It’s time for the Second Annual Movie On Uppies™ ... the awards show Hollywood is still pretending not to care about.

Adam and Alfie are handing out the most prestigious honours in cinema, sitting comfortably somewhere between the Oscars and the carpark out the back. The lads break down our personal Best Films of 2025, plus awards for Best Score, Biggest Surprise, Biggest Disappointment, Best Actress, Best Actor, and Worst Film of the Year!

The boys also reveal the audiences favourite Film and which films released in 2025 you champion. And as tradition demands, we wrap things up with an email from friend of the show Josh. Roll out that red carpet.

'Retirement Plan' is a genius 7-minute, animated short film, now Oscar-shortlisted! The director, John Kelly, was kind enough to speak to Adam & Alfie this week about the film, the anxiety attack that inspired it, how he got Domhnall Gleeson involved and the Irish knack for profound storytelling. @johnkelly_jnr @retirementplan_film

In the UK/Europe, you can watch 'Retirement Plan' on Disney+ and in the US/Canada, you can find the short on YouTube.

This week, the lads absolutely rave about Timmy and his latest Oscar-worthy performance in 'Marty Supreme' Josh Safdie knocks it out the park again, starring Timothee Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow and Tyler the Creator.

Alfie reviews the slightly lacklustre finale of Stranger Things. And finally Adam tackles the based-on-a-true-story Neil Diamond *tribute band* biopic, and the new Jack Black and Paul Rudd 'Anaconda' reboot.
