Monty Python's Holy Grail
 

Is it just me? I don't see what's so funny about it! Chris has been bugging me to watch that damn movie for a week...Help! I'm running out of excuses! :1orglaugh

me niether

its just a rabbit..

but its got BIG SHOP TEETH

Just watch it, it's fucking hilarious! :1orglaugh

I've tried...I find it lame! Maybe it's because I'm sober???

It's british humor... An aquired taste.

I just saw Gilliam's Lost In La Mancha.

Python is not for everyone.

But their humor <i>is</i> bold and original, and that film had more... balls... than any film I can think of.

Take note of the French.

Bring out your dead!

What's not to love about the movie?

memorized.

:glugglug

You should smoke a huge fatty for sure !

Yes, it requires intelligence. :1orglaugh

what is your favorite colour?


blue .... no red


WWAAAAAA

'you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!'

:glugglug

I second that!
One of the funniest movies ever made, and definitely on the "must watch" list!

"I'm not dead yet!!!"

Chapman put his medical career on hold and joined John Cleese on his tour with "Cambridge Circus", which ran on Broadway in Oct. 1964.

In England, he wrote for the "Doctor"-Series together with Bernard McKenna and John Cleese. He Met Michael Palin and Terry Jones while writing for "The Frost Report", but he also worked with Marty Feldman, Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr. At one Time he was writing for Monty Python, Ronnie Corbett and a "Doctor"-Series at the same time, together with Eric Idle and Barry Cryer.

Later he worked with Douglas Adams, they collaborated on a BBC special titled "Out of the trees".

After stopping drinking, he turned to his own project before filimg "Life of Brian": He produced, cowrote and starred "The Odd Job", which was released in 1978.

"No thanks, we've got one!"

Your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries! Now go away before I taunt you a second time!

So you are saying that Funbrunette is not an intelligent person.

I happen to think that Monty Python is hillarious.

?Come back here, yellow bellied cowards. I?ll bite your legs off!?


:1orglaugh

Funniest movie in the history of cinema.

"I fart in your general direction!"

:thumbsup :thumbsup

Monty Python & phatties go very well together...

:thumbsup

The movie is fucking great! Absolutely fabulous!

The Monty Python crew are also ex University lads, they came out of Cambrdige Footlight shows. So it's not everyones tastes.

I love the film and Life of Brian. When you shoot MPHG down tell us which film is your favoutite comedy.

I almost pissed myself at this part...

Black Knight: Oh, had enough eh?
Arthur: Look, you stupid bastard. You've got no arms left!
Black Knight: Yes I have.
Arthur: Look!
Black Knight: Just a flesh wound!

Then he cut his legs off too. Man, if you don't find that scene funny...

:glugglug

The black knight always triumphs!

only funny scene of the movie.
but very funny part. :thumbsup

INDEED!

:thumbsup

The N.Y. Times proclaimed "The Holy Grail" as a defining moment in cinema! "Movies will never be the same again after this one!"

And man..were they right.
If you only had so long to live..and had the chance to watch one movie..then this IS the one for you.

It is FANTABULOUS!

Ni! Ni! Ni!

You wipers of other people's bottoms

you must not be a geek...don't worry not everyone can be a geek like us.

Have you seen Life Of Brian? Did you find that funny or do you generally have a Python block?

it's just a flesh wound!
