Rene Laloux (Fantastic Planet & Time Masters)

Archaeon

A perfect follow up to Alejandro Jodorowsky, we dip back into the Patreon archive and head to the badlands of European animation with Rene Laloux.

Rob is joined by Aidan and Graham to talk about Rene Laloux, best known for “one of the greatest animated films of all time”, Fantastic Planet. We get confused by that and also by the wonderfully campy 80s fantasy, Time Masters. Explaining the plot of these bad boys is just half the challenge.

Then, Rob is joined by Vincent (Invasion of the Pody People) and Kat (Hollywood News) to talk about all the new movies we’ve been watching. We touch upon The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, The Norseman and 2020 cult indie horror sci-fi, Come True.

An excellent episode, all told. Next week, another from the Patreon archive – Makoto Shinkai.

Theme A1 Rogue by Podington Bear.
