The success of a film often depends on its ending. Imagine if The Shawshank Redemption didn't end with Andy Dufresne escaping Shawshank Prison and sailing away with Red. Or imagine if the original Planet of the Apes movie didn't end in such a shocking fashion with Charton Heston discovering he's actually been on earth all along.

For the first time in a year, I talked film with someone else on the podcast. My guest today is Jacob Meeks, one of my oldest friends and fellow movie lover, and we discussed an impossible topic: our five favorite movie endings of all time.

Our lists contain films from some of the most talented filmmakers of all time - Christopher Nolan, Alfred Hitchcock, David Fincher, John Carpenter, and so many more.

A big thanks to Chasing Dreams for "Magic Sky", the intro and outro music for this podcast. You can find a link to all of his work on Soundcloud and Youtube.

There were lots of gems in 2017, but still plenty of movies that disappointed me or that I thought were just flat out terrible. Tweet at me @barabbaspodcast and let me know what films you thought were not so great this year!

2017 was a great year for film and here's hoping 2018 is even better! You can probably tell but I was a bit sick while recording this episode, so my apologies for how annoying my voice sounds.

The intro and outro song is called "Magic Sky" and it comes from the band Chasing Dreams.

Thank you all for listening to this podcast, for supporting me, and encouraging me throughout the last year. I know my platform is small, but I really do think we're creating something special here. Let's continue cultivating that in the coming year. Cheers, everyone!

Wonder is a beautiful film with a big heart. It reminds us of something familiar; something we've all been taught, yet does so in a newly profound way: choose kind. I loved the movie and 100% recommend it.

As always, be sure to listen to Data Rebel! They created the intro and outro music for this podcast and I love their work.

In honor of The Last Jedi, stay tuned for my SPOILER review of The Force Awakens! Cheers, everyone!

Justice League is far from perfect, but still a fun film and overall solid CBM. It's a step in the right direction for DC and Warner Bros and has me excited for Aquaman and the coming DC lineup. Thank you for listening to my review of the movie! If you enjoy this podcast, consider subscribing and leaving a review on iTunes!

As always, a big thank you to Data Rebel for the intro and outro music for this podcast. Stay tuned for a coming episode on Christianity and Horror movies and how I think those two worlds connect.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I love horror films and can't stand the misconceptions surrounding the genre. I hope you take the time to watch some of these films and enjoy them as much as I do. Cheers, friends!

Thank you, as always, to Data Rebel for their intro and outro song, "Think of View". You can find more of their work here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOC0gA_Bv6JjHfGqb4gKLVw
