I really don't like Terry Gilliam.

Burton:Gilliam::Emmerich:Spielberg, although lately Gilliam is ripping off his own rip-off more and more.

Are there bees out there? Or does that little girl have Jain parents?

poorwill She's a mosquito keeper. She harvests them for blood.

I like Gilliam, but I try not to think about Tideland too much. This is not helping.

Fuck this guy. He's just a lame ass Spielberg hating snob. And I never heard of him until poetv started jerking off to him.
|
poorwill I don't think all of poetv is jacking off to him - this clip is more damning if you *have* heard of him. Gilliam isn't the hack Emmerich is, but he isn't nearly as far away as he'd like to think. I lump him in with try-hards like Del Toro, Burton and Jonze.

cognitivedissonance ^^ this.
If he wasn't involved with the Pythons, nobody would know/care who he is. And even then, he's less popular than ERIC IDLE.
|
Innocent Bystander Yeah whatever. He made 12 Monkeys which is better than the lives of me, you or any number of people here combined.
|
Mancakes Any director could have came out with that script, cast, and producer to make a masterpiece. A handful would have probably ended up with a much better product.

How can you people hate Time Bandits? Were you never children, or did your parents force you to recite Howard Zinn essays when you were little?
|
poorwill No, I liked shitty movies when I was a kid too.

Old_Zircon 12 Monkeys was the movie that made me realize he didn't have anything left to say.

Why is it that once directors have a name for themselves they can't enjoy making a movie unless they douchenozzle all over their peers? I like Gilliam's movies a lot, but what a douche. Heath Ledger must have OD'd to escape.

Hay Belly I'm not well-known enough to state an opinion.

He's become a fantastic caricature of himself.
