Editor’s note: Welcome to the first of a multi-part series dissecting the 2008 Academy Awards, brought to you by the Large Association of Movie Blogs and its assorted members.

What is the main focus of your site (reviews, editorials, news, lists, etc.)?
I’m still trying to figure that out, I think. Mostly reviews and lists from what you mention, maybe some special editorials from time to time. Like most of us living outside of L.A., I doubt I’ll be breaking any major news,...
[Editor’s Note: This site has not posted new content in over a year (as of 5/18/11) and is now considered a dead LAMB. A moment of silence please…]

Okay, almost everything has been settled – all but one award has been granted to a LAMB (and even one to a not-yet LAMB – thanks to Daniel from Getafilm). That one would be Best Picture. Things shook out a little differently than I expected, so I’m going to call a small audible on what I had previously stated regarding this category, if only because I don’t want to assume too much.
So, for the LAMBs that...

What is the main focus of your site (reviews, editorials, news, lists, etc.)?
At Dave’s Movie Reviews I focus on reviews, but also have a section called Deeper Thoughts that focuses on the deeper meanings or philosophy of films.

(Editor’s note to non-LAMBs: In celebration of the Oscars, the Large Association of Movie Blogs will be running a blog-a-thon of sorts, with a number of LAMBs writing a post on the field of a given category. This post serves as an announcement of the event to you, and also hammers out a number of details for the LAMBs. Thanks!)
Ok, the categories for the LAMB Oscars Uber-Event Type Thing (note: name needs work) have...
As you might have seen or heard already, I’ve installed a new feature to the LAMB – and this is another one that you can take with you!
On the left sidebar, you’ll now see a widget that is a feed reader for all of the current LAMBs (that I could get a feed for). Jed of The Movie-Fanatic had requested this of me previously (or at least, something like this) and it’s a great idea.
Whether you just come...

The purpose of my blog is to provide entertaining views on entertainment.
What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out...
As you (my fellow LAMBs) have probably noticed, we’ve been doing our fair share of emailing back and forth lately about the various issues of the day. Most of what has been discussed has been related to the upcoming (?) Oscars, but there’s also some talk about suggestions for this site and other ways in general for us to team up/collaborate/what have you.
Long story short, you and I have probably been getting a lot of LAMB...
