This Week: After months of live-tweeting movies on Saturday nights together, Kevin invites Mel Valentin from eFilmCritic.com and SFStation.com into the Magical Studio in the Sky to dissect films properly. Together, they bemoan the inaccurate name of Screen Gems when they reflect upon not getting a screening of Priest. Then they disagree about films like Bridesmaids and Everything Must Go, with a nod to Hesher. They also answer a listener voicemail from the elusive Steve-Gabe before swerving into a discussion about whether Joss Whedon can handle The Avengers. Finally, they lay down a Fat Guy Five about ass-kicking religious figures in films before handing out some DVD recommendations.
