It turns out that 'Downton Abbey' fandom is alive and well, as the film adaptation of the popular TV show became Focus Features' highest opening weekend ever with its $31 million, hinting at a new trend in TV-to-film adaptations for studios.
And thanks to both 'Ad Astra' and 'Rambo: Last Blood', we longer have to talk about 'The Lion King' as part of the top five (thank the heavens!!!), as the two films open right near each other. Nick and Brennan discuss these two films -- with a bit of an extended conversation on 'Ad Astra' -- as well as 'Hustlers' continued success and a look at awards season as it begins to take shape. All this and more in this week's episode of The MovieBabble Podcast!
