Welcome to The B-Side! Here we sometimes talk about movie stars! We sometimes talk about movie directors! Today, we talk about both! Specifically, the B-Sides of the Mission: Impossible franchise. It's just Conor and I today folks, waxing poetic on Tom Cruise's legendary franchise and the B-Sides that we were inspired to discuss. We've chosen one for each of the Mission movies. It's also July 3rd on the day this episode is published, so happy 63rd birthday Tom Cruise! For the first Mission: Impossible, we speak on The Avengers from 1998. An adaptation of the popular British television series from the ‘60s, director Jeremiah S. Chechik's film was dismantled in post-production, slashed to ribbons following bad test screenings. The final product runs well under ninety minutes and is hard to understand. It sits on the other end of blockbusters in the ‘90s adapted from hit televisions from yesteryear. We also discuss the last five films Sean Connery made (animated film Sir Billi not included), as well as the ones he turned down. For Mission: Impossible II, we chose another John Woo American motion picture: Paycheck, starring Ben Affleck and The Avengers star Uma Thurman. This is a true B-Side, and the beginning of Affleck's now-infamous lost half-decade as a fledgling movie star. For Mission: Impossible III, we return to television inspiration. In honor of director J.J. Abrams, Conor and I go long on No Man's Land, one of the first produced screenwriting credits of Dick Wolf, who would go on to create the, ahem, Law & Order universe of shows. This Charlie Sheen/ D.B Sweeney vehicle walked so Point Break and The Fast and the Furious could run. There's chatter about David Ayer, that scene from Fire in the Sky, and how Charlie Sheen is always better when he plays the villain. For Ghost Protocol, we debate the Brad Bird B-Side Tomorrowland. We discuss libertarianism (for like two minutes) and the misbegotten message of the George Clooney blockbuster. For Rogue Nation we honor the Hitchcock homage of the opening and discuss one of Hitch's most underrated films: Topaz. Truly a can't-miss picture, which spurns a talk about the ideal Hitchcock leading man. For Fallout, there's Michael Mann's Blackhat. We appreciate the still underseen hacker epic, and make the claim that Chris Hemsworth is the best movie star of the original Avengers (Marvel this time, not British) not named Robert Downey Jr. For Dead Reckoning Part 1, Conor goes long on Hayao Miyazaki's Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro, from the little yellow car to the action to the animation. And, finally, for The Final Reckoning, we celebrate John Sturges' Ice Station Zebra. The second act of the final film in the series is a reimagining of sorts of the 1968 submarine epic, with way more stunts and underwater photography. There's also mention of the Billy Crystal 1997 Oscars opening, this lovely promo for the Albert Brooks movie Mother (ok it's not mentioned I just love it), and the Oliver Stone episode of the Light the Fuse podcast.

In this episode, I sat down with my good friend and life coach to the stars, Tim Storey, to dive deep into the concept of The Miracle Mentality — the mindset shift that separates ordinary people from extraordinary entrepreneurs. We talked about what it really means to think big, create uncommon plans, and build the kind of resilience it takes to win in business and life. Tim shared powerful stories from working with legends like Magic Johnson, Oprah, and Robert Downey Jr., and we broke down how success isn't about talent — it's about your mindset, your partnerships, and your ability to persist through resistance. If you've ever felt called to something greater, this conversation will remind you that you're not meant to be regular — you're meant to think, act, and live at an extraordinary level. -- About Tim Storey: Tim Storey is an acclaimed author, speaker, and life coach to the stars.

Fran and Babs from Over/underrated podcast return to Flixwatcher to review Fran's choice Chef. Chef (2014) is a comedy drama road trip film, written, directed and starring Jon (Iron Man) Favreau. Also starring Sofía Vergara, John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Oliver Platt, Bobby Cannavale, Amy Sedaris, Emjay Anthony, and Dustin Hoffman, along with Robert Downey Jr. Miami Chef Carl Casper is the head chef at a popular LA restaurant but clashes with the restaurant owner over the menu. When he receives a negative food review from a prestigious food critic and blogger Ramsey Michel he unintentionally starts a Twitter (hello 2014!) spat. After a failed attempt to serve innovative cuisine to Michel and redeem his status, Casper quits and decides to take his food on the road in a food truck and drag his son along for the ride. Chef is a charming and easy going film, even if it is occasionally a vehicle for Favreau's ego. If you enjoy food and hold nostalgia for a time when Twitter was a fun social media platform then Chef is the film for you. Chef scores highly across all categories apart from repeat viewing to give an overall rating of 3.70.

In this episode, Stuart and Jacob tackle the highs and lows of the "Fantastic Four" franchise, diving deep into the original 2005 film and its disastrous 2015 reboot. They discuss the charm and campiness of '05, from Chris Evans' great performance as Human Torch to the surprisingly decent practical effects that *mostly* hold up today (some REALLY don't). But they don't shy away from the cringe-worthy moments either, and there are a ton! How old is Michael Chiklis's "Thing" supposed to be in relation to the rest of them? And how badly do the film's writers just want Jessica Alba to be showing skin at all times? They wouldn't get their chance to go all the way there until the sequel! And don't forget the troubled production and mess of a self-serious feature that the 2015 movie turned out to be. Yikes!Also featured in this episode are Stuart's inexplicable experience with 2006's "A Good Year", Jacob's massive 2025 theater crawl, Robert Downey Jr. as the new Victor von Doom, and discussions on the potential for lesser-known Marvel and DC characters to get their time in the spotlight.

Sergio Perera is a chef & nutrition expert. Having trained as a professional chef in some of Spain's most respected restaurants and then training in Japan, a serendipitous moment saw Sergio become the go to private chef to Hollywood actors (such as Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Jr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Chris Hemsworth), athletes, royalty and politicians. Growing up in Spain he was naturally an advocate for the healthy Mediterranean diet, but it was working with actors which prompted him to study and learn more about nutrition and during his time with Chris Hemsworth he helped prepare him for the role Thor, optimising his nutrition to support his exercise and muscle building regime. He was an integral part of the successful training app known as CENTR by Chris Hemsworth, writing recipes, diet programs and meditations, offering subscribers a holistic wellness approach. Sergio has an international upbringing, born in Spain to a Mexican/American and Spanish Parents and growing up on a US Airforce base, has given Sergio a unique perspective on food and culture. Sergio's love for food and cooking began in his Grandfather's kitchen where he learnt the traditional cuisine of the Aragon region. At the age of 18, he set off to expand his repertoire of Spanish cuisine by training at some of the world's most prestigious restaurants such as ARZAK, Mugaritz and with Albert Adria at the iconic el Bulli restaurant in Roses, Spain. His curiosity and passion for culture eventually lead him to Kyoto, Japan where he was introduced to Kaiseki which is an exquisite form of dining that moves elegantly and poetically with the seasons.  Sergio has used his culinary and artistic experience to create beautiful and inspirational images for food books, magazines and film productions. He is currently the brand ambassador for Winning Appliances, working alongside John Winning's team on numerous culinary and creative projects. The most recent has been the opening of ORA Japanese dining and bar in Sydney's Waterloo. Always eager to embrace new opportunities, Sergio welcomes the chance to work with clients—whether they are actors preparing for a film, high-profile individuals seeking an exclusive private dinner, or those planning a special event. He has also trained numerous chefs in becoming the ultimate private chef/nutritionist for high profile families and individuals and has been creating a small team of elite chefs throughout Australia. He actively participates in restaurant consultations across Australia, Europe, and the U.S., ensuring that each culinary experience is tailored to meet the unique needs of his clients. We chat about his life changing time in Japan, intuition, mindfulness, living in his car, creativity and food, flow, Molecular gastronomy and working with the masters, the new chef, vulnerability, moving to Australia and working with Chris Hemsworth, love of music, fear, and of course food plus plenty more!

In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, we're breaking down the 1986 comedy Back to School, where Rodney Dangerfield plays a loud, lovable millionaire who enrolls in college to reconnect with his son and shakes up the entire campus in the process. Joined by guest Thea Wayburn from BRIC Architecture, host Kevin Stoller and co-host Carla Cummins take a deeper look at how the film portrays higher education, student life, and the meaning of "fitting in." Part of our ongoing series dissecting school-related movies, we explore what this over-the-top comedy reveals (intentionally or not) about learning environments, relationships, and how schools support, or fail to support, belonging and growth.   Takeaways: Rodney Dangerfield's character may be unconventional, but his experience highlights the importance of creating inclusive environments where students of all backgrounds feel like they belong - something schools and universities are still working to get right today. While Back to School leans into comedy, it also touches on deeper issues like academic elitism, outdated teaching methods, and the value of real-world experience, sparking a conversation about what learning should look like in modern education. The movie challenges the idea that there's only one “right” way to succeed in education. We discuss how schools can better support alternative learners and value life experience alongside academic achievement.     About Thea Wayburn From finishes to space planning and furniture selection, Thea collaborates with project team members, consultants, district staff, and stakeholders to develop interior design solutions that enhance their school's design and align with the district's educational goals. Thea balances design expertise with end user advocacy to facilitate focus group sessions and synthesize feedback, creating spaces that reflect a learning community's unique identity.   Learn More About Thea Wayburn: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thea-wayburn-9b3a16256/   Learn More About Pfluger Architects: Website: https://www.bric-arch.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bric.arch Twitter: https://x.com/bric_arch Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bric_arch/       Connect with host, Kevin Stoller: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinstoller/   Connect with co-host, Carla Cummins: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carla-cummins-01449659/   Learn More About Kay-Twelve: Website: https://kay-twelve.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kay-twelve-com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kay_twelve/       Episode 235 of the Better Learning Podcast Kevin Stoller is the host of the Better Learning Podcast and Co-Founder of Kay-Twelve, a national leader for educational furniture.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture episode #209 – dé meest nerdy podcast in de multiverse. Deze week duiken we diep in Andor seizoen 2, dat traag begint maar uiteindelijk keihard levert. We bespreken wat deze serie zo bijzonder maakt en waarom Star Wars hier de spijker op z'n kop slaat. Verder hebben we het over Tom Cruise, die tijdens Cannes niets loslaat over de toekomst van Mission: Impossible, en laat Scarlett Johansson haar frustratie blijken over het Oscar-succes dat Avengers: Endgame nooit kreeg. Zoals altijd: hot takes, nostalgie én veel te veel meningen.Andor Season 2 Review: "Het wachten waard"Het tweede seizoen van Andor begint stroef, maar weet gaandeweg indrukwekkend te verrassen. Vooral vanaf aflevering 7 komt de serie echt op gang – met afleveringen 8 t/m 12 als absoluut hoogtepunt. De opbouw is traag, maar loont: plotlijnen vallen op hun plek, personages krijgen diepgang en de cinematografie is van hoog niveau. In deze aflevering van Nerd Culture duiken we diep in waarom Andor misschien wel de beste Star Wars-serie tot nu toe is – ondanks die moeizame start.Tom Cruise houdt z'n lippen stijf op elkaar over Mission Impossible's toekomstTijdens een masterclass op het filmfestival van Cannes lieten Tom Cruise en regisseur Christopher McQuarrie weinig los over de toekomst van Mission: Impossible, ondanks geruchten dat The Final Reckoning Ethan Hunts laatste missie zou zijn. Cruise benadrukte vooral dat het publiek de film gewoon moet ervaren en genieten. Het duo sprak verder over hun creatieve samenwerking, hun liefde voor ouderwets filmmaken en het belang van de bioscoopervaring, waarbij McQuarrie streamingplatforms bekritiseerde. Uiteraard kwamen ook stunts ter sprake, met Cruise die wederom zijn grenzen verlegt. Of dit echt het einde is? Cruise ontwijkt het antwoord – maar de rit wordt in elk geval spectaculair.Onbegrijpelijk dat Avengers: Endgame geen Oscar heeft gewonnenScarlett Johansson uit in een interview met Vanity Fair haar frustratie over het feit dat Avengers: Endgame geen Oscar-nominatie kreeg, ondanks het wereldwijde succes en de emotionele impact van de film. Volgens haar is het “een onmogelijke film die wél werkt” en had het epische slotstuk erkenning verdiend. Hoewel Marvel-films technisch vaak genomineerd worden, blijft een nominatie voor Beste Film zeldzaam. Johansson bevestigde daarnaast dat ze definitief klaar is met de MCU, hoezeer ze haar collega's ook mist. Ze vindt dat het verhaal van Black Widow afgerond is – en dat moet volgens haar ook zo blijven, uit respect voor de fans.Timestamps:00:01:00 Andor00:15:26 Bad Friends00:21:49 The Bourne Identity00:27:40 F1 The Movie Trailer00:31:08 Tom Cruise teased mogelijke komst van Top Gun 300:35:47 Tom Cruise wil niet ingaan op de toekomst van Mission Impossible00:39:15 En hij wil dat nieuwe acteurs ook bepaalde film technieken leren/kennen00:47:25 Een eerste blik op Nicolas Cage en Christian Bale in Madden00:49:57 Gears of War film heeft zijn regisseur gevonden00:51:53 Superman Trailer00:56:11 James Gunn past Superman trailer aan na fan feedback00:58:04 Leia cameo in Andor uiteindelijk geschrapt00:59:44 Letterboxd gaat een TV on Demand service lanceren “Video Store” op Cannes01:02:40 Ironheart Trailer01:05:50 Robert Downey Jr op de set van Avengers: Doomsday01:09:06 Scarlett Johansson: “Onbegrijpelijk dat Endgame geen Oscar heeft gewonnen”01:11:10 Scarlett Johansson: “De opnames van Avengers voelde ‘niet cool'”01:13:28 Avengers Doomsday reveal meest bekeken Marvel livestream ooit01:14:17 Disney veel nieuwe subs door Moana 2, Mufasa ennn Daredevil01:17:47 Ballerina Trailer

Join Greg Alba & Aaron Alexander as they trek into the chaotic, meta-Hollywood jungle of Ben Stiller's 2008 action comedy Tropic Thunder. The film follows fading action star Tugg Speedman (Ben Stiller, Meet the Parents, Zoolander) as he joins method actor Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr., Iron Man, Chaplin), drug-addled Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black, School of Rock, King Kong), rap-star turned actor Alpa Chino (Brandon T. Jackson, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters), and amateur soldier Kevin Sandusky (Jay Baruchel, How to Train Your Dragon, Fanboys) on what they think is a war movie—only to be dropped into a real conflict zone. Cody (Danny McBride, Eastbound & Down, Pineapple Express) leads the local militia, while Rick Peck (Matthew McConaughey, Interstellar, Dallas Buyers Club) and producer Damien Cockburn (Bill Hader, Saturday Night Live, Trainwreck) scramble to rescue their “actors.” Don't miss Tom Cruise's scene-stealing cameo as hotheaded studio exec Les Grossman (formerly of Mission: Impossible), plus Nick Nolte's gravel-voiced Four-Leaf Tayback (Warrior, Cape Fear) in a haunting opening narration. Greg 'n Aaron break down every outrageous moment—from the accidental bridge explosion and the animal-attack prank gone wrong to Lazarus's infamous “survive in the bush” training, Grossman's uncensored boardroom dance, and the film's razor-sharp satire of Hollywood egos.

“So, what do you little maniacs want to do first?” As embodied by Kelly LeBrock, Lisa was full of questions, answers, and (for unknown reasons) a variety of witchy powers in the 1985 classic, Weird Science. Written and directed by John Hughes, the movie was a perverted teenage geek's dream: building a woman to spec, controlling her, and using her to gain popularity among the cool kids. But now, nearly 40 years later, what in the name of Gloria Steinem is going on here? Is there any joy to be had in this Anthony Michael Hall of horrors? And just how convincing is Robert Downey Jr as a bully? The Old Roommates float an air biscuit and give it all a revisit through their middle-aged lens.

EPISODE 195: 2008's Box Office Countdown (10–6) – Iron, Espionage, Penguins, and Robots (ft. Robert Yaniz Jr. & DW Lundberg) Episode Description: The countdown continues! Jason is joined by returning guests Robert Yaniz Jr. and DW Lundberg to tackle the back half of 2008's top-grossing movies—where talking animals, malfunctioning robots, and emotionally exhausted spies battled it out for box office supremacy. This batch has it all: MCU beginnings, Pixar magic, Bond reboot blues, and a certain talking lion who just can't catch a break. Films Discussed: Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (6) – The animals are back and... still trying to get home. Quantum of Solace (7) – Bond is brooding, brutal, and possibly bored. Iron Man (8) – The movie that launched a universe (and Robert Downey Jr. into legend). WALL·E (9) – A near-silent ode to love, loneliness, and environmental collapse. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (10) – Slightly darker, slightly edgier, but did anyone notice? IN THIS EPISODE: Was Quantum of Solace an artistic casualty of the 2008 writers' strike? How Iron Man became a bigger gamble than anyone remembers. Why WALL·E might be Pixar's boldest and most bittersweet gamble. Robert, DW, and Jason try to answer the eternal question: "Who actually watched Prince Caspian?" From Armored Avengers to existential robots, the back half of 2008's top 10 is more influential than you might think.
