This Week: Kevin and Kristin crawl, exhausted, into the Magical Studio in the Sky. There, they talk about super spies in day care, Rex Reed being an idiot and ideas for the title of the epic Sharknado sequel. They also manage to talk a bit about the new movies of the week, including The Conjuring, Turbo, Red 2 and R.I.P.D.. Later, they examine the bloody list of DVDs and bid the world farewell for another week.

Art is subjective, as is the appreciation for it and the accolades thrust upon it. This is no more evident that during award season each year, in which every film critic, entertainment journalism outfit and average moviegoer throws in their two cents as to what were the best and worst of the previous year.
The Academy Awards are famous for the nomination snubs (such as this year’s snubbing of Ben Affleck and Kathyrn Bigelow for Best Director), but less remembered are the performances that should have won but didn’t. Reasons for this range from the age of the average Academy voter to the sheer politics of the industry.
From the more-than eight decades of the Oscars, here is a look at some people who should have won Best Actor but did not.

They also chat about the box office, respond to a new listerner voice mail (thanks, Chris from Lansing!) and lay down a Fat Guy Five about the most unlikely nominees.

On This Week’s Show: As one big fat guy plans on sneaking into your house in the middle of the night, two other fat guys seek to entertain you as they talk about the new movies of Christmas week. Of course, it’s not hard to be entertaining when you’re looking at drivel such as Little Fockers and Gulliver’s Travels. At least there’s a Coen Brothers movie in the mix with True Grit. Neil only sees the good film this week, and Kevin is so traumatized by Little Fockers that he can’t even make a good stripper joke. Finally, the Fat Guys lay down a Fat Guy Five about the most insane (and only sometimes awesome) Christmas movies out there. Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas from the Magical Studio in the Sky.
