Episode 275 – So Outside My Comfort Zone

Posted on July 26, 2012

Fat Guys at the Movies

This Week: Kevin is upset about many things in this world, and he wants to change them. He comes to the conclusion that the only way to do this is through the dance and protest art. Unfortunately, Kevin can’t dance worth a damn. So he invites Gleekast co-host Emily Intravia into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about dance and protest art with the new dance flick Step Up Revolution. They also talk about alien invasions and movies about writers with The Watch and Ruby Sparks. They also talk some more about The Dark Knight Rises, Taylor Kitsch’s flailing career and some DVD recommendations. When it comes to the reviews, they really step up. (You see what I did there?)
