Time Bandits (1981)

It's the podcast where a filmmaker, a comedian and their podcast guru guest follow the mysterious map of the 80s movies we think we love.... or perhaps get lost in the time warp of the 80s movies we might have missed as we watch with our grown up eyes to see how they hold up. This is Time Bandits, a movie selection from 1981 with special guest Pete Wright.

Show Notes

Join Filmmaker Nathan Blackwell (Voyage Trekkers, the Last Movie Ever Made) and Comedian Improviser Krissy Lenz (the Neighborhood Comedy Theatre), plus Pete Wright (TruStory FM, The Next Reel Film Podcast) as they explore the times of legend and the plastic wrapped fortress of ultimate darkness in Time Bandits (1981).

Letterboxd says, "ALL THE DREAMS YOU’VE EVER HAD AND NOT JUST THE GOOD ONES. Young history buff Kevin can scarcely believe it when six dwarfs emerge from his closet one night. Former employees of the Supreme Being, they’ve purloined a map charting all of the holes in the fabric of time and are using it to steal treasures from different historical eras. Taking Kevin with them, they variously drop in on Napoleon, Robin Hood and King Agamemnon before the Supreme Being catches up with them."

Pete is a big fan of this movie, Nathan loves it, and Krissy has never seen it! Get their review, ratings and Deep Cut Recommendations!
