    In reply to Terry Gilliam Lets Us Inside His Demented Cartoon Vision
    There is something true about the "used to be good at" quote, in that it does feel oddly "dated."

    I think Gilliam was such an influence on so many animators and people in the film industry - even if/especially because he's usually been kind of a fringe character - that his style and look has been adopted, adapted, and expanded significantly by others over the years.

    So to see something now that is so straight Gilliam makes me feel like I'm watching a movie from the 80's...even if it is still cutting edge and even though what he was doing in the 80's was ahead of its time. It's not "old-fashioned" looking, it's just visually so similar to his classics from that era that it makes me feel like I'm watching something from that era.

    "which Gilliam calls 'a compendium of all the things I used to be good at.'"

    I just wanna give him a big hug.

    @Lassus: He said that with a huge guffaw. (I did the interview part of this post, Lauren did the Hall H part.)

    @Charlie Jane Anders: Well, sure, I can see that; but even if I wasn't there I can imagine the root of such a comment, it just sounds a little self-biting.
