On This Week’s Show: It’s Halloween weekend, and that means the Fat Guys are more concerned about getting a big bag of candy instead of watching movies. This might account for the fact that neither of them saw Saw 3D… or maybe it was because like most of the other Saw movies, Lionsgate didn’t screen this one for press. That doesn’t stop the Fat Guys from talking about it, as well as a brief nod to the new Oscar-bait film Conviction, which Kevin did see. Neil is too tired in this episode to care either way. The show rolls on as Kevin tells how he almost got in a fight after seeing Paranormal Activity 2 before talking box office numbers and laying down a Fat Guy Five, in which he ranks the previous Saw movies.

On This Week’s Show: So many movies… so few screenings. In spite of the fact that almost no movies were screened for them this week, Kevin and Neil meet in the Magical Studio in the Sky to not talk about Armored, Brothers and Transylmania. (There were screenings for Everybody’s Fine, but the Fat Guys each missed it for personal reasons… so sue them!) But even without knowing anything about the films opening this week, the Fat Guys take time to discuss Neil’s faux pas with his girlfriend, Kevin being a near body double for Taylor Lautner, Neil’s homoerotic fantasies about Neil Patrick Harris and how to tweet in Klingon. tIv cha’!
Films Not Reviewed this Week: Armored, Brothers, Transylmania and Everybody’s Fine

On This Week’s Show: Neil has gone on a clandestine mission to our nation’s capital, including a visit to the Pentagon to warn our military of the impending threat of giant alien robots. This leads Kevin to meet up with his chubby co-host in the Magical Studio in the Sky, from an undisclosed location (which may or may not be a jail cell). Together, they travel to the Moon before joining Brüno in saying I Love You, Beth Cooper! Before handing down a Fat Guy Five about awesome movies that take place in space, Neil tries to declare that Michael Bay is an intellectual director while Kevin unleashes some venom on the late and perverse Michael Jackson.
Films Reviewed this Week: Moon, Brüno and I Love You, Beth Cooper.
