Taika Waititi, the creative and executive behind some of cinema and televisions most entertaining shows, What We do in the Shadows, Reservation Dogs, Our Flag Means Death and movies likes Jojo Rabbit, The Hunt for the Wilder People, Next Goal Wins and more has yet another television series coming in July of this year, 2024.
Time Bandits the series, is an adaptation of Terry Gilliam’s fantasy film that I quote to this very day “Stay! Guard the Map.”
I have no idea if this is a continuation or a fresh approach to the material, but I do know that July 24th I will be there for this show’s 10 episode Season One.
No doubt ‘Love and Thunder’ was a miss, but so far the projects he’s been associated with have been on target more than his misses. (I gotta watch ‘Next Goal Wins’ again.) So there’s assurance this willl work I will most certainly give it a spin.
… After “Love and Thunder”, I’m really not optimistic about this.
but then, touching Time Bandits is a recipe for failure.
