In honor of the two filmmaker’s retrospectives that are showing at the famous The Silent Movie Theater in Los Angeles, courtesy of The Cinefamily, This Guy Over Here will be dedicated to the Tramp and Chaplin’s other colorful characters as well as M. Hulot and the brilliance of Jacques Tati.

If you have any articles on either filmmaker that you wish to share in this blog-a-thon, send all links over to thisguy@thisguyoverhere.com and they will be posted periodically throughout the month.

LAMBcast #17

Back so soon? Yes, we LAMBcasters have been a busy group lately, haven’t we?

We now present you with a “special” episode in which we count down some of our favorite foreign (language) films (our primary language being English…kind of). I think I can safely say that of all the LAMBcasts yet, this is the one you don’t want to miss. On hand were a gang of fools, from Nick Jobe to Mike Mendez to Jason Soto to This Guy and myself. We laughed, we cried, we broadened our horizons. That’s followed up by a couple games of Last LAMB Standing and some Trailer Talk, in which we discussed Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and the epic Weird Al biopic.

It should also be noted that this one’s a bit bluer than usual, so use those headphones if there be kids around.

If you’re interested, you too can be a LAMBcaster - we love new blood! For more information on the LAMBcast, check out the topic at the LAMB Forums.

As usual, the music, as provided royalty-free by Kevin MacLeod’s Incompetech website, is the bomb. Big thanks to Kevin for providing this service.

You can find us on iTunes; just go to the Podcasts section and search for “LAMBcast.” And hey - while you’re on iTunes, why don’t you go ahead and either rate the LAMBcast or write a review of it. Better yet, do both! It’ll help us get noticed by the overlords at Apple and earn worldwide fame…or something like that.

Oh, and Happy April Fool’s Day.

While not the longest podcasting session, host Jason Soto presided over what turned out to be the longest single episode of the LAMBcast (the other one was so long it was split into two), and all because of a fat guy named Kevin. Jason was joined by Nick, Tom, This Guy, and Tom’s countryman (and future LAMB, I’m told) Brett as they dissect the works and wisdom of the Clerks auteur. Stay tuned after the credits once more for some more bonus material, this time in the guise of the infamous “Lost” Last Man Standing game.

LAMB #381 - This Guy Over Here: The Best Films of the 2000s.

October 29th, 2009 / Movies Blogs, This Guy Over Here: The Best Films of the 2000s., new LAMB

URL: http://thisguyoverhere.com/
Site Name: This Guy Over Here: The Best Films of the 2000s.
Categories: Reviews (or as I call them, ‘appreciations’), Editorials
Rating: PG-13, rare choice language and seldom adult themes.

What is the main focus of your site?
To seek out the best films of the 2000s. Since I’m only one person though, I realize it’s more of a favorites site than a ‘best of’ site.

What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
I feel like this is a canned answer, but I’m really doing it for myself. I’d be doing it even if weren’t online (in fact, I do in numerous capacities.) I just love writing about movies, and eventually when I feel I’ve seen the amount of movies necessary to write my eBook, I will.

Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers are the students?
I would love discussions on the films I write about. I’ve only had a small amount of interactivity though.

How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
My current site for about three months, but I’ve had movie blogs in the past dating back to 2006. I update the current site twice a day.

Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Wall-E, Let the Right One In, The Fall

How did you hear about the LAMB?
http://filmforthesoul.blogspot.com/

Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that’s not listed above.
The site is pretty self explanatory. Just a note, I do intend on expanding to other decades once I’m done with the 2000s. I also am splintering off into genres, like: http://thisguyoverhere.com/horror/ and plan to do so with romance, holiday & family, and comedies.
