Episode  |  May 31st, 2020  |  31 mins 51 secs

Which is the better trilogy, Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight, or Night at the Museum?! Spoiler: it’s the former, but NATM (not to be confused with MOTS) was a fun review. Can a wax mannequin become a real boy? Is Ben Stiller the best actor for this role? How can Dick Van Dyke still dance like that?!

Cats (2019)

Episode  |  May 3rd, 2020  |  43 mins 58 secs

Did T.S. Eliot ever intend his poems about cats to become a fantastical movie with Judi Dench becoming a CG cat wearing another cat and singing the world “Jellicle” 1,000 times? Probably not. But it happened anyway! And it is our duty at MOTS to review preposterous movies like the 2019 musical-movie, CATS!

Episode  |  April 5th, 2020  |  30 mins 46 secs

Wait a minute. Am I in the right place? I thought this was Movies on The Side? Yeah, you’re right, but for this episode (and maybe some future ones), we’re becoming TOTS (TV on the Side) so we can talk about The Good Place!

Episode  |  March 22nd, 2020  |  26 mins 59 secs

Need a pick me up after a week of quarantine?? How about a movie about Hitler? I mean, it’s satire, but still...Hitler. Anyway, it may not be the funniest (mostest funny?) episode, but we go pretty deep. Plus, Jojo Rabbit won an Oscar for a reason. Enjoy! And we’ll see you for episode 100!!
