Hey there, sorry for this late June addition of the LAMBoard. By the way this LAMBoard is from now on automatic updated from the new LAMBtable courtesy of Bonjour Tristesse. So this is a feature that won’t be slacking from now on!
I’m happy to see a fellow Swede topping the charts for June (I think its a first in Swedish LAMB history). Other than that we are down to three generic ones in the chart which is awesome. Make...
Now that’s what I’m talkin’ about! It really came down to the wire on this one, as Eyes Wide Open made a huge come-back and ended up tying the score right up to the end. And in the end, it was Eyes Wide Open who won it out by a single vote. Real underdog story there. Congrats! For the next battle, we’re skipping back a bit and hitting up the one we had to skip a while back. Since the skip, one of the contestants had to...
Welcome to the second edition of Ask The LAMB, the only movie advice column you need!
Today’s Guest Contributor is Never Too Early Movie Predictions!
From Yahoo! User #3:
Why do the crappiest movies always seem to win the Oscars?
Take for instance, movies that wanna make me slit my own throat, like The Reader, Benjammin Button, or that awful movie, The English Patient. What gives? Who decides what...
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 Stevee Taylor of Cinematic Paradox who won this year’s Lammy...
I’ll be honest yet again… the results of that last battle shocked me. Not at the winner, but that it was such a decisive winner. I figured there would be much more of a battle there. Anyway, congrats goes out to Fox Mulder, who will move on to the next round! And we have officially made it halfway through Round 1! For this next battle, we move from classic to modern-day ‘eh’ with romantic comedy,
Despite the gutsy move to give The Little Mermaid a negative review, it just wasn’t enough for Deems Taylor. So Botch Casually will move on to the next round. For this next battle, we’re looking at the second Hitchcock of the tournament, Rope. And I can say this with honesty: This is one of the battles I’ve been waiting for. I believe this will probably be one of the toughest ones to vote on (depending on...
Let’s not ever doubt the power of family movies during the summer months. Many of us including myself thought “The Amazing Spider-Man” would hold strong at the number one spot for a while. But it was dropped down to second place and replaced by “Ice Age: Continental Drift. Those furry creatures have lasted for a while, and from the look of it, have no interest in becoming extinct anytime...
Ouch. That last battle had a pretty clear winner from early on. And with that, The Honorary Swede moves on to Round 2! For this next battle, we get the second animated flick of the tournament–Disney classic, The Little Mermaid. Read, vote, comment, enjoy! You have until Tuesday. NOTE: I totally...
What a controversial battle! And a tight race there at the end! But in the end, in literally the last minutes before midnight, Dr. Richard Thornton came out on top by about 2 votes and will be moving on to Round 2! Congrats! And thank you to everybody who commented and critiqued, anonymously or otherwise. I do ask that you do not actually insult the contestants, however. Otherwise, great stuff. For today’s battle, I actually had to...

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 complimentary) as you wish to be. Also, be specific, and naturally, don’t be rude. If I deem anything inappropriate, I’ll have no problem deleting the comment.
