fab|2.0 - EPISODE 007 - SMT #28: Dodgeball

Specific Movie Talk:
"A friendly neighborhood gym is threatened with foreclosure when the giant mega-corporate gym across the street wants to tear it down to make way for a new parking structure. Owner Frank LaFleur must come up with $50,000 in under a month, or Average Joe's will be a casualty in Globo-Gym's quest for world domination. It's a desperate, last-ditch idea, but Frank and his misfit band of irregulars enter a national Dodgeball tournament in Las Vegas. The prize? Conveniently enough, it's the $50,000 he needs to keep his place open just a little longer. Starring Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller, Dodgeball contains just enough laughs to make it this month's Specific Movie Talk."
