On This Week’s Show: Neil and Kevin break out the corsages and tuxedos to get ready for their big Prom Night. They also learn how to be Street Kings from a racist Keanu Reeves and see if they can out-smart Ellen Page and Dennis Quaid from Smart People. Neil admits to wanting to make out with both Keanu Reeves and Michael Bay while Kevin prepares to defend Uwe Boll. It’s a mess of springtime shenanigans with the Fat Guys at the movies.

On This Week’s Show: Neil and Kevin begin to slim down with the Biggest Reject Loser Challenge, but still vow to keep some fat so they don’t have to rename the show. We also serve witty banter over a discussion of love and football for Leatherheads, take a trip to Nim’s Island, freak out over evil weeds in The Ruins (while drooling over Laura Ramsey and her fabulous breasts) and wonder whose bright idea it was to put Mick Jagger’s wrinkly mug on an IMAX screen. Oh, and the uber-cool Gerard Butler chats with Kevin about Neil’s mom’s obsession with… Gerard Butler.
Films Reviewed this Week: Leatherheads, Nim’s Island, The Ruins and Shine a Light.

On This Week’s Show: We get Stop-lossed by a few bad movies, including one that was made under the MTV Films label (Stop-Loss) and another that might as well have been (21). We also take on the wonder that is Simon Pegg in his latest film, Run Fatboy Run, a concept that speaks directly to us — we just aren’t listening. We also run through our April Movie Preview, giving you a good list of the films you should be marking on your calendar — as well, we expose Kevin’s undying love for UFC fighters in bikini bottoms. Oh, and there is another stupid parody movie coming out — we take a moment to explain the pile of suck that is Superhero Movie.
Films Reviewed this Week: Run Fatboy Run, Superhero Movie, Stop-Loss and 21.

On This Week’s Show: This week, Neil Miller is still in Austin, stalking indie rock chicks and Kristen Bell. David Medsker from Bullz-eye.com drops by the Magical Studio in the Sky to keep Kevin company and talk about everything from kind elephants to deranged psychopaths who torment vacationing families. On the show, Kevin and Dave show some love for Horton Hears a Who, show some hatred for Funny Games and show some indifference to Never Back Down. And Neil chimes in with a poorly engineered yet very insightful update from SXSW. Fellow fat guys Brian Gibson from FSR and Peter Sciretta from /Film are Neil’s guests.

On This Week’s Show: This week, Neil Miller escapes the Magical Studio in the Sky, leaving only a swishy sock puppet to take his place.

On the show, Kevin and Kristin talk about well-spoken cavemen in 10,000 B.C., try to muster up some love for Martin Lawrence and rock out to the tunes from The Bank Job. And they make lotsa fun of Neil, who has headed off to Austin for SXSW.

From the Jerry Springer-esque Other Boleyn Girl to Will Ferrell’s ridiculous basketball comedy Semi-Pro, we break down all the weekend’s releases.

We also run through our Oscar reactions, including how we felt about David Bowie winning Best Supporting Actress. And… Diablo Cody naked.

On This Week’s Show: Kevin has left the magical studio in the sky, leaving Neil and guest host David Medsker of Bullz-Eye.com to fend for themselves. Even in his absence though, Kevin cannot escape the quips about his odd love of children’s television programming as the guys review The Spiderwick Chronicles. They also talk Jumper, and decide that they can come up with 8 alternate career opportunities for Hayden Christensen, as acting doesn’t seem to be working out so well. And finally, they run down the long list of news this week, including but not limited to talking about Miley Cyrus. Go figure.

On This Week’s Show: We anticipate the future release of the Miley Cyrus sex tape, but not before celebrating her big win at the box office last week. Speaking of sex tapes, we talk about how Paris Hilton’s The Hottie and the Nottie would be more interesting if it involved her with her clothes off and some guy’s… Nevermind. Kevin trashes yet another Martin Lawrence joint, solidifying his badboy/racist reputation. Other topics are talked about (including Zack Galifinakis joining the “Stop Dane Cook” movement), other shenanigans ensue.
