On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil watch Watchmen and give their opinions about the most anticipated movie of 2009. Joining them in the Magical Virtual Studio in the Sky is Cole Abaius, the resident Watchmen aficionado at FilmSchoolRejects.com. Kevin tries to derail the episode by discussing the falling-in-love failures of The Bachelor and what a lousy president Allison Taylor is on 24, but Neil and Cole bring things back to the Watchmen spotlight because there’s nothing else coming out this week. Finally, Cole stuns everyone by declaring that this weekend will be another winner for Madea at the box office.

The Fat Guys give their response to the Oscars and declare that they aren’t going to talk too much about Watchmen yet, and Kevin has the thick-headedness to say that Matthew Goode plays the Nite Owl. Go figure. They also discuss hot chicks from Scrubs who are also chubby chasers, as well as how effective neck beards are for getting the girls. What did you expect? These guys haven’t seen any movies this week.

On This Week’s Show: Neil finally returns to the Magical Studio in the Sky with stories from the land of milk and honey, otherwise known as the Sundance Film Festival.

They explore topics like Steve Martin filling Peter Sellers’ shoes, why Neil wants to buy Maggie Grace from an international slavery ring and how it seems the best scene this week featuring Dakota Fanning requires her to be drunk. And even though Kevin missed Neil greatly, he refuses to hug him without his shirt on, unlike those swishy pilots from the 80s classic Top Gun.

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.
