Zardoz fans, in my NCD?
It's more likely than you think
According to Dan Harmon on his podcast, there exists a director's commentary of Zardoz where the director starts it off saying something like "hello, my name is [director] and I'll be the first to admit this one... kind of got away from me"
Edit find the clip: https://youtu.be/tQNC4fG3EMs?si=uBJyjvfxRDfZoPxf
It's a nerd-dork coalition about geopolitics, of course we like Sean Connery movies!
... James who?
Every time I think about Zardoz, I think it must be the last time I'll ever think about Zardoz. Maybe Zardoz is eternal?
Well, I guess that as long as something is still remembered, it still lives on even if just in peoples' memories. So in a way Zardoz is going to live on much longer than most of us, who'll be forgotten in just a couple of generations
This is legitimately one of my favorite films. They definitely were on drugs making this one, but good drugs. Exceedingly good drugs.
It's like pure concentrated essence of 70's. I actually really do like it too; like I said in another comment it's not what I'd call a good movie as such, but the ridiculous camp is part of the fun for me. What's not to love about a weird-as-shit 70's dystopian scifi romp that's like Elysium on tons of LSD?
Interesting... I never heard about this movie. I must see it now o.o
It's, uh… it's interesting. I wouldn't call it a good movie exactly, but it's not terrible either – very campy, very weird, often funny without meaning to be, and clearly a product of the 70's, but it's a fun and ridiculous watch.
Lots of people say it's incomprehensible because they just focus on the weird shit (of which there is plenty), but it's a pretty standard "dystopian future where the elite live lives of plenty by subjugating masses who live in squalor" trope at its core. Like Elysium but made by hippies
Your description just made it more cooler 😜 . I haven't watched it yet!
Getting a lot of Elden Ring vibes.
