They also chat about whether Avatar will ever lose steam and which movies from 2009 they liked the most. Boo-yah!

On This Week’s Show: Kevin throws some hatred Neil’s way for being one of the few critics in the country to be allowed to see G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA. They put their differences aside for a brief moment to discuss the alien holocaust movie known as Julie & Julia. Then the claws come out as the Fat Guys have a smackdown about whether A Perfect Getaway sucks or rocks. Then, in honor of films like G.I. Joe and Transformers 2, they throw down a Fat Guy Five about movies that aren’t great but they loved as kids.

On This Week’s Show: Neil and Kevin wage war on the machines… and McG with some scathing analysis of Terminator: Salvation. Then they move onto the movies that Neil hasn’t seen: Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian and Dance Flick. They also give some love for DVDs, tease the audience with an upcoming interview with William Sanderson from HBO’s True Blood and lay out a Fat Guy Five – sequels that should have never been made!
