This Week: Kevin invites fellow Film School Rejects writer Rob Hunter back to the Magical Studio in the Sky, where they fend off hungry wolves, ex-con jumpers and Katherine Heigl movies. They chat about the new films of hte week, then move into the infamous middle segment where they chew the fat about Sundance. Kevin also blows holes in the “Kevolution” that the lesser Kevin (Smith) claims to have created. They also weigh on on the Oscar nominations and lay down a Fat Guy Five about Man vs. Nature films. Then it’s off to the DVD Round-up, where Rob Hunter declares human trafficking to be “good fun.” Yikes!
In this very special episode: The Idiots ignore the trending topics about the #NFL and #DowntonAbbey to continue their pursuit of all things television – from godawful shows like Work It, Whitney and Are You There, Chelsea? to fantastic shows like Shameless and New Girl. Merrill starts the show off strong by talking about what he likes to do when he’s alone (hint, hint, it’s not watching television), and later Kevin spends most of his time tracking down nekked photos of Emmy Rossum. The Idiots also go through some television news and rip through some DVD recommendations. Kevin also unloads on Joe Paterno… twice.

Kevin says Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close kinda sucks!
This Week: Kevin is awash in love for George Lucas, so he sallies forth to see Red Tails, then an early peek at Haywire. After having a few hopes dashed, he invites Emily Intravia from DeadlyDollsHouse.com and Gleekast to join him to talk about the new movies of the week. They chew the fat about George Lucas hits and misses, Steven Soderbergh’s way of redefining a genre and why British actress Kate Beckinsale sounds like she’s doing a fake British accent in the Underworld movies. They also talk about the Oscar bait flick Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close before going into box office analysis and a special George Lucas Fat Guy Five.
