On This Week’s Show: Kevin is back in the Magical Studio in the Sky for more shenanigans. We also find out just why he was in California, and as suspected, it has something to do with little children. Film School Rejects Associate Editor Brian Gibson joins us as well to talk about the week’s releases as well as help break down all the nominees for Hollywood’s big night, the Oscars. In honor of There Will Be Blood, we also drink your milkshake — and give our predictions for who will take home little golden men on Sunday night.

On This Week’s Show: Kevin has left the magical studio in the sky, leaving Neil and guest host David Medsker of Bullz-Eye.com to fend for themselves. Even in his absence though, Kevin cannot escape the quips about his odd love of children’s television programming as the guys review The Spiderwick Chronicles. They also talk Jumper, and decide that they can come up with 8 alternate career opportunities for Hayden Christensen, as acting doesn’t seem to be working out so well. And finally, they run down the long list of news this week, including but not limited to talking about Miley Cyrus. Go figure.
Films Reviewed this Week: Jumper, The Spiderwick Chronicles, Step Up 2 the Streets and Definitely, Maybe.
