What’s the deal with perfect ratings? How important should a potential partner’s taste in (and interest in) film be to you, the film lover and/or blogger? And seriously, what’s the deal with all the superhero fare in the 21st century? These topics and many more (ok, maybe not many more, but many more tangents, such as Jay’s usage of the term “move house”) are brought to the table in yet another...
The Film Pasture Eps 11: Running A Multi-Contributor Blog This month The Film Pasture looks at what it takes to run a multi-contributor blog. I’m joined by JD from InSession Film and Matt from Simplistic Reviews to discuss the highs and lows of running a multi-contributor podcast or blog. Enjoy the show and subscribe to the feed by clicking here!…

Pretty sure I haven’t seen an IMDb summary recently that makes the film it’s talking about sound much worse than this one:
“Billy and Sydney think they’re the best basketball hustlers in town, so when they join forces, nothing can stop them, except each other. To add to their problems, Billy owes money and is being chased by a pair of gangster types.“
White Men Can’t Jump,...
“If you got a problem, yo, we’ll solve it.”
That’s the motto for the Ask the LAMB feature here, a segment that finds its host Jason Soto trolling Yahoo Answers for truly insane questions. It can bring some seriously credible answers from a wide variety of film bloggers. It can also bring some seriously funny answers. Occasionally, it does both.
And so, Jason brings to you the third edition of this...
If you’ve listened to the LAMBcast for any length of time, you’ve probably thought a time or two that your humble host Dylan hasn’t seen anything! Well, I’m here to tell you that that’s kind of by design – being the guy that picks the topics, I often use the show to fill my own gaps, particularly when it comes to these franchise look-backs. What better way to force myself (so to speak) into...
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...
It’s easy to get into routines and take things for granted, and over the course of over four years now of running the LAMBcast, I’m certainly guilty of that. Here’s the short version: the LAMBcast wants you to appear on upcoming episodes!
Here’s the long version. My routine is as such: every 8-10 weeks, I unveil (so to speak) what the topics for the next batch of episodes are going to be. ...
Primer was released in 2004 and it’s safe to say that it didn’t exactly set the world on fire. When the receipts had all been counted, it had made a little less than half a million. The thing is, when your film costs $7,000 and makes that much (combined with the growing success of Netflix), people start to pay attention. Word of mouth spreads, talk of brilliance and complexity abounds, and the next thing you know,...
The Film Pasture Eps 10: My First Time Hey there Lambs, it’s Lindsay from French Toast Sunday coming to you with an all new episode of The Film Pasture! For my first episode hosting the podcast I’m joined by Kristen from Journeys in Classic Film and Brad from Picking Brains to talk all about out first times. That’s right, we’re talking about podcasting, blogging and other movie related firsts....
Recently on the LAMBcast, we had a very intricate, duly-researched, overly complex fantasy draft involving character actors (North American only). You’ve had some time to listen to and digest the amazing choices that Jay, Dan, Nick P. and myself made, and now it’s time to separate the Buscemis from the Turturros (well, except that neither was deemed draftable on the show – have a listen to find out why). Anyway,...
The insanity of the Nic Cage Draft has finally left us, so we return to our regular “draft” programming, taking a left turn away from choosing the films of a particular star and instead choosing our favorite character actors. Now, as I mention a number of times on the show, doing such a category was very tricky, what with attempting to define who belongs in that category (are they still there?, etc.). So what did we do? Made...
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...
