The Holy Grail

[Malchristian]

This is the funniest movie ever! I love the killer rabbit and God. "What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?"
"African or European?"
"Why, I don't know. AAAAHHHH!!!!"
"Sir! How do you do it?"
"Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know?"

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

The movie is very funny! It started ridiculous with that weird talk and I thought the end was even more ridiculous with the cops :p
And then the french!! I thought it was one of the most funniest movies ever.

[Kitanna]

It is not only the funniest movie, it is also the greatest movie of all time. There is nothing better than that British wit and the players in the Monty Python troupe do it so wonderfully.
So many historical inaccuracies, my major in history tries to run and hide from that movie, but it simply can't. And the jokes that are witty and smart and at the same time stupid and trivial.

Dennis: If some watery tart loped a scimitar at me and I claimed to be emperor I'd be locked...strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

I love the british sense of humor anyway. It is so cool and I thought the part with the king and his son was hilarious.
And then that stupid riddle!! To pass the bridge :D Or the bunny. Never mess with a bunny.

[Tinuviel]

This movie is really funny! I love it! I love the killer rabbit too. :D

[tgraveline]

Good stuff. The holy hand grenade is an awesome piece of holy warfare. I love it how the rogue knight kill someone in the real world and all, lol.

[Cereniel]

I have never seen that movie..... My "friends" have however, therefore I can quote some lines. (A fun trick to trot out at parties!;))
"What is your faaaaav'rit color?"
"Blue, no green!"

This movie is hilarious!!! I showed it to my friend, and she was laughing all the way through!

[EveningStar]

"And we've all been rather naughty. You shall have to spank ALL of us!"

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

And when the thought they finally would find the Grail, they met their french enemies again.
Yeah! The real world scenes between where also funny.

It's certainly an excellent film, though its hard to say whether its as good as Life of Brian. What makes Monty Python's comic interpretation of the Grail legend so fantastic is the depth of historical knowledge they bring to it. For example, Terry Jones studied medieval history at Oxford (an interest which was clearly on display in his recent series, Terry Jones' Medieval Lives), which has strongly impacted his writing career. The mud-strewn appearance of the peasants is one of my favourite scenes.

I have the dvd Meaning of life but I haven't watched it yet. I wonder if this one will be as funny as The holy Grail.

[Monkeh]

The Meaning of Life is great. You should watch it as soon as you get a chance.

[slideyfoot]

Hmm. The Meaning of Life was good by normal standards, but not up to the level the Python's set themselves in the aforementioned two films. However, it does have a number of excellent sketches, like the satirical take on sex education near the start of the film, and the mock-epic battle between two office blocks was relatively entertaining (at least, its stuck in my mind in the years since I last saw the film, so memorable if nothing else :p ).

[the_gentle_one]

Oh, wow. Monty Python. Made up of the few greatest British comedians of their time. This movie is a classic, you find all ages quoting it and it's just like; Wow, that's still around? The sense of humour's great and let us not forget dear Patsy. ^ ^

"And we've all been rather naughty. You shall have to spank ALL of us!"
"Yes, and then comes the oral sex."
"ORAL SEX?!"
*Lancelot bursts in*
"Quickly come with us! You have no idea how much peril you're in!"
"Can't I have a little bit of peril?"

[sailndwntrder]

oh my goodness gracious im obsessed with that movie!!
and i would also like to add that i got to watch it in several classes for its "educational value"
7th history we watched it when we learned about the medieval era
physics in high school because of the "sparrow's velocity problem"
and in legends of king arthur because of the era

not to mention i used it for a visual in a school project once and got an A!!! hahaha i love it!
