Line 13: Bad luck simply doesn't cut it: the man's '''cursed'''. ''[[The Onion]]'' once joked that if Terry Gilliam were to have a barbecue, [https://web.archive.org/web/20080815221136/http://www.theonion.com/content/node/32920 it would be beset by production delays]. But his perilous productions have resulted in a portfolio of fascinating, if not always successful, films. ---- {{creatortropes}} ~~=== The films of Terry Gilliam provide examples of the following tropes: ===~~ * [[Beethoven Was an Alien Spy]]: ''[[The Brothers Grimm (film)\|The Brothers Grimm]]'' * [[Cool Horse]]: Bucephalus, [[The Adventures of Baron Munchausen\|Baron Munchausen]]'s horse. Line 28 ⟶ 27: * [[Johnny Depp]]: ''Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas'' and ''The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus''; he was also going to be the lead in ''The Man Who Killed Don Quixote''. * [[The Nth Doctor]]: To complete ''The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus'' after Heath Ledger's death, he hired Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law to play Ledger's character in the alternate worlds the Imaginarium leads to. * [[~~Re Cut~~Recut]]: ''Brazil''; the Criterion DVD includes three different versions, including the one Universal wanted to release. * [[Robin Williams]]: ''[[The Adventures of Baron Munchausen]]'' (under a pseudonym) and ''The Fisher King''. He was going to be in ''The Brothers Grimm'' until objections were made by the Weinstein brothers. * [[Scenery Porn]]: His films have a very distinct look (highly detailed sets shot with very wide lenses), to the point where cinematographers often call a 14mm lens "the Gilliam lens". Granted, what he's actually shooting [[Scenery Gorn\|isn't always that pretty]].
