Before the flood of new movies starts in the summer season, we have a few special programs to offer you. This is #4 in our series “Off the Beaten Path”
The goal is to find some films that are not typically talked about. Sometimes the reason is that the movie is a cult film that only appeals to a specialized audience. Maybe it is a film from a bygone era that was never seen as a classic, but has something to recommend...
Originally kast as the klueless kharacter who has to have all of the plot and scenario explained to him, Richard was dropped from the production and Howard Kasner replaced him in the lineup. While not quite as klueless, Howard does manage to get a batch of nerdy fans thru a discussion of the latest movie based on a videogame to come down the chute.
Howard was joined in the lineup by Kameron Kanachki, Lisa Leaheey,...
Our bi-annual visit to the library of lists, yields five distinct sets of interest on this week’s show. Richard is joined by Heather Baxendale Walsh, David Brook, Stephen Palmer and Rebecca Sharp on a round robin dicusiion of some interesting movie topics.
Do you like books, well we have a list that gives you a chance to think about what kind of movie your favorite book would make. How about road trip films?...
Death and murder and violence are all over these movies, but you will hardly notice at all. There is no bloodshed, there is usually a musical interlude, and the most important element of the films is not the plot but the characters. Howard Casner championed “The Thin Man” series to victory in the latest MOTM poll and he takes over as host for our discussion of these classic films.
Howard and Richard are...
The movies in 2020 suffered a significant blow with the pandemic shutting down theaters around the world. Many films were held back but a number carried on with streaming access. Those conditions produced these results, films that are admired but are they worthy?
MovieRob takes the reins as host this week. Since he has been our key man on the Oscars for several years now, it makes sense that he knows what we are...
This week we have an epic battle for the Super duper heavyweight championship of the world. Two Iconic film creations face off in a fight that has been set up by three preceding films, and a hundred older films, cartoons and comic books.
In one corner, we have the old man of giant monster movies. He has been around since 1933, and he comes to us fighting out of Skull Island. Well over 800lbs, he was King long before a...
Are you ready for the most chaotic game of Lambpardy in the show’s sordid history? Strap in, this one’s a ride!
Three Lambpardy veterans – including two former champions – are here to battle it out, and with Dylan, Kai and Heather in the competitors’ seats, this was always going to be a raucous show, but Jay’s questions didn’t exactly help out! Who will win? Can anyone truly win at this...
Our best laid schemes often go awry, and this week, the planned project fell apart but have no fear, something good for you is still on the plate for this week. Originally this was going to be a bonus episode but it now fits nicely in the calendar and it’s great to share it with you.
Eric Friedmann is a blogger who has taken his work into a new medium with a series of books that most of the audience here...
It’s time to vote for the next Movie of the Month! As always April is our franchise special, and we’ve got eight film franchises for you to pick between. The winner of the poll will be discussed on an upcoming Lambcast. The poll is at the bottom of the page but first, here are the options:
The Thin Man...
As we roll through 2021, one thing becomes obvious, the Movie of the Month is going to be a good film. So far we have had three movies, all over 50 years old and if you check out the Lambscores, It’s unlikely you will find a higher rated trio of films.
Speaking of trios, that’s what we have joining Richard this week for the discussion. David Brook, Todd Liebenow join the film’s champion, James...
Eight years ago, the Lambcast did a draft of Tom Hanks movies, which was probably great, but eight years is an eternity in modern social media so we are taking another swing at this.
Let’s face it, Hanks is a prolific actor who continues to work at a top level. It makes sense that there are more than a dozen new films of his that we can include in the draft, many of which contain award worthy performances. We...
A new movie in theaters! It’s a March Miracle, or is it? This week our podcasters explore the long delayed Science Fiction YA film “Chaos Walking” starring Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland.
In a world…,(how long has it been since you heard that phrase?) where your inner thoughts are available for all to see and hear, and there are no women, a young girl appears and adds to the Chaos.
This week...
