"the plot of Zardoz loses the thread at several points along the way." No way!

Interesting, thanks for the link. One of my favourite so-bad-it's-good movies.

Zardoz should be eternally remembered for adding the phrase "The gun is good. The penis is bad." to our lexicon.

EDIT: I meant to say "evil," not "bad." Eh, haven't seen the movie in a while

Oh Martini, the ideas you come up with, the gif was perfect. I tried to watch Zardoz when I was in college but could not make it through the whole thing. Now I know how it ends! I love Sean Connery and I love science fiction - I thought what could go wrong? As for Ms Rampling, whenever I see her name I always hear Benny Hill's voice. He used her name for several jokes in episodes of his show. My late father was a huge Benny Hill fan so do I know Yakety Zax? Yes I do. Thanks, Martini.

I did do one a while back, but there's a lot of material to mine.

That one was good and yes, there is a lot of material. His show was on the air from 1955 to 1989 which is a very long time indeed.
