It’s been a busy time around the LAMBcast parts as of late. Academy Award predictions, the recent Nightmare on Elm Street franchise look-back, the upcoming Las Vegas episode. As such, it was nice to kick and just talk about some recent viewings, theatrical or otherwise. On hand for the discussion was Joel, Kristen, Dan, Jay, and Dylan.
Also on tap:
* Rants and Raves of the Week (featuring an epic – in...
A tradition like no other…it’s Academy Award predictions on the LAMBcast. The cast is Dylan, Nick, Shane, Nick P. and Vern. We discuss a number of categories, with the main focus on:
Picture, Director, all Acting and Writing awards, Documentary Feature, Animated Feature and Foreign Language Film
Also on tap:
* Rants and Raves of the Week
* Name That Film Times Five
A few notes:
* The...
I don’t know what to tell you, but this contest was over before it started. Not sure what Justin of Man, I Love Films used to bribe people, but it worked (and he assured me that his campaigning was all “legit”). Identity destroyed the field from about two hours into the polling all the way through the end, winning with over 40% of the vote. As such, Justin becomes the latest Champion and has won a...
I could easily lead off with some joke about how abstract Last Year at Marienbad is or how much I want to play Nim or what those people standing there like mannequins might have been thinking the whole time this film was made, but frankly, I think we did enough of that on the podcast (see below). Suffice to say, Marienbad is a strange, interesting, boring, mysterious, exciting, beautiful, bizarre film…often times all...
I believe the proper nomenclature is as follows:
*ahem*
If you got a problem, yo, we’ll solve it.
That’s basically the motto for the Ask the LAMB feature here, a segment that finds its host Jason Soto alternately begging for fun/interesting questions from LAMB members and (eventually) just trolling Yahoo Answers for the truly insane questions. It’s been a personal favorite feature of mine on the site,...
Another year, another 2,000 sequels, reboots and remakes await moviegoers worldwide. From Man of Steel to the delayed Great Gatsby to the delayed G.I. Joe sequel and everything in between.
Nick hosts this ep, and was joined by Joel, Jess, Kristen and first-timer Shane as they rattled off their respective most anticipated films for the coming year. Think you can guess which films each participant is most...
Strap yourselves in.
Lindsay, Jessica, Nick, Justin, and Dylan gathered round the campfire to rattle off their Top 5 films of 2012, and it’s an epic. As if that weren’t enough, we even threw in some special awards for key films/scenes/actors/etc. It’s a fun show that covers a surprisingly wide array of films…made even wider with Nick’s compulsion to name every honorable mention in his list of 400 films...
It started off as a tight race between all five films, but it didn’t take long for two to break from the pack. In the end, the pick from Brian Roan of Dear Film, 1961’s Last Year at Marienbad, took home the prize (see poll results below). As such, Brian becomes the latest Champion and has won a chair in the LAMBcast in which we’ll discuss the film, and the hosting rights to the MOTM segment (more...
The results are in and the people have spoken! On episode #148 of The LAMBcast , we held our third Actor’s Career Draft, in which Nolahn, Nick, Jay, Todd, and Dylan cycled through Tom Hanks’ filmography, selecting films of his to be on our “teams” for our own mythical film festivals. To make it a bit more challenging, as part of his hosting, Nolahn decided that – from our six-round draft – we’d have...
The Princess Bride? Watchmen? Dawn of the Dead? Big films, you might say? Night of the Comet can’t hear you. Kristen chose this barely-seen apocalyptic zombie sci-fi-comedy and it tore up the competition. The question is, is it underseen/underloved or justly forgotten?
Before we get to the links, here’s the IMDb summary for the film, for those that aren’t familiar with...
Multiple Oscar winner. Box office champion. Bosum Buddy. And now…LAMBcast Career Draft subject. You’re welcome, Tom Hanks!
One thing I can say for sure is that, despite starring in fewer films overall (and I’m probably stating the obvious here), Hanks’ career – or at least 30 films’ worth of it – is vastly better than that of our last draft subject, Bruce Willis. In that draft, I...
“This….is…LAMBpardy!”
Now entering the studio are today’s contestants…
First up is the five-time champion, from Man, I Love Films…Dylan Fields. Dylan like long walks in a mall and dining at Red Lobster. He one day dreams of flying into a tree. Our first challenger is Jason (Jay in LAMBcast world) Cluitt of Life Vs. Film. Jay takes pictures of squirrels in his spare time and once...
