To wrap up 2025, The Jock and Nerd Podcast looks ahead to what could be one of the biggest movie years ever with our breakdown of the Most Anticipated Movies of 2026. From massive tentpole sequels and superhero epics to director-driven prestige films, horror, animation, and auteur projects from Spielberg, Nolan, Villeneuve, Raimi, Eggers, and more — 2026 is stacked. After running through the entire slate, we deliver our full review of Marty Supreme (2025). We close the show with What Are We Watching?, covering a wide mix of movies, anime, prestige TV, and blockbuster finales. A perfect year-end episode for movie fans.
