We’re celebrating the end of the movie year that was and the start of the movie year to come, plus our first year (minus a few months in the middle there) with Kevin at the helm! We’ve got our annual Maxie Awards, movies we’re looking forward to in 2026 and, most importantly, each host’s 10 favorites from 2025.

What's Good?
Alonso - Barebells
Drea - Warm (True) Spring
Kevin - a year of hosting (sorta)!
