For this episode, Elric and Brian return to their annual tradition of talking about some of their favorite films they saw for the first time this year. Some New categories have been added though so they talk about 5 films that they have already discussed on previous episodes, one discovery from a Calendar episode and one re-discovery as well as their 5 picks each.

Yeah, I feel like not a bear, because we don't ever get to hibernate, but some, like, I don't know, whatever creature stores all their stuff and saves some goodies for the end. |
