This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes tackle "12 Monkeys", this season's Audience Choice episode and a film that, despite its reputation, just doesn't click for either of them.Mike Butler went in hoping his opinion might change this time around. As a big fan of "Brazil", he wanted to connect with Terry Gilliam's mix of sci-fi and absurdism. Unfortunately, his feelings haven't shifted since first seeing it decades ago. Both Mike Field and Butler find the performances from Bruce Willis and especially Brad Pitt pushed too far into manic territory, making it hard to buy into the story.They also struggle with the central relationships and logic of the film. The idea that the doctor would go along with Willis at all, let alone develop romantic feelings for him, feels completely unbelievable. Tonally, the movie seems stuck between wanting to be a serious science fiction story and an absurdist Gilliam nightmare, and it never settles on what it actually wants to be.While they do appreciate the production design, props, and costumes used for the future sequences, the rest of the film falls flat for them. Still, with "12 Monkeys" being so well regarded by many, the Mikes openly acknowledge that this might be one of those "it's me, not you" moments.

What's more Christmas-y than celebrating one's birthday? Brian just so happens to share the same birthday with someone else we might know, on Christmas Day, many, many moons ago. It seems almost to explain what this film is, because who hasn't seen this and enjoyed it? I mean, it was controversial upon its release and was banned by many councils, even to this day, but who hasn't heard or seen LIFE OF BRIAN at this point? Regardless, you've heard of MONTY PYTHON, and this is easily their best film. This film gave us "big nose", the "ex leper", and "what have the Romans ever done for us?" Do yourself a favor and watch this. It's an absolute treat for this Festive Season!
Legendary auteur Terry Gilliam (Brazil, Time Bandits, The Fisher King, Monty Python & the Holy Grail) directs this time-bending sci-fi thriller focusing on one man's unique journey to the past to save the future. That man is James Cole (Bruce Willis) who is currently living in a dystopian 2035 so ravaged by disease that no humans can actually live on the surface of the Earth so he has been tasked by scientists to travel back to the 1990's in Philadelphia to pinpoint the very beginning of a fatal virus which would eventually spread and wipe out most of the Earth's population. As would be expected, several complications occur along the way including being commited to a mental facility where he meets the mad son (Brad Pitt who received an Oscar nomination for his performance) of a reknowned virologist (Christopher Plummer). And he also encounters a therapist (Madeline Stowe) who initially believes him to be crazy though they build a unique relationshiop over time. Co-written by David Webb Peoples (the Oscar-nominated writer of Unforgiven and Blade Runner), this dizzying tale takes features several dizzying turns carried by sterling performances.

PENDENTE: Rubrica su Cinema, letteratura, fumetto ed esperienze culturali
"Rifiuto l'idea di un sistema che riduce l'essenza di un film all'incasso del primo fine settimana. Questo noi vogliamo fare: oggetti d' arte ottimisti e rivoluzionari"Può il Cinema superare le barriere e i confini che nessuno ha costruito e tracciato? E può tale Cinema rivolgersi al grande pubblico?La risposta non è semplice ma Lana e Lilly Wachowski ci provano sempre e comunque con la loro costante ricerca della transizione e della libertà.Nel 2015 le sorelle Wachowski si dedicarono a due progetti. Uno per la televisione e l'altro per il cinema, l'ultimo loro film girato in coppia ad oggi.Space Opera che mischia riferimenti a Baum, Frank Herbert, Terry Gilliam e molto altro, "Jupiter-Il destino dell'universo" è un prodotto che porta avanti la filosofia delle sorelle Wachowski ma rimanendo schiacciato dalle proprie ambizioni.01.

We conclude our 1985 season with Nath's pick, Terry Gilliam's absurdist dark comedy Brazil, a disturbing vision of what the world might be like if capitalism squeezed every last shred of humanity out of society. Brazil tells us that world would have lots of ducts, and heroic vigilante plumbers played by Robert DeNiro.A wonderfully unique, hilarious and harrowing film with a stacked cast, Brazil is a step away from anything we've watched before on the podcast.Let us know what you think of this episode by emailing us at redshirtcinemaclub@gmail.com and support us on Patreon at patreon.com/redshirtcinemaclub for access to two bonus episodes per month as well as our newsletter, The Civilian Observer.

This week, Shat The Movies tumbles through the space-time continuum with Terry Gilliam's Time Bandits, a chaotic fantasy adventure filled with Monty Python humor, mischievous dwarves, and a cosmic battle between Good, Evil, and negligent parenting. Commissioned by listener Mark, this 1981 classic follows young Kevin as he's swept away by a crew of dimension-hopping bandits who've stolen a map of the universe and are using it to rob history blind—Napoleon, Robin Hood, and ancient kings all included. Gene and Big D debate whether the film is a brilliant kids' movie for adults or an unsettling fever dream wrapped in British absurdism. Along the way, they revisit the unforgettable Evil Genius, the Supreme Being's bureaucratic disappointment, and the ending that scarred an entire generation of children. Is Time Bandits a masterpiece of imagination or just Gilliam letting chaos do the directing? Grab your map, avoid the pure concentrated evil, and find out.

We're continuing our 1985 season this week with Walt Disney oddity, The Black Cauldron. Caught between the classic early decades of Disney animation and the studio's 1990s resurgence, The Black Cauldron is an unusually dark (and unusually British) adventure, with moments of dread and horror mixed in with the odd and unfathomable (magic pigs, hairy little thieves, gruesome self-sacrifice). Clearly, it struck a chord with young Rob, who grew up loving fantasy stories, and who picked this for our 1985 season. Enjoy, let us know what you think of the film, and join us next week for more 1985 oddness with Terry Gilliam's Brazil.

This week- two films about damaged psychologically manipulative men and the women entangled with them. In 1996 a virus wiped out the majority of humanity and forced the survivors underground. Now in a desperate attempt to salvage some future, volunteers are sent back in time in the hopes to trace the virus origin and obtain a sample of it in its purist form. James Cole, a prisoner traumatized from seeing a man murdered in a airport in his youth, is accidentally sent 6 years too early and sets off a chain of events with devastating consequences. Terry Gilliam's feature adaption of Chris Marker's 1967 short film, 12 Monkeys. The police investigate the murder of Laura Hunt, killed with a shot to her face in the doorway of her apartment. We the a young, beautiful, and highly successful advertising executive killed by her sardonic newspaper columnist friend, her parasitic playboy fiancé, her jealous wealthy socialite aunt, or her well intentioned maid? Is there a twist in this knot of boiling jealousies? Directed by one of the most influential directors of the Noir Era and 1999 inductee to the Library of Congress National Film Registry, Laura. All that and Kevin has trouble reintegrating into society, Tyler tries new baked goods, Dave is invited out, and Craig fails to rise above it all. Join us, won't you? Episode 440- Interpretive Rants

This week, we examine two films shaped by the influence of Franz Kafka. The first, Kafka (1991), directed by Steven Soderbergh from a screenplay by Lem Dobbs, intertwines biographical details of Kafka's life with motifs drawn from his fiction. The second, Brazil (1985), directed by Terry Gilliam, is frequently cited as one of the most profoundly Kafkaesque films ever made.

Als "sechster Monty Python" stand Terry Gilliam (geboren am 22.11.1940) selten vor der Kamera - er schuf die markanten Animationen. Berühmt wurde er mit Filmen wie "Brazil" und "12 Monkeys". Von Daniela Wakonigg.

The Holiday Trilogy returns! Taylor & Nick are joined again by show correspondent (and middle cousin) Anthony for more holiday movie recommendations! We start off with Shadow of the Vampire (2000), a unique blend of fact and fiction: a filmmaker obsessed with adapting Dracula hires a real vampire to play the infamous count. Then a photographer searches for a vicious serial killer in this gory adaptation of Clive Barker's short story, The Midnight Meat Train (2008). Finally, we travel into the imagination of Terry Gilliam with his revisionist take on the classic fairy tales of The Brothers Grimm (2005). Listen in for more on these movies and several bonus recommendations! __________Taylor Zaccario…Host, Director, Producer, WriterNick Zaccario…Host, Director, Producer, Editor Anthony Graziani…Correspondent Megan Zaccario…Holiday Trilogy Announcer

This week, Uncle Randy joins us to discuss Terry Gilliam's 1981 film, Time Bandits. We're taking a trip back to the video store to revisit this whimsical, Monty Python-esque fantasy classic. https://www.spreaker.com/episode/time-bandits--67828152 #Time #bandits #timebandits #terrygilliam #fantasy #80s #scifi #action #film #movie #montypython #johncleese #michaelpalin #brianfroud #adventure #little #people #dwarf #dwarves
Go back in time with us, as we rewind to our classic Time Bandits discussion for this stand alone mini-episode! BTW, Mom and Dad - its never a good idea to put your bare hand into a burning toaster. #timebandits #terrygilliam #montypython #johncleese
Aug. 22-28: Scott Bakula is a magic detective, Patricia Arquette and Owen Wilson are both in danger in Southeast Asia, an internet remix goes to Isengard, Matt Damon and Heath Ledger fight fairy tales, Peppa Pig warms our hearts, spooky caves are spooky, Narcos and Fear the Walking Dead debut, and like all men, we talk about Rome way too much. All that and more from 30, 20, and 10 years ago.
Tonight we celebrate the career of Terry Gilliam!What happens when the animator from Monty Python decides to direct movies? You get Terry Gilliam — an American who somehow made the most British films imaginable.Gilliam's fingerprints are all over Monty Python's Flying Circus — those cut-out animations, the grotesque faces, the surreal leaps between worlds. And when he moved into directing, he carried that style with him: cluttered sets, exaggerated characters, satire of authority, and a constant blur between dream and reality.You see it evolve across three films. Time Bandits — childhood fantasy meets biting satire, a boy escaping his consumer-obsessed parents to loot history with dwarves. The Adventures of Baron Munchausen — a sprawling tale of impossible adventures, about how imagination itself becomes resistance in a world closing in. And Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas — Hunter S. Thompson's American nightmare, filtered through Gilliam's absurd, grotesque lens, with Johnny Depp mumbling like a Monty Python character for two straight hours.Gilliam's films are infamous for their production disasters — blown budgets, lawsuits, near career-enders. But that's exactly why he matters. In an age of safe blockbusters, Gilliam shows what happens when you chase imagination at any cost. His movies are messy, personal, and unforgettable.Terry Gilliam isn't just a filmmaker. He's the warning and the inspiration — proof that cinema can still be wild.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

*Apologies for the sound quality this episode, we had lost the original file but used a lower quality backup* Despite mixed results with previous movies, the GBGBs embarked on their 3rd Terry Gilliam project with The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988)! This movie stars John Neville as our titular Baron who spins a wild tale of his exploits to a beleaguered theater crowd while the Ottoman empire lays siege to their city. To say hijinks ensue would be an understatement. This fella gets into some real wacky stuff. Denali does his best to be fair but did NOT like this watch, but we may have some diverging opinions in the mix this episode. Also discussed: telling tall tales, how safe are hot air balloons really? and where does this movie fit in the DC Cinematic Universe? Thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy Movies! This week, we head back to the Cold War comedy days of Spies Like Us (1985), directed by John Landis and written by Dan Aykroyd, Lowell Ganz, and Babaloo Mandel. Inspired by the Hope/Crosby “Road” pictures, the film takes a satirical jab at espionage and military absurdities of the Reagan Era. Aykroyd and Chevy Chase play bumbling “spies” who are unwittingly used as decoys in a high-stakes mission to distract the Russians, only to accidentally stumble into the real operation and prevent World War III. We break down the story, the scathing humor, and the long list of cameos, from Frank Oz and Bob Hope to filmmakers Sam Raimi, Terry Gilliam, and Ray Harryhausen. We also compare Austin Milbarge and Emmett Fitz-Hume against our secret agent bracket from a few weeks back to see how they stack up in spy cinema history. Are you a spy, like them? Do you still like the 80s political satire? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Doctor!” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know.
