2.4 Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (2020) ”Snake Oilsman”

This week we’re babbling about Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (2020), written by Makoto Ueda and directed by Junta Yamaguchi.

But before we do, and just for you our dear and loyal listener, we invite you to gorge on some extracurricular babble about our supporting Doraemon cartoon: The Time Machine is Lost (2005). Yaaaaay! 

This unfeasibly joyful and wildly overemoting short, is just a tiny part of an expansive collection of manga, TV and anime, featuring this feline cultural icon. Come grab hold of a monster’s ball from the giant pouch of a future cat-like robot!

In no less strange and hilarious fashion, in our feature babble we attempt (with our tiny brains) to fathom the recursive complications of a beautifully precise and constructed ‘one-take’ film... sidetracked as we are by Cotton Eye Joe, the inaugural mention of gloriously bleak Hungarian master filmmaker Béla Tarr, and predictions of the future, with the tasty jams & jellies of the most notorious historical Snake Oilsman of them all - Nostradamus!

Time Babble Series Two, Episode Four is waiting for you now on Podbean, Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts and all good podcast services. If you can’t find it on your usual streaming service, please write in to the usual address.
