Episode 310 – An Armenian Paris Hilton with a Big Butt

Posted on

This Week: Kevin tries to claim credit for his box office predictions, but Kristin quickly becomes hip to his jive-turkey plan. Soon, Kevin moves on to analyze the similarities between Michael Bay movies and the Twilight franchise, suggesting that if one type is dangerous and offensive, the other is as well. Eventually, they move on to reviewing the new films out there (or rather reviewing the one film they actually had a chance to see). They stick it to G.I. Joe: Retaliation and then show some relief for not having to sit through the new films from Stephenie Meyer and Tyler Perry. Kevin takes the opportunity to offend people with a statement of sacrilege before prattling on about his spring break Trekathon. Meanwhile, Kristin hangs her head in shame for her co-host.

fatguysatthemovies_banner

This Week: Kevin invites Elisabeth “Rattlesnake” Rappe from Chud.com and Film.com into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about alcoholics in movies, ass-kicking kids and faaaaaabulous hair-dos in fantasy films. The show is promptly derailed only a few minutes in when Elisabeth reminds Kevin about his bottled-up feelings for 80s-era Grace Jones, and Elisabeth opens up about certain films on late-night Cinemax later in the show. They also find time to talk about Arthur, Hanna, Your Highness and Soul Surfer as well as David Bowie’s alarming codpiece from Labyrinth. It’s a crazy time this week on Fat Guys!
