Julian and Matt start getting into the swing of thigs as they tackle the latest in film and TV news, with the hot story being about the turmoil surrounding the new Bond film. Fortunately, 'Goldeneye' turns 30, providing a positive 007 topic to dig into in an effort to balance things out. A new 'The Mummy' starring Brendan Fraser is in the works with Rachel Weis also set to return. To Matt's chagrin, more 'Jurassic World' is on the way as well with the 5th film in the franchise in development with Gareth Edwards looking to return to direct (say what you will but 'Jurassic World: Rebirth' was pretty fun). Lastly, the guys dive into what they've been watching, including 'Predator: Badlands', 'One Battle After Another', 'Pluribus' and for some reason, 'Dexter'. All that and so much more on this week's Tower of Babble Podcast!

This week I'm bringing you two exceptional guests. With the much-anticipated nationwide release of feature film Rental Family on November 21, my first interview is with the Japanese co-writer and director Hikari! Her latest creation has already garnered a 97% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and I feel that it's one of the best films that I've seen in years. I'll go out on a limb and predict that Brendan Fraser will be nominated for Best Actor in a Lead Role, Hikari will get the nod for Best Director and/or Best Original Story, and Rental Family will be nominated for Best Picture. My main interview is with South Asian American music prodigy Neil Nayyar, who is the current world record holder for playing 130+ musical instruments from all over the globe. You'll get to know how he discovered his innate gifts and abilities, and even though he loves it, how hard he keeps working to improve his prowess on all these diverse instruments. And I doubt that you'll be surprised when he tells you about the new musical skillset he began developing during the COVID shutdown. You can learn about his 2024 debut album "Breaking Barriers" and his 2024 illustrated book "Passion to Exploration of 107 Sound Machines" by visiting www.neilnayyar.com. #rentalfamilymovie #breakingbarriers

Frank and Jonathan kick off with announcements and a fun question of the week about sequels that outshine the originals. News hits include The Mummy's return with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, the 2029 plan for K-Pop Demon Hunters, and Grand Theft Auto VI shifting to November 19, 2026. Frank reviews Predator: Badlands and explains why it works for both Predator fans and sci-fi diehards. Then Ken Maney of the ODPH joins for a thoughtful conversation about podcasting in 2025, community, video vs audio, and practical advice for new and veteran creators. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, intros, and what's ahead 00:13 Announcements: BlizzCon dates, SF Fan Expo plans, and Patreon holiday care packages 01:50 Question of the Week: Sequels better than the originals 06:24 News: The Mummy returns with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz 14:18 K-Pop Demon Hunters sequel targeting 2029, expectations and story threads 20:11 GTA 6 moves to November 19, 2026 and what that means for the industry 26:58 Review: Predator: Badlands (world-building, effects, performances, and that ending) 40:19 Interview: Ken Maney (ODPH) on origin stories, community, and staying power 1:21:00 Wrap up and ways to support Key Takeaways Sequels can outpace originals when they sharpen tone and character focus. The Mummy's return works best if it leans into family-friendly adventure with practical set pieces. K-Pop Demon Hunters has time to scale up music collabs and world-building, even with a long runway. GTA 6's delay is a net positive if it delivers a polished launch and avoids crowding the release calendar. Predator: Badlands thrives on a tight premise, clear character intent, and a mix of practical work with CG. Podcasting longevity comes from community, consistency, and knowing your "why," not from chasing viral tricks. Video helps some shows, but strong content and an audio-first workflow still carry a lot of weight. New creators should focus on making the best episode they can today, then repeat. Veterans should reconnect with their original purpose to beat burnout. Quotes "Be comfortable being uncomfortable. If you want to grow, you have to push yourself." — Ken Maney "Everybody thinks they're a content creator until it's time to create content." — Ken Maney "Don't worry about everybody else. Worry about your own house." — Ken Maney "Predator: Badlands works because the intent is simple. Kill the monster. The rest builds from there." — Frank "Delay GTA 6 if it means a cleaner launch. One bad week can sink a decade of goodwill." — Frank Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, follow and subscribe, leave a quick rating, and drop a review.

Send us a textWe start with a laugh-out-loud hangover debrief, then pivot into a sharp, empathetic breakdown of the Love Is Blind reunion—calling out awkward AI-sounding lines, unrealistic body expectations, and the way job titles can mask the truth about class and respect. It's messy, honest, and kinder than the internet's comment section.From there, we shift into joy and nostalgia. We map out Emily's Comic-Con game plan—VIP passes, a Brendan Fraser moment, Legends of the Hidden Temple shirts—and talk about why fandoms matter when you're building new memories after loss. It's part shopping list, part love letter to the 90s, and a reminder that shared rituals make grief gentler to carry.The heart of the episode is a candid conversation about ADHD and executive function. We unpack how everyday tasks can feel impossible, the power of gratitude journaling to shift mood, and realistic coping strategies that actually help: cleaning support to break shame cycles, music on burned-out days, and permission to choose tiny wins. Then we go deep on SNAP benefits and food access, disagreeing without disconnecting. One of us argues for healthier guardrails; the other defends dignity of choice and the realities of food deserts.

This episode proves that nothing gold can stay, especially your 401k, as we kick things off with the revelation that October saw the worst tech layoffs since 2003, all while "Big Short" genius Michael Burry decided to bet a billion dollars on the inevitable AI bubble bursting. The villains of the week are legion: the FCC is officially making it easier for internet companies to charge us even more hidden fees; Elon Musk not only got his $1 trillion pay package approved—despite Tesla sales collapsing nearly 90% in some countries—but he also teased a flying car, clearly living in his own "Golden Dome" fantasy, which the Pentagon is happily subsidizing; and in a stunning display of entitlement, Mark Zuckerberg opened an illegal school, which is somehow less shocking than Meta's claim that their massive porn stash was purely for "personal use," not AI training. The bad news doesn't stop there, with Texas suing Roblox over 'pixel pedophiles,' though at least a rural Michigan healthcare system is doing some good by using drones to improve care.Jumping over to Media Candy, since we're all emotionally scarred by the sheer awful-ness of The Witcher S4—a season so bad it "broke" The Critical Drinker—we need some comfort viewing. We're deep-diving into the political chess of The Diplomat and escaping into the sheer volume of competitive cooking shows, including the standard Halloween and Holiday Baking Championships, plus the delightfully ridiculous Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking S2; we also took a look at Pluribus, Knife Edge, Black Rabbit, and the trailer for Tron: Ares, while cheering the fact that Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are set to revive The Mummy franchise for a fourth film. In Apps & Doodads, we're all mourning the eventual death of simple, good tech as we're warned to enjoy Apple CarPlay while we still can, but at least the Lego ‘Star Trek' Set is finally here for our inner child; the real question, though, is why Automattic Inc. thinks they can claim ownership of the actual word 'Automatic.'Finally, The Dark Side with Dave Bittner reminds us that everything old is new again and ripe for monetization, whether it's Miss Piggy potentially bringing back The Muppets to the movies or the sleek, blacked-out remake of the Commodore 64, not to mention that cool Tron Arcade Cabinet Miniature Model. However, the present is still a complete dumpster fire: a Google AI model allegedly accused a senator of sexual assault, and internal documents show that Meta is earning a fortune on a massive deluge of fraudulent ads, proving that the only thing getting healthier is our paranoia, though Dave did throw in a curveball with some special jar lids and seeds for growing organic sprouts. We finish, as always, with the obligatory Closing Shout-Outs because even cynical geeks need validation.Sponsors:MasterClass - Get an additional 15% off any annual membership at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSGusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Jim Hill and Eric Hersey dig into a newly surfaced Universal guest survey that hints at Epic Universe joining the resort's Annual Pass lineup — and what that could mean for crowds, pricing, and park strategy. Plus, Jim shares a real-life road trip saga straight out of a Hallmark movie, and the guys unpack Universal's latest headlines from Orlando to Hollywood. NEWS A listener-sent Universal survey suggests Epic Universe may soon be included in AP tiers. Comcast's Q3 results show a 19% jump in theme park revenue, driven by Epic's first full quarter. The Burning Blade Tavern's fire effect goes dark — and fans dub it “The Invisible Blade.” Jim explains why Spider-Man still appears in Universal marketing — thanks to a contract clause requiring 20% Marvel representation in Islands of Adventure ads. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz return for a brand-new Mummy sequel, proving Universal's monster legacy isn't dead yet. FEATUREJim continues his deep dive into Universal's ill-fated Dark Universe — the studio's ambitious attempt to build a monster-filled cinematic universe. From Dracula Untold to The Mummy (2017), discover how even A-list stars and big budgets couldn't resurrect the undead franchise.

Matt and Eric cover THE MUMMY's big return -- with OG stars Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz -- the the SCREAM 7 trailer, the death of the STAR TREK Kelvin-verse, MISS PIGGY, and more...
I have a small and weird list of things that bug me. A Frenchman earlier this year discovered a gold treasure worth $800,000 while digging a swimming pool in his garden. Which reminded me of when I had to bury our family dog in an awkward place. Worst time-capsule ever! MaineHealth apologizes for sending death notices to 500+ living people. I blame the lazy I.T. guy. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are reportedly in talks with movie executives to reunite for the next instalment of “The Mummy” franchise. Rico Dowdle was fined $14K for Key & Peele celebration, so he started a GoFundMe for charity. My awkward interaction with a fan. Stories of stealing things from the workplace.

The battle for Warner Bros. Discovery is seeing a new champion enter the ring, with Netflix making some moves to put their own bid in for the studio's properties. According to Reuters, the streaming pioneer engaged with investment bank Moelis & Co. in order to prepare an offer. Ironically, this is the same bank that worked with David Ellison at Skydance to take over Paramount whose first bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery was rejected. It was the worst weekend at the box office this year, with ticket sales coming in at just $52.4 million. This also makes it the lowest-grossing Halloween weekend in 31 years, excluding theater closures due to COVID in 2020. While new film Regretting You took in a respectable $50 million, Black Phone 2 really has the crown from the weekend having now brought in $104 million globally - another huge win for horror this year. Yorgos Lanthimos' new film Bugonia, starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, is sitting at a small $11.1 million globally after breaking into more theaters.Both Scream 7 and Stranger Things Season 5 released trailers recently. Stranger Things' official trailer showed us a bit more of what to expect from that property and Scream 7, which releases on February 27, 2026, gave us a glance at the returning original cast members of Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, Matthew Lillard, and David Arquette. As we discussed last week, Stranger Things will release in three parts on holiday weekends, four episodes on November 26, three episodes on Christmas Day, and the finale on New Year's Eve.A 'Conjuring' prequel film is in development at Warner Bros. and New Line, with short film director Rodrigue Huart in talks to direct. Franchise veterans Richard Naing and Ian Goldberg, who co-wrote the two prior “Conjuring” films, 2023's “The Nun II” and this September's “The Conjuring: Last Rites,” are on board to pen the screenplay.After landing the rights to turn one of the world's biggest video games into an epic movie, Paramount has now landed two A-list filmmakers to develop it. Sources tell Deadline that Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan and Peter Berg have joined Paramount and Activision to develop and produce a Call of Duty movie, with Paramount distributing a live-action feature film.Hulu has ordered two more seasons of the revived King of the Hill animated series, the 16th and 17th overall and third and fourth seasons as a streaming original. Season 14 premiered in August and is the first half of Hulu's initial two-season, 20-episode order; season 15 is set to debut in 2026.Sam Mendes' four Beatles films have filled out the cast by adding the spouses of the four band members.

The film will once again be written, directed and produced by the same team behind 2023's “Godzilla Minus One.” Currently, there are no plot details, but the studio is currently targeting a release date in late 2026.Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are going back to the desert for The Mummy 4. The film will be directed by the duo known as Radio Silence, composed of Martin Bettinelli-Opin and Tyler Gillett, who directed 2019's Ready or Not.

On today's Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the big news: Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are in talks to return for a new “The Mummy.” The film is set up at Universal with Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett) directing, and reporting points to a sequel that ignores the third movie. We also talk tone, why fans wanted this, and what early creative choices suggest for the adventure-meets-horror vibe. Timestamps & Topics00:00 — Return of “The Mummy,” Fraser and Weisz talks, nostalgia context 00:18 — Radio Silence attached; quick recap of their recent films 00:34 — Expecting scarier elements and classic undead set pieces 00:50 — Timeline status, what's next, promise to follow production updates Key TakeawaysUniversal is moving forward with a new “The Mummy,” with Fraser and Weisz in active talks. Radio Silence is attached to direct, setting expectations for energetic suspense and character-driven thrills. The third film is reportedly being sidelined, framing this as a spiritual follow-up to the first two entries. Early chatter points to a slightly scarier tone alongside the adventure flavor fans love. Plot and release details are still under wraps, but we'll track updates as they land.

Darren Aronofsky's films are about the body as battlefield — craving, decaying, reaching for redemption and collapsing under its weight. Requiem for a Dream (2000) is addiction as apocalypse, a symphony of repetition and ruin powered by Ellen Burstyn's tragic hunger for fame. The Wrestler (2008) trades chaos for quiet despair, with Mickey Rourke's washed-up hero chasing applause like a drug — a portrait of broken masculinity and fading glory. The Whale (2022) completes the cycle: Brendan Fraser's Charlie seeks forgiveness through reconnection with his daughter, eating himself alive to prove he still feels. Across all three, Aronofsky obsesses over self-destruction and the impossible longing to be seen again — by God, by the crowd, or by one's own child. His cinema is a study in human ruin: brutal, sacred, and endlessly reaching for grace.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

“Don't you love being famous?” Halloween on the podcast has arrived, and we're starting things off with a tribute to the LGBT horror icon James Whale. As the subject of the 1998 Bill Condon film Gods and Monsters, a partially fictional take on the last days of his life. The small moving film won Condon an Oscar for adapted screenplay and nominated its star Ian McKellen and a scene-stealing Lynn Redgrave as his housekeeper. Oscars they probably both should have won; don't worry, we get into it! The movie also brought Brendan Fraser's career to the next level as a hunky gardener who develops an unlikely friendship with Whale when he agrees to sit for the director to sketch. We talk about the queer people that helped build the horror genre and Whale's contributions with films like Frankenstein. “To a new world, of Gods and Monsters!” Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna
This week, Shat The Movies cranks the amps, loads the water guns and storms the radio station for 1994's Airheads. Commissioned by listener John W., this forgotten rock comedy captures a moment when being a long-haired metalhead still meant something—and when you had to physically take hostages just to get your demo played. Gene and Big D relive the glory days of Blockbuster soundtracks and flannel rebellion while asking: was Airheads secretly a Gen X prophecy about streaming, soulless algorithms and the death of radio or just a juvenile comedy where Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and Adam Sandler somehow make the dumbest idea ever seem kind of badass? Along the way, the hosts debate Brendan Fraser's heartthrob era, Steve Buscemi's brief flirtation with “normal guy energy” and why physical media might be the only thing keeping our culture alive. They also accidentally invent the world's first militant anti-Spotify movement. Is Airheads an under-appreciated anthem for the lost rock generation—or proof that metalheads should never be trusted with firearms, fake or not? Crank it up and find out.
