    LAMBScores: The Misery of Slavery


    This week on the LAMBScores we catch up with 2012’s big Christmas Day releases Django Unchained and Les Miserables. On the surface, these films seem completely different, but they have more in common than you think. Specifically, both films are set in the 1800s and are focused on a former slave who becomes empowered. Find out below what the LAMB members thought of these two Oscar nominees. Remember,...

    INTRODUCING THE FILM PASTURE, A NEW PODCAST OF THE LAMB

    In this first episode, we...

    MOTM/LAMBcast #149: Night of the Comet

    The Princess BrideWatchmenDawn 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...

    LAMBScores: Hit the road Jack


    Let me apologize for the late posting of these LAMBscores. I’ve been unusually busy this week, so it took a while for me to get around to them. We have 4 scores for you today, including a Tom Cruise actioner Jack Reacher and a pair of comedies – The Guilt Trip and This is 40. The movie that left the best impression though, was Michael...

    LAMBcast #148: Actor Career Draft – Tom Hanks

    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...
