    Some people are born without senses of humour. Sad but true.

    In fairness only The Life of Brian is a good movie.

    Meaning of Life and The Holy Grail, while being funny if you like that type of thing, aren't actually very good films.

    *gasp*...heretic! Hiow dare you say The Holy Grail isn't a good movie! Do I need to list off everything good in that movie?
    Did your father smell of Elderberries by any chance?

    The holy grail is cool, but you cant ignore the fact that the ending is terrible

    I know a lot of people who don't care for the whole dressing up as a woman thing, really puts them off it. I just don't see whats funny about that.

    Well spotted...

    And I'm back.

    I actually do like all the Monty Pyton films... although Meaning of Life has a few weak parts in it.

    But last year I sat down and watched The Holy Grail with a Brazilian and she didn't really get the sense of humour... and when you take that away you're not left with a very much else.

    The Life of Brian is a great film even if you don't get some of the Monty Python humour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    I liked the Meaning of Life, was quite funny and side splitting in some parts.

    Life of Brian I found to be just okay, but I have not had the good fortune to yet see the Holy Grail...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,706 ✭✭✭Bacchus


    Get that man a copy of "Holy Grail" NOW. It's the best of the lot.
    So many funny scenes...
    white rabbit, bridge crossing, rude frenchman, black knight, knights who say "nee", "rescuing" the maiden girls, "brave Sir Robin" and so on.

    To the Heretics I say "Ni!".

    In an appalling comic French accent -
    You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King," you and all your silly English K-nig-hts.

    Mike.

    LOL! I love it when people quote Monty Python. They always sound as funny as the person who originally said the line.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 116 ✭✭De Mad Yoke


    I bet kassanova wouldnt call the Python movies a milestone!
    Well I do!
