Terry Gilliam Will Be In Jupiter Ascending
16 May 2013 12:12 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
He may be best known as the anarchic animator, writer and director responsible for such movies as Monty Python And The Holy Grail, The Fisher King, Brazil and Twelve Monkeys, but Terry Gilliam is not above gracing the screen with his acting presence when the moment (and, more usually, friends) call for it. He’s hit Facebook to announce that he’ll be part of the Wachowskis’ Jupiter Ascending.Gilliam offered no details on what he might be doing in the film, beyond remarking that he’ll be in a “small but vital part”.Jupiter Ascending finds the Wachowskis back in big-scale sci-fi territory, set in a universe where humans are near the bottom of the evolutionary ladder. But destitute young woman Jupiter Jones (Mila Kunis) is destined for something greater – and that brings an assassin hired by the Queen of the Universe, none too happy that her reign is under threat. »
'We lost a legend': Ray Harryhausen remembered by Depp, Abrams, del Toro, Gilliam, more
7 May 2013 6:45 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
As news spread Tuesday that Ray Harryhausen had died at age 92 there was an especially emotional reaction from sci-fi, horror and fantasy filmmakers — a community with a deep and formative affection for the old-school effects wizard and the work he did on films such as The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad and Clash of the Titans (1981). EW reached out to some signature names in those circles on Tuesday to frame the legacy of Harryhausen and by phone and email they responded with praise for a departed master.

2013 CapeTown Film Festival: “The Thing,” “Return Of The Jedi,” And More!
6 May 2013 2:12 PM, PDT | FamousMonsters of Filmland | See recent Famous Monsters of Filmland news »
This year, at the Grauman’s Egyptian Theater in Hollywood, Entertainment Weekly and the American Cinematheque teamed up for the inaugural CapeTown Film Festival, and hopefully this festival is here to stay. The past week, I’ve gone to a few of the screenings, joining the hordes of fanboys and girls cheering for their favorite picture(s).
The lineup has been stellar, featuring classics both old and new. On Tuesday, EW staged an early screening of Iron Man 3 before the U.S. premiere date of May 3rd, with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige in attendance. The next day was Edgar Wright Day, with Shaun Of The Dead and Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World being shown, with Edgar Wright joined by stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Brandon Routh, Satya Bhabha, and Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O’Malley. On Thursday, John Carpenter’s The Thing terrified the sold out crowd with a 35 mm print, »

Terry Gilliam talks 'Twelve Monkeys,' 'Brazil,' and 'Harry Potter' at the CapeTown Film Fest
6 May 2013 1:53 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Terry Gilliam flew into Los Angeles for the screening of his hallucinogenic time-travel romp Twelve Monkeys at EW’s first-ever CapeTown Film Fest. The director and legendary enfant terrible sat down in front of the crowd with EW’s Geoff Boucher on Sunday evening for a freewheeling hour-long chat which skipped all over Gilliam’s storied career, from Monty Python to Brazil to why Hollywood won’t let him make movies to the time he almost (but not really) got to make Harry Potter. Check out a video of the chat below, and read on for the key lines from the legendary filmmaker. »

Directors' Trademarks: Terry Gilliam
6 May 2013 10:24 AM, PDT | Cinelinx | See recent Cinelinx news »
Most directors have an identifiable style consistent with their approach and perspective. Each week Cinelinx will chose one director for an in-depth examination of the “signatures” that they leave behind in their work. This week, we examine the trademark style and calling signs of Terry Gilliam.
No matter his success as director or writer, Terry Gilliam will always be remembered for his contribution to Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Despite his name, Gilliam was the only American member of the posse. Although he wasn’t featured as heavily as the rest of the cast, Gilliam found his niche as the show’s animator. Those silly and very British newspaper/cardboard style animations that gave the show its unique style were created and organized by Gilliam. It’s only fitting then that he used his artistic talents after his time on the TV show to become a full-fledged movie director.

Terry Gilliam Retrospective Part 9: The Haunted Director and his “Poetic Horror Film”
23 April 2013 11:36 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Paul Risker continues his Terry Gilliam retrospective...
Described by David Cronenberg as a “poetic horror film”, Terry Gilliam prefers to think of Tideland as Alice in Wonderland meets Psycho. The choice of words of both directors indicates that Tideland will sit as one of Gilliam’s more divisive films, offering the viewer an authentic Gilliamesque trip into imagination and madness. Or to pay heed to Jonathan Rosenbaum’s ominous warning, “Enter this diseased Lewis Carroll universe at your own risk.”
In order to discuss Tideland there is the need to refer back to The Brothers Grimm. Once again Gilliam had found himself in conflict with the film hierarchy, this time Miramax’s Weinstein brothers, Harvey and Bob.
Following prolonged creative differences, Gilliam prepped Tideland in less than two months, during a break from Brothers Grimm, in part hoping the commencement of his tenth film would bring to an end the »

5 Surprising Personal Passion Projects of Legendary Directors
20 April 2013 11:08 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
There’s something inherently lonely and tortured about being a director. Yes, you’re the tyrant of the set and dictator of the vision, but you’re also the man (or woman) behind the curtain, the puppet master who never appears on stage….unless you’re Clint Eastwood or Quentin Tarantino. Or Alfred Hitchcock….or Roman Polanski…Anyway, the point is that you may be the genius behind a film, and celebrated as such, but you’re no superstar. There’s a reason why they are often referred to as voyeurs.
But the upside is that, once you’re an established money-maker, you can afford to be creative in your guises. That is, to put your dream on screen. Most directors have at some stage championed their baby, a cherished passion project which is their love letter to their craft. However, it’s quite galling how this endeavor often falls on deaf ears. »

Terry Gilliam Retrospective Part 8: The End of an Experiment
9 April 2013 12:40 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Paul Risker continues his Terry Gilliam retrospective....
Seven years would elapse between the release of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) and The Brothers Grimm (2005). As there should be with any great storyteller, there is a story behind what is a magic number at this point in Gilliam’s career. In the seven years starting in 1991 with The Fisher King and concluding in 1998 with Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Gilliam would direct three feature films, though in the seven years following Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Gilliam would find himself caught in the labyrinth of development hell, before he directed his ninth film: The Brothers Grimm.
During his three year hiatus from filmmaking between The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and Fisher King, Gilliam had resorted to humorously holding up boards like a hitchhiker, “Studio-less filmmaker. Family to support. Will direct for food”, was quite the leap from three »

Monty Python Announces Us/Europe Reunion Tour
1 April 2013 1:43 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
At the recent comedy festival in Aspen, Colorado, John Cleese (who famously quit the BBC’s Monty Python’s Flying Circus and years later was given credit for ending the Python’s film career) announced, with the ashes of Graham Chapman reportedly at hand, that Python was back together for a stage tour of Europe and the United States.
Reporting has been sketchy, but we can easily assume that the comedy team will reprise classic sketches like Dead Parrot and Lumberjack. But the real question is this: will the team introduce any new material? We can only hope. Dates have yet to be announced, but we can assume that the reunion tour will resemble the live performance in Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl: a flurry of familiar sketches and musical numbers tweaked for a live audience.
For now, here’s a quick roundup of the surviving members »
