Episode 109 – Fat & Furious

fatguysatthemovies_banner

On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil reunite on the air via the Magical Studio in the Sky after a long spring break during which Kevin visited the FSR southern command in Austin, Texas. Kevin takes another step into the world of the interwebs by getting a FaceBook account for both himself and the show. (Hit Kevin up by searching kevin@filmschoolrejects.com on FaceBook and become a friend of the show!) The Fat Guys bemoan the fact that certain studios have been withholding screenings of their films, while Neil unleashes a fit of rage against the quirky indie comedy Gigantic. He’ll never look at his dear Zooey Deschanel the same again. Finally, Kevin invites Megan Fox to his house to play a stripper in his amateur video production.

Films Reviewed this Week: Fast & Furious, Adventureland and Gigantic.
