Later, Kevin reviews the new films 12 Strong, Den of Thieves, Forever My Girl, Mom and Dad and The Leisure Seeker.

Episode 252 – Vomit Bullets and Wee-Wee Fire

Posted on

This Week: It is a dark time for movie reviewers. Being the middle of February, most of the releases are absolute crap, and the studios haven’t screened them. But that doesn’t stop honey-badger reviewer Kevin Carr from pushing ahead with the Fat Guys at the Movies podcast. He invites Ronald Nicholls from BoxOfficeBuz.com to not review the new films this week, including Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (which was not screened for anyone, and that’s the studio that screened Jack and Jill) and This Means War (which suffered from marketing confusion and botched Valentine’s Day screenings). They also tip their hats to The Secret World of Arrietty, which is probably all kinds of awesome, but Disney didn’t screen it much because it is such a limited release. Kevin and Ron also answer a listener question, talk about the box office and list some of the best Studio Ghibli movies in the Fat Guy Five.

Episode 130 – Shenanigans!

Posted on

On This Week’s Show: So here we are with another weekend of movies that Hollywood deemed unfit for critical consumption. Kevin and Neil call shenanigans on the studios this week in the Magical Studio in the Sky. Kevin had the gumption to go see the only press screening of Extract while Neil boycotted it out of principle. Word is that even the few press members who got to see Gamer had a chastity belt of a gag order, and All About Steve was only shown in limited markets. Meh! Such is Labor Day weekend. Go rent a DVD or Blu-ray instead of heading to the cinemas. There’s much more quality stuff out at the video store than in the theaters this week.

Films Reviewed this Week: Extract, Gamer and All About Steve
