Hi everybody! It’s finally finished! Thanks so much for your patience and allowing me to finish the 2001 series before this one. I’m working out a couple of ideas for the next vote that will help me make videos on more of your suggestions without it taking so long. More soon.

This was obviously such a fun episode to make. As you can probably tell, I am a bit of a Terry Gilliam fan, so I may have favored him a bit more than the others in this episode. Anyway, I hope you enjoy and stay tuned for a new vote coming soon!

Thanks so much for your continued support!

This episode features how Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam approached this project as first time directors, how comedy can influence film form, and how the animation creates a more complete world.
