It's officially 2026! It's time for our annual tradition of sitting down with Mike DeAngelo to talk about the previous year—that's right, it's the Everything is Awesome 2025 Rewind!

We look back at the entertainment, specifically in film and video games [with a touch of TV and books] that we enjoyed with some rough top ten lists. We also take the time to reflect on what each of us has done creatively this year.

Stay tuned next week when Mike returns for the Everything is Awesome 2026 Look Ahead!
