They say the sixth time’s the charm, right? Proof that perseverance pays off, Ryan Fernand of Lord of the Films submitted Children of Men to the MOTM poll once again for December and it finally paid off. Then, after all that time, it wasn’t even close, as his choice had more than twice as many votes as the next closest film. The 2006 sci-fi drama starring Clive Owen was pretty much universally loved by critics and movie...
What’s better than one feature discussion? How about five of ’em? We revisited something done a few months back (to successful results, I’d say) with “Bring A Discussion Topic,” in which each LAMBcaster comes to the table with a question or pressing matter to them. We then spend a few minutes discussing each item before moving on to the next, giving a good variety of thoughts to the show, with the added...
“This….is…LAMBpardy!”
Once more, Kai puts on his Alex Trebek hat to play host for our version of Jeopardy. Back in the champ chair is Dylan, this time challenged by Justin and Nick R.. Did they take his title? Listen and find out!
LAMBpardy episopdes are a semi-regular feature of the LAMBcast, so if you’d like to be a player in the future, keep an eye out over at the Forums, as demand is high...
News flash: unless you’re a character actor with a long filmography or your name happens to be Sam Jackson, odds are good that if you’re selected as the subject of one of these career drafts, we’re gonna make your career look pretty bad. You wouldn’t think that rattling off 15 movies (much less 30) from a 30-year career without getting to anything too embarrassing would be all that difficult, but clearly, it is, a...
Neil LaBute’s fifth feature film (following such indie hits as In the Company of Men and Your Friends and Neighbors) came and went pretty quietly in 2003, despite featuring such current luminaries as Paul Rudd and Rachel Weisz (as well as Gretchen Mol). Based on LaBute’s play of the same name, it follows the pattern he set of focusing on gender dynamics, featuring brutal, often funny dialogue and low...
Bubbawheat here with my own take on a feature run very well in the past by Andrew. I wanted to be able to showcase some of the members of the LAMB here with their own words and what better way than by asking them a few questions. I’ll be starting out by talking with some of this year’s Lammy winners, and in the future I plan on highlighting some forgotten LAMBs that are still active, but haven’t been around here in a while....
For the 121st LAMBcast, we take a look at the 13th film from Pixar, Brave. Dylan didn’t get to see the flick in time, so Sebastian returned to the hosting chair for the second time, and was joined by The Vern, Max, Nick Rehak and first-timer Erik of The Movie Review Warehouse.
Also on tap:
* Rants and Raves of the Week
* Last LAMB Standing
A few notes:
* The show can be found, of course,...
What I do is list a site; you critique it. But here’s the catch: to induce the most honest reactions, don’t leave the comment using your normal alias/login – instead, go anonymous, and be as brutally honest (or complimentary) as you wish to be. Also, be specific, and naturally, don’t be rude. If I deem anything inappropriate, I’ll have no problem deleting the comment.
Site: French Toast Sunday
LAMB#:...
French Toast Sunday is another great example of a site that has slowly climbed the LAMBoard ladder and deservingly landed on top. I’ll make sure to follow them on twitter for both june and july for being so slow with this update!…
...From the onset, this seemed like a bad idea – one podcast, eight people. Our previous high for participants on a LAMBcast was six, and my general line of thinking is that any more than five leaves the potential for listener overload, particularly if the listener is not familiar with all of the voices that they’re hearing. But the thought of throwing seven fans of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World against one hater was just...
From Steven Spielberg to Joe Johnston, from Jeff Goldblum to Vince Vaughn, from the Park itself to San Diego (thank god that music was there the whole time, right?) – it’s another franchise look-back here on the LAMBcast. Dan Heaton sat in the host chair for the first time, leading the discussion of the trilogy, and was joined by Fogs, Lindsay, Mike and Ryan.

“This….is…LAMBpardy!”
Once again, Kai puts on his Alex Trebek hat (that’s a beautiful visual if you know the man) to play host for our version of Jeopardy. Back in the champ chair is Dylan, being challenged by the two head honcho (honchettes?) of French Toast Sunday, Lindsay and Jess. Did they take his title? Listen and find out!
