On This Week’s Show: Neil has returned from Park City, but he’s decompressing from his fruitful Sundance trip. So Kristin Dreyer Kramer from NightsAndWeekends.com braved the Ohio snow and ice to make a trip to the Magical Studio in the Sky to join in this week’s fun. Too bad that inclement weather and certain studios’ refusal to screen films for critics resulted in Kevin and Kristin seeing no movies this week. Still, they had plenty to talk about, whether it be the most inappropriately shaped potato in human history or how bored they are with the Oscar nominations. Kristin also promises to get fatter or become a dude before here next guest hosting gig.
Films Reviewed this Week: New in Town, Taken and The Uninvited.

On This Week’s Show: Neil is still schmoozing in Park City for the Sundance Film Festival, so Kevin is holding down the fort with guest host David Medsker from Bullz-eye.com. It’s a lighter week for movies, so in the midst of talking about werewolves, vampires and Brendan Fraser reading (ha! like he reads!), Kevin and David discuss what might happen to sexy tattoos in 40 or 50 years, TV girlfriends and Rhona Mitra’s lumpy knees. And it’s the 100th episode of Fat Guys at the Movies, so you have that to be happy about!
Films Reviewed this Week: Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, Inkheart and Last Chance Harvey.
