    Acting School 101 – July 2017 – Natalie Wood

    This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Natalie Wood.

    We received a total of 42 reviews for 15 films that Natalie Wood had parts in. Plus 2 general posts about her life and work.

    That’s quite an impressive amount.

    Let’s see what the members of the LAMB community thought of Natalie Wood’s career:

    LAMBCAST #382 SAVING PRIVATE RYAN MOTM

    With Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk just around the corner, this month’s Movie of the Month could well be considered a companion piece to it, as this week we’re delving into Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan.

    As the movie’s champion Rob led the discussion, and was joined by super fan and regular host Jay, relative newcomers to the film Jess and Damien, and absolute first-timer...

  • 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.

    Acting School 101 – July Introduction – Natalie Wood

    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...

    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...

    Acting School 101 – June 2017 – Gene Wilder

    This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Gene Wilder

    We received a total of 31 reviews for 17 films that Wilder had parts in.

    That’s quite an impressive amount for someone only having starred in only 22 films in his career.

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

    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:
