    Lambscores: He Will, He Will, Ragnarok You

    Just one film for you this week but that’s OK because it’s a big one, and a great one at that. Clearly everyone isn’t sick of the Marvel onslaught yet (myself included) as everyone seems to have mostly positive remarks on Thor: Ragnarok:

    LAMBCAST #400a: MOTM MY GIRL

    My Girl! My Girl? My Girl! Talkin’ ’bout My Girl!

    My Girl won the Movie of the Month for November, so we covered it as one of the mini segments in the epic 400th Lambcast Extravangaza, but it didn’t feel right to short change the movie like that. To make up for it, Kristen, Audrey and Jay stuck around and recorded this special bonus discussion, to dig a little deeper than we were able to do in...

  • The Movie of the Month for December 2017 is…

    The Movie of the Month for December 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    As usual the December Movie of the Month is a holiday special and this year whilst six films were submitted, there may as well have only been one. This poll was over within a few hours of it being opened because one of the submissions is often regarded as not only one of – if not the – greatest Christmas movies of all time, but also one of the best movies full...

    Lambscores: Geostorm, Only The Brave, The Snowman, The Killing of a Sacred Deer

    A lack of major releases means the few smaller films just about scraped through on their review counts, though one of them is one of the worst reviewed films of the year. Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about Geostorm, Only The Brave, The Snowman, The Killing of a Sacred Deer:

    Acting School 101 – December Introduction – Samuel L. Jackson

    Welcome Back Students!

    Rob from MovieRob here!

    Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this reignited series is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who have been entertaining us all for so many years.

    I plan to try and focus on an actor or actress every month who has a birthday in that given...

    Lambscores: Blade Runner 2049, The Mountain Between Us, Victoria and Abdul

    For some reason in last week’s round-up I proclaimed that next week, which of course is now this week, we’d be looking at the reviews of, amongst others, the My Little Pony Movie. Sure it was released along with the other three of this week’s new movies, but why I thought we’d get any reviews for it, let alone enough to do a Lambscores post, I’ve no idea. Regardless we’ll carry on Pony-less and dig into...
