On This Week’s Show: The Fat Guys explore varying levels of nudity — from the homoerotic nature of Ray Winstone’s 3D junk to Angelina Jolie’s awesome CGI hotness to the Ten Most Disturbing Nude Scenes in Movie History. That’s right folks, Beowulf, the 3D epic with plenty of skin is finally here. Also this week, Kevin Carr reviews everything and Neil sits there and disagrees unnecessarily. And the Fat Guys launch a very special caption contest to celebrate the DVD release of ’24’ Season 6. You won’t want to miss it.
Films Reviewed this Week: Beowulf, Love in the Time of Cholera, and Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium.

On This Week’s Show: On this week’s show we return to our standard format, sans guest host. Without the class of our good friend Kristin Dreyer Kramer, we return to our normally scheduled, highly offensive program, including at least one “Kevin Carr is a racist” moment. We also take a look at the movies of the weekend, some good and some very bad, run down our list of the “Top 10 Christmas Movies that Sucked Ass” (we’re looking at you Fred Claus) and we rap about all things entertainment news.
Films Reviewed this Week: Fred Claus, No Country for Old Men, P2 and Lions for Lambs.
