Episode 310 – An Armenian Paris Hilton with a Big Butt

Posted on

This Week: Kevin tries to claim credit for his box office predictions, but Kristin quickly becomes hip to his jive-turkey plan. Soon, Kevin moves on to analyze the similarities between Michael Bay movies and the Twilight franchise, suggesting that if one type is dangerous and offensive, the other is as well. Eventually, they move on to reviewing the new films out there (or rather reviewing the one film they actually had a chance to see). They stick it to G.I. Joe: Retaliation and then show some relief for not having to sit through the new films from Stephenie Meyer and Tyler Perry. Kevin takes the opportunity to offend people with a statement of sacrilege before prattling on about his spring break Trekathon. Meanwhile, Kristin hangs her head in shame for her co-host.

Episode 251 – As Good As Part One, But With Boobs

Posted on

This Week: Kevin is as giddy as a school girl with the anticipation of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace in 3D. So much so, he paints his face like Darth Maul and invites Michael Neel, director of The Drive-In Horrorshow to join him in the Magical Studio in the Sky. Together they bemoan the presence of Channing Tatum in films today as well as wonder if Ryan Reynolds can hold up against Denzel Washington in an action movie. They also chat about The Rock’s latest family adventure film, then head into the middle segment to talk about box office and answer a listener email. They also chat about Michael’s anthology horror flick and lay down a Fat Guy Five about absolute crap films that they love. Then it’s the DVD Rundown and a big good-bye for the week.
