    Invasion of the Lambs #17

    Welcome to the first of what I hope to be several resurrected features here at the LAMB. Invasion of the Lambs is a screenshot game that stopped short after 16 installments almost two years ago, but certainly not from lack of interest. It will now be a regular Saturday feature.

    Many sites have screencap quizzes, but how many are invaded by...

    Poll Results; New Poll

    It seems most of us take scores from sites like Rotten Tomatoes into consideration for what films to watch, but they’re not the absolute deciding factor, which is what I assumed. I was surprised at the 27% who ignore them completely.

    Next, I want to know what your thoughts are on the recent Netflix price change. It seems to be a mixed bag of anger and apathy. What say you? Will you be keeping with Netflix all the way, dropping...

    Speaking of LAMB Banners, three new ones have been added...
