2024’s viewer votes delivered a mix of cult classics and recent releases – everything from Anaconda to The Bodyguard and the full Harry Potter anthology to the John Wick trilogy.

2025’s list of choices runs to 123 films, from 1984’s Gremlins to 2024’s Gladiator  II, via hit films including Bad Boys: Ride or Die; Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom; Along Came Polly; Sleepless in Seattle; Groundhog Day and The Matrix trilogy – something for everyone!

“This isn’t just about catching your favourite movies – it’s about seeing your own choices shine on the big screen,” explains Waldimar Pelser, Director of Premium Channels at MultiChoice Group.

Last year, viewers duked it out online to garner support for their favourites – and the battle is set to be even more fierce this year!

“We want to know all about your love for films, so let’s hear your views across the DStv social media platforms with the #FanFavouritesFestival,” says Waldimar.
