Has anyone from around here seen The Brothers Grimm? I've read a lot of mixed reviews of it and heard it only made $15 million, but it looked kind of interesting, certainly no worse than any of the other "blockbusters" that came out this past summer.
Terry Gilliam films, which include Time Bandits, Brazil, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, and Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas among others, can be a little much to take, but you can't deny that they're interesting in some way or another. I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an Obi-Wan to go.
I have yet to see Brazil (not my country, the movie), and I sort of enjoyed Baron Munchausen and Seven Monkeys (seven?). Although, of course, I prefered him during his "Pythonesque" years.
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering
Ric, you might be interested to know that the python audio albums were recorded in a converted greenhouse in some guy's back yard very near to my house. It was in the local newspaper last week becuase they are releasing a new outtakes album.
