Time Bandits (prod. Jemaine Clement, Iain Morris & Taika Waititi).
Apple's fantasy adventure comedy series based on Terry Gilliam's 1981 cult classic film for kids wears its quirky sensibilities on its sleeve thanks primarily to Lisa Kudrow's easy casting. She effortlessly plays the offbeat leader of a ragtag group of time-travelling thieves (as the title suggests) who usually happen to steal things during culturally significant moments throughout history. It's more goofy fun in the vein of Bill & Ted and other breezy entertainment for both children and adults.
We’ve already covered one of the surprisingly awful films to be quietly shoved out into UK cinemas on Boxing Day 2023. Let’s now coverer the one that might seem more obvious to those watching. Taika Waititi has completed his full transformation from Hollywood golden boy to one of its de facto villains. This viewer is mixed on Waititisother work but Hunt the Wilderpeople is one of his favorite…
Based on the very true story of the American Samoa football team who were known as the worst team in the world when they lost an international game by 31-0. The qualifers for the 2014 World Cup are approaching and the association decides they need a real coach to help turn them around.

i adore how quick the boys are to help crutchie when he needs it. no discussion, no pity, just support.
when morris pushes him over, it isn't jack (who is right there) who helps him up, neither is it race nor romeo, who we saw him interact with earlier in the song. it's albert who helps him up, and it's albert who carries him until he gets his crutch back. did they have a system? was it albert's job to carry crutchie when needed? was it because they're close friends, and we just never get to see it again? or was it that any of the newsies would have done it, but albert happened to be the closest?
when the nuns hand out food, kid blink and smalls don't hesitate before hoisting him onto their shoulders. jack and specs both place their hands on his back to ensure that he doesn't fall backwards. it's so smooth, so natural, like they've done it a million times before.
and note: i don't think crutchie interacts with any of those characters (albert, kid blink, smalls) at any other moment in the musical.
Hi, I'm just here to say that at some point in time, Iain Young apparently understudied Crutchie. And Chaz Wolcott, but in a different production (where he mainly played racetrack!)

Kay was kind enough to bless us with MULTIPLE BTS posts today! The first was a video of an attempt by Con to use his horsey leg.
Then she was kind enough to show us some more leather work she did, including the holder for Ed's alcohol in the Gravy Basket.

iain morris: more exclusive Taika Waititi content. here he is in deep preparation for the acting part of his acting/writing/directing role on Next Goal Wins.
There's really no reason for this inspirational but predictable underdog sports comedy based on a true story to really exist other than some of it actually happened. While the plight of the American Samoa national soccer team is undoubtedly interesting material, this adaptation of the 2014 documentary of the same name is a totally disposable and insubstantial effort that only just barely elevated due to a talented cast.
