    Poll Results; New Polls
    Well it’s good to know that people didn’t participate in the LION Awards or LAMB Devours the Oscars due to forgetting. The majority of poll participants say they did participate in LIONs and Devours. A tie for second place were the new LAMBs who weren’t around during the features and the folks who didn’t see enough films to participate. It’s good to know that only four LAMBs claimed no interest at all.

    As for the...

    LAMB Casting: Magnolia (VOTING TIME)

    Well with 45% of the vote, we easily pre-crowned The King’s Speech as Best Picture before the Academy. Sucks to be The Fighter without a single supporter. Of course in hindsight, I realize I should’ve included a sister poll which would’ve asked which film you thought should win also. I’ll remedy that mistake next year. Now for new polls…plural. Participation was way down in this...
