Episode 271 – You’re Not as Civilized as Us, Ladies

Posted on

This Week: It’s counter-programming week at the movies, and Kevin is facing male strippers, foul-mouthed teddy bears, heartwarming movies and Madea. He turns to Ronald Nicholls from BoxOfficeBuz.com to help fend off these movies… mostly. They talk about how much more evolved men are compared to women, at least when it comes to stripper movies, and they also give an unexpectedly lengthy break-down about what Madea means to movies. In the infamous middle segment, Kevin rolls the dice on box office predictions, they chat about Pixar movies and then they lay down a Fat Guy Five about movies based on toys. Finally, it’s the DVD Rundown, where Ronald finally drops an f-bomb, and they send you off into the sunset.

Episode 252 – Vomit Bullets and Wee-Wee Fire

Posted on

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.

fatguysatthemovies_banner

On This Week’s Show: After the Magical Studio in the Sky is invaded by Kevin’s kids, the Fat Guys talk a bit about alien invasions as well as runaway trains and morning news shows. Of course, Neil hasn’t seen any of the movies this week, but that doesn’t stop him from waxing poetic about Tony Scott and Jessica Alba’s boobs. Before giving their full-figured DVD and Blu-ray picks of the week, Kevin and Neil lay down a Fat Give Five in honor of the recently deceased Dino di Laurentiis.
