TIME BANDITS canceled.

I do not say, ‘Never remake TIME BANDITS.’ I do not even say, ‘You have to be as good as Terry Gilliam to remake TIME BANDITS.’ I do say, “Do not let your ego write checks that your body can’t cash.” The new TIME BANDITS show did not seem to have much more of a reason to exist than, “Not enough people have seen this movie, so let’s do it as a series.” Which is… fine; but it would have been much more efficient to simply widely re-release the original flick in theaters, and put some advertising behind it.

…Hey, would that strategy have worked worse?

  1. Good riddance.

    I was indifferent to the movie. If pressed, I can remember maybe thirty seconds of it. At most.
    And I was still horrified by the info being released.

  2. Ah, Moe. Poor, simple, good-hearted Moe.

    Making money was never the main reason.

    Poisoning the memories of those who wrongthink and polluting cultural touchstones was always the goal.
