    LAMBCAST #170: ASK THE LAMB #2

    I believe the proper nomenclature is as follows:

    *ahem*

    If you got a problem, yo, we’ll solve it.

    That’s the motto for the Ask the LAMB feature here, a segment that finds its host Jason Soto trolling Yahoo Answers for truly insane questions. It can bring some seriously credible answers from a wide variety of film bloggers. It can also bring some seriously funny answers. Occasionally, it does both.

    And...

    LAMBCAST #169: FAST & FURIOUS 6

    I don’t want to give anything away just yet, but can we talk for a minute about FAMILY?  The LAMBcast FAMILY wishes to invite you to listen to episode 169, in which we discuss Justin Lin’s fourth entry in the Fast & Furious series, and we welcome you to invite you aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins, grandparents, Diesels and Ludacrisses (Ludacri?).  In other words, we’re having a FAMILY reunion to...

    LAMBCAST #168: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS

    Who is Cumberbatch playing?  Will there be more cameos from the original series’ cast members?  What’s up with Alice Eve?  To Spock or not to Spock?  And seriously, does J.J. Abrams have it out for San Francisco?  These questions and many more were tackled on episode 168, in which Dylan, Justin, Jessica, Jay and Sebastian discussed the sequel to the 2009 megahit in detail.

    Also on tap:

    MOTM/LAMBCAST #167: AMERICAN PSYCHO

    Feels like forever since we’ve had one of these, no?

    A serial killer horror-comedy period piece…in the wrong hands, American Psycho might have been a nightmare all its own.  But director Mary Harron (I Shot Andy Warhol), who also adapted the screenplay of Bret Easton Ellis’ novel, delivered a pop culture postcard complete with one of the all-time great breakout roles in Christian Bale’s...

    LAMBCAST #166: IRON MAN 3

    This flick made a gazillion dollars in its opening weekend and is on track to probably become the number one box office hit of the year – do I really need to introduce it much?  You’ve seen it already, and if you haven’t yet, there’s a good chance you won’t until it hits video.

    But what you haven’t seen or heard is Jay from Life vs. Film (fresh with a new, streamlined URL!) hosting his first...

    LAMBCAST #165: FRANCHISE LOOK-BACK: THE DISNEY RENAISSANCE

    As I mention during the show (and for anyone that was paying attention over at the Forums), this episode was initially intended to be split in two.  After all, we cover an insane nine (!) films in it.  However, life found a way to get in the way and we were forced to do it all in one monstrous ep.  So you ought to know that you’re in for a long ride, though considering the number of films discussed, I think we were pretty...

    LAMBCAST #164: TOP 5 ACTIVE DIRECTORS

    This episode is being posted later than was planned, so let’s get right to it:

    Originally, we’d planned to split our Franchise Look-back on the Disney Renaissance films (nine of them!) into two episodes.  Unfortunately, scheduling issues forced us to combine them both into one monstrous episode (coming next week).  As such, we had a free week and a spontaneous topic arise within the last couple days prior to the recording...

    LAMBCAST #163: LAMBPARDY! #9

    “This….is…LAMBpardy!”

    Now entering the studio are today’s contestants…

    First up is the reigning new champion, Nick Powell.  The master of trivia took down the prior five-time champ (um, me) last time, and is now challenged by his podcast co-host The Vern, as well as his longtime trivia nemesis Kristen.   Can he make it a repeat, or will his stay at the top be short-lived?

    MOTM/LAMBcast #161: <i>The Princess Bride</i>

    It was a battle for the ages, and it led to a film containing a fair few battles eing the winner.  Yes, The Princess Bride took down Primer, this renewing the debate over what should and shouldn’t be a Movie of the Month yet again.  Should it shine a light on lesser-known/lesser-seen gems that slipped through the cracks or should it feature timeless classics?  If you ask me, the answer leans towards the former but...

    LAMBcast #160: Bring Your Own Discussion Topic

    First off – if you haven’t yet, go follow The LAMBcast on Twitter!

    What’s better than one feature discussion?  How about four of ‘em?  

    It’s only took about three years, but I think it’s safe to say that we’ve got a nice stable of rotating general show outlines (Whatcha Been Watching Lately?, Roll Your Own Top 5, Franchise Look-Backs, etc), and Bring Your Own Discussion Topic is just one of...

    Done?  Ok, now, the show…

    Coffee.  Frances McDormand.  Porn.  Inventions.  And corny time travel.  Let it never be said that these types of episodes are run-of-the-mill.  We travel all over the board and back again, exploring the various ways films can be compared to a myriad number of cheeses as well along the way.

    Anyway,...
