Episode 184 - Babylon
Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of Hollywood’s biggest bombs. This month, Not A Bomb is examining some of 2023’s biggest box office failures and critically lambasted films! Once again, Brad’s shenanigans are back and he’s breaking all the rules. On this week’s episode, the guys welcome back Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss the very divisive film from 2022 that didn’t get a wide release until 2023, Babylon. This three hour epic is an ode to Hollywood during the transition from silent films to talkies (imagine Singing in the Rain but much darker in tone). Notable for its All-Star cast, Babylon failed to make an impact at the box-office and divided most critics. Does Babylon’s 3-hour runtime deserve your attention? Is it too obnoxious, trangressive, and pretensious for the average film fan? Or maybe this is a visually majestic tragedy that will soon become a cult classic? Download and listen!
Babylon is directed by Damein Chazelle and stars Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Diego Calva, Jean Smart, Jovan Adepo, Li Jun Li, P.J. Bryne, Lukas Haas, Max Minghella, Rory Scovel, Katherine Waterston, and Tobey Maguire.
As the year comes to an end, Not A Bomb wants to know your best/worst films of 2023. Head over to Not A Bomb and submit your choice!
Also, longtime friend of Troy and Brad, Michael Neel, released his movie - Infinite Santa 8000 via Synapse Films. Do yourself a favor and order your copy before they are gone.
