Has anyone seen terry gilliam's "brazil"?

A more manageable question would be, who HASN'T seen Brazil?

Name of the Rose has been dramatised for BBC Radio - you can (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio4_aod.shtml?radio4/classicserial) catch it if you're quick.

Gambit (almost like a good fan mission =). Avoid the spoilers, don't read the plot decription.

Well then, am I correct in thinking it might be a good extrapolation of a possible direction for the future of the thief universe?

I see Zylon got up on the wrong side of the bedroll again.

I can see why so many would say that Name of the Rose was very thiefsy atmospherically. I fast-forwarded through a lot of it, though and then felt like I had to repent for an hour after. :eek:

Don't laugh, but...
When I first saw the previews for Constantine I thought they were making a Thief movie, and almost started dancing in the middle of the theater. And then I saw it was a Keanu Reaves movie...

Sorry for being rude, but I have NEVER seen a three-year-old account that is still a new member.

Depends on how many posts you make. Strange no?

It's not a movie but a certain Doctor Who episode (for any fellow British taffers) reminded me a lot of Thief 2. Obviously Rise of The Cybermen was set in a modern world, but they both have a maniacal, powerful leader, robots, a theme about a man who thinks machines are superior to biological creatures, a sinister urban setting, a technological level greater than you would expect given the time period and a cruel way of making the robots. I wonder if Russel T. Davies ever played Thief...
