    Lambscores: Wonder Woman

    One big blockbuster for you this week, the film that seems to have broken the so-called “DC Curse” and hopefully pave the way for many more female-driven, female-directed quality tentpoles. This week the LAMB community is looking at Wonder Woman:

    The Film Pasture: Top 5 TV Shows to Binge Watch

    Some TV programs you watch occasionally while others you watch weekly. These are the ones that you watch back to back until the whole entire season is done. Most likely after that you are just jonzing for the next season to start. Yeah, those shows. The Vern is joined by guest Tony Cogan( https://coogsreviews.wordpress.com/) to discuss some great shows that deserve all the hours of your day. We also read some favorites from other...

    The Movie of the Month for July 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    The LAMB site wasn’t entirely active for much of this month’s voting period, so we had less votes than usual and to compensate, all the films that didn’t win will get another chance at the title next month, if their champions wish. Despite the technical issues there is still a very clear winner for this month, with the movie’s champion getting in a...

    Acting School 101 – July Introduction – Natalie Wood

    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...

    LAMBCAST #379 THE SPY WHO LOVED ME MOTM

    It’s Movie of the Month time again on the Lambcast, and for the second time we’re talking about a James Bond movie, in this case The Spy Who Loved Me, the 10th Bond film overall and the third to star the sadly departed Sir Roger Moore.

    Now when it comes to talking about Bond, surely nobody does it better that Aaron Neuwirth, the movie’s champion. He was joined by Richard Kirkham, Bubbawheat and Jay...

    Lambscores: Alien Pirate Lifeguards

    Apologies for the delay in Lambscores posts recently, as you may have noticed the LAMB site was down for a short period, but is now back up and running, so there’s two weeks of scores here today! That’d be so much more exciting, if only they were for better movies. Alas, here’s what the LAMB community thought of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales/Salazar’s Revenge, Alien: Covenant and...

    Acting School 101 – June 2017 – Gene Wilder

    This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Gene Wilder

    We received a total of 31 reviews for 17 films that Wilder had parts in.

    That’s quite an impressive amount for someone only having starred in only 22 films in his career.

    Let’s see what the members of the LAMB community thought of Wilder’s career:

    Lambscores: Snatch 2: Lock Stock and a Stone-bed Sword

    I’m not gonna lie, this week is not a good one for new releases. King Arthur looked like it might be decent, and given Snatched was Amy Schumer’s follow-up to Trainwreck there were high hopes there too, but alas it seems expectations were mostly disappointed given the generally negative scores from the LAMB community:

    The Movie of the Month for June 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    June’s Movie of the Month race saw a great deal of campaigning from at least three of the contenders. Damien, Kristen and Vern all fought tooth and nail to try and get either Breaking Away, My Girl or The Neon Demon to victory, but alas a great tragedy fell with the sad loss of Sir Roger Moore, so it was no surprise that the eventual winner...

    Lambscores: Gotta Guard That Galaxy Again

    2017 once again sees a steady stream of superhero movies for us all to enjoy (there’s another promising-looking one released today that you may have heard of), but perhaps the most eagerly anticipated was Marvel’s first entry of the year, the sequel to 2014’s surprisingly awesome Guardians of the Galaxy. Personally I really enjoyed this film and think Kurt Russell is a terrific addition to the franchise, plus it...
