This Week: Kevin takes a hint from Gerard Butler in the new film Machine Gun Preacher and he finds a man of God to join him in the Magical Studio in the Sky this week. That man of God is Reverend Scott, a frequent guest on the Outside the Cinema podcast. He’s not a great man of God, but he’s got a picture of Cheech Marin with a shotgun on his Twitter avatar, so that’s gotta count for something. Reverend Scott preaches to Kevin about giant boxing robots in Real Steel, politics as usual in The Ides of March and why he’s so much cooler than Gerard Butler in that preacher film. Oh, and there’s some pretty offensive stuff in the third segment. Sins abound!
