The events in ZARDOZ take place on January 1, 2025.
@unicorndeburgh I see your cunning plan, to get folks to rewatch Zardoz, but I’m not falling for it. Never again!

@philpennock Omigod, it's streaming on _four_ services!

I saw it with my friend Liz in the theater when I was in maybe 9th grade? I recall that Liz's younger brother asked me about the movie, and I started to explain the plot and then realized that I _really_ didn't want to go there.

Wheee! I've been waiting so long to wear that outfit!

@unicorndeburgh @kcarruthers was it?

@unicorndeburgh Zardoz gets a lot of shit for like 20 seconds' worth of monologue at the beginning, monologue that makes more sense as you get more context.

@unicorndeburgh Or was it supposed to be 2293?

Wikipedia (I know, not always reliable) thinks so.
