I don’t want to say that MOTM poll winner Justin (of Man, I Love Films) did anything improper to not only win the poll but destroy the competition (especially since he’s a friend of mine and writes for my site), but let’s just say that the reaction to his choice of film and the amount of reactions from LAMB members didn’t exactly substantiate the pick. And yet, it’s not as though we on the LAMBcast came up short...

It was just a happy coincidence and/or poor (great?) planning that this show came not only just a week after the Vegas meetup episode, but also happened to feature three people (myself, Jason, and Lindsay) that were there for the meetup. So the three of us got to know each other a bit more, but to make it more interesting, we were also joined by Nick P. and Jay. This was an unorthodox show compared to our usual fare, where we’re really...

To say that this is a special episode of the LAMBcast would be one of the larger understatements that I could make in this space. It’s also one of the more unconventional shows we’ve had. I really can’t recall at the moment whose idea it was to have a LAMB meetup in Las Vegas, but I do know that once the idea was in my head (well over a year ago), I ran with it and ran hard. Very quickly, the notion to hold it during Oscars...

It’s been a busy time around the LAMBcast parts as of late. Academy Award predictions, the recent Nightmare on Elm Street franchise look-back, the upcoming Las Vegas episode. As such, it was nice to kick and just talk about some recent viewings, theatrical or otherwise. On hand for the discussion was Joel, Kristen, Dan, Jay, and Dylan. Also on tap: * Rants and Raves of the Week (featuring an epic – in length – discussion...

I could easily lead off with some joke about how abstract Last Year at Marienbad is or how much I want to play Nim or what those people standing there like mannequins might have been thinking the whole time this film was made, but frankly, I think we did enough of that on the podcast (see below). Suffice to say, Marienbad is a strange, interesting, boring, mysterious, exciting, beautiful, bizarre film…often times all in the same scene. ...

I believe the proper nomenclature is as follows: *ahem* If you got a problem, yo, we’ll solve it. That’s basically the motto for the Ask the LAMB feature here, a segment that finds its host Jason Soto alternately begging for fun/interesting questions from LAMB members and (eventually) just trolling Yahoo Answers for the truly insane questions. It’s been a personal favorite feature of mine on the site, as it can bring some...

Another year, another 2,000 sequels, reboots and remakes await moviegoers worldwide. From Man of Steel to the delayed Great Gatsby to the delayed G.I. Joe sequel and everything in between. Nick hosts this ep, and was joined by Joel, Jess, Kristen and first-timer Shane as they rattled off their respective most anticipated films for the coming year. Think you can guess which films each participant is most psyched for? Also on tap: * Rants and...

Strap yourselves in. Lindsay, Jessica, Nick, Justin, and Dylan gathered round the campfire to rattle off their Top 5 films of 2012, and it’s an epic. As if that weren’t enough, we even threw in some special awards for key films/scenes/actors/etc. It’s a fun show that covers a surprisingly wide array of films…made even wider with Nick’s compulsion to name every honorable mention in his list of 400 films seen this...

The results are in and the people have spoken! On episode #148 of The LAMBcast , we held our third Actor’s Career Draft, in which Nolahn, Nick, Jay, Todd, and Dylan cycled through Tom Hanks’ filmography, selecting films of his to be on our “teams” for our own mythical film festivals. To make it a bit more challenging, as part of his hosting, Nolahn decided that – from our six-round draft – we’d have to...

The Princess Bride? Watchmen? Dawn of the Dead? Big films, you might say? Night of the Comet can’t hear you. Kristen chose this barely-seen apocalyptic zombie sci-fi-comedy and it tore up the competition. The question is, is it underseen/underloved or justly forgotten? Before we get to the links, here’s the IMDb summary for the film, for those that aren’t familiar with it: “Two pretty high school girls (one a...

Multiple Oscar winner. Box office champion. Bosum Buddy. And now…LAMBcast Career Draft subject. You’re welcome, Tom Hanks! One thing I can say for sure is that, despite starring in fewer films overall (and I’m probably stating the obvious here), Hanks’ career – or at least 30 films’ worth of it – is vastly better than that of our last draft subject, Bruce Willis. In that draft, I think the...
