Episode 249 – Blowing Holes in These Bastards’ Crotches

Posted on

This Week: Kevin invites fellow Film School Rejects writer Rob Hunter back to the Magical Studio in the Sky, where they fend off hungry wolves, ex-con jumpers and Katherine Heigl movies. They chat about the new films of hte week, then move into the infamous middle segment where they chew the fat about Sundance. Kevin also blows holes in the “Kevolution” that the lesser Kevin (Smith) claims to have created. They also weigh on on the Oscar nominations and lay down a Fat Guy Five about Man vs. Nature films. Then it’s off to the DVD Round-up, where Rob Hunter declares human trafficking to be “good fun.” Yikes!

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 48

Posted on

In this very special episode: The Idiots ring in the new year by pushing through the January slump. They share their holiday stories – from Merrill’s very traditional Jewish-Japanese sushi sandwich to Kevin’s undying love for roast pork and sour kraut. Kevin gets called out on his RottenTomatoes reviews while Merrill reports on his anthropological studies of Long Island high school girls coordinating the pumping of overpriced gas. Later, the Idiots talk TV news (which seems heavily weighted towards An American Horror Story) and later chat about what they watched. Then it’s on to DVD suggestions and Idiot Recommendations before signing off for another two weeks.

Episode 205 – Doctor of Extreme Lactation

Posted on

fatguysatthemovies_banner

This Week: Kevin was feeling a bit under the weather, so he called in Dr. Cole Abaius from Film School Rejects and Reject Radio to make a house call to the Magical Studio in the Sky. While there, Dr. Abaius stuck around to talk about the latest movies, extreme female lactation, full-grown live human births, The Mountains of Madness, Red State and why box office pundits are like political scientists. There’s an alarmingly cogent disucssion of Hollywood trends and box office, but Kevin makes sure to derail it all with a quip about Drew Barrymore. After a brief Fat Guy Five, the good Doctor and his chubby sidekick lay down some DVD and Blu-ray reviews. Hoo-rah!
