Studio Ghibli makes an appearance on the LAMBcast with Hayao Miyazaki’s spectacular success “Princess Mononoke”. When it was first released in Japan, it set box office records and toppled E.T. from the throne of Japanese box office champion. Although it’s reign was short (it was Replaced as the top box office film in Japan by Titanic, just a few months later) Princess Mononoke was influential in making animation a...
Mindless action, intriguing characters, exotic locals and fast moving trains, does that sound like fun to you? It sure did to our guests this week who all had generally good things to say about the latest film from action director David Leitch. It certainly doesn’t hurt when your leading man is Brad Pitt, fresh from therapy and ready to take on gangsters with a new non-aggressive approach, let’s see how that works out. ...
A long time LAMBcast tradition continues this week as we gather together an International cast and have have our guests create their own mini-shows. You are going to get an eclectic mix of movie talk this week with a mixture of films, posters and games all carefully curated for your pleasure.
Howard Casner digs into the origins of classic films to find that they are rooted not only in other books and movies, but often derive...
The biggest horror film release in the Summer, and we could only manage to get one guest to connect with the show. Fortunately that guest was the ever reliable Lisa Leaheey, who in addition to always being able to count on, she is a horror junkie, so we let the right one in. Two of our guests looked up and made eye contact and, well, …you know.
Jordan Peele has released his third horror feature, and although...
This month, Lisa Leaheey championed the winner of the MOTM Poll and she had her reasons. Some of you don’t go in the water because of “Jaws”, some of you take baths instead of showers because of “Psycho”. It looks like Lisa will be avoiding county fairs because of this movie, which traumatized her early on in life.
“Stand By Me” is the beloved coming of age film from Director Rob Reiner...
It has only been two months since the last MCU film was released in theaters, and we will have to wait twice as long for the next one coming in November, but this week we have something new in the series. “Thor Love and Thunder” is a stand alone film, with minimal ties to an overarching storyline, at least for the moment. Those clever producers at Disney will almost certainly find a way to work it into a timeline and plot twist...
It’s time to announce the winner of July’s Movie of the Month poll! July had no theme and, due to various scheduling issues, had only four films submitted and a week within which the voting took place, but regardless you voted and one film gained the most votes, so that’s what will be discussed on this month’s Movie of the Month Lambcast show. So, for July we’ll be...
Happy Holiday Weekend for all the American Lambs. Those of you in other nations, we hope you will indulge us this week as we soak in a little national pride and celebrate the 246th Birthday of the United States. Picnics and fireworks will probably dominate the weekend, but we know that a lot of us are going to watch some movies on the three day holiday. So what should you watch?
Richard and MovieRob have come up with a couple of top...
It’s been eight years since director Baz Luhrmann provided us with a feature film, his last being “The Great Gatsby” in 2013. This year, his new film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival to a thunderous ovation and set the stage for high expectations. It’s time to find out if the audience was merely being excessively polite or if the movie deserves the hype. Did it leave us “all shook up” or “looking...

When June rolls around each year, the LAMB makes an effort to ensure that we have not neglected the work of female directors. As time marches on, there is fortunately less and less chance of that happening, since women have made great strides in the directing field, including films in the MCU, DCEU and the Major Academy Award categories in the last few years. We don’t want to let up however, and there are always women from the past who...
Do you like dinosaurs? Do you like motorcycle chases? Do you like Plane crashes and parachute escapes? If you answered yes to any of these things, you may also like this week’s podcast, because our movie features all of that and more. Oh, one more thing, do you like fan service in a movie? Let’s hope so because there is plenty of that in “Jurassic Park: Dominion” as well.
It has been four years since...
