    PLUG: Insight Into Entertainment

    With a relatively unsurprising first round, the next rounds look to be a mash up of sex appeal, talent and hotness. I guess they made some damn good movies in the 90s too. Can Brad Pitt take it away or will the 80s winner John Cusack take it? Come vote in Round 2 starting Tuesday, May 31st at http://insightintoentertainment.blogspot.com/

    Thanks,
    Jess

    PLUG: The Movie Snob

    [Editor’s Note: Sorry for the lateness of this plug.]

    Having not seen any of the Harry Potter films was purely coincidental. I kept telling myself I would see them. Then the next film in the series would come out, then the next, until I had fallen behind. I have never read a word of the novels, so I had no desire to seek them out I suppose. Well, I’ve heard enough. Enough from my friends and enough from media...

    PLUG: Just Plain Something

    So here’s the deal…

    Besides my own site Just Plain Something, I write for a TV blogging site called cliqueclack.com. In the last month or so, we’ve soft-debuted a movie side to the site. My editor Keith McDuffee is looking for some fresh new writers to be brought in for that side of the site, and I would love to extend the invitation to my fellow LAMBs. If you could post a blurb about this opportunity, I would be most...

    PLUG: Japan Cinema

    Japan Cinema has just released an article to address some common pitfalls of movie blogging. This guide is not sugar coated! In short, it is advice given in hard to swallow doses.

    Nothing against new movie blogs. I remember what it was like starting off. Getting low traffic and struggle to find an audience. It’s just that there seems to be so many movie blogs doing the same thing nowadays. You don’t want to be one of them do...

    PLUG: $7 Popcorn

    Hello,

    Some of you may know me already as the author of the infrequently updated 7 Dollar Popcorn (LAMB #80). If you’ve read 7dp lately or follow me, or the blog on Twitter, you may have heard that I was in a movie last year called Dead Woods. Well, that movie is finished, printed and ON SALE NOW.

    Here’s the thing, I was very involved in this movie. I just can’t be objective about it. I need...

The line-up announced includes features about a formula one legend, a late-night talk show personality that was unceremoniously fired, real life people doing things you’ve seen in KICK-ASS, the plight...

    PLUG: Best for Film

    Hello!

    At Best For Film we’ve just launched a writing competition for bloggers, and we’d really appreciate it if we could wangle a LAMB plug!

    So, details:

    Hollywood Haikus – reviewing a film in 17 syllables.

    We’re aware that with the entire of cyberspace to fill up, reviewers can get rather carried away with their analysis of the latest releases. That’s why we’re launching Hollywood Haikus – a...

    PLUG: Foolish Blatherings

    My sister-in-law has accused me of not watching and reviewing movies of people of color. I decide to prove her wrong by doing my own blog-a-thon with minority based movie for the week beginning April 17th to the 24th. I will review only movies with minorities in the lead.

    Got a Press Release, something to Plug, or a Screener available for review (or some combination of the three)? Ok, don’t get all crazy about it. Just click here...
