War is upon us in the latest Lambcast, as we take on the film that sees the apes taking on the humans once again in the battle for world domination.

Robert Zerbe is in the hosting chair, and was joined by Rebecca Sharp, DJ Valentine, Mario Brown and Howard “The Naysayer” Casner to monkey around with the latest edition to the Apes franchise.

Also on tap: Rants and Raves of the Week and a game of Last Lamb...

Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this reignited series is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who have been entertaining us all for so many years.

I plan to try and focus on an actor or actress every month who has a birthday in that given...

When Cars 3 was announced, if you’d told me that upon it’s released its Lambscore would be the highest of five movies that same week, I doubt I’d have believed you. 3.14/5 isn’t exactly an incredible score, but it’s a great deal better than many might expect based on the disappointing Cars 2. Anyway, here’s the scores for Cars 3, All Eyez On Me, 47 Meters Down,...

This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Natalie Wood.

We received a total of 42 reviews for 15 films that Natalie Wood had parts in. Plus 2 general posts about her life and work.

That’s quite an impressive amount.

Let’s see what the members of the LAMB community thought of Natalie Wood’s career:

With Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk just around the corner, this month’s Movie of the Month could well be considered a companion piece to it, as this week we’re delving into Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan.

As the movie’s champion Rob led the discussion, and was joined by super fan and regular host Jay, relative newcomers to the film Jess and Damien, and absolute first-timer...

The Vern is reunited with cohost Kristen Lopez for a brand new episode of The Film Pasture Podcast.  They are joined by fellow film critic and now a screenwriter, Ruth Maramis to talk about top 5 women directors.  Ruth runs the site FlixChatter and  is the writer of a brand new short film that is about love lost set in the world of theater called Hearts Want.  You can help support...

It’s time to vote for the next Movie of the Month! You can vote at the bottom of the page. but first here’s the list of candidates:

Blue Thunder (1983) [Richard Kirkham, Kirkham A Movie A Day]

Clue (1985) [Sean Homrig, The 1001 Movie Podcast]

Midnight Run (1988) [Todd Liebenow, Forgotten Films]

My Girl (1991)...

There’s an unintentional connection between the three movies up for today’s Lambscores – they all have very dark, almost-but-not-quite black-and-white posters. Could this be because they all have an element of horror to them? Probably. That’s more likely than all the poster-printing companies having run out of magenta ink, so let’s go with it. Anyway, here are the thoughts of the LAMB community on It Comes At...

Whilst we never got to see Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man, the silver lining on that shrinking-and-growing-again cloud is we got to see Baby Driver, the film he’s been planning for around two decades, that  little bit sooner.

Jay Cluitt was joined by Kristen Lopez, Nikhat Zhara and Courtney Small to discuss the action-crime-musical-comedy-romance-thriller, it’s glorious soundtrack, and just how much...

Hello everyone, it’s time again to announce the director that will be featured for Director’s Chair. This month, after having watched Ran for my June Blind Spot, I feel that Akira Kurosawa would be a good choice for Director’s Chair.

Now, Akira Kurosawa is one of the key figures responsible for...

Hello everyone, it’s once again time to show off all of the posts that you have sent me for the films of Richard Linklater. I got a good amount of links this month and I thank everyone who sent in features of Linklater’s films. With that said, here are the posts:

As you should already know by now, Natalie Wood (RIP) is our actor of the month in the newly-revived Acting School 101 feature, being hosted by me, MovieRob. Alongside the monthly blogathon held here on the LAMB site, I will also be hosting a monthly podcast episode devoted to the actor and their roles, and wouldn’t you know it but that’s this very show here!

I was joined by Kristen Lopez from the Journeys in Classic Film...
