Time Bandits

Published: May 19, 2021, 1:25 a.m.

This episode we're taking a wild, cross-century trip to meet the legends of time as we go on a heist with Terry Gilliam's Time Bandits from 1981. Along the way we'll explore Gilliam's themes of imagination and materialism, praise the underappreciated comedic abilities of David Warner, and identify with the problems of married ogres. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and THE PROBLEM!!! We must have fruit!!

Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
