fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: Kevin takes on the silliness of PG-13 horror with one of the worst examples of the bunch since last year’s Poltergeist remake. But before the movie reviews, he responds to some legal news and takes a few jabs at Kevin Smith and his godawful Yoga Hosers trailer. Later, he reviews The Darkness, Money Monster, High-Rise, The Man Who Knew Infinity and The Family Fang. Finally, he rounds out the show with a look at the box office and home cinema selections.

Episode 329 – Research!

Posted on

This Week: It’s another big week in the Magical Studio in the Sky. Hollywood has clobbered Kristin and Kevin with a massive slate of four new movies this week, complete with a challenging screening schedule. Along with talking about We’re the Millers, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, Planes and Elysium, Kevin and Kristin face a deluge of news stories. Topics include asshole venture capitalists who want to allow tweeting and texting during movies, asshole movie stars who blame critics for their failures and asshole movie producers who want to butcher foreign films for the non-existent Midwest foreign films market. Oh, and DVDs.

OSNAP #17: Got You on a Wall

OSNAP: Got You on a Wall
After a drunken night with the Golden Globes, Kevin and Merrill return to The Magical Studio In The Sky to wax poetic on everything from Jodie Foster to why Merrill’s father seems to truly hate him but loves glass splinters. All of this culminates in a hilarious discussion of customer service failure and cable outage nightmares. Oh, snap!

Episode 243 – Getting Chip-Faced

Posted on

This Week: As the holiday movie season swings into gear, Kevin invites Grae Drake from CNN, Movies.com and the Popcorn Mafia into the Magical Studio in the Sky to get chip-faced. They break down the new Sherlock Holmes movie before turning into chipmunks for the second segment. There, they give a squeaky-voiced review of the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie as well as the only non-sequel in wide release, Young Adult. In the infamous middle segment, they look at the Golden Globe-nominated Carnage before Grae totally geeks out over Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. They also talk about sundry things like the weirdest porn Kevin’s seen on the internet, why Muslim women shouldn’t handle a big studded cucumber and how award season is shaping up. It’s a classy show to say the least.

Episode 215 – Chocolate Starfish

Posted on

fatguysatthemovies_banner

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!
