Episode 238 – King Kong vs. Dirk Diggler

Kevin Carr — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 22:00:05 +0000

This Week: Inspired by last week’s new movie A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas, Kevin invites Ike from the It’s Mike and Ike podcast into the Magical Studio in the Sky. They start off with no rehearsal, much to the chagrin of Brett Ratner. They take some pot shots at the new movies, including J. Edgar and Immortals, but nothing compares to Ike’s rage-fueled rant about Jack and Jill. Kevin and Ike continue into the highly offensive middle segment where they suggest how to make an Oscar ceremony worth watching. Then they lay down an impromptu Fat Guy Five about the best racist characters in cinema history. Finally, they wrap things up with the DVD Round-Up and send the listeners on their merry way.

Episode 83 – My Best Friend’s Fat Guys

Kevin Carr — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 11:37:42 +0000

Fat Guys at the Movies is the official podcast of Film School Rejects

On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil are recovering from the righteous wind storm that swept through the Midwest… or at least they’re using that as an excuse for not having seen all the movies this week. They unleash their wrath on Lionsgate and the Weinsteins for not screening films, and they give a little love for Sam Jackson and Ricky Gervais because their films were screened. There’s a nod to Stuart Townsend for his film in the indie spotlight (that both Kevin and Neil saw), and Kevin confesses his childhood trauma from Gordon Jump’s guest spot on Diff’rent Strokes. Oh no! Mister Carlson!

Films Reviewed this Week: Lakeview Terrace, Ghost Town, Battle in Seattle, My Best Friend’s Girl and Igor.
