Graham Chapman, whose death from cancer in 1989 forever closed the door on a full reunion of the Monty Python comedy troupe, will soon be back in what might be the next best thing: he will star in a 3-D animated version of his absurdist memoir, “A Liar’s Autobiography: Volume VI,” with most or all of the surviving Python members performing roles that are cut together with Chapman’s voice from a taped reading made shortly before he died.
Autobiografin är genial.

The movie will be framed by some sort of narrative device in which an animated John Cleese and an animated Graham Chapman go on a bike ride and talk about his life. The other Pythons will step in to play various characters in the story they tell. Michael Palin, for instance, will be Chapman’s father.
Det låter lite krystat, men eftersom det handlar om komiska geni är jag inte orolig än.

The film is expected to be about 85 minutes long, and should be finished in time for release next spring by Brainstorm Media and the production company Trinity, the filmmakers said.
Att de kommit så långt! Trodde när jag först läste om filmen att det bara var på pappret än så länge.

This doesn’t have a title yet though director Bill Jones seems to be floating Graham Chapman – Dead in 3D out there as a possibility.
Samma kille som gav oss Monty Python - Allmost the truth. (5+ timmars-dokumentär, och en bra sådan.) Frågan är vad fan de ska mecka med 3D för...?

So far nearly all the ex-Pythons are part of this. The NY Times says that in addition to the ghost of Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, and Terry Jones will provide voices. Eric Idle is the only hold out though word is “they’re working on him”, whatever that means.
Tror Idle att det är en dålig idé?

Terry Jones, who plays both himself and Mr. Chapman’s mother in the film, said he wouldn’t take any of it too seriously.
“The film shouldn’t be made,” he insisted in a conversation during which he laughed more than spoke from Gotland Island in Sweden, where he was vacationing.

Ja, vad säger ni? Är det här en bra idé? Är det bara för pengar eller kommer filmen sopa banan med all nutida komedi, såsom deras tidigare filmer och serier fortfarande gör? Varför tror ni Eric Idle är tveksam?

Själv hoppas - och tror jag - att de inte kommer göra någon besviken. Så mycket briljans medlemmarna levererat genom åren borde göra denna film till nästa års mest efterlängtade!
Dreadful tinny, sort-of words!
Det är Python det.
