"Lass is More" on "Grandma" and Grandmothers
It is wholly unintentional, I assure you, but today’s podcast again has to do with love. Seriously, as we approach Valentine’s Day I would have tried to avoid it if I had thought about it, but I didn’t and hear… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Watches "Crimson Peak" but not on a Massive TV
How much does the size of one’s television influence their enjoyment of what they’re watching? Surely it plays some role. The room one is watching in plays a role, the seat one is utilizing does as well. The less there… Read More ›
"Lass is More" on Relationships, "Chi-Raq," "Meet the Patels," & "Burnt"
It seems incumbent as February rolls around that we talk a little bit about relationships and there are three different films hitting Blu-ray/DVD today that work into that discussion beautifully — “Chi-Raq,” “Meet the Patels,” and “Burnt.” These movies look… Read More ›
"Lass is More" on "Straight Outta Compton" and "That Could Never Happen to Me"
Funnily enough (in my world anyway this is funny), the last piece on this blog is a rather negative review of an Ice Cube-starring movie. Now, for the podcast, we have a rather good movie about Ice Cube. Yup, on… Read More ›
"Lass is More" on "Sicario" and Incremental Change
Welcome to the new year! Here we are, 2016. A new year, one full of new chances, new opportunity, and change all around us. Everyone is all about change this time of year. Everyone is all about turning over a… Read More ›
“Lass is More” Looks at Spectacle and "The Walk"
For our last episode of the year, we’re taking a look at spectacle and wether a movie is “worth” seeing on the big screen or the small. I’m of two minds about this. First, I absolutely understand where people are… Read More ›
Lass is More on "Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation" and "Ant-Man"
Two movies which Josh truly enjoyed this year are “Ant-Man” and “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.” They are also movies which few, himself included, may have pegged as creatively successful while they were still in production. There have been greater… Read More ›
“Lass is More” Talks Acting with "Dementia" star Gene Jones
As much as I may regularly say this, I think today’s episode is really fantastic. It features Gene Jones, the star of “Dementia,” which is currently in theaters. Listening to the show you will hear an actor talk about the… Read More ›
Lass is More is Disappointed with "Good Dinosaur," but not "Minions"
Sometimes it feels like Pixar has sprinkled magic dust over our memories. Their name seems synonymous with great animated fare, but as of late they’ve been more miss than hit. Yes, “Inside Out” is fantastic, an utterly brilliant movie but… Read More ›
“Lass is More” Hates Guilty Pleasures but loves "Bad Boys"
We at “Lass is More” hate the term “guilty pleasure.” We find it repugnant. Have the courage of your conviction. If you want to watch nothing but “Real Housewives” for the rest of your life, stand up and say you… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Finds Comfort in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"
Let’s face it, the news from the world hasn’t been great as of late (when is it?). And movies provide one way of taking break from all the awful that is out there. I don’t advocate sticking your head in… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Revisits Character with "Before we go" & "The End of the Tour"
On Friday, Lass is More spent its time on character and discussing the importance of character in film. But, naturally, a few minutes on character isn’t quite enough to tell the full story, so we’re looking at it again this… Read More ›
"Lass is More" on "The Professional" and "The Fifth Element"
On the surface, these two movies look pretty different. Sure they both have Luc Besson as the man at the wheel and they both feature Gary Oldman, but one of these movies is a small story about a small-time hitman… Read More ›
"Lass is More" on Legos, "Aladdin," and "Inside Out"
We have a big discussion today on Lass is More as we look into things that are meant for kids but great for adults too. Actually, as I’ve said before (and totally mention in the podcast), all the best kids… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Offers one More Look at Horror
Well, Halloween is tomorrow and apparently there were some folks out there not quite thrilled with my take at a horror discussion earlier in the month. Consequently, I’ve gone and picked out three other horror recommendations… and this time they… Read More ›
"Lass is More," "Jurassic World," "Tomorrowland," and the Apocalypse
Today’s Lass is More looks at the end times, or at least an end times or two postulated in a couple of this summer’s crop of blockbusters that have recently arrived on Blu-ray and DVD. I think it’s actually pretty… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Delves into "Dope" and "Pixels"
This week’s “Lass is More” minisode takes a gander at two recent blu-ray releases, “Dope” and “Pixels.” I don’t want to give too much away here about what I’m going to say when you click below to listen, but I’ll… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Gets the "Wabbit" at New York Comic-Con
Yesterday I wrote a little about New York Comic-Con and my general amusement with the entire affair. Today, I have one of the things we were able to record while there, a series of discussions for “Lass is More” with… Read More ›
