Julian and Jeremy get together to try to make sense of the current tumultuous state of Hollywood. With the actors joining the writers on strike, the pressure mounts for studios, who are currently going through an almost unprecedented streak of box office failures. It's not looking good out there folks! Which is why it was necessary to revive the "Agree or Disagree" segment of the show to really dive into the complexities of the situation. Meanwhile, DC Studios continues to try to steady the ship by announcing casting news for 'Superman: Legacy'. Surprisingly they've gone further than just announcing who will be playing Clark and Lois, and added character announcements for the likes of Guy Gardner, Hawk Girl and more. Unsurprisingly, this leads to some debate on the merits of James Gunn's recent decision making. On top of that, the guys discuss a grab-bag of movie topics to round out the show. All this and so much more on this week's episode of the Tower of Babble Podcast!

Episode 46 - Year End Top 3
Happy holidays to all of the Tower of Babble Nation. We got together early on a holiday morning to record a special year end episode for all of you. Most podcasts wait until the new year to do their top 10 lists but we decided to do something a little different. We compiled a list of not our top 10, but a list of our top 3 games, television shows and movies of 2014. A top 10 is easy, and inevtiably ends up with items you didnt really love at the bottom end. So we decided to make things tough on ourselves and restrict it to a much smaller number and put it up on Christmas Day.

So even though it's been slow for news we pulled together another great episode. Out of Nintendo we discuss the New Nintendo 3DS as well as some rumored characters for Smash Bros. We break down a few news bits out of Gamescom. In particular, the Rise of the Tomb Raider hullabaloo.
