Zardoz fans, in my NCD?
It's more likely than you think
According to Dan Harmon on his podcast, there exists a director's commentary of Zardoz where the director starts it off saying something like "hello, my name is [director] and I'll be the first to admit this one... kind of got away from me"
Edit find the clip: https://youtu.be/tQNC4fG3EMs?si=uBJyjvfxRDfZoPxf
It's a nerd-dork coalition about geopolitics, of course we like Sean Connery movies!
... James who?
Every time I think about Zardoz, I think it must be the last time I'll ever think about Zardoz. Maybe Zardoz is eternal?
Well, I guess that as long as something is still remembered, it still lives on even if just in peoples' memories. So in a way Zardoz is going to live on much longer than most of us, who'll be forgotten in just a couple of generations
This is legitimately one of my favorite films. They definitely were on drugs making this one, but good drugs. Exceedingly good drugs.
It's like pure concentrated essence of 70's. I actually really do like it too; like I said in another comment it's not what I'd call a good movie as such, but the ridiculous camp is part of the fun for me. What's not to love about a weird-as-shit 70's dystopian scifi romp that's like Elysium on tons of LSD?
Getting a lot of Elden Ring vibes.
Interesting... I never heard about this movie. I must see it now o.o
It's, uh… it's interesting. I wouldn't call it a good movie exactly, but it's not terrible either – very campy, very weird, often funny without meaning to be, and clearly a product of the 70's, but it's a fun and ridiculous watch.
Lots of people say it's incomprehensible because they just focus on the weird shit (of which there is plenty), but it's a pretty standard "dystopian future where the elite live lives of plenty by subjugating masses who live in squalor" trope at its core. Like Elysium but made by hippies
Your description just made it more cooler 😜 . I haven't watched it yet!
Sean Connery showing off his hairy chest.
In diapers.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
