Episode 54 – Get the Funk Outta Here

Posted on

On This Week’s Show: We are without guest, but not without some things to say. From the Jerry Springer-esque Other Boleyn Girl to Will Ferrell’s ridiculous basketball comedy Semi-Pro, we break down all the weekend’s releases. We also stray from talking about Miley Cyrus, but somehow find a way to be offensive. Look out Barack Obama, we are coming for you! We also run through our Oscar reactions, including how we felt about David Bowie winning Best Supporting Actress. And… Diablo Cody naked.

Films Reviewed this Week: The Other Boleyn Girl, Diary of the Dead, Penelope and Semi-Pro.

Posted on

On This Week’s Show: Kevin has left the magical studio in the sky, leaving Neil and guest host David Medsker of Bullz-Eye.com to fend for themselves. Even in his absence though, Kevin cannot escape the quips about his odd love of children’s television programming as the guys review The Spiderwick Chronicles. They also talk Jumper, and decide that they can come up with 8 alternate career opportunities for Hayden Christensen, as acting doesn’t seem to be working out so well. And finally, they run down the long list of news this week, including but not limited to talking about Miley Cyrus. Go figure.

Posted on

Kevin trashes yet another Martin Lawrence joint, solidifying his badboy/racist reputation. Other topics are talked about (including Zack Galifinakis joining the “Stop Dane Cook” movement), other shenanigans ensue.
