    LAMBScores: The Draft Day in Rio

    This week’s LAMBScores features four new releases that didn’t seem to gather much critical attention. It was a varied lineup though, representing various genres: war drama (The Railway Man),  horror (Oculus), animation (Rio 2) and sports (Draft Day)....

    LAMBScores: The Most Divergent Nymphomaniac


    This week’s trio of new releases couldn’t be any more different. Undoubtedly, there is little overlap between the target audiences for Nymphomaniac: Vol. I, Muppets Most Wanted and Divergent. Find out below which film appealed most to the LAMB members and don’t forget to have your say in the forums.

    LAMBCAST #211 SCHWARZENEGGER/STALLONE DRAFT

    We’ve done actor drafts on the Lambcast before, but never anything this epic. Host Jay Cluitt was joined by Nolahn, Shane Young, David Brook and former-host Dylan Fields to raid the careers of the Austrian Oak and the Italian Stallion in order to compile the best roster of movies possible.

    The teams they eventually came up with will be posted in a few days to be voted on so be sure to head back here then to vote, but...

    LAMBCAST #210 THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL

    It seems strangely fitting that a film with so many famous people in it should be discussed on a Lambcast with the fewest amount of guests in over 150 episodes.

    The latest all-star Wes Anderson movie was highly praised by host Jay Cluitt and all-round amazing guest Nick Rehak, who more than made up for the lack of additional guests by being the film’s number one cheerleader.

    Also on tap were many rants and raves of...
