Cinema Royale: Talking ‘Avatar: The Way Of Water’ And ‘Babylon’

It’s a very merry holiday pair of Cinema Royale episodes since I’ve been away for so damn long! I’m joined by my buddy Chris Bumbray of Joblo.com to talk about the film James Cameron has made us wait thirteen years for, Avatar: The Way of Water! It’s got some big blue shoes to fill, so does the sequel hold up? Will it be a box office juggernaut, or will it sink?

Plus, I’m joined by film critic Don Shanahan to discuss Damien Chazelle’s sprawling Hollywood jazz age epic, Babylon, starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie!

All of this and more, like Chris and I going on a tangent about Canadian TV shows. I don’t know how we got there, but we went there.
