  • Lambscores: Mummy, Cousin Rachel and It

    Lambscores: Mummy, Cousin Rachel and It

    There’s an unintentional connection between the three movies up for today’s Lambscores – they all have very dark, almost-but-not-quite black-and-white posters. Could this be because they all have an element of horror to them? Probably. That’s more likely than all the poster-printing companies having run out of magenta ink, so let’s go with it. Anyway, here are the thoughts of the LAMB community on It Comes At...

  • LAMBCAST #381 BABY DRIVER

    LAMBCAST #381 BABY DRIVER

    Whilst we never got to see Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man, the silver lining on that shrinking-and-growing-again cloud is we got to see Baby Driver, the film he’s been planning for around two decades, that  little bit sooner.

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Kristen Lopez, Nikhat Zhara and Courtney Small to discuss the action-crime-musical-comedy-romance-thriller, it’s glorious soundtrack, and just how much...

    Lambscores: Wonder Woman

    One big blockbuster for you this week, the film that seems to have broken the so-called “DC Curse” and hopefully pave the way for many more female-driven, female-directed quality tentpoles. This week the LAMB community is looking at Wonder Woman:

    LAMBCAST #380 WHATCHA BEEN WATCHIN’ LATELY

    Nope, still no LambyWeds game, instead it’s time to talk about some movies!

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Rebecca Sharp, Howard Casner, Heather Baxendale and Nick Rehak to kick back and chat about some films they’ve seen recently.

    Also on tap: Rants and Raves of the Week and a game of Last Lamb Standing.

  • The Movie of the Month for July 2017 is…

    The Movie of the Month for July 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    The LAMB site wasn’t entirely active for much of this month’s voting period, so we had less votes than usual and to compensate, all the films that didn’t win will get another chance at the title next month, if their champions wish. Despite the technical issues there is still a very clear winner for this month, with the movie’s champion getting in a...

    LAMBCAST #379 THE SPY WHO LOVED ME MOTM

    It’s Movie of the Month time again on the Lambcast, and for the second time we’re talking about a James Bond movie, in this case The Spy Who Loved Me, the 10th Bond film overall and the third to star the sadly departed Sir Roger Moore.

    Now when it comes to talking about Bond, surely nobody does it better that Aaron Neuwirth, the movie’s champion. He was joined by Richard Kirkham, Bubbawheat and Jay...

    Lambscores: Alien Pirate Lifeguards

    Apologies for the delay in Lambscores posts recently, as you may have noticed the LAMB site was down for a short period, but is now back up and running, so there’s two weeks of scores here today! That’d be so much more exciting, if only they were for better movies. Alas, here’s what the LAMB community thought of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales/Salazar’s Revenge, Alien: Covenant and...

    LAMBCAST #378 THE MUMMY

    When it comes to new releases, here on the Lambcast we only typically cover the major blockbusters and franchise sequels, things like Star Wars, James Bond, Harry Potter and the superhero tentpoles. In an effort to broaden those horizons, Universal’s announcement of their plans for a “Dark Universe” piqued out interests, so we thought we’d get in on the ground floor (not counting Dracula...

    Lambscores: Snatch 2: Lock Stock and a Stone-bed Sword

    I’m not gonna lie, this week is not a good one for new releases. King Arthur looked like it might be decent, and given Snatched was Amy Schumer’s follow-up to Trainwreck there were high hopes there too, but alas it seems expectations were mostly disappointed given the generally negative scores from the LAMB community:
