Second Reel Ep. 11 – ‘Twilight’ for Dummies (and Fanboys)

Posted on

On This Episode: For the past two years, a lot of people have been completely confused by all the Twilight hubbub. There’s intense love for the books and movies by the fans, and there’s been intense hate from many fanboys in the blogosphere. In order to bring balance and civility to the entire issue, Kevin has invited Twilight expert Jen Yamato from Movies.com and FearNet.com to help explain the entire phenomenon to everyone out there. Why is Edward so sexy? Is the series anti-feminist? Can Summit survive after Breaking Dawn? And what effect has the World Cup had on Twilight‘s box office? All these questions and more are answered in this very special episode of Fat Guys at the Movies: Second Reel.

Posted on

On This Week’s Show: Neil squeals about Team Jacob in his review of the highly anticipated The Twilight Saga: New Moon while Kevin struts around the Magical Studio in the Sky with no shirt on, desperately hoping people will mistake him for Taylor Lautner. After recounting their harrowing stories of braving the hoards of teenage girls at their respective screenings, Kevin and Neil take a trip to Planet 51 then are Blind Sided by Precious before laying down a Fat Guy Five about awesome vampire/werewolf movies (hint: neither Twilight film makes the list). There’s also a bizarre discussion of where Somali Pirates might fit into one of this week’s movies… how does that all work? Listen and find out!

Films Reviewed this Week: The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Planet 51, The Blind Side and Precious: Based on the Novel “Push” by Sapphire and Not to Be Confused with the Psychic Warrior Movie That Came Out Earlier This Year That No One Really Remembers Because Sapphire Doesn’t Know Squat About Psychic Warriors
