It’s time to announce the winner of June’s Movie of the Month poll! As usual June is dedicated to female directors. Seven films were championed, you all voted and there’s one winner so, for June we’ll be talking about… Cléo from 5 to 7!
Congratulations go to Howard Casner of the Pop Art podcast...
This week the Lambcast tackles one of the most monumental film franchises of all time, Peter Jackson’s adaptions of J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings”. Heather Baxendale-Walsh championed the Franchise to victory in the poll and she takes over the discussion with the passion you would expect from a huge fantasy fan. Howard Casner, Todd Liebenow and Matthew Simpson join our fellowship for the podcast and everyone...
Last night/this morning the results of the Oscars were slapped into our faces with great fanfare and aplomb, yet they missed perhaps the biggest award of them all – the winner of April’s franchise special Movie of the Month poll! This oversight has been noted and we’re here today to rectify it, right this very instant. Ten franchises (or almost-franchises) were submitted,...
The vote has been cast and the results are in for March’s Movie of the Month! Five very different films were nominated, there can be only one winner and, given that it’s Oscar season, it seems only fitting that March’s winner is also a Best Picture nominee. That’s right, for March 2022 we’ll be talking about… The Conversation!
It’s time to announce the latest Movie of the Month winner! As is tradition, the Lambcast host gets to pick all the options for their birthday month, and February 2022 is no exception. Richard selected eight films to be voted upon, and you’ve all voted for your favourite to win. It was a pretty even spread, but there cn only be one winner, and for Richard’s birthday month this...
Happy New Year LAMBs! New calendars have been opened, watch dials have rotated another number and all our Letterboxd film tracking accounts have been reset for another year, so it must be time to announce the first Movie of the Month of our latest tour around the Sun. There has been a track record in the past that January’s winner is often, shall we say, not very good? That’s not...
It’s the holiday season! That means December’s Movie of the Month is, as usual. holiday-themed and, as usual, the winning holiday-themed film is only tangentially related to the holiday season (hello Die Hard, Die Hard 2, Gremlins, Batman Returns and Meet Me in St Louis). This time around the film in question might be vying with Batman...
It’s a new month, and that means it’s time to announce the next movie of the month! Five more films were in contention for November’s spotlighted film, but only one can win, and for this month we’ll be talking about… M*A*S*H!
Congratulations go to Todd Liebenow from the Forgotten Filmcast and Walt Sent Me for successfully championing M*A*S*H to victory, and as such he gets to put...
It’s October! Horror month! And with it comes the horror-special Movie of the Month. We made a special exception this month as Lisa couldn’t make it to her own previously winning show, which worked out in her favour because she’s won again! Hopefully she can make it this time as she’ll be hosting the discussion on this month’s winner… Cube!
Congratulations go once again to Lisa...
The August MOTM has just been released, but it’s September tomorrow so we need to move right along to the next movie of the month! The poll was only open for a week this time, but we still had a whole heap of votes cast for your winning movie, and for September we’ll be tackling our first martial arts film in the MOTM dojo. That’s right, the Movie of the Month for September 2021 is… Enter the...
It’s August! Another month, another Movie of the Month poll to determine our chosen film of focus for the next four-and-a-bit weeks. This year we’ve introduced a new special category for August, films predominantly not in the English language. A wide variety of nine films were submitted, votes were cast, and now it’s time to announce the winner. The Movie of the Month for August 2021 is… The Orphanage (El...
July was a bumper month for MOTM votes, with several of the potential champions doing a whole heap of campaigning for their particular film to be crowned the next winner. There were five options, and despite one being a timely action behemoth and another getting a lot of support online, it was Vern’s sheer, dogged onslaught of campaigning that led him to victory with almost half the total votes. The Movie of the Month for July 2021...
