The start of the new year reminds us to finish off the previous year, and that is exactly what this episode of the Lambcast is designed to do. The Traditional Top ten Lists are the subject of this week’s show and we have a combination of guests who joined the live show, and some who sent in their lists to be added to the conversation. Frankly, it is an epic nearly three hours, so make sure you are comfortably seated to take in the show,...
We can’t really keep up with every movie that gets released, but that is especially true in December when big budget holiday releases and specialty Oscar bait, compete for our attention. This week is a free for all, because the six guests and the host, are welcome to talk about any movies that got released in the last six weeks of the year.
We are saving our Top Ten Lists for the next episode, but some of those films might...
You won’t find any bigger fans of the original “Chicken Run” than here on the Lambcast. 200 Episodes ago, it was the MOTM. Tony Cogan and Jay Cluitt both claimed to be the films biggest fan, but it was Tony who pushed the sequel here, over the finish line, to be the new film that we covered this month on the Lambcast. The community chose this over all the other options and the result is here for your...
That’s right my friends, nothing says “Merry Christmas” like a zombie apocalypse. Of course when you add singing and dancing, it really does feel like a Christmas movie, at least that’s what Howard Casner would argue. As the champion of the film, Howard leads the discussion but frankly, the other guests probably played a part in the movie being selected as well. The Vern just covered it on his own podcast and...
We thought we’d add something to the Christmas Season that is a little different this year. Of course there will be a Holiday themed MOTM, but that is next week. This week we are sharing some stories about Christmases Past, Present and Future.
Nicole Ayers, Dave Anderson, Rachel Wagner and Todd Liebenow join guest host Howard Casner in sharing stories about past Christmas Film based gifts and experiences, as...
Technical issues have resulted in the loss of the original post that was scheduled to be published. That means you are now getting a second hand look at the podcast, written on the fly, while the author is fleeing retina scanning spiderbots that are chasing him.
Bubbawheat is the champion of this 2002 collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise. He takes over hosting duties and leads us through a discussion of...
This week we get back to talking about new movies, and it is the time of the year that the cream begins to rise to the top. Director Alexander Payne is a two time Academy Award winning screenwriter, and a three time directing nominee, so when he shows up with a new film, it seems likely to be talked about in the awards season. “The Holdovers” features a cranky history teacher at a remote prep school who is forced to remain on...
The poll will be open for the month of November. Be sure to vote for you favorite slate of films, and go and watch all of the movies you haven’t seen yet from these lists. You will be glad you did.
Don’t let the two Queen Scores, Schwarzenegger Films, Max Von Sydow appearances, Ron Howard Films, Jim Henson Productions, Unicorn...
Another world, another time, in the age of wonder. A thousand years ago, this land was green and good… a lot of fantasy stories start along these lines. Something that was good has been lost and must be found, or something evil is threatening something good. Those somethings often come in the form of dragons, wizards or monsters (and sometimes even a goblin king). This week on the Lambcast, we decided to go to an era of classic fantasy...
In October, everyone’s thoughts turn to mayhem as the horror movie season peaks with with Halloween on October 31. We had our MOTM a couple of weeks ago, but that did not satisfy our need for blood. Like culture vampires, the Lambcast goes in search of horror films in all the bad places.
The rules were simple, everyone had to bring five films to the discussion, one in each of five sub-genres of horror. Nicole Ayers goes...
Most people anticipate a new Martin Scorsese movie, the way an eight year old looks forward to Christmas. We can hardly stand the time it takes to arrive, we want to shake the packages under the tree, and we hope that there will be joy when the gift is opened. Sometimes parents learn that the box is the bigger attraction than what was inside. Is that what happened with “Killers of the Flower Moon? Did Santa deliver, or did we get some...
In a surprise upset, a Comedy/Horror film won the MOTM Poll. and despite calls to the Secretary of State in the Voting Districts, the count was confirmed. “Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein” joins a list of more gruesome fare as the star of our annual Episode devoted to a Halloween Horror Icon.
James Wilson of Blogging by Cinema Light, as the champion of the film. leads a discussion of this movie, delving into...
