  • LAMBCAST #356 EX MACHINA MOTM

    LAMBCAST #356 EX MACHINA MOTM
    It seems very fitting that the show upon which we discussed Ex Machina, a film about the testing and issues involved with Artificial Intelligence, was fraught with so many technical difficulties. Dropped guests, lost connections and dying batteries led to one of the more eventful recordings, and that can mean only one thing – more outtakes! Jay Cluitt was joined by the film’s champion, Kristen Lopez, along with Nick Rehak, Sean...

  • The Movie of the Month for January 2017 is…

    by Jay Cluitt · Dec 28, 2016 at 12:25 CST · MOTM, MOTM Champions · No Comments
    The Movie of the Month for January 2017 is…
    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon! In the past few years January’s Movie of the Month has traditionally been something of a cult choice – this hasn’t been planned, it’s just how it worked out – with the likes of TimeCop. Southland Tales and Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins taking the crown, but for 2017 the options were all a little more well respected, with Timecrimes, Groundhog Day, The Man...

    LAMBCAST #352 BATMAN RETURNS MOTM
    A giant rubber duck! Zombie cat gnawing! Penguin pall-bearers! It’s almost Christmas, so we’re of course talking about Batman Returns! Jay Cluitt was joined for the latest Movie of the Month by Bubbawheat, Jess Manzo and Richard Kirkham, to dig into this “festive” film. Also on the show: Rants and Raves of the Week and a couple of games of Last Lamb Standing. Here’s what the rest of the LAMB community has to say...

    LAMBCAST #348 AND THEN THERE WERE NONE MOTM
    It’s Movie of the Month time again on the Lambcast, and for the month of November we’re looking at a largely forgotten 1945 Agatha Christie adaptation, And Then There Were None, which sees 10 strangers summoned to a secluded island by a mystery host, only to find themselves killed off one by one. Newcomer Sean Homrig championed the film, and was joined by Jeanette Ward, Lindsay Street and regular host Jay Cluitt to discuss it. The...

    The Movie of the Month for November 2016 is…
    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon! It was another tight race this month for three contenders who presumably did a great deal of championing for their films. Ex Machina did well, and Timecrimes almost took it, so Kristen Lopez and Jason Soto should certainly be inclined to try again some other month, but the winning film for November is… And Then There Were None...

    Lambcast #343 Carry On Screaming MOTM
    It’s October, so once again the Lambcast is devoting most of the month to horror, starting out with another horror-themed Movie of the Month and, as is tradition, it went in a completely unexpected direction as this week we’re talking about the 1966 British “classic” Carry On Screaming. Joining Jay Cluitt is Carry On… superfan Rebecca Sharp and bemused newbie Kristen Lopez to discuss the franchise in general, the...

    Lambcast #339 Cool Hand Luke MOTM
    Just because Jay is away, doesn’t mean the show can’t go on! And this week it’s time for the latest Movie of the Month, looking at the great Cool Hand Luke! Kristen Lopez takes her first turn in the hosting chair, and is joined by Richard Kirkham, Jess Manzo, Jeanette Ward and the movie’s champion Joe Guiliano to discuss whether Cool Hand Luke truly is a “guy’s movie”, Paul Newman’s performance as...
