CXXXI: Luca, The Fast & the Furious Deep Dive

 Recorded - 6/20/21

On this episode of the Almost Sideways Movie Podcast, we review the latest release from Pixar to head straight to Disney+ and discuss what kind of trend this is setting.  Then, to get ready for next week's release of F9, and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its release, we deep dive the film that started it all.  Is The Fast & the Furious just an earthbound Star Wars?  Was Paul Walker a good actor?  What ever happened to Leon?  What are the greatest cars in movie history?  For some reason, we ask all these questions and attempt to answer them along the way.  Here are the highlights:
