Marvel: ANT-MAN and the WASP
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Tinsel & Tine Guests on the Popular Podcast THE LAMBcast – ANT-MAN and the WASP After writing a blog for almost a decade, I came to the conclusion that talking about movies is more fun than writing about movies. But also having maintained a blog for all these years makes me know for sure that I would never want to host my own podcast, not unless I had a lot of behind the scenes help, both technically and marketing wise.

I want the Asgardian light to be especially slanty and dramatic in this little gazebo here and I want Hemmy’s pecs to look absolutely humongous. Got that? I mean I want those suckers to look huge. And I don’t care if this body shot has nothing to do with the story. That’s irrelevant. This is Hemmy we’re talking about.
