On This Week’s Show: Neil is huddled down in the Magical Studio in the Sky, surrounded by movie bloggers like he’s in a boat of Cuban refugees, preparing for the blitz of sex and gore of Fantastic Fest. Kevin, meanwhile is jealous. The Fat Guys fight off Klingon attacks and giant wasps while they talk about movies like Fame, Pandorum and Surrogates. Kevin gives some love to comic book iPhone apps and the People of Wal-Mart, while Neil readies his Death Squad to invade Austin’s Alamo Draft House.

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.
Films Reviewed this Week: Julie & Julia, A Perfect Getaway and G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA
