It seemed inevitable that The Thing would finally become the MOTM, after a couple progressively better showings in the polls (just as it seems inevitable that The Third Man will win one of these months). Good thing, too (no pun intended), as it’s a hell of a film. Interestingly enough, it wasn’t deemed a classic (and wasn’t commercially successful, either) upon its release, where it barely earned its budget back and arrived...
Reminder: The LAMBcast/MOTM blog-a-thon extravaganza for The Thing happens this Saturday! Send your links for posts/reviews to blogcabins@yahoo.com (or new email address, dylan@manilovefilms.com) by 6:00 AM Pacific on the 11th.
Also – if you have any suggestions for movies that you want to get on the poll for future MOTMs, get them in now.
Thanks!

The poll results are in – thank you to the 67 voters (a new high!) who have made The Thing the next MOTM. Here’s what needs to go down from here:
* The first thing you need to know is that June 11th is the big day.
* You have just under three weeks to watch the flick if you haven’t already, and to write up something, then send me the link (blogcabins@yahoo.com) to either what you write or something...
The voters in our last MOTM poll overwhelmingly selected Oldboy as this month’s film, and it’s not hard to see why. Chan-wook Park’s genre-spanning 2003 film shockingly was not an instant classic, but has become more than a cult icon in the eight years since its release, climbing the IMDb Top 250 (it currently sits at #97) and, more importantly, becoming more and more known as one of the quintessential Asian films of the new...
I posted this on Facebook, but wanted to put the note up here as well: due to scheduling conflicts, the MOTM blog-a-thon (and the posting of the MOTM-themed LAMBcast) will be happening on Monday rather than today. The good news – this gives you more time to get your posts/reviews of Oldboy in!
Send all links to blogcabins@yahoo.com. Thanks!

The poll results are in – thank you to the 58 voters who have made Oldboy the next MOTM. Here’s what needs to go down from here:
* First thing you need to know is that May 14th is the big day.

Alright you jive-ass turkeys…it’s time to shut up and listen, ’cause grown ups is talking.
That’s right, it’s time for the Movie of the Month, and with it, the LAMBcast dedicated to said movie. If you haven’t seen the 2009 comedy that kisses the feet of the blaxploitation genre just prior to sweeping those feet from the ground, you’re missing out. Can you dig it? So kick back, have yourself...
Here’s the skinny:
* The Movie of the Month is Black Dynamite.
* The blog-a-thon drops April 16th.
* Watch the flick, write up something and/or send me the link (blogcabins@yahoo.com) to something previously written. If you’re planning on doing the former, please hold the post in draft until the 16th (you can send a link prior if you have the capability to do so).
* On the 16th, the...

The gang of four is back after a one-week hiatus to bring you a new kind of LAMBcast. Jason, James, Nick and Dylan couldn’t find anything worth discussing in the new release section, so we watched This Is Spinal Tap (for the first time!) and convened to break it down. Smell the Glove, baby!!
Also on tap:
* Listener Feedback
* LAMB of the...
I have good news and bad news and good news and – well, frankly, I’ve lost count. I’ll just put it in the order I learned it: There were zero entries for December’s MOTM, White Man’s Burden, suggested by DJ at Matte Havoc. That’s some bad news. However, since the holidays no doubt had something to do with this, I’ve decided that we ought to extend this through January. So get it,...
Not a great turnout for the November LAMB MOTM, Fletch’s suggested Red Rock West, which is a shame. I’m hoping it’s just the holidays that are to blame.
