If I mention the name Tony Jaa, most of you will probably know who that is. He’s the guy that managed to bring Street Fighter ultimate combos to the big screen, and make them even more badass by insisting that everything be filmed while he’s either on fire or downright crazy.

Terry Gilliam’s Brazil is – pardon my French – bat merde insante. It is also one of my favourite movies ever. The erstwhile Monty Python’s Flying Circus member has made that level of creative insanity his trademark, but with the exception of The Adventures of Baron Munchausen has never flipped his cinematic lid quite as severely since (though 12 Monkeys and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas …
