This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna place their bets for what will be the biggest movie of 2023. First, they discuss the terms of the bet, and the metrics they’ll use to define “best” (7:14). After that, they play “Boom, Bust, or Bumped” with some upcoming superhero movies, and talk about some pre-trial dismissals (16:39). Later, they each reveal their top three guesses for the biggest movie of 2023 (38:30), before reading some listener submissions and choosing one to be added to the final poll (1:02:31).

Now it’s up to you to decide! What will be the biggest movie of 2023? You can vote for the winner at TheRinger.com, on The Ringer’s Twitter feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find ‘Trial by Content.’ The winner will be announced next week!
