On Episode 255 of the Almost Sideways Movie Podcast, we discuss what we think will happen this week when Oscar nominations are announced. Whose predictions will be closest to correct? Then, we kick off our 2024 series of deep dives with a classic Cager from 20 years ago: National Treasure. Does it hold up? Is there anyone better than Sean Bean at playing a blonde villain? Did this start the current era of Cage we live in now? We discuss!
