    Lambscores: Kidnap The Big Dark Sick Tower

    Summer is, alas, drawing to a close, and sadly that means we’re starting to close out the films deemed unworthy of the tentpole release dates, and have been relegated to the dreaded August time slots. It’s not all doom and gloom though, with the lack of quality blockbusters some smaller gems poke through, which is exactly what happened with this week’s crop. Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about The Dark...

    LAMBCAST #389 HARRISON FORD DRAFT

    Blade Runner 2049 is just a few weeks away at this point and, whilst there’s sadly no room in the Lambcast schedule for a show devoted to it, we can partially celebrate it in another way, by holding a draft on the original film’s star, Harrison Ford. So grab your whip, your blaster and your commemorative Firewall pickaxe, we’ve got some drafting to do!

    Jay was joined by draft veterans David and Richard,...

    The Movie of the Month for October 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    As things will be recorded a little out of sync for the next few weeks, it’s time to announce October’s horror-special movie of the month winner, even though we’ve not yet posted September’s. Don’t worry about it, it’ll all get sorted out in due course, just go with it for now. There was an eclectic mix of 80s, 90s and very recent horror...

    Lambscores: Atomic Blonde

    Given that David Leitch has so far directed or co-directed two established-star-goes-on-highly-stylised-killing-spree movies, I think we can imagine a fairly accurate template to predict what Deadpool 2 is going to be like, and that’s fine by me. This week’s Lambscores are just for one of Leitch’s movies, Atomic Blonde, here’s what the LAMB community had to say about it:

    LAMBCAST #388 ROLL YOUR OWN TOP 5

    Got a long show for you this week, but I think it’s worth it as it’s a fan favourite – Roll Your Own Top 5!

    Jay was joined by Heather, Zoe, Howard and Damien to discuss a variety of topics, including South Korean films, introductions to horror, modern franchise reboots, man-made women and Star Wars spin-offs. Pretty eclectic mix this week, right? Well it got even more so, when we broadened the discussion to...

    The winner of the 1987 Movie Draft is…

    A few weeks ago on the Lambcast we held a 1987 Movie Draft, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of both that year and Jay’s birth. On the show, Jay competed against Todd, Nick, Richard and Dylan to assemble the best team of movies released in 1987, and now it’s time to announce the winner, but you can still go back and listen to that show here. It was a very close race, but in the end it seemed the listeners all gave Jay birthday...

    The Movie of the Month for September 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    Another month, another movie poll for that month’s movie of discussion. It was a fairly uneventful poll this month, with one film taking a slight lead and maintaining it throughout, but all the others performing admirably as competition. As such I’ll stop trying to jazz up the commentary and instead just reveal that for the month of September we’ll be...

    Lambscores: Take a Trip to the Beach, or the City

    Three movies for you this week. Dunkirk, as you might have guessed, is quite rightfully receiving a great deal of praise, and I couldn’t be happier about that. It’s now #2 on our leaderboard for the year, so hurrah! There’s also good news for the apparently-much-better-than-Rough-Night Girls Trip, so yay! The third movie is Valerian, and it’s perhaps one of the most divisive films of...

    LAMBCAST #387 CLUE MOTM

    There’s been a murder! Several, in fact, and someone on this very podcast did it…

    Fear not, there’s no detective work required to seek out this show, in which we covered the most recent movie of the month, arguably the greatest board game adaptation yet, Clue. Jay was joined by the movies champion, Sean, as well as big fans Jeanette, Nick and Todd to discuss the characters, weapons and numerous...

    Lambscores: Monkey’s Paw

    Before anyone says anything about the post title, I know that monkeys and apes are different things, but when there’s a simian-centric movie out the same week as a be-careful-what-you-wish-for horror, well there’s only one direction I’m going in pun-wise. So without further ado, here’s what the LAMB community had to say about War For The Planet Of The Apes and Wish Upon:
