On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil establish a permanent link in the Virtual Studio in the Sky as Neil sets his roots in sunny Austin, Texas. For the movies this week, Kevin waxes poetic about how awesome it is to watch cheerleader movies while both of them complain about how they never get to see Tyler Perry movies in advance. The Fat Guys offer their Oscar picks, including the potential upsets of the day while Kevin promises drastic consequences if WALL-E doesn’t win Best Animated Film. And finally, they discuss the ramifications of the long-awaited release of Fanboys.
