Wonderful Labs:
What is with Gilliam and the Black Knight? He seems to inject it into
everything he does! I feel like he found his Holy Grail much longer ago
than that!

Dear Patsy,
*Terry* Gilliam? The director?
I mean, yes, okay. Black Knight in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail,"
indeed. Well spotted.
And we can certainly say there's a knight in *black armor* in
"Jabberwocky"... there's the *Red* Knight in "The Fisher King"... um, as
well as a... Japanese Knight in "Brazil," then... I don't know, an
invisible Plague Knight in "Twelve Monkeys"?
Why not! The *Acid Lizard* Knight of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,"
and The Over-Budget Knight of "Baron Munchausen," the Stunt Knight of
"Time Bandits," the *Depp* Knight of "Lost in La Mancha," and... you
know what? You're high. APE LAW!
Gilliam's only directed 8 feature length films. Five have men wearing
a form of medieval knight's armor in 'em, one has a samurai. So what?
Maybe the guy gets a deal on discount costumes. What *are* you on about?
I think you should maybe worry more about grasping your own Holy Grail
before concerning yourself with the injections of others. It works for
Mister Monkey.
