Episode 106 – Who Watches the Fatmen?

fatguysatthemovies_banner

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.

Films Reviewed this Week: Watchmen.

Episode 105 – Fat Fighters

fatguysatthemovies_banner

On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil suffer through another week of no screenings for the press, even though Neil secretly wants to see the Jonas Brothers concert in the theaters. 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.
