This Week: It’s the 2011 Big Fat Oscar Special, and Kevin Carr invites FlickChick.tv’s Kelly Gingery into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about this week’s new releases, even though they didn’t see either of them. Soon they move on to the Super Bowl of movies and talk about whose gonna win the Big Six (plus a couple others) at the Oscars. Kelly and Kevin agree on many things, though there are some debates. They also chat about the box office, respond to a new listerner voice mail (thanks, Chris from Lansing!) and lay down a Fat Guy Five about the most unlikely nominees.

The 10 Best Films of 2010

Posted on December 29, 2010



BY KEVIN CARR

10. MACGRUBER
IF

I may be the only person in the known universe to find this movie funny (or to have actually seen it in the first place), but I’m okay with that. Considering the desolate minefield of unfunny SNL adaptations that have roamed the planet, it was nice to see a flick that actually made me laugh. It worked as a spoof movie and as a send-up of 80s action flicks. And it was classic MacGruber.

Episode 194 – The Big Fat Christmas Special 2010

Posted on December 24, 2010

fatguysatthemovies_banner

On This Week’s Show: As one big fat guy plans on sneaking into your house in the middle of the night, two other fat guys seek to entertain you as they talk about the new movies of Christmas week. Of course, it’s not hard to be entertaining when you’re looking at drivel such as Little Fockers and Gulliver’s Travels. At least there’s a Coen Brothers movie in the mix with True Grit. Neil only sees the good film this week, and Kevin is so traumatized by Little Fockers that he can’t even make a good stripper joke. Finally, the Fat Guys lay down a Fat Guy Five about the most insane (and only sometimes awesome) Christmas movies out there. Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas from the Magical Studio in the Sky.
