Episode 298 – Why Would I Want to Put on Pants?

Posted on

This Week: Kevin and Kristin dust off the debris from the holidays and get back to the grind of work for the first show of 2013. They kick off the year by discussing two award films and one decidedly not-award film: Texas Chainsaw 3D, Promised Land and The Impossible. (You’ll have to guess which one isn’t up for any awards.) They also chat about Kevin’s insane projects for 2013, including his beefcake calender, as well as come up with some new Christmas traditions to start next year. Finally, they wrap things up with some DVD and Blu-ray ideas for gift-card purchases before saying good-bye for another week.

OSNAP #14: Upside-Down with a Twist

Posted on

OSNAP: Upside-Down with a Twist
With the end of the world approaching in just a couple days, do Kevin and Merrill hunker down with their loved ones and enjoy each other’s company for their final days on this earth before Brian the Mayan Winged Serpent rains hellfire down on them? Nope. They get on the horn with each other and talk about utter nonsense. Things seem repetitive with some complaining about Twitter drama and overly critical critics of critics. But Merrill mixes things up with some choice words about the oft-unseen late-90s horror non-classic Jack Frost. Later, Kevin offers some creepy love for porn star Mia Malkova and her amazing flexibility. Kevin also lays down some ire about The Hollywood Reporter’s “Women in Entertainment 2012: Power 100” issue, and it has nothing to do with oral sex. Oh, snap!

Episode 246 – I Need Some Scratch

Posted on

This Week: In the cold wasteland of January, Kevin invites Rudie Obias back into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about the end of 2011 and what to look forward to in 2012. They also look briefly at The Devil Inside, which wasn’t screened for press and represents the only new wide release this week (an honor that is shared with Nicolas Cage’s Season of the Witch from last year). Kevin and Rudie talk about their most anticipated films of 2012 and what they though worked in 2011. They also go blue in the third segment, talking about what they would be willing to do to make money in the new year. They also go over the recent box office numbers and lay down a Fat Guy Five about great exorcist moments in film. Finally, they chat about the new DVDs and Blu-rays for the week before heading back out into that cold wasteland of January films.

Episode 140 – 2012 Pounds

Posted on

fatguysatthemovies_banner

On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil meet up in the Magical Studio in the Sky for an epic show about the end of the world. They gush (sort of) over Roland Emmerich’s movies and dance a jig around how awesome Fantastic Mr. Fox is. And Neil takes to the high seas in support of Pirate Radio while Kevin grumbles after not being offered a press screening. They lay down a Fat Guy Five about Roland Emmerich’s best movies, examine the box office numbers and even read an iTunes review and listen to a listener voice mail, proving that the phone number does work. Save us, John Cusack!

Films Reviewed this Week: 2012, Pirate Radio and Fantastic Mr. Fox
