Welcome to The Racso Awards 2026, hosted by Darren Mangler! 🎬🏆

Do we need another movie awards show? Probably not. But do we need one that’s more fun and a lot less serious than the Academy Awards? Absolutely.

In this special episode, Darren breaks down his picks for the best (and worst) movies of the year, celebrating great performances, hilarious comedies, overlooked films, and even a few movies that made him check his phone to see how much time was left in the theater.

Most importantly, Darren reminds viewers that art is subjective—the movie you love the most is the best movie of the year.

🎬 Best Movie You Didn’t See
🎤 Best Actor
