    SYTYCR Round 3.4: Zelda’s Kid Sister VS. Henry Swanson (HP – SORCERER’S STONE)

    What great reviews that last battle, huh? Congrats goes out to Fox Mulder, who moves on to the next round. But now it’s time for the final battle of Round 3! This next battle sees Zelda’s Kid Sister, who made it this far with her reviews of Eraserhead and The Exorcist. She faces off against Henry Swanson, who got here with Singin’ in the Rain and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Today they take on...

    SYTYCR Round 2: The Fallen Identities

    In the last couple hours, there was an influx in votes and Hayley almost took the win. But in the end, that went to Henry Swanson, who will be moving on to the next round. Congrats! Now Round 2 is over and, like in Round 1, it’s time to announce the identities of the Round 2 fallen. And tomorrow we will begin Round 3, which should only last about a week! So sit back, relax, and comment your reactions to those who are no longer in the...

    SYTYCR Round 2.8: Hayley VS. Henry Swanson (CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON)

    Finally got some more good voting and commenting! I don’t know if it was the controversy of the review or me threatening to discontinue the tournament… but either way, keep it up! And congrats to Zelda’s Kid Sister for winning and moving on to the next round! Now it’s time for the final battle of Round 2! We have Hayley, who won the first round with her review of The Room, facing off against Henry Swanson, who...

    SYTYCR Round 2.7: Zelda’s Kid Sister VS. Falkor (THE EXORCIST)

    If we can’t get the voting back up to what it was before (though potentially without cheating), there might not be a version two of this down the road. Anyway, congrats to Kasper Gutman who won the battle and will be moving on to the third round! The next round has Zelda’s Kid Sister, who won in Round 1 with her review of Eraserhead, battling against Falkor, who moved through automatically, despite his incredibly...

    Ask The LAMB #4

    Can you even HANDLE a fourth edition of Ask The LAMB? I have my doubts! All I need is for you to prove me wrong.

    Today’s guest contributor is Andrew from The Stop Button

    John from The Droid You’re Looking For Asks:
    If you could absorb all the power and abilities of any movie character
    by killing and eating them, who would you choose and why?

    Interview with a LAMBpyre: Jason Soto of Invasion of the B Movies

    Bubbawheat back again with another edition of Interview with a LAMBpyre. I wanted to showcase some of the Lamb members and what better way than to ask them a few questions about themselves and their sites? I’m starting out by going through some of this year’s Lammy winners and hope to bring back some less active Lambs in the future. This week I’m talking with Jason Soto of Invasion of the B Movies who won this year’s...

    Brutally Blunt Blog Blustering #69 – At the Back

    It’s Blusterin’ Time!

    If you’re new to this feature or need a refresher, click the label at the bottom of this post and see the previous posts. Otherwise, here are the basics:

    What I do is list a site; you critique it. But here’s the catch: to induce the most honest reactions, don’t leave the comment using your normal alias/login – instead, go anonymous, and be as brutally honest (or...

    SYTYCR Round 2.6: Pinocchio_Liez VS. Kasper Gutman (CITY OF GOD)

    I suppose that’s better than last time, but still really low–especially in comparison to the first two battles of this round (Hell, they’re both low even by Round 1 voting standards). Anyone care to share some thoughts as to why such a drastic decline in votes lately? Anyway, congrats on Fox Mulder for knocking that one out of the park. He’ll be moving on to the next round. Congrats! This battle will see...

    Trailer Trash Tuesday: 08/14/2012

    Well it looks like the bat has finally met his match. Coming at number three this week, he is beaten out by “The Campaign” at number two,  and “The Bourne Legacy” at number one.  Following behind “The Dark Knight Rises” is “Hope Springs” at number four and “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days” at number five.

    This weekend we get Sly and...

    SYTYCR Round 2.5: Fox Mulder VS. Eyes Wide Open (DIE HARD)

    What happened? Voting was low even by Round 1 standards. Was it the weekend? Hopefully things will pick up again. Well, congrats to The Honorary Swede who will be moving on to the next round. This battle will see Fox Mulder, who won the first round with his review of Rope, face off against Eyes Wide Open, who won his first round battle with his review of Maid in Manhattan. And what a transition, for today’s review battle...

    LAMB Casting: On the Waterfront (Results)

    Andrew here, FINALLY with the results of the last LAMB Casting entry. I’ll admit, a part of me kept holding off the closing of the polls hoping there’d be a last minute surge, but from the get-go your votes were all headed in one particular direction. I’d like to salute all six bloggers for their inspired re-casting take on Eliza Kazan’s On the Waterfront.

    Let’s take a look at what the line-up...
