we can't go any further without first acknowledging
1:10
Those that we lost in 2025.

1:22
I guess you could say,
1:24
throughout 2025.
1:25
Of course,
1:26
I'm going to miss a lot of names.
1:29
There's a lot of names that I'm going to miss because I just couldn't get them all or fit them all in on this show.
1:36
And let's not forget those of us who have lost loved ones.
1:40
selves throughout the year i know i lost uh a few family members a couple of family members throughout this year and for those of you who have lost loved ones throughout 2025 my condolences to you i know that is tough and
1:57
if you're a big fan of certain films or certain actors and their loss probably hit you pretty tough like a couple of them on this list that hit me
2:09
right in the gut like man really you know it is it's really sad when somebody passes away no matter how old they are how young they are or their status or whatever the case may be a loss is a loss and this year is no exception we had a few that cut pretty deep and
2:32
the first one on our list we have Richard Chamberlain and I remember him from

And didn't get them all written down and didn't get them all acknowledged on this show.
8:01
But my condolences to their families.
8:04
Much love to them.
8:07
Also,
8:09
before we get into the awards,
8:11
let's acknowledge one thing here.
8:14
I want to shout out the great city of New Orleans.
8:18
2025 couldn't have started off any worse.
8:25
than New Orleans did.
8:26
New Orleans,
8:27
I mean,
8:28
it was just mayhem after mayhem when it came to the beginning of 2025.
8:34
Literally,
8:35
the first day in 2025,
8:38
we had a terror attack in the French Quarter.
8:41
That was on
8:43
January the 1st.
8:45
We had a terror attack.
8:46
Then you had a blizzard that took place at the beginning of the year.
8:51
Then you had a prison break that took place.
8:53
plays at the beginning of the year that all the while you have a super bowl that's about to take place here in new orleans and then the crime weight looked like it was about to go through the roof but thank god new orleans stayed
9:10
resilient and calm and cool like we always are and it kind of meddled out it meddled out before the summer you know i think it was like mid-spring We kind of mellowed out.
9:23
And we just kept chugging along like we normally do.
9:28
Nothing phases New Orleans.
9:30
We can bounce back from anything.
9:32
And we bounced back yet again in 2025.
9:36
So I want to give a shout out to the city of New Orleans for surviving 2025 after everything told us at the beginning of this year that the world was coming to an end.
9:51
Everything that could have went wrong.
9:53
went wrong,
9:54
but here we are.
9:56
All right,
9:57
so without further ado,
9:59
let's get started.
10:00
get into the third annual goody awards of course i do this every year just started three years ago with it normally i used to do a top 10 list of this that and that but everybody does a top 10 list so i wanted to do it in a fun way in
10:18
a different way than everybody else and so the awards let's do the award show format and i've had fun with it i is actually
10:30
harder this way it's harder this way uh believe it or not but it's still fun to put together every year and i know it's diversive i know that a lot of people probably gonna look at these uh nominees and these categories and like how did you nominate this or how did this person
10:51
win or this movie win and so on and so forth but we have to remember
10:58
it's my list it's my list if you have a better list by all means do your list and it's this is all for good fun it's nothing to argue and fight about uh it's all in good fun and
11:13
so let's begin with our first category of the night and it is best superhero adaptation and these uh this category will cover
11:26
TV as well as movies.
11:28
As far as superhero adaptations,
11:31
the nominees are
11:34
Marvel Zombies,
11:36
Superman,
11:37
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,
11:41
Thunderbolts,
11:42
and
11:43
Daredevil Born Again.
11:46
Those are your five nominees for Best Superhero
11:50
Adaptation of 2025.
11:52
Let me just start off by saying there were quite a few superhero...
11:58
properties to come out in 2025 but shockingly uh out of these nominees only two of them are films now we've had a few superhero movies to come out this year but only two made the cut and that's superman and thunderbolts or the new avengers however whatever you want to call it at this point that
12:22
just goes to show you that there's a lot and there's some
12:26
There were some good adaptations that just didn't make the cut.
12:29
But this is more of a testament on how good of the quality of television has been treating these comic book superhero adaptations lately.
12:40
You know,
12:40
they really have been giving it much love.
12:45
So the winner of best superhero adaptation for 2025 goes to your friendly neighborhood.
12:55
spider-man i had such a good time with that show that show was so fun and it it was literally a comic book coming to life it this animated style that was just ripped from the pages of a comic book i
13:12
felt like a little kid reading a super band not a superman but a spider-man comic book You know,
13:20
it's the way they kind of.
13:24
honored the MCU but went in a different direction by being in a different universe but still holding true to what we've grown to know about Spider-Man in the MCU proper was
13:42
genius in my eyes and I thought it was not only the best superhero adaptation but one of the best shows of the year but it is truly worthy of
13:54
best superhero adaptation of 2025 your friendly neighborhood spider-man now we're doing a lot of best we're doing a lot of best of but
14:11
before we go any further let's let's just get the elephant out they'll dress the elephant in the room and get the worse out the way
14:21
probably should have started with the words but i don't care it wouldn't have mattered where we addressed it it still would have been there it needs to be addressed and these are your nominees for worst movie of 2025 and i will say they there
14:40
were a lot there were a lot this was the hardest category to narrow down that's how bad
14:48
movies are that came out in 2025.
14:51
There were some really,
14:52
really good ones,
14:54
but my God,
14:55
they had so many bad ones.
14:56
I thought it was easy.
15:00
But it wasn't.
15:02
It was really a lot of movies that
15:05
I would not only categorize as the worst of the year,
15:09
that you probably can categorize as one of the worst ever.
15:13
That's how bad these movies are.
15:16
And so here are your nominees for worst movie of 2025.
15:22
The Electric State.
15:24
Hurry Up Tomorrow.
15:27
In the Lost Lands.
15:29
the strangers chapter 2 red sonja war of the worlds and i know what you did last summer my god these movies were horrible and all of all of them have
15:45
a case to win there are no losers here they're all the worst but if i gotta narrow it down to one as being the worst movie of 2025
15:58
Hands down,
16:00
hands down,
16:02
it has to be,
16:04
and it is,
16:05
War of the Worlds.
16:08
The worst movie
16:11
I have ever seen.
16:13
I have never seen a movie so bad.
16:16
It took me three tries to finish this movie.
16:21
It was hard to get through it.
16:23
It was that bad.
16:25
It,
16:26
nothing,
16:27
it was...
16:29
Nothing about this movie screams movie.
16:31
It's just there.
16:34
Now,
16:34
the movie was shot during the pandemic,
16:37
so this is like a five-year-old film that finally got released.
16:42
But the reason it took so long,
16:44
nobody wanted to release the movie.
16:46
It was that bad,
16:48
but Amazon decided to do it,
16:50
and all they did was turn it into an Amazon Prime commercial.
16:56
Amazon Prime.
16:57
Amazon Prime gift card.
16:59
Oh,
17:00
let's use Alexa.
17:02
Let's do all the...
17:03
Everything was Amazon.
17:06
And it was so blatant,
17:08
man.
17:09
I've never seen product placement so blatant in my life.
17:13
Acting so bad in my life.
17:16
Ice Cube.
17:16
I've seen him act.
17:18
I've seen him in Boys in the Hood.
17:21
I've seen him in Three Kings.
17:23
I know he can act.
17:25
I don't know what this was.
17:26
This was such a paycheck movie.
17:29
Everybody involved was horrible.
17:32
The direction was horrible.
17:34
And using that,
17:37
what they call it,
17:38
screen life format,
17:40
where everything is viewed through a screen,
17:42
through a camera,
17:43
you know,
17:44
a webcam or whatever,
17:47
was so bad.
17:49
We're talking War of the Worlds.
17:52
this was horrible man the worst movie of 2025 probably in my lifetime war of the worlds all right we got the worst out the way let's get back to the best let's get to the cream that rises to the top best
18:11
actress of 2025 tough to tough category tough it was tough to narrow it down to five let alone pick a winner
18:22
There were so many phenomenal performances by actresses this year that it was tough.
18:30
But these are the five that got narrowed down,
18:32
in my humble opinion,
18:34
nominees for Best Actress of 2025.
18:38
Elle Fanning for
18:40
Predator's Badlands.
18:42
I know that's going to cause some heads to scratch,
18:44
but she had a phenomenal performance.
18:48
I think she carried that movie no pun intended even though
18:51
She didn't have legs.
18:53
She gave an awesome performance that outshined the Predators.
18:59
I enjoyed her so much.
19:01
I watched that movie for her.
19:02
I watched it twice.
19:04
Or is it three times now?
19:06
Just for her.
19:07
Because she was so good.
19:09
And I'm a Predator friend.
19:11
All I care about is the Predators killing people.
19:14
But her performance captivated me for some strange reason.
19:19
Which earned her this nomination.
19:22
Also nominated in this category,
19:24
Amy Madigan for Weapons.
19:27
Yes,
19:27
man.
19:28
I mean,
19:29
came out of nowhere.
19:30
I mean,
19:31
she hasn't seen Amy Madigan in a film in so long.
19:34
I thought she was retired.
19:36
And came back with a vengeance,
19:38
man,
19:39
in Weapons.
19:41
Rhea Sehorne and
19:43
Puribus, if I'm pronounced,
19:45
I'm pretty sure I'm butchering it.
19:47
But the one television nomination here.
19:51
That show came out of nowhere for me.
19:54
I didn't know anything about it.
19:55
I kept hearing the buzz,
19:56
so I started watching it,
19:57
and it was instantly hooked.
20:00
And she is phenomenal in that show.
20:04
Didn't watch
20:04
Better Call Saul.
20:05
I saw a few episodes with her in it,
20:08
but I wasn't a big watcher like I was with
20:12
Breaking Bad.
20:12
But,
20:13
man,
20:14
she is phenomenal in this show.
20:17
Chase Infinity for one battle after another.
20:22
I think this is her first performance,
20:24
and I cannot wait to see what else she has.
20:27
She held her own.
20:29
against the likes of leonardo dicaprio with sharing the screen with uh sean penn and held her own and she is phenomenal in one battle after another and our final nominee is
20:47
wambi musaku and i'm sorry for butchering her name from sinners she was the heart of that movie
20:58
uh no pun intended if you saw sinners but she she is truly the heart of that film basically the emotional anchor of sinners and man she is awesome she is awesome i've been following her career for a long time and she she rightfully deserves this shine but
21:18
unfortunately in the words of the highlander there can be only one and the best performance by an actress of
21:26
2025 goes to amy madigan for weapons that movie doesn't work without amy madigan about without her character being the way she is and she full-on
21:43
when i mean dove head first into this character that could have came off as cheesy campy ridiculous
21:54
It could have been the dumbest move ever,
21:57
the way this character was kind of written and presented.
22:01
But she gave this character such a chilling,
22:07
frightening,
22:07
I mean,
22:08
one of the most frightening villains in film.
22:11
You've got to put
22:14
Annie, I think the name of the character,
22:16
up there with one of the most chilling villains in film.
22:20
Because,
22:21
my God,
22:21
man.
22:23
She
22:23
took the movie over i'm thinking the movie is one thing and when she pops on screen i'm like what is this silly thing with all this makeup and just from underneath that makeup just chewed up every second of screen that she was on you know i'm super
22:43
impressed and and love the fact that you know
22:47
Even in her later years,
22:49
you know,
22:50
taking some time off and not working as much,
22:53
she still got it.
22:54
You know,
22:55
she proved to everybody that,
22:57
yeah,
22:58
I don't work as much as I used to,
22:59
but
23:00
I'm still here.
23:01
Hard to imagine that this is the same young lady who was Kevin Costner's wife in
23:08
Field of Dreams,
23:09
you know.
23:10
So it's amazing.
23:12
She rightfully deserves this honor.
23:15
Amy Madigan from Weapons.
23:17
wins best actress of 2025 our next category best horror movie of 2025 this was probably the toughest category out of all of them and for the simple fact 2025 had some really good horror films i
23:37
mean as a fan of the genre i you know it gets stale after a while
23:43
You know,
23:44
how many slasher movies can you watch without being bored and not knowing what's going to happen next?
23:50
How many dead people rising from the dead and all this other foolishness?
23:56
You can only do so much with horror.
23:58
And so we've gotten to the point that you've got to kind of reinvent the franchise or not the franchise,
24:04
the genre.
24:04
And 2025 really did that.
24:09
We saw some very unique and.
24:12
interesting horror films that were really really good and man it was hard to narrow it down but we got down to six nominees for best horror movie of 2025 starting off with our first nominee bone lake sinners
24:32
weapons good boy final destination bloodlines and together
24:40
Those are your six nominees for best horror movie of 2025.
24:45
It was hard.
24:46
It was hard.
24:48
I like all of these movies.
24:49
I like some movies that didn't even make this list.
24:52
But these were the six best in my humble opinion.
24:56
But there can only be one.
24:58
And your winner...
25:00
for best horror movie of 2025 good boy good boy was i don't even know how to describe it i thought that this would be just a silly
25:19
horror film from the perspective of a dog okay so they're gonna have the dog talking or something you know you get to hear the dog's thoughts or whatever the case may be
25:29
It's something to push the narrative verbally so the audience can understand and hear what the dog is thinking.
25:36
But it wasn't that.
25:38
It wasn't that at all.
25:39
It was like a dog.
25:40
It was a real dog.
25:42
There was no CGI.
25:44
The dog almost was nominated for Best Actor,
25:47
but I didn't want to go too far with that.
25:51
But the dog was phenomenal.
25:52
The story is phenomenal.
25:55
And my God,
25:56
man,
25:57
this.
25:58
This really touched me.
26:00
This movie touched me.
26:02
Not in a crazy way,
26:03
but it was just emotionally beautiful and sad and tragic at the same time.
26:11
And this dog carried the movie because it was just the dog.
26:15
You're following this dog through this horror movie and you're scared for the dog.
26:23
You know,
26:24
it's terrifying.
26:25
At the same time,
26:26
I was.
26:28
I was just floored by Good Boy,
26:30
and it rightfully earned its spot as the best horror movie of 2025.
26:40
We move on to our next category,
26:42
Best Actor.
26:43
And Best Actor was,
26:45
this one wasn't so tough for me,
26:48
shockingly.
26:49
I knew instantly,
26:51
I knew instantly when I walked away from this movie that this actor was going to win.
26:59
you know even though they had uh other performances that were awesome this year who rightfully get nominated but it was one performance that stood out so much to me and was never topped throughout the year uh
27:14
these are the nominees for best actor in a film for 2025 sean penn in one battle after another oscar isaac and
27:27
Frankenstein,
27:28
Jesse Plemons in
27:31
Bougainvillea,
27:33
Michael B.
27:33
Jordan in Sinners.
27:35
Now,
27:35
you can pick either one,
27:36
Smoke or Stack.
27:37
He did excellent as both.
27:39
Dwayne The Rock Johnson in The Smashing Machines and
27:46
Jonathan Majors in Magazine Dreams.
27:49
Yeah,
27:50
you can still harp on the Jonathan
27:53
Majors hate train,
27:54
but the dude...
27:56
the dude can act his behind off.
27:57
That dude is phenomenal.
27:59
And if you've seen Magazine Dreams,
28:02
that movie is phenomenal,
28:03
and he is phenomenal in it.
28:05
It's sad what happened to his career.
28:07
Whatever he did,
28:09
you know,
28:10
I hope that he's paid the price for it because he deserves to be in front of a camera doing what he does best.
28:19
And Magazine Dreams definitely shows that.
28:24
But he wasn't the winner.
28:27
He wasn't the winner.
28:28
There was a performance that was just that much better than that phenomenal performance.
28:34
All six of these actors gave awesome performances this year.
28:42
But I gotta give it to the one that outshined them all.
28:46
And that is the winner of Best Actor of 2025,
28:51
Sean Penn,
28:53
in one battle.
28:54
after another sean penn it's it's weird sean penn plays the most racist person on god's green earth who so happens to love black women and and
29:13
what made it what made it stick out to me i know people like that i literally i know people like that in their mental
29:25
I don't know.
29:25
It's like they're torn within themselves.
29:30
It's this existential crisis that they go through.
29:34
And it's phenomenal to watch,
29:37
especially for me,
29:38
you know,
29:39
because I know better.
29:41
And I'm looking at them have all this hate,
29:45
but don't have this hate.
29:47
They just hate because that's what they were taught.
29:50
But deep down in their heart.
29:53
They don't feel that way.
29:55
They may feel that way in their mind,
29:56
but their heart tells them different.
29:59
I went through all that to say that Sean Penn's performance is that visual depiction of that.
30:08
And you can see it in his face.
30:11
You can see it in his actions.
30:13
The way he delivers this complex performance of this just bigot.
30:21
human being who is in love with a black woman is phenomenal and something i haven't seen on screen before and i bought it i bought i actually questioned if sean penn was racist you
30:38
know even though i know better i've i've you know i know his his life what i don't know his life but i've followed his career and followed things that he's
30:48
done his activism in certain things that i know he's not like that but it's like my god bro where did you pull this from and the dude was phenomenal in this movie outshined everybody else in the
31:04
movie and we had some phenomenal actor you had leonardo dicaprio you had benicio del toro you uh regina hall it was so many people in this movie that was given just
31:17
Oscar-worthy performances,
31:19
but he just left them in the dust.
31:23
Sean Penn,
31:24
your best actor in 2025.
31:29
Moving on to the small screen here in the nominations for best TV show of 2025.
31:36
Some good television in 2025.
31:40
Television show good that you almost like,
31:43
I don't need to go to the theater to see nothing.
31:46
and i just everything on tv was popping this year i'm shocked on how good of uh tv shows that we got out i mean phenomenal tv shows uh in 2025 our nominees for
32:01
best tv show it welcome to dairy adolescence pluribus the pit your friendly neighborhood spider-man and alien earth
32:16
Six phenomenal shows,
32:18
six difficult choices to pick.
32:21
Well,
32:21
not really.
32:22
Not really.
32:26
The winner was an easy choice because I liked every episode,
32:31
every actor,
32:32
every performance.
32:34
Everything about it was phenomenal.
32:37
The other nominees,
32:38
yes,
32:39
I feel the same way,
32:40
but not as in-depth as I do for the winner.
32:46
I celebrate all six,
32:48
all six of these shows.
32:50
You had a few others that were on my honorable mention that could have been mentioned,
32:56
but just couldn't quite make the cut.
33:00
But like I said,
33:02
this was a phenomenal year in television.
33:05
But we got to pick only one and the winner for best
33:11
TV show of 2025,
33:15
The Pit.
33:16
The Pit,
33:18
you know,
33:18
I never watched ER.
33:22
I never watched that show.
33:25
Well,
33:25
I say never.
33:25
I watched a couple of episodes,
33:27
but I wasn't a viewer,
33:29
you know.
33:30
I wasn't like a big
33:31
ER fan.
33:32
Like,
33:32
oh,
33:32
my God,
33:33
George Clooney.
33:33
No,
33:34
it wasn't none of that.
33:36
I watched it once or twice because either somebody was talking about it or it was nothing else on that night.
33:43
But never followed it.
33:44
Never watched it.
33:45
Grey's Anatomy wasn't into medical dramas like that,
33:49
you know?
33:50
And so this show came along,
33:52
and I don't know why I started watching The Pit.
33:56
I think me and my wife were trying to find something to watch on TV one day,
34:00
and I'm like,
34:01
you know,
34:01
this show started on HBO Max.
34:05
Let's check it out.
34:06
Let me see.
34:07
You know,
34:07
you like Grey's Anatomy and all that,
34:09
so I guess I blame her.
34:11
Let's see how this turns out.
34:13
First episode.
34:14
oh man this is really good i like the pace of it all you know then the second episode my god it's even better than the first episode and as we kept going i started to realize you know because i'm slow i'm
34:32
like wait this is every episode is one hour shift and so we're going like in real time this is like 24 which is one of my favorite shows on
34:42
ever this is like 24 in er had a baby and they popped out the pit and this is exactly what it's real time and you go
34:52
going through this shift with these doctors and these nurses and these patients and how frantic a er is uh at this uh hospital then you have this mad shooting that took took place at this event in there and
35:08
they have to respond in the the chaos that takes place and they gotta hold it together but they're dealing with their own crap you know personally and all it's like this is really and This is real.
35:20
This happens.
35:22
You know,
35:22
this really happens because these doctors are humans,
35:25
too.
35:26
They're not robots.
35:28
And the way the show depict that was phenomenal.
35:32
This was the most realistic show I've ever seen in my life.
35:36
And I've grown to have so much respect for ER doctors,
35:41
for nurses,
35:41
for health care officials.
35:44
This show really did that for me.
35:47
And I always had,
35:48
you know,
35:49
you have general respect for them.
35:51
but
35:51
not like this and this show with uh uh with the actors who i'm blanking on their names but uh they're they all were phenomenal and i love the direction i loved everything about it can't wait for season two which comes out in a couple of weeks uh from what i understand and so we don't have far to wait for season two but season one was
36:16
the best tv show of 2025 the pit
36:22
so without further ado we have arrived at our final and biggest award of the show and it is none other the best movie of 2025 the the the
36:38
creme de la creme here the the the one movie that stood out amongst hundreds of other movies that came out in
36:48
2025
36:50
I mentioned earlier that this year had some stinkers.
36:54
It has some really bad movies to come out in 2025.
36:59
But it was an even balance in my eyes because they also had some really,
37:04
really good movies to come out in this year.
37:08
It started early and it kind of sprinkled throughout the middle towards the end when you normally get these big
37:16
Oscar push movies.
37:18
Not so much at the end.
37:19
But throughout,
37:22
you had some decent ones.
37:23
You had some sneaky good ones that you didn't expect.
37:26
There's a couple of them here on the list,
37:29
some nominees here.
37:31
But throughout,
37:33
I really did enjoy 2025 for the most part when it came to film.
37:38
And so here are your nominees for Best Movie for 2025.
37:44
The Long Walk,
37:46
Sinners.
37:48
Magazine Dreams,
37:50
Bougainvillea,
37:52
F1,
37:54
Weapons,
37:55
One Battle After Another,
37:57
Warfare,
37:59
and K-Pop
38:00
Demon Hunters.
38:02
In a race for quality films this year,
38:07
these nine movies were the best in my humble opinion.
38:12
All nine deserve a round of applause.
38:15
I think
38:16
Every one of these movies are worthy of winning this award.
38:21
I've enjoyed them.
38:23
Rewatchability for all of these are high.
38:27
My surprises out of all of these,
38:30
F1,
38:31
did not expect F1 to be as good as it was.
38:34
Didn't expect
38:36
K-Pop Demon Hunter to be as good as it was.
38:40
Didn't expect
38:42
The Long Walk.
38:43
to be as good as it was i mean this is a movie about walking literally that's the whole movie it did not expect it to be as emotionally uh gripping as it was uh a warfare as
38:59
simple as a premise as it was it was done so well and so realistic i mean all of these movies are for now but once again there can be only one
39:13
And your winner for best movie of 2025,
39:19
Sinners.
39:20
Sinners beat out the rest of the pack.
39:24
Sinners had everything.
39:27
Absolutely everything that you look for going to see a film.
39:33
Beautiful cinematography.
39:36
Great acting.
39:38
Great direction.
39:40
Well written.
39:42
Different.
39:44
uh uh just genre bit uh uh bending you know this is a horror film disguised as a jim crow
39:52
era film disguised as a musical you know disguised as disguised as social commentary it it all melded together and worked perfectly i enjoyed this movie so
40:09
much it was so well done ryan coogler is truly one of the best directors currently working today you put ryan coogler up there with christopher nolan
40:21
uh currently uh denny velenu you you put him up there with him because nothing he's made has been bad matter of fact everything he's made is borderline great and this going back to fruitville station nothing
40:37
the only misfire if you want to count misfire in his filmography is black panther wakanda forever but if you know the backstory on why that movie turned out as messy as it was
40:51
you would understand your lead actor died right before filming your uh you had to rewrite the movie then you covid happened so you're trying to film during covid then the actress your lead actress in the movie she gets covid so you had to readjust there the studio is force feeding these subplots in the movie that you didn't want in the movies but so he had to find a way to make it work the best he can.
41:21
It wasn't a great film.
41:23
It clearly wasn't as good as the first Black Panther,
41:27
but it was watchable.
41:29
He made it work.
41:30
It wasn't bad.
41:31
It could have been a dumpster fire,
41:33
but it wasn't.
41:34
And so he was able to bounce back and diss,
41:37
man.
41:38
Sinners was phenomenal.
41:40
And if you know how Sinners came about,
41:42
it's even more phenomenal because he wanted to make Blade at Marvel.
41:47
Marvel didn't want him to make Blade.
41:49
And so,
41:50
okay,
41:50
no problem.
41:51
So he switched it over and made Sinners.
41:54
And the world is better for it.
41:57
Michael B.
41:57
Jordan in these dual roles was great.
42:00
He,
42:00
I mean,
42:02
he got nominated for a goodie.
42:03
And so he knocked it out the park.
42:07
Haley Stanfield knocked it out the park.
42:10
I mean,
42:11
Delroy Lindo,
42:12
who almost was nominated today,
42:15
he knocked it out the park.
42:17
I just,
42:18
I can't.
42:18
I can't speak on it highly Jack O'Connell or is it Josh O'Connell I forgot
42:25
I loved him as the villain here a villain that was just ferocious but didn't want to be called a clansman you know how bad you know how bad a group of people have to be that a blood sucking vampire got offended by the fact you was he
42:47
was called a clansman
42:48
He got offended by that.
42:51
But anyways,
42:52
I mean,
42:52
this movie was great,
42:53
man.
42:55
I think it's the best of 2025.
42:58
But like I said before,
42:59
all of these nominees,
43:03
if you want to say Weapons was better,
43:06
I'm not going to fight you.
43:07
If you say Begonia was better,
43:09
I'm not going to fight you.
43:10
All of these movies were great.
43:12
All of these movies were great.
43:13
But the one that touched me the most,
43:15
the one I enjoyed the most,
43:16
the one.
43:17
I can see myself re-watching more than the others is
43:22
Sinners, your best movie of 2025.
43:27
And so that is it for this year.
43:30
That's it for 2025,
43:31
ladies and gentlemen.
43:33
I hope that 2025 was great.
43:36
