This Week: Kevin takes a hint from Gerard Butler in the new film Machine Gun Preacher and he finds a man of God to join him in the Magical Studio in the Sky this week. That man of God is Reverend Scott, a frequent guest on the Outside the Cinema podcast. He’s not a great man of God, but he’s got a picture of Cheech Marin with a shotgun on his Twitter avatar, so that’s gotta count for something. Reverend Scott preaches to Kevin about giant boxing robots in Real Steel, politics as usual in The Ides of March and why he’s so much cooler than Gerard Butler in that preacher film. Oh, and there’s some pretty offensive stuff in the third segment. Sins abound!

After throwing some hate at Sarah Jessica Parker and questioning if anyone will see The Lion King in 3D, they contemplate what an update of Straw Dogs would be like before gushing over Drive. Then, they talk box office and answer some listener feedback before laying down some of their favorite driving movies. Then it’s the DVD Rundown and back to their respective corners.

This Week: After the wake of Comic-Con coverage, Kevin invites Dame Elisabeth Rappe into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about the event and sink their teeth into the grizzled coverage of Cowboys and Aliens. In the process, they also drop-kick a few Smurfs and Kevin unleashes venom all over Crazy Stupid Love. They also talk waaaaaaay too much about prostitutes in the old west and San Diego, plus Kevin gets the dirt on which transportation workers at Comic-Con you should avoid. Finally, there’s a story about a parrot and a Fat Guy Five about mash-up movies. And some DVD recommendations as well. Can’t let you go without some of that sweetness.
