This Week: In the doldrums of summer, Kevin is wandering aimlessly because there were no screenings for any of the movies opening for Labor Day weekend. So he invites fellow live-tweeter Leonard Wilson into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about whatever they can figure out from the trailers of the movies. Later, they examine Olivia Munn’s career and what she could do to get more exposure (if you know what they mean). Then they talk about the box office of the previous week and also lay down a Fat Guy Five about children’s films that adults can enjoy as well as kids. Then, in the final segment, they run down a slew of DVDs and Blu-rays before saying good-bye for another week.

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.
