28 Years Later: What Is It Really Saying?

A talk in which I explore the world-building and cultural tropes in 28 Years Later. Why was it devoid of diversity? What did Ralph Fiennes represent? What happened 28 years ago in our own timeline? And why do liberals have an issue with diversity-free dystopias?

In my first video monologue in a while, I discuss the deteriorating state of Britain and explore some of the themes and symmetries in Cormac McCarthy’s works, No Country for Old Men and Blood Meridian. Is our future to be a dog-eat-dog state of nature? And did McCarthy embed allusions to the mythic barbarism of Meridian within No Country?

Time Bandits,Technology and Evil

Terry Gilliam’s 1981 fantasy classic Time Bandits is not officially a Monty Python production, but it involves most of the team, and much of the humour is obviously “Pythonesque”.
