Gilliam News: The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus is a fantasy film directed by Terry Gilliam and written by Gilliam and Charles McKeown. The film follows the leader of a travelling theatre troupe who, having made a deal with the Devil, takes audience members through a magical mirror to explore their imaginations. Christopher Plummer, Tom Waits, and Heath Ledger star in the film, though Ledger's death one-third of the way through filming caused production to be temporarily suspended. Ledger's role was recast with Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell portraying transformations of Ledger's character Tony as he travels through a dream world. The film is dedicated to Ledger - the normal credit "A Terry Gilliam Film" is removed in favor of "A Film From Heath Ledger and Friends."

At Last the 1948 Show and Do Not Adjust Your Set on DVD! We've been huge fans of these rare pre-Python series series for years, and were overjoyed when selected episodes came out on DVD recently. Both sets were a bit disappointing, though - For the At Last the 1948 Show release, five "compilation" episodes were rescued from Swedish TV. It's wonderful to see 5 episodes' worth of this classic sketch comedy. However, a lot more material exists (roughly 5 more episodes worth), and it should have been on this set, except that those putting it together didn't seem to know it existed! Perhaps a volume 2 is in order. The Do Not Adjust Your Set release fared better, with nine episodes from the first series. The Christmas episode "Do Not Adjust Your Stocking" was missing, and so was the first episode of the second series, due to a rights dispute, but all in all a good introduction to this series.

Spamalot! Eric Idle's Broadway musical was lovingly ripped-off from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The original production was directed by Mike Nichols and starring Tim Curry, Hank Azaria, and David Hyde Pierce ... with John Cleese as the voice of God. Eric Idle also released an "official bootleg" album, "Eric Idle sings Spamalot," featuring his own versions of songs written for the show - including many that got cut out of it!

Out of the Trees has been recovered! The legendary one-episode show, written by Graham Chapman and Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), long thought lost, has been recovered. It has been screened publicly, but not released on DVD.

Ripping Yarns and Rutles 2 on DVD! Michael Palin and Terry Jones have lovingly restored every episode of their classic post-Python series Ripping Yarns for a new DVD. The DVD features commentary, laugh-track-less versions of the episodes, and an incredibly rare BBC play entitled Secrets, written by Palin and Jones and not seen in years. (The play later became the film Consuming Passions.) Eric's Idle's latest film, Rutles 2: Can't Buy Me Lunch is now available on DVD. A companion to his classic film The Rutles: All You Need is Cash, the film features outtakes from the original film, as well as all-new interviews with celebrities like Tom Hanks, David Bowie, Mike Nichols, Carrie Fisher and many more - talking about how they were affected by the world's greatest rock group. I had a chance to see this film with Idle present in 2003, and I must say, it's hilarious, and a good buy for any Rutle/Python fan.
