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?
