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…
It was high time we tried something a little new, so for episode 126, we eschewed our traditional “feature discussion” in favor of several mini-discussions, in which each participant brought a topic to the table, giving us a wide variety of conversations. On hand was your Shepherd Joel, Alan, Bubbawheat,…
I was going to wait a few days to post this as a means to incentivize people to listen to the show prior to seeing and voting on our picks, but with the LAMMY nominations included in episode #117, I’m not exactly sure I really need to worry about that. …
Should I even bother to pretend that more than half of this show’s audience cares about anything other than the fact that it includes the LAMMY nominations? Let’s not pretend. So yes, while we’d love it if you stuck around and became a lifelong fan of the show (and of…
Stunning visuals. Parent/child dynamics. A controversial director pulling an award-winning performance out of his lead.

Yes, I’m still behind, and I apologize. This episode is posted a few days late and I’ve got to get the next one up in time for Saturday’s MOTM. The pressure! 
Anyway, episode 87 was one of our increasingly rare “one-off” episodes where host Nick talked to Courtney, Alan,…
In honor of the recent Director’s Chair blog-a-thon celebrating his catalog, the latest LAMBcast takes a look at the work of David Cronenberg, film by film. First-time host James walked Joel, Dan Heaton and first-time LAMBcaster Alan through the eccentric Canadian’s film, and it might surprise you to learn which…
World in Film Blogathon A list of seven movies: one that is filmed, set, or produced in each continent. So, the list should include one film each from Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North and South America. Include a sentence or two explaining why it was picked (and “it was…
