    REMINDER: Lamb Photoshops!

    Just a reminder to send in those Lamb Photoshops by MONDAY JULY 4TH at 11:59PM EST! The theme of the shops is IF MICHAEL BAY REMADE CLASSIC FILMS. Email said photoshops to [email protected] and include your name and your website/blog.

    I only got one submission and I’d really like to see this thing take off. If you’re worried about it being professional, don’t. Even if it’s something in MS Paint,...

    Poll Results; New Poll

    It looks like enough of us are interested in a dvd swap to take it under consideration as a new LAMB feature. I’ll start planning on a system and details, but if anyone has any ideas or would like to head this up, please let me know in the comments or by email.

    This new poll was inspired by a rant on a recent episode of the LAMBcast. Just out of curiosity, what do you think about film review aggregators, such as Rotten Tomatoes?...

    New Feature: LAMB Photoshops!

    Hi! Remember me? My name is Jason and I use to run the LAMB Chops and the Horror Chops. I’ve stop doing those due to poor turnout and now I’m passing the savings onto you!!!

    Well, more like presenting you with a new feature for the LAMB! This is going to be our little pilot episode to see if any of you guys take to this. Here’s how it works:

    I’ll give you a theme, and using any photo editing software you...

    LAMB Casting: All About Eve (VOTING BEGINS)

    Andrew here. I’ve received your entries for LAMB Casting this month, recasting the 1950 classic All About Eve – and they sure are inspired. Now it’s time for all you LAMB members (and non-members) to start voting. Sure, you’re probably tired from voting for the LAMMY’s and what not (bombard Rachel if you want your results, ha) but this is simple. Just one click. You’ve got some great options...

    Poll Results; New Poll

    Well, it seems the For Your Consideration banners decorating the LAMB during the LAMMY nominations voting were very helpful, or at least entertaining, to most. We had a record-breaking 81 banners this year, up 16 from the 2010 LAMMYs. Thanks to all who sent them in and all the voters who actually took them under consideration.

    And now for something new. There have been a few bloggers whom I regularly read discussing their DVD/Blu-Ray...

    LAMB Casting: All About Eve

    Andrew here, with another episode of LAMB Casting. We took a relatively new film the last time with P. T. Anderson’s Magnolia but this month we return to our classic roots and are recasting Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s 1950 Best Picture winner All About Eve. It’s a notorious ensemble (featuring one Oscar winning and four Oscar nominated performances) and it’s appeared time and time again on list of ...
