That was fun. Is there more where that came from?  8) 8) 8)

Only Gilliam animation I was aware of was the old Python cut-out bits. Course, it's over three years old, and has a nagging familiarity to it. Perhaps I originally saw it without Mr. Gilliam's name attached.

Smashing ideas, naturally. Thunderchicken will see it right!

Here's a preview trailer shown at Paris FX Forum in 2010. Quality a bit ropey but more goodies:

Found what appears to be the film's page. http://www.1884yesterdaysfuture.com/

I'd searched, found a blog with a link to it. The blogist complained that ENTER didn't work, but I think he didn't notice the two flags which access either English or French versions.

Has four 'test' .mov, and a couple of shorts, but I think the footage is all contained in the posts above. However, looked a bit better when I played from the site. And, there's a bit of fluff to read. Nothing to suggest an ETA.

This has been around for a while. It doesn't look like Gilliam will be doing the movie but you never know... He's renowned for taking as long as he wants to get a project finished. So there may still be hope.
