Episode notes

It’s the final episode of 2022! We start out with our annual MAXI AWARDS, and then move on to top 10 lists from each host. No matter what the haters say, it was a year of great movies — there’s only one film that appears on all three lists, and only three repeats in all. That’s a lot of best movies! Plus, we’ll close things out by looking forward to some of next year’s titles.
