On This Week’s Show: We get Stop-lossed by a few bad movies, including one that was made under the MTV Films label (Stop-Loss) and another that might as well have been (21). We also take on the wonder that is Simon Pegg in his latest film, Run Fatboy Run, a concept that speaks directly to us — we just aren’t listening. We also run through our April Movie Preview, giving you a good list of the films you should be marking on your calendar — as well, we expose Kevin’s undying love for UFC fighters in bikini bottoms. Oh, and there is another stupid parody movie coming out — we take a moment to explain the pile of suck that is Superhero Movie.
Films Reviewed this Week: Run Fatboy Run, Superhero Movie, Stop-Loss and 21.

On This Week’s Show: This week, Neil Miller is still in Austin, stalking indie rock chicks and Kristen Bell. David Medsker from Bullz-eye.com drops by the Magical Studio in the Sky to keep Kevin company and talk about everything from kind elephants to deranged psychopaths who torment vacationing families. On the show, Kevin and Dave show some love for Horton Hears a Who, show some hatred for Funny Games and show some indifference to Never Back Down. And Neil chimes in with a poorly engineered yet very insightful update from SXSW. Fellow fat guys Brian Gibson from FSR and Peter Sciretta from /Film are Neil’s guests.
Films Reviewed this Week: Doomsday, Horton Hears a Who, Funny Games and Never Back Down
