    Brutally Blunt Blog Blustering #76 – Where the Long Tail Ends

    If you’re new to this feature or need a refresher, click the label at the bottom of this post and see the previous posts. Otherwise, here are the basics:

    What I do is list a site; you critique it. But here’s the catch: to induce the most honest reactions, don’t leave the comment using your normal alias/login – instead, go anonymous (for now you probably need to comment through bogus information and I’ll moderate all comments...

    Our first subject is going to be Australia. Australia Day, the national holiday of Australia, is celebrated each year on January 26. It marks the...

    LAMBCAST #201: TIMECOP MOTM


    Jean Claude Van Damme! Time travelling! Kicking things! This month’s Movie of the Month champion is not what you’d necessarily call a “good” film, but it certainly provoked an entertaining discussion covering the career of JCVD, the ramifications of time travel and whether or not the same matter can share the same space (it can… but it can’t).…

    LAMBCAST #199: DIRECTOR RETROSPECTIVE – THE COENS

    If it seems as though we just keep getting more and more ambitious with these lookbacks/retrospectives…well, that’s pretty much true.  That said, we’re not insane.  The Coen Brothers had 15 films in their filmography prior to Inside Llewyn Davis; as much as we might have liked to watch all 15, that would make for at least a four-hour podcast, to say nothing of the time involved in watching/rewatching all of them...

    LAMBCAST #198: ANCHORMAN 2

    The sequel was years overdue, so why shouldn’t the podcast about the sequel be a few days late as well? 

    Justin hosts this svelte episode (co-starring Lindsay and Dan Clark) on the long-awaited comedy.  Was the wait worth it?  What bits hits and which bombed?   Can lightning be caught in a bottle of Sex Panther once again?  These questions and many more will be answered by our hard-hitting team.
