Who won the movie?
The ultimate question: who won the movie? Which actor, director, or contributor came away from this project looking the best? This is typically the final category of each episode, serving as the closing argument for the entire discussion.
"Winning" the movie doesn't necessarily mean giving the best performance – it means benefiting the most from being in it. An actor who parlayed a breakout supporting role into stardom might "win" the movie over the lead. A director who used the film as a career springboard might win over the actors. The category considers the full sweep of what the movie did for everyone involved.
This is one of the original categories present from the very first episode, 'A Few Good Men' (it was only missing from the initial 'Heat' 20-Year Anniversary Mega-Pod episode on the Bill Simmon's podcast, and the very first 5 movies, 'Any Given Sunday' through 'Jerry Maguire', considered the "Sports Movie Hall of Fame").
