This Week: Kevin continues with his month of horror movies for October, but not before weighing in on the news of the week, including silly claims by Kevin Smith, reboot news, why Netflix’s new deals aren’t that new, and why he is totally okay with the new direction of Twilight. Then, it’s off to review the new films: Annabelle, Gone Girl, Left Behind, Stephen King’s A Good Marriage and The Two Faces of January. Kevin also wraps things up with the box office and the world-famous DVD Round-up! Boo times two!

This Week: Kevin gears up for one busy show, featuring news items about Michael Bay and Nicolas Cage (in which one of them wigs out… guess which one). He also takes a look at the new trailers for 22 Jump Street and Transcendence. Later in the show, he replies to listener questions and reviews the films Her, The Legend of Hercules and Lone Survivor. As the show winds down to a close, Kevin interviews Scott Mactavish and Dan Murphy from the documentary Murph: The Protector and rattles through box office and the world-famous DVD Round-Up!

This Week: Kristin and Kevin stagger into the Magical Studio in the Sky with a level of excitement that matches the quality of the run-of-the-mill films for Labor Day Weekend. It’s either that or a curious mixture of cough syrup and vodka that made them so tired. After stumbling through the paperwork on the show, they weigh in on the massive news of Ben Affleck as Batman, which pretty much broke the Internet last weekend. Then they slag through the major releases, including Closed Circuit, Getaway and One Direction: This Is Us. (Squeeeeeeeee!!!)

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.

This Week: It is a dark time for movie reviewers. Being the middle of February, most of the releases are absolute crap, and the studios haven’t screened them. But that doesn’t stop honey-badger reviewer Kevin Carr from pushing ahead with the Fat Guys at the Movies podcast. He invites Ronald Nicholls from BoxOfficeBuz.com to not review the new films this week, including Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (which was not screened for anyone, and that’s the studio that screened Jack and Jill) and This Means War (which suffered from marketing confusion and botched Valentine’s Day screenings). They also tip their hats to The Secret World of Arrietty, which is probably all kinds of awesome, but Disney didn’t screen it much because it is such a limited release. Kevin and Ron also answer a listener question, talk about the box office and list some of the best Studio Ghibli movies in the Fat Guy Five.
