Recorded - 5/26/2025 On Episode 323 of the Almost Sideways Movie Podcast, we review what is supposed to be the final installment in the Mission: Impossible Ethan Hunt saga with The Final Reckoning. Then we deep dive the second, and most forgotten about, installment in the franchise with Mission: Impossible II. Did John Woo ruin the series or make the most unique film in the group?

The actual 5th anniversary of the show flew by without mention which should not come as a surprise, but here we are. This week I'm talking about how I'm all done with the Red Sox, good music and then bad music and about the last 5 years of the show along with the good fortune I've had to talk with some great people. Then it's on to Three Gripes: Capitalism, people who talk on planes and common sense. After five years this show is still mostly awful, but occasionally less so...sadly, today is not one of those occasions! Check it out!
Better late than never...said no one who's ever listened to this crap! This (last) week I'm talking about the great Bill Belichick story and how I never want this to end. Then I'm spending a lot of time on the great city of Pittsburgh, Pearl Jam, the Pirates and lousy bars. Next we're on to FOUR Gripes this week: bad tattoos, racially stereotyping ride share drivers, talking at the urinal and drive by hand washing. It's mostly awful, but now I'm paying to record this trash so you should listen! #TellYourFriends
This week, the boys pull up their dacks, lace up their blunnies, pull over their cardies, eat a bikkie, grab a tinny, and lob in for the Ridgy Didge himself, Baz Luhrmann's first feature film, “Strictly Ballroom”. This isn't any ear bashing- we loved it! It made us three happy little Vegemites. After Jeff gives a quick mini-review of “Mission: Impossible— The Final Reckoning”, our native Aussie and gutless wonder, Dave, knackered from a good hissy at his lappy, guides us through this absolute hooley dooley.

The boys head to Japan this week to discuss Akira Kurosawa's “Yojimbo”. Starring Toshiro Mifune, the film is considered one of the most influential movies of all time. It's so influential that an entire series of westerns ripped it off so good they couldn't be released in the US for years due to threats of lawsuits. Anyway, this film is awesome, but did the boys think it stands up to the other Kurosawa greats? Grab a beer and tune in! Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

- Headlines and GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) joins the show on the heels of the Seahawks schedule release. - Does he see anything in the schedule that the Seahawks might not be happy about? :30- While we may not have many issues with the Seahawks schedule, we do have a couple bones to pick with the NFL schedule! - Should any team have to play on both Thanksgiving and Christmas? - Look out, the Chiefs are getting shoved in your face next season. :45- ABCs of the Mariners - O is for Offense- after a surprising string of offensively proficient games, we are back to averaging about 2.5 runs per game in the last 6 games. Has the offensive luck run out? - P is for Pitching- we now have just 40% of our starting rotation… how concerned are we?
Chock full o' crap! This week I'm starting with a bit of lousy political commentary because I feel like it. Then I'm talking baseball and specifically Aaron Judge, the Red Sox and dead ballplayers. Next I'll actually talk about Karen Read since I disappointed so many people last week, but this may not be much better! A couple of voicemails; one on Sirius XM while shaming your wife and another on Backlash & WWE. Wrap it up with Three Gripes: millennials, voice texts and scams. As always, it's mostly garbage, but you should absolutely tune in! And then #TellYourFriends
After Dave treats us to a “Thunderbolts*” mini-review and John discusses “The Accountant 2”, the boys dive into the year 1934 to discuss “The Thin Man”, a film so successful and unique it spawned FIVE sequels and made a dog one of the most famous dogs in cinema history. Written by a husband-and-wife team, “The Thin Man” is a detective “pseudo-comedy” whodunit with tension, laughs, fun, mystery, and intrigue, all done by some stellar characters.

In this episode, Trevor and Paul are joined by Chris Via of Leaf by Leaf to celebrate the experience of reading big books. From the books that once intimidated us to the ones we now can't imagine our overburdened shelves without, we dive into what makes a book feel "big." Along the way, we share personal stories, favorite strategies for tackling doorstoppers, the books that stretched us as readers, and reflect on why some big books stay with us for life. Whether you're a lifelong lover of big books or someone who's still building up your wrist strength, this is an episode for you.We'd love to hear from you, too—what are your favorite big books? Which ones are still looming on your to-be-read pile, daring you to pick them up?

The random year generator spun 2010, a repeat for us (The Social Network, Incendies), so we break down the film year, the news year, and dive into a conversation about this psychological thriller that hit three artists- two of whom once took dance classes…- close to home!

Back after an unintended respite with far too much nonsense to talk about. I open with the Pope and how I find the word Pope to be funny for some unknown reason. Moving on to a huge WrestleMania review, a brief Masters review and a bit on Augusta National, over 50 women's soccer, and the NFL Draft. Then it's 4 awesome voicemails - 617-804-1557 - covering far too much before wrapping up with a segment on advertising. Finish up with Three Gripes: Action Figure AI, more AI & conspiracy theories. It's a long episode and no, you may not skip any of it! Enjoy the ride and be sure to Tell Your Friends!

What happens when a writer turns silence, fear, grief—and love?—into novels that are barely a couple hundred pages but echo for days? Whether it's love withheld, misplaced, or mourned, Ørstavik's novels speak to each other through unspoken longing and the disorienting nature of grief—with a quiet, cumulative power that's hard to shake. In this episode, we explore the devastating brilliance of Hanne Ørstavik, the Norwegian author whose emotionally precise novels—Love, The Pastor, Ti Amo, and Stay with Me (neither of us has read The Blue Room, but we have it on order)—have deeply moved and unsettled us.We dig into what makes Ørstavik's emotional landscapes so haunting, and why these books, though spare on the surface, feel endlessly deep. From unspoken longing to the disorienting nature of grief, these novels speak to each other in unexpected and beautiful ways.We'd love to hear your thoughts: Have you read any of Ørstavik's work? Which novel struck you most—or which are you most curious to read?Join the Mookse and the Gripes on DiscordAn easy place to respond to our question above is over on Discord!We're creating a welcoming space for thoughtful, engaging discussions about great novellas—and other books things.

The season has just begun, and the Twins are already fighting to just keep their heads above water. Sweet Lou and Ol Gregg have a cathartic discussion for the first ever Twins On-Daily episode. After an episode of Gripes about pitchers' inability to throw to first base, luck not being the answer for everything, and the hopeless state of the fanbase, they finish on a Sweet Nothing. It was quite touching, if I do say so myself.

Back to interrupt your life with my useless and generally incoherent rambling! Talking about LinkedIn, Patriots free agency, the Yankees, more John Cena, movie trailer reviews and more. Then it's FOUR Gripes this week: Joe Biden, Ed Sheeran, metal chicks and dudes with metal chicks. It's the usual nonsense, but longer! Check it out.
This week, the boys return to 1989 for the second time to discuss “The Abyss”, James Cameron's underwater sci-fi thriller that paved the way for much of T2 and Titanic. Starring Ed Harris, May Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Michael Biehn, the film looks real… because it is! After John kicks things off with a mini-review of “Last Breath”, we set up what was happening in 1989 before diving deep into the film. Jeff had a first-time watch, John and Dave returned to the film. How do they feel it lives on 36 years after its release? Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

In this special detour from our usual birth and pregnancy-focused conversations, we take to the skies for a lighthearted look at the highs (and lows) of air travel. From the cramped seats to the endless security lines, we're unpacking our funniest in-flight gripes and sharing laughs about all those little annoyances that drive us up the cabin walls. It's an unexpected journey for us—quite literally!—but sometimes you've just gotta stray from the norm and have a little fun. Buckle up and join us for a hilarious ride through the realm of tiny toilets, overhead bin battles, and everything in between.
