This Week: After recovering from Memorial Day week, Kevin stumbles into the Magical Studio in the Sky, exhausted and suffering from Will Smith fatigue. He invites Steve Reeves, whom you might remember from his appearance s on Fat Guys at the Movies: Second Reel, to talk about the first week of June’s summer releases. They chat about Snow Bella and the Thor Guy and throw down some love for the new-fangled Piranha franchise. Kevin and Steve launch into a relatively clean middle segment, talking about enriching your film-watching experience but also giving a bit of advice about hookers and street walkers. They also throw down a Fat Guy Five focused on movies featuring animals that attack. Then it’s tie for the DVD Round-Up and for Kevin to take a nap.

This Week: In order to combat the estrogen explosion in the movie theaters this weekend with The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part I, Kevin invites Dame Elisabeth Rappe into the Magical Studio in the Sky for the female perspective. However, she’s not a fan, and they end up dissecting the movie with more precision than Edward’s vampires teeth on Bella’s uterus. They also break down Happy Feet Two and examine whether cute penguins and snappy dance numbers can actually make a good movie (spoiler alert… they can’t). Then they respond to a listener voice mail and lay down a Fat Guy Five about movie birth scenes, and not in the good way.

On This Episode: For the past two years, a lot of people have been completely confused by all the Twilight hubbub. There’s intense love for the books and movies by the fans, and there’s been intense hate from many fanboys in the blogosphere. In order to bring balance and civility to the entire issue, Kevin has invited Twilight expert Jen Yamato from Movies.com and FearNet.com to help explain the entire phenomenon to everyone out there. Why is Edward so sexy? Is the series anti-feminist? Can Summit survive after Breaking Dawn? And what effect has the World Cup had on Twilight‘s box office? All these questions and more are answered in this very special episode of Fat Guys at the Movies: Second Reel.

They also read an iTunes review and lay down an awesome Fat Guy Five: Five Directors Who Could Screw Up a Kids Show Adaptation Almost as Bad as M. Night Shyamalan.
