    Lambscores: Deadly Sparrow

    Just two films for you this week, neither of which I thought looked particularly good, but that could be more for my general disinterest in Jennifer Lawrence than anything else. Anyway, here’s what the LAMB community had to say about Red Sparrow and Death Wish:

    On this week’s Lambcast we held our first Director Draft and focused on the one and only Steven Spielberg, you can (and should) listen to the show here. Now it’s time to vote for the team you think is the best! The poll is at the bottom , but first, the teams!

    Lambscores: Let’s Play Annihilation

    We’ve got two movies for you this week. First up is Annihilation, Alex Garland’s follow-up to Ex Machina, which went straight to Netflix everywhere outside of the US (fine by me, it means I’ve seen it), and then there’s Game Night, which sounds far better than expected. Check them out, and check out the reviews from the LAMB community:

    LAMBCAST #418: THE SPIELBERG DRAFT

    Ready Player One is just a couple of weeks away from being released, and it’s a film we at the Lambcast are pretty excited about, so it seemed like the perfect time to celebrate the career of one of the greatest directors working today, and the best way we know to celebrate something is to critique, debate and flat-out fight over it in a draft.

  • The Movie of the Month for April 2018 is…

    The Movie of the Month for April 2018 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    As is customary, our April Movie of the Month is a franchise special, and as usual we had a pretty diverse range of franchises put forward, from animation to superheroes, indie romance to, well, Tremors, but there’s no real shock as to what eventually won, although some others were chasing like a giant boulder rolling behind it for some time. If that’s not a big...

    Lambscores: Prehistoric Panther

    I don’t mean to disrespect the previous few weeks of Lambscores, but I think it’s fair to say that today is where 2018’s films really begin, at least in terms of spectacle. Paddington 2 may still hold the top spot for the year so far (a fact I am in no way annoyed by), but in terms of a cultural milestone and slice of event cinema you can’t really compare anything so far to Black Panther. As such I...

    Acting School 101 – April Introduction – Michelle Pfeiffer

    Welcome Back Students!

    Rob from MovieRob here!

    Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this reignited series is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who have been entertaining us all for so many years.

    I plan to try and focus on an actor or actress every month who has a birthday in that given...

    Acting School 101 – March 2018 – Steve McQueen

    This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Steve McQueen.

    We received a total of 63 reviews for 27 films that Steve McQueen had parts in.

    That’s quite an impressive amount.

    Let’s see what the members of the LAMB community thought of Steve McQueen’s career:

    LAMBCAST #417: CELEBRITY LAMBPARDY

    It’s time for everyone’s favourite time of the year, Celebrity Lambpardy!

    Alas your regular celebrity host, Sean Connery, was too ill to record, but fortunately Nicolas Cage stepped up to the plate to attempt to wrangle this year’s competitors in some kind of order. Joining him in the Lambpardy studio were Matthew McConaughey, Swedish Chef, Jimmy Stewart, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Fierstein and Al...

    LAMBCAST #416: THE MUMMY (1999) MOTM

    It’s a podcast, what harm even came from listening to a podcast?

    It’s Mother Day’s in the UK this Sunday, and today is International Woman’s Day, so what better time to discuss 1999’s The Mummy? Jay was joined by Audrey Fox, Kristen Lopez, Zoe Rose Smith and Richard Kirkham to talk about the Stephen Sommers’ action-horror reboot in all it’s tomb-raiding, flesh-eating, fez-wearing...

    LAMBCAST #415-2: OSCARS IN REVIEW

    We watched the Oscars, listen to what we thought about it!

    A very tired and poorly Jay was joined by Audrey, Jeanette, Todd and Richard for a brief special discussion on this year’s Oscar ceremony, who won and how we feel about that.

    The show can be found, of course, via iTunes – just do a search for “LAMBcast.” Also, I always post a link to the show on the LAMBcast’s Facebook page, and there’s a player...
