For those who are reading this, the "Gormenghast" series, the series Gilliam was trying to adapt, is truly one of the best fictional series ever written. I beg everybody reading this comment to go read it as soon as possible!

Terry Gilliam should make as many movies as Scorsese and Spielberg.

I'm rewatching this after Gilliam said that he's officially given up on "The Defective Detective" (he couldn't get the rights back from the studio). It's a shame because it looks like it had a lot of potential. If you have any more information about it (like a copy of the script perhaps), it'd be awesome for you to do a deep dive on it.

I’d love to see you do a video about Michael Haneke and some of the films of his career.

I don't know if you've known this and didn't want to mention and it may not count as of the unmade films that Gilliam had under his belt, but J.K. Rowling considered him for the first Harry Potter movie. There are a few touches here and there of Terry's sensibilities later in that franchise, such as the darkness within the Ministry of Magic being reminiscent of the totalitarianism in "Brazil."

Nice video. As a sidenote, there will be a new "Gormenghast" tv series adaptation, written by Toby Whithouse for Showtime, with Neil Gaiman producing : variety.com/2019/tv/news/gormenghast-series-showtime-neil-gaiman-akiva-goldsman-1203303263/ Also, if you happen to stumble upon it, there's a draft for "Defective Detective"'s screenplay floating on the web somewhere.

Oh my goodness the Sam Hamm script for Watchmen, which Gilliam was attached to for a long time, is actually absolutely terrible. Commenting before I've watched all the video but damn, if you can find the script (it's easy to track down) you'll be able to see what an absolute debacle the source material is (I mean for Gilliam's proposed film, not the trade paperback (or "graphic novel" if you incorrectly chose to call it that). This script is EASILY AS BAD, probably WORSE, than "Superman Lives Again" or whatever it was called, the one which was written by a self-professed "hairstylist to the stars". Not to be down or barbers at all, but this guy shouldn't have given up his day job. One-half of the guy behind Metalockalypse did a doco called "The Death Of Superman lives" which is worth a watch. There are several pre-production where there are several photos of Nic Cage in a few different suits been doing the rounds on the internet for years. With a ludicrous, almost hair-metal style wig. Iirc from the doco Kevin Smith was attached to direct. EDIT: Some great books recommended here. Btw , who was it who wanted Arnold Schwarzenegger for....Dr.Manhattan!!?! OMG that REd Riding Hood-type in the Defective Detective (whether it was from the film or just an apposite image you found on google) image reminded me veerrrrryyy strongly of the climax of Don't Look Now! {Shivers...the way Southerland kicks that window through in his death throes as he bleeds out...uurrrrgh}. Great video TYler look forward to more of these!

Do you think? I love Cronenberg but I respect your opinion and can definitely see what you're getting at, some of his films DO suffer in execution in parts. Cronenberg is a big comics fan, btw. Ironically enough Hamm wrote the anniversary arc for...I can't remember whether it was Batman or Detective comics #600 to about #603 and was actually a great script tbh...where he got that awful "twist" ending for "Watchmen" was just...a mystery which will remain lame. EDIT: And The Ghormenghast Trilogy is indubitably superior to Lord Of The Rings books. Peake was an amazing author and illustration. Just fantastic. And, All This And World War II is NOT some sort of "lost treasure"...it's effing awful.

Loved this and even I, a self-proclaimed Gilliam fanatic, didn't know about some of these. Thanks for the video! If you're interested, I made this tribute video to Terry's films with the true fans in mind: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fdyEZ8mHqrCbgKs.html

I 100% agree with @mr.fiction1558 The Gormenghast books are so fascinatingly idiosyncratic and genuinely original, with some of the most amazing prose I’ver certainly ever read, and should be read by everyone. Truly the real classics of fantastic literature of the 20th Century, more than Tolkien in my opinion. Important to not too that the books aren’t truly Medieval; rather, the world they take place in is more like an extremely Kafkaesque amalgamation of many different cultures and time periods. I find the prospect of Gilliam trying to do them unbelievably fascinating. There was a BBC miniseries made based on the first couple books but it’s awful. I know that Neil Gaiman has been attached to a new TV version at showtime that will hopefully be better. To be honest, I think that only directors like Denis Villeneuve, Robert Eggers, Kristina Buozyte, Lynne Ramsay, Jennifer Kent, David Lowery, and Yorgos Lanthimos could meaningfully converse with the strange surreal atmosphere of the books (and I say converse because to me adaptations that are worth making are ones that are in dialogue with their material such that they stand on their own merits rather than just copying and pasting it). I picture Louis Hoffman as Steerpike, Taylor Russell as Fuschia, Olivia Colman (with a muscle suit) as Gertrude, Rahul Kohli as Sepulchrave, Peter Capaldi as Dr. Prunesquallor, Mark Rylance as Flay, Tilda Swinton or Sylvia Hoeks playing both of the Twins at once (sort of like Jeremy Irons in Dead Ringers), and either David Mazouz or Winta McGrath (or maybe Azhy Robertson or Armen Nahapetian) as teenage Titus.
