This Week: Kevin starts off the show with an appropriate reaction to the theater shooting last week and whether this should lead to metal detectors in movie theaters. (Spoiler alert: it doesn’t, and that suggestion stemmed from vulturous media outlets trying to get readers and web hits in the wake of a tragedy.) Then, after the trailer park, Kevin reviews Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, Vacation, Infinitely Polar Bear, A Lego Brickumentary and The Stanford Prison Experiment. Finally, he gives his unique take on the box office and offers up some DVD recommendations.

This Week: Kevin takes aim at a couple things in this episode, namely backwards-minded studios who still think that reviewers only have an audience in the city where they live. But before his rants about that, he talks about some news and moves into the reviews of Guardians of the Galaxy, Get on Up, I Origins, Life Itself and the ambitious but disappointing Boyhood. Kevin also ponders whether dumb action movies with women are still okay for feminism and what you can pick up on DVD and Blu-ray this week.

This Week: Because one of the movies opening this week stars Bradley “Popsicle Eyes” Cooper, Kevin brings Dame Elisabeth Rappe back into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about her bizarre Ikea fantasies with the actor. They also talk about Henry Cavill and his ruling power in the Czech Republic. And speaking of the Czech Republic, they also look at the new bizarre stop-motion animated toy movie Toys in the Attic. When they careen into the infamous middle segment, things quickly derail as they discuss the sad state of American college students, how to make a pink rainbow and Elisabeth’s experiences with an accidental anti-Semite in college she lovingly referred to as “American Psycho.” They also talk about the movies they’re still looking forward to in 2012, as well as the sad state of Clint Eastwood’s sanity. The show is so packed full of stuff, some actually had to be edited out. So keep your eyes open for a bonus episode in which Kevin talks about his penchant for women’s fashion and why so many of Elisabeth’s neighbors live in the closet until they go shopping with their spouses.

This Week: Kevin invites Marco Cerritos into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about the new movies and swear all over the radio segments. Of course, when it comes time for the middle segment, Kevin unloads on the profanity as they talk urban dictionary slang for sex acts, road rage and eventually finish out the show with a look into Jodie Foster’s Beaver (yeah, that joke never gets old). They also talk about the new movies Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark, Our Idiot Brother and Colombiana before laying down a Fat Guy Five about some loveable movie idiots.
