I'd love to see a review from you. Please e-mail me. and anyone else that wants to write a blog. <br /><br />Side note; There was talk about doing a Time Bandits 2, but once one of the main stars killed himself, Terry's heart wasn't into it anymore. David Rappaport (The main bandit) attempted to kill himself just before filming an episode of Star Trek TNG and had to be recast on a dime with a different actor. He was later successful in killing himself. <br />Semajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03654310724397596493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10767841.post-81291396390418806512015-03-28T01:56:27.115-04:002015-03-28T01:56:27.115-04:0012 Monkeys - You covered this pretty well; it'...12 Monkeys - You covered this pretty well; it's a masterpiece. So much could be written about this.<br /><br />Time Bandits - How is this not talked about enough? It's such a brilliant film, but obviously aimed at children. Obviously Gilliam thought that this heavy of material could be absorbed by young people. And he was right; but it seems that all audiences missed out on all it had to say.<br /><br />The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus - Also brilliant; I'm glad someone recognizes how brilliant it is. All of the the guest actors (stepping in for Heath Ledger - without a salary, from what I've heard - did a great job at completing the film. Tom Waits was amazing, as always.<br /><br />Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Not mentioned, which is odd for a blog set in Louisville. Maybe the guest blogger isn't from Da 'Ville. But that has to be our greatest piece of non fiction ever written, and the film itself is a masterpiece. Hopefully that never gets left out of Gilliam's works when people hold him to high acclaim.<br /><br />Anyway, I was thankful to see such a wonderful post about Gilliam's work because he is such an incredible director.<br /><br />BTW, this is Nick posting.
