Happy New Year from the LAMB! To celebrate the ceremonial flipping of the calendar, let’s announce the latest Movie of the Month! As usual a bunch of LAMB members submitted all sorts of movies to be voted upon, one of them has won and that lucky film will get a Lambcast episode dedicated to it. We had that rarest of wonders this month with a film receiving zero votes – not even Mark...
The holiday season is upon us, so it must be time to announce December’s holiday special Movie of the Month! Six wildly different, vaguely Christmas-themed films were submitted (other seasonal holidays are eligible, but only Christmas films were championed this year), and you voted on the one you’d like to be discussed on the Lambcast. One of the films has now been deemed the winner,...
Here at the LAMB we’re not trying to wish away Halloween and the spooky movie season before it’s upon us, but we live by a strict podcast schedule that necessitates the announcement of November’s Movie of the Month winner now, now goddammit, now! Six movies were put forward for the hallowed title and, despite a somewhat lacklustre voting turnout this month there is still a...
The month of Halloween is almost upon us, so it must be time to announce our horror-special Movie of the Month winner! We had a mix of classics and newer fare, with a TV spin-off thrown in for good measure this month, you’ve voted and as always there can only be one winner, so for October we’ll be sitting down at the table to feast upon… The Texas Chainsaw Massacre...
Sometimes the best way to win a Movie of the Month poll is to pick a popular film that everyone wants to talk about, but that’s not the only way. I’m not saying whether this month’s winner picked this option or not, but I can for certain say that their particular tactic involved promoting the poll, and their film, as much as possible over the past week, resulting in something...
It’s time to announce the winner of August’s Movie of the Month poll! The theme for August once again was films not primarily in the English language, to try and make the MOTM winners a little more international. Of course, these films can be submitted throughout the rest of the year as well. We had a variety of films submitted from a variety of countries, you’ve been voting...
It’s time to announce the winner of July’s Movie of the Month poll! July had no theme and, due to various scheduling issues, had only four films submitted and a week within which the voting took place, but regardless you voted and one film gained the most votes, so that’s what will be discussed on this month’s Movie of the Month Lambcast show. So, for July we’ll be...
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...
