Three movies for you this week. Dunkirk, as you might have guessed, is quite rightfully receiving a great deal of praise, and I couldn’t be happier about that. It’s now #2 on our leaderboard for the year, so hurrah! There’s also good news for the apparently-much-better-than-Rough-Night Girls Trip, so yay! The third movie is Valerian, and it’s perhaps one of the most divisive films of...

Hello everyone, just sending out a reminder that I’m still looking for pieces by you on the work of Steven Soderbergh, along with a quick announcement of a change for this month. Since I was delayed in putting up this reminder, along with allowing more time for you to send in any pieces you’ve done on Logan...

There’s been a murder! Several, in fact, and someone on this very podcast did it…

Fear not, there’s no detective work required to seek out this show, in which we covered the most recent movie of the month, arguably the greatest board game adaptation yet, Clue. Jay was joined by the movies champion, Sean, as well as big fans Jeanette, Nick and Todd to discuss the characters, weapons and numerous...

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...

This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Sean Connery.

We received a total of 77 reviews for 34 films that Sean Connery had parts in. Plus 2 general posts about James Bond

That’s quite an impressive amount.

Let’s see what the members of the LAMB community thought of Sean Connery’s career:

Due to some upcoming scheduling issues, the October horror special movie of the month poll is being run earlier than usual, at the same time as the September one. All this means is more things to vote for now! You can vote at the bottom of the page. but first here’s the list of candidates:

Possession (1981) [Jess Manzo, French Toast Sunday]

Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983) [Kristen...

Before anyone says anything about the post title, I know that monkeys and apes are different things, but when there’s a simian-centric movie out the same week as a be-careful-what-you-wish-for horror, well there’s only one direction I’m going in pun-wise. So without further ado, here’s what the LAMB community had to say about War For The Planet Of The Apes and Wish Upon:

War For...

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:

I’m thirty now! Damn. On the Lambcast we recently celebrated my then-impending now-past 30th birthday by drafting teams that are the same age as me, as in they were all released in 1987, and now it’s time to vote on those teams! The poll is at the bottom of the page, but first; the teams!

Richard’s Team: Robocop, The Untouchables, The Living Daylights, The Hidden,...

When planning the Lambcast schedule, it’s now always easy to tell which films are going to be big summer tent-poles, and which will be less than noteworthy, so sometimes we’ll talk about Dunkirk, and other times we’ll look at The Dark Tower.

Robert filled in as host alongside Jeanette, Howard and Damien to discuss the latest Stephen King adaptation, amongst many other things. Also on tap: Rants...

Two very different movies for you this week. One is a big superhero sequel/reboot that could well be the best entry within its franchise, and the other predominantly features Casey Affleck wearing a sheet, and includes an interminably slow scene in which Rooney Mara eats a pie. I know which one I’d rather watch. Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about Spider-Man: Homecoming and A Ghost Story:
