    LAMBCAST 229 MOST ANTICIPATED MOVIES FOR THE REST OF 2014

    Bloody hell, it’s August! Who let that happen?

    That can only mean one thing; the year is well over halfway through, which means it’s time to update our Most Anticipated Movies lists, looking at what’s to come in the upcoming awards season, along with the tail end of the summer blockbusters, and the regular horror bunch that arrives every October for some inexplicable reason.

    Host Jay Cluitt was joined...

    LAMBCAST #226 TAXI DRIVER MOTM

     

    Martin Scorsese has a lot of classic movies under his belt, but you could argue that Taxi Driver was his first. IMDb describes it as “A mentally unstable Vietnam war veteran works as a night-time taxi driver in New York City where the perceived decadence and sleaze feeds his urge for violent action, attempting to save a preadolescent prostitute in the process,” but is there more to it than...

    LAMBCAST #224 WHATCHA BEEN WATCHIN’ LATELY?

    It’s time to talk about movies again! You know, like we do every week. Host Jay Cluitt was joined by his co-host Robert Zerbe, the LAMB’s shepherd, Joel Burman, Kristen Lopez and Pete Conway to recommend – or not – a movie they’ve seen lately.

    This time around we’ve got an American classic, a couple of new releases – one mainstream, one less so – a recent action comedy sequel and...

    LAMBCAST #222 BOOGIE NIGHT MOTM

    So it seems you people like listening to us talking about sex, what with last month’s winner being Shame, a movie focused on sex addiction, and this month’s winner being Boogie Nights, which is all about the porn industry in the 1970s and ’80s. So be it.

    Robert Zerbe was handed the hosting reigns for this show, and he was joined by regular host Jay Cluitt, Lindsay Street, MOTM champion Jess Manzo and newcomer...

    LAMBCAST #221 X-MEN DAYS OF FUTURE PAST

    The first episode of the Lambcast’s first unofficial spin-off podcast is here, it’s time for Jay & Robert Talk Time Travel! You see, Robert and Jay are big fans of time travel movies (go back and listen to episode 201 on Timecop if you want proof), so whenever the occasion arises that we can talk about this sub-genre, you can guarantee we’ll take it. In this instance, we’re talking about the seventh and latest...

    LAMBCAST #219 LAMBPARDY!

    “This… is… Lambpardy!”

    That’s right folks, it’s time for another edition of the Lambcast’s totally original and not at all ripped off movie-themed game show, Lambpardy!

    Returning champion Robert has won far too many times, so host Jay brought in a couple of ringers in the forms of Bubbawheat and former champion Dylan Fields to bring him down. Were they successful, or did Robert defeat...

    LAMBCAST #205 THE WILD BUNCH MOTM

    It’s been a while since we’ve had the chance to talk about a critically acclaimed film as the movie of the month, what with recent months delivering the likes of Timecop, Cocktail and Demolition Man, so it was something of a relief that, thanks to Will from Exploding Helicopter, we got to discuss Sam Peckinpah’s 1969 classic western The Wild Bunch.

    It was only fitting that the most American of movie genres had...

    LAMBCAST #201: TIMECOP MOTM


    Jean Claude Van Damme! Time travelling! Kicking things! This month’s Movie of the Month champion is not what you’d necessarily call a “good” film, but it certainly provoked an entertaining discussion covering the career of JCVD, the ramifications of time travel and whether or not the same matter can share the same space (it can… but it can’t).…

    “This….is…LAMBpardy!”

    Now entering the studio are today’s contestants…

    First up is our NEW returning champion, Robert of To The Escape Hatch, who won impressively over our prior champ, Nick Powell.  Was that a fluke or is he the real deal?  We’ll find out this week, as he takes on first-time player Matt of Simplistic Reviews, as well as returning player Nick Rehak of French Toast...

    LAMBCAST #189: MACHETE KILLS

    To be completely honest, an episode devoted to Machete‘s sequel was probably not needed.  I put it on the schedule largely due to nostalgic reasons, as we had an early LAMBcast episode devoted to the first film that was great fun for all involved, and I figured that the participants of this show would perhaps have an equally good time with Robert Rodriguez’s grindhouse follow-up.  Did they, and/or would you have a good...

    LAMBCAST #186: MOST ANTICIPATED FOR THE REST OF 2013

    Fall officially kicked off on September 22nd, and while the prestige film fare might not arrive simultaneously, we all know that the awards season (and the year’s second blockbuster season) come fairly quickly afterwards.  As such, film buffs salivate over all of the potentially great films set to arrive from October through New Year’s.  Here at the LAMBcast, it’s become an annual tradition to look forward and...

    MOTM/LAMBCAST #184: DEMOLITION MAN

    Is it a silly action flick with a quasi-serious message or a serious action flick made silly by two decades of aged cheese?  Is it really from 1993 or is it the last 80s film?  Is it live or is it Memorex?  These questions and many, many more surround the 1993 Stallone and Snipes showdown Demolition Man, a film that deals with the pain of being aware of the passage of 40 years whilst being able to experience nothing but that...
