This Week: Kevin and Kristin check out the big releases for the 4th of July weekend (including Despicable Me 2 and The Lone Ranger), and they also give nods to smaller movies for the week (including Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain and Best Friends Forever). They also talk about how feminism relates to The Heat, as well as some news about Pixar sequels. There’s also some talk about box office winners, losers and predictions (which includes movie totals in the trillions of dollars… trillions, I tell you!). Finally, there’s some DVD and Blu-ray release. And when we say “some,” we really mean just a few.

On May 20, Fat Guy Kevin Carr rolled into the FOX 28 studios in Columbus, Ohio for a weekly movie review segment. This week, he talked about Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Bridesmaids.
Check out Kevin’s TV appearance here:
This Week: Kevin brings a new guest to the Magical Studio in the Sky… Freddy Morris from Night of the Living Pocast. They put on some bandanas and each grab a cutlass to talk about the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie as well as give a retrospective of the first three films. Freddy gives the lowdown on some bizarre horror films while Kevin explains the notorious origins of his Words With Friends screen name. Then, after a barrage of predictably off-color jokes about Jodie Foster’s Beaver, they sandwich in a slice of love for Disney between even more off-color discussions of feces and pornography. It’s typical Fat Guys banter, which ends with some DVD recommendations. Arrrrrgh!
