Conclave 6a: A Tardis?! Hold Our Beers... (”Time Bandits” Pt. 1)

**NEW EPISODES DROP EVERY TWO WEEKS***

The Cinemania Society, a not-so-secret society of movie geeks, convenes to scrutinize, criticize, analyze, satirize, brutalize, and otherwise vamp on the weirdest films in cinema.

In the first episode of our sixth conclave, the Society takes a trip through time as they analyze Terry Gilliam’s 1981 films “Time Bandits.”  

In this episode:

• The Society finds the Restricted Room a shambles.
• Zac finds a poster, inspiring Andrea to take up the Gavel
• Daniel's inappropriate bedtime reading 
• Trampling: a recurring theme in Gilliam pictures?
• Andre shows up late with a new companion.
• Do you want an Ultron? Because that's how you get an Ultron!
• Nobody knows what the fuck to call furniture
• Zac discovers why the English are enamored of boxes bigger on the inside
• How the six Time Bandits are a parody of Monty Python
• We mourn Jack Purvis and Graham Chapman
• C.H.U.M.P.s attack!
• Hackneyed cliches in the Land of the Pyramids...and the Conclave continues!
• We learn some stuff about Napoleon and debate French inches vs. English inches 
• Terry Gilliam's history as a carnie saves him from raging ableism
• Cinquisitor Ethan has a Belushi moment
• Python-on-Python violence
• A terrible Taika Waititi impression
• C.H.U.M.P.s attack...AGAIN!
