On This Week’s Show: Neil gets embroiled in the fest known for being fantastic, so Kevin tracks down former guest-host Kelly Gingery from FlickChick.tv to join him in the Magical Studio in the Sky. Together, they sink their teeth into You Again and debate what they want to see in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps. Also, Kevin gushes over the new 3D CGI flick Legends of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole while Kelly gushes over George Clooney (again!). Then they talk a bit about box office and lay down a Fat Guy Five that’s none too flattering to Jamie Lee Curtis.

And there’s another unannounced surprise guest who makes an unscheduled appearance in the infamous third segment, utterly derailing the show. But Kevin and Shannon persevere, talking about Machete with the proper accent, Going the Distance with their thoughts on rom-coms and swooning over George Clooney in The American. Also, in honor of Danny Trejo, they lay down a Fat Guy Five about what it means to be a “that guy” in Hollywood. Oh, and Shannon gives us the scoop about Lindsay Lohan’s boobs.
