So the end of August turns out to be a confluence of interesting bumps. Lisa Leaheey champions “the Orphanage” to Movie of the Month Status. Richard is traveling this weekend so he asks Lisa to host the show by herself, since she was going to do most of the hosting anyway. Everything is set until Tropical Storm “Henri” decides to batter the Northeastern U.S. and Lisa is without power or internet connection. Knowing...
This week we finally get a film that has been promised to us on three other dates during the pandemic. The big question should be whether delayed gratification was worth it, but our guests this week found a lot of bigger questions to ask as well. This Ryan Reynolds vehicle is full of movie special effects and sardonic humor, but you will discover strengths and weaknesses that you never imagined.
Richard was joined...
This week our group of super villains, “The Yak Attack” dissects the newest film from the DCEU, “The” Suicide Squad, not to be confused with simply Suicide Squad. There has been a range of opinions on line about the film, and not surprisingly, we repeat the pattern. Jeanette Ward, James Wilson, Todd Liebenow and Bubbawheat follow Richard onto the beach and into the face of enemy fire.
We are...
Highly anticipated, and like many other films this year, long delayed, “The Green Knight” is a retelling of the Arthurian Legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. It is a poem that has been translated by many, including J.R.R. Tolkien, from it’s middle English roots. This week it is translated by writer/Director David Lowery to film and our guests tackle it’s meaning, accomplishments and...
It’s Lambpardy time again!
Three new challengers are here to compete for the penultimate place in the second round of the 2021 Lambpardy Tournament.

This month the contestants are:

Every once in a while M. Night Shyamalan peeks his head out with a new thriller. The source of our fear is not always the subject of the movie, but instead, whether we are getting “The Sixth Sense” or “The Happening”. This week, Richard took three other Lambs to the beach to play on the sand. Now it is time to reveal if we got a glowing tan or a crimson burn.
“Old” is a mix of...
The Vern won the Movie of the Month Poll this July, and unlike past victories of his, no one wants to kill him for championing this film. “Ginger Snaps” from 2000, was the subject of the latest Lambcast and horror films seem to work not only at Halloween but during the Summer Months. It might be a bit of a spoiler to say this is a werewolf movie, but if you did not know that going in, you did not see any artwork used in the...
The wait is finally over, theaters are open, and the MCU is back with the first film from Phase 4, or is it the last film in Phase 3? You will have to decide because there is a lot of looking back but also much to look forward to.
After having been moved around on the release schedule at least three times, Richard managed to keep the fols who were originally scheduled to be on the show back in 2020 on this podcast. We even added...
The Independence Day weekend has been a location for blockbuster Summer movies for decades now, but this year, the long holiday weekend found the Big Blockbuster movie, not on a cinema screen but on your TV screen. “The Tomorrow War” was originally planned as Paramount’s big Christmas release, but it got pushed back and then sold for a bundle to Amazon, who decided not to go theatrical but straight to...
The title says 9, but this is actually the tenth film in this franchise since “Hobbs and Shaw” does not feature “the family”. So however you measure it, they still make it to space faster than Jason or James Bond.
This film was due out a year ago and Red Digital Cinema, who had paid highly to have their cell phones placed in the movie, have left the mobile phone market entirely since the film wrapped. Which...
This week’s show is an all singing, all dancing revue, which finds Richard and his guests pirouetting on the side of a building, poppin’ on the stairwell, and doing donuts in the community pool. All of this filmed in brilliant lighting and clever camera movements. OK, that’s not really happening, but we do get to talk about all of those things on the podcast.
Lin-Manuel Miranda, the creator of the...
June is reserved for a Movie of the Month that comes from a female director. A Woman’s perspective is welcome any month but we don’t want it to get neglected by the capricious nature of voting so all entries for this Episode were directed by women and Karyn Kusama’s 2009 teen girl horror comedy topped the returns. It was a film expected to do better, widely criticized on it’s release, and having developed a much better...
