  • CineFights: What is the Best Film of 2025?
    Feb 9 2026

    It's all been leading up to this. As the 2025 cinematic year comes to a close and we officially reflect on the movies that entertained us, bored us, and transformed us, it's time to decide the Best Picture winner once and for all. Last week, One Battle After Another took home the Best Picture award at the first annual Below the Line Podcast Awards. It was a controversial win. The ceremony ended with Jesse officially challenging Dylan to a debate over the best film of 2025. Welcome to the inaugural episode of CineFights for 2026. It's time to settle the debate once and for all in this clash of the titans. What is the best film of 2025? Is it One Battle After Another, or is it Sinners? It's time to find out. Join the Nobodies of Hollywood in a battle of the minds to answer the most important question of last year. We hope you find this conversation entertaining and meaningful.

    Feb 2 2026

    The tuxedos have been rented and the ballots have been handed in. We're taking the Oscars into our own hands with the first annual Below the Line Podcast Awards. From the Worst Picture bloodbath to the populist uprising Jesse has been dreaming of. We're breaking down the winners, the snubs, and why film snobbery was ultimately inevitable. This is the award ceremony Hollywood was too afraid to host. We pull out all of the stops: from the ceremony, red carpet fashion, and an in memoriam -- we do everything we can to bring you the authentic awards show experience. The Nobodies of Hollywood would like to formally welcome you to the first ever Below the Line Podcast Awards. We hope you find this conversation entertaining and meaningful.

  • Is Peacemaker Season 2... A Joke?
    Jan 26 2026

    Season 2 of Peacemaker is bigger, bolder, and a little more comfortable. Maybe a little too comfortable. This week, the Nobodies of Hollywood dive into James Gunn's sophomore season of the titular antihero and discuss whether it embraces its absurd core, or loses its edge and familiarity. Do we need some more Gunn control in the DCU? Let's explore that question together. We hope you find this conversation entertaining and meaningful.

  • One Battle After Another is a Modern Masterpiece
    Dec 15 2025

    This week, the nobodies of Hollywood sit down to break down one of the most critically acclaimed films of the year: Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another. Dylan and Jesse dive deep into the film's heavy and complex political theming, star performances, and inventive filmmaking. They jump into spoilers right off the bat and Dylan makes the case for One Battle After Another being the best film of the year, deeming it an "instant classic." Prepare for a nuanced conversation about the film's merits, rich politics, and how we can all learn from Anderson's film about how to get through hard times. We hope you find this conversation entertaining and meaningful.
