Sorry Baby, but it’s One Battle After Another, as we clash and debate our favorite films of 2025! We’re covering obligatory mentions of the biggest films of the year and picking up our Weapons to dunk on some that we’re Regretting You watched. 

Which of these films will we look back on with strong Sentimental Value, 28 Years Later? Which are winners, which are Sinners? 

I’m afraid you’re going to have to Wake Up Dead Man from your Dreams (Sex Love), some might even call that a Resurrection, because You’ve got No Other Choice but to listen and find out.
