This flick made a gazillion dollars in its opening weekend and is on track to probably become the number one box office hit of the year – do I really need to introduce it much? You’ve seen it already, and if you haven’t yet, there’s a good chance you won’t until it hits video.
But what you haven’t seen or heard is Jay from Life vs. Film (fresh with a new, streamlined URL!) hosting his first...

As I mention during the show (and for anyone that was paying attention over at the Forums), this episode was initially intended to be split in two. After all, we cover an insane nine (!) films in it. However, life found a way to get in the way and we were forced to do it all in one monstrous ep. So you ought to know that you’re in for a long ride, though considering the number of films discussed, I think we were pretty...
This episode is being posted later than was planned, so let’s get right to it:
Originally, we’d planned to split our Franchise Look-back on the Disney Renaissance films (nine of them!) into two episodes. Unfortunately, scheduling issues forced us to combine them both into one monstrous episode (coming next week). As such, we had a free week and a spontaneous topic arise within the last couple days prior to the recording...
It was a battle for the ages, and it led to a film containing a fair few battles eing the winner. Yes, The Princess Bride took down Primer, this renewing the debate over what should and shouldn’t be a Movie of the Month yet again. Should it shine a light on lesser-known/lesser-seen gems that slipped through the cracks or should it feature timeless classics? If you ask me, the answer leans towards the former but...
I don’t want to say that MOTM poll winner Justin (of Man, I Love Films) did anything improper to not only win the poll but destroy the competition (especially since he’s a friend of mine and writes for my site), but let’s just say that the reaction to his choice of film and the amount of reactions from LAMB members didn’t exactly substantiate the pick. And yet, it’s not as though we on the LAMBcast came up...
It was just a happy coincidence and/or poor (great?) planning that this show came not only just a week after the Vegas meetup episode, but also happened to feature three people (myself, Jason, and Lindsay) that were there for the meetup. So the three of us got to know each other a bit more, but to make it more interesting, we were also joined by Nick P. and Jay. This was an unorthodox show compared to our usual fare, where we’re...
It’s been a busy time around the LAMBcast parts as of late. Academy Award predictions, the recent Nightmare on Elm Street franchise look-back, the upcoming Las Vegas episode. As such, it was nice to kick and just talk about some recent viewings, theatrical or otherwise. On hand for the discussion was Joel, Kristen, Dan, Jay, and Dylan.
Also on tap:
* Rants and Raves of the Week (featuring an epic – in...
Multiple Oscar winner. Box office champion. Bosum Buddy. And now…LAMBcast Career Draft subject. You’re welcome, Tom Hanks!
One thing I can say for sure is that, despite starring in fewer films overall (and I’m probably stating the obvious here), Hanks’ career – or at least 30 films’ worth of it – is vastly better than that of our last draft subject, Bruce Willis. In that draft, I...
“This….is…LAMBpardy!”
Now entering the studio are today’s contestants…
First up is the five-time champion, from Man, I Love Films…Dylan Fields. Dylan like long walks in a mall and dining at Red Lobster. He one day dreams of flying into a tree. Our first challenger is Jason (Jay in LAMBcast world) Cluitt of Life Vs. Film. Jay takes pictures of squirrels in his spare time and once...
[Note: I asked the MOTM Champion Justin if he’d be interested in writing the intro for this post. Here’s what he delivered.]
Every month at the LAMB, we have a poll that establishes our Movie of the Month. The winner is watched and discussed on the LAMBcast by a few of our members. Sometimes the winner that we review together is serious (last month’s silent German film Metropolis),...
