    LAMBCAST #182: FRANCHISE LOOK-BACK – RAMBO

    Sad news: unless there’s enough interest next year (or later) for an Expendables look-back, this is likely to be the last franchise look-back featuring Sylvester Stallone.  After covering the Rocky franchise with the first one of these look-backs and now this (in addition to Demolition Man being the upcoming MOTM), you could say – and you’d be right – that the LAMBcast has more than had...

    Foreign Chops #15: Spain

    Robert from Sketchy Details back with another edition of Foreign Chops. This month, we’re exploring the cinema of Spain with a lot of great writing from LAMB members. The most popular film was The Skin I Live In and, unsurprisingly, Pedro Almodóvar was the most popular director (though Luis Buñuel got some love, too). Check out the links and stay tuned for the next Foreign Chops announcement.

    LAMBCAST #180: ELYSIUM

    I had previously alluded to there being a so-called LAMBcast Summer Series.  Over the past few months, we’ve covered Iron Man 3, Star Trek Into Darkness, Fast & Furious 6, and Man of Steel.  Finally, we’ve come to the end, with Neill Blomkamp’s follow-up to 2009’s surprise blockbuster District 9.  Elysium is set in a similar world and time and covers themes not all...

    The MOTM for September 2013 will be…

    Apparently, Jay really, really wanted to win, and he really, really wanted Demolition Man to be the film he won with.  The man from Life vs. Film went all out for the MOTM poll; overall, we had 137 votes, and his film had more than half of them, in a competition that was a competition for about 12 hours before it got out of hand.  To the rest of the potential Champions (well, except for Joe, perhaps), don’t fret.  Try again...
