Posted on

fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: Kevin pulls back the veil on his swanky job as a movie reviewer and gives the audience some keen insight on what happens when a studio doesn’t want an audience to see its movie (cough… cough… No Good Deed). He also talks about how smaller independent companies market their movies that have a proven track record of audiences staying away (cough… cough… Atlas Shrugged: Who Is John Galt?). And then there’s reviews of The Drop, Dolphin Tale 2 and Life After Beth as well. Kevin also talks movie news (mostly superhero stuff), eulogizes Richard Kiel, answers another listener question, looks at new trailers, examines last week’s box office and recommends some DVDs and Blu-rays.

Episode 380 – Two Chewbaccas!

Posted on

fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: Kevin takes aim at a couple things in this episode, namely backwards-minded studios who still think that reviewers only have an audience in the city where they live. But before his rants about that, he talks about some news and moves into the reviews of Guardians of the Galaxy, Get on Up, I Origins, Life Itself and the ambitious but disappointing Boyhood. Kevin also ponders whether dumb action movies with women are still okay for feminism and what you can pick up on DVD and Blu-ray this week.

fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: Kevin gets set to offend the women in the audience for dissing the new trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey. For good measure, he also has a few things to say about the trailer for Dear White People just in case there aren’t enough people mad at him. But first, he explains why he doesn’t go to the San Diego Comic-Con, then talks about some news from the event. Later, he reviews the new movies Hercules, Lucy, And So It Goes and Wish I Was Here before also giving his final thoughts on Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. Then, he’s left with box office and the DVD Round-Up before riding off into the sunset.

Episode 372 – Oh My God on Game of Thrones!

Posted on

fatguysatthemovies2_banner

This Week: Death and pestilence comes to the Magical Studio in the Sky! Fortunately, Kevin has beaten back the pestilence and is now fighting the good fight with a raspy Demi Moore voice and no shirt. But there’s nothing to do about the death, which is inherent in almost all of the movies this week: Edge of Tomorrow, The Fault of Our Stars, Obvious Child, The Sacrament and Anna! It’s only Burt’s Buzz that keeps things light and fluffy. Kevin talks oodles of Star Wars and superhero news before later rattling off some sure-to-be genius box office predictions and the world-famous DVD Round-Up!
