This Week: In order to combat the estrogen explosion in the movie theaters this weekend with The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part I, Kevin invites Dame Elisabeth Rappe into the Magical Studio in the Sky for the female perspective. However, she’s not a fan, and they end up dissecting the movie with more precision than Edward’s vampires teeth on Bella’s uterus. They also break down Happy Feet Two and examine whether cute penguins and snappy dance numbers can actually make a good movie (spoiler alert… they can’t). Then they respond to a listener voice mail and lay down a Fat Guy Five about movie birth scenes, and not in the good way.

This Week: Kevin goes to the ends of the earth – or rather the other side of the earth – to find Simon Miraudo from QuickFlix.com.au as this week’s guest host. While neither one has seen any of the new movies for the week, that doesn’t stop them from talking about the phenomenon of Madea and Robert Pattinson’s smell-the-fart acting. Simon also surprises us with an advanced review of Thor. Then there’s some talk of 3D televisions, Randall’s nature shows and a Fat Guy Five about most anticipated summer (and Australian winter) movies.

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.

On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil strip down to their jean shorts and scamper through the Magical Studio in the Sky, leaving their man-wolf stank all over in hopes of attracting someone as pale and vapid as Bella Swan. They sink their teeth into The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and the shake their heads in shame for the travesty that is The Last Airbender. They also read an iTunes review and lay down an awesome Fat Guy Five: Five Directors Who Could Screw Up a Kids Show Adaptation Almost as Bad as M. Night Shyamalan.

Steve Carell and Tina Fey have teamed up to deliver a great date night movie, appropriately called Date Night. And that got us Fat Guys thinking while this movie is great for a real date night, there are plenty of film out there that are not.
So, as a public service, we have compiled a list of five movies you really don’t want to take a date to… unless they’re into that sort of thing.
With the release this week of yet another Nicholas Sparks movie, we now have learned the true formula. Take a forbidden summer romance, throw in some upper-class/lower-class tension and nice picturesque shots of Savannah’s beaches, and you’re only missing one thing…
Like any good horror movie, a Nicholas Sparks movie would not be complete without someone dying.
And that got us thinking… if only every movie was written by Nicholas Sparks, who would we have liked to see bite it in other films. What follows is a fun, but hardly definitive, Fat Guy Five list!
