fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: For Christmas this year, Kevin offers a fit of rage at North Korea, Kim Jong-Un, Sony Pictures, and Paramount Pictures. What a bunch of pussies, the lot of them! With a trifle of movie news and the trailer park out of the way, Kevin lays into the North Korean fiasco regarding the film The Interview and why we as a country let a spineless, corporation driven by profit alone dictate our foreign policy. Kevin examines the Sony hacking and how the media and readers became puppets of a foreign dictatorship. Then he lays out the reasons why backing down from empty threats was one of the worst ideas ever. (Spoiler alert: This will not be the last time someone tries this nonsense.) Later in the show, Kevin reviews the new movies, including The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Annie and Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb. Finally, he offers some thoughts on the box office and the DVD Round-Up. Ho! Ho! Holy shit!
