Fall officially kicked off on September 22nd, and while the prestige film fare might not arrive simultaneously, we all know that the awards season (and the year’s second blockbuster season) come fairly quickly afterwards. As such, film buffs salivate over all of the potentially great films set to arrive from…
Dylan, Justin, Jason, Mette, and Bubbawheat gathered ’round the virtual campfire to do that ages-old tradition: talking about films that we’ve watched recently and have things to say about. For some of us, it’s rewatching an old favorite, for others it’s talking up an underseen film in theaters now, for…
After last month’s destruction by, appropriately, Demolition Man, we were due for a change of pace, and boy did we get one. We had quite the downturn in participation; after 137 votes last month, there were just 51 this month, but the upside of that is that we had an intense…
Is it a silly action flick with a quasi-serious message or a serious action flick made silly by two decades of aged cheese? Is it really from 1993 or is it the last 80s film? Is it live or is it Memorex? These questions and many, many more surround the…
If it’s time for a Roll Your Own Top 5 episode on the LAMBcast, you can be pretty certain that two things will occur: 1) Jason Soto will be present, and will probably be hosting; and 2) you’re going to get a diverse array of unpredictable lists. Food. Obscure horror…
Sad news: unless there’s enough interest next year (or later) for an Expendables look-back, this is likely to be the last franchise look-back featuring Sylvester Stallone. After covering the Rocky franchise with the first one of these look-backs and now this (in addition to Demolition Man being the upcoming MOTM), you could…
“This….is…LAMBpardy!” Now entering the studio are today’s contestants… First up is Nick Powell, the master of trivia who is the reigning two-time champ, a threat to destroy the competition each and every time out. Taking on the challenge are two first-time players in Robert and Bubbawheat. Can they rise to…
I had previously alluded to there being a so-called LAMBcast Summer Series. Over the past few months, we’ve covered Iron Man 3, Star Trek Into Darkness, Fast & Furious 6, and Man of Steel. Finally, we’ve come to the end, with Neill Blomkamp’s follow-up to 2009’s surprise blockbuster District 9. Elysium is set…
Apparently, Jay really, really wanted to win, and he really, really wanted Demolition Man to be the film he won with. The man from Life vs. Film went all out for the MOTM poll; overall, we had 137 votes, and his film had more than half of them, in a competition…
Wanna win the Movie of the Month poll? I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s a lock – particularly not when there’s more than one film meeting the criteria – but choosing a film from pre-1965 seems to be a pretty solid strategy. I also wouldn’t go so…
