    I had no idea this was happening. What a great surprise. Must have watched Time Bandits 30x before I even graduated HS. Love me some Terry Gilliam!

      I remember first watching it when I was sick and couldn’t make heads or tails out of it. I finally watched it fully and just loved it! It’s one of my favorites

    I last watched Time Bandits decades ago and I can’t remember anything about it. I’m not subscribed to Apple so I won’t be able to watch it. Oh well.

      Time Bandits is fun but like… At half way through it gets dumb. It’s whenever they end up on the cruise ship. The rest of the movie isn’t as fun. The premise is that while God created the universe and everything in it, he delegated less magnificent things like shrubs to be created by his underlings. I believe they were dwarves? So they put backdoors around the world and use them to steal stuff. Hence Time Bandits.
