It’s back for a fourth year (and just a little bit late)!
If you’re a fan of sports at all, or have ever worked in an office, there’s a good to great chance that you’re aware of the phenomenon that strikes America this time of year. That’s right – it’s March Madness, the 64 (er, 68) team college basketball tournament that drains efficiency from thousands of companies as workers kill their time...
Don’t forget, I’m putting the call out for links from you on the Alien franchise to include with the LAMBcast post for our Alien episode. The episode/post will be up this Sautrday, March 10th. So, any reviews or features you might have written on any of the Alien films (even the relatively lousy AVP films, though we didn’t discuss them much on the LAMBcast) are welcome.
Send them by 6:00am Pacific on March...
In fact, we have TWO winners!
I don’t know if my scoring system for this tournament is ingenious or idiotic, but suffice it to say that it’s all in Excel and is dependent on formulas. Makes it great and easy in that I don’t have to manually add anything…but there’s one major flaw in the setup: it’s dependent on everyone copying & pasting and/or using the exact lettering that I have for the...
We have a winner! Some six months later, the spring/summer box office season can finally be declared finished, and with it, the March to Box Office Madness 2011 game.
As usual, it was a tight race all the way down to the wire, as we had four individuals that absolutely crushed this. But it did come down to one winner, and that person did so by scoring a whopping 72 out of a possible 76 points, correctly predicting all but one...

Hello everybody, Travis McCollum of the Movie Encyclopedia here with another edition of Trailer Talk Thursday where I bring you the latest and greatest trailers to hit the silver screen. Today we will be covering two highly anticipated remakes coming out later this year: True Grit, the remake of an old John Wayne movie (which itself was an adaptation of a book by the same name) and The Tempest, a remake (and in some ways a re-imagining) of...

The results are in, and the LAMB has picked its Top 10 Comedies (for background on this, click here). There were a total of 36 voters, with their votes spread out amongst 196 films. It’s no shock, then, that a number of films that earned even one or two first-place votes were left out of the Top 10. Anyway, I’m sure you’ve stopped reading by now and are checking out the selections below, so I’ll just shut up...

(Welcome to the second official face-off of Sirens of the LAMBs! If you have not done so already, please read the previous fight and cast your vote! Remember to base it on the narratives and not just a bias!)
——–
Warning: The following two narratives are slightly disturbing, just in case you have an unnaturally weak stomach when it comes to reading about/imagining torturous acts. Also, they hold spoilers...
Finally, the new LAMB event can begin. While awaiting fellow LAMBs to send in their articles/narratives, let me take this time to share with everybody what is going on.
This will work like a 1-on-1 fight between two movie characters of a specific theme. This theme? Badass Femme Fatales. The ladies who can seduce you into a quiet place only to kill and/or torture you on the spot. I also like to call these ladies the...
