this fall’s biggest new series and give you the scoop on which one’s are worth your time and money.
