Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Mønty Pythøn ënd dër Høly Grailën)

[Brock Landers]

Holy Grail fans, stand proud!


I absolutely love this movie. Probably the funniest movie I've ever seen. Does anyone else agree? Just the entire movie hurts my sides. To some the humor of the Python's may seem dated, but that's the entire point. It's dry and witty, and 10x more funnier than anything Sandler or Schneider will EVER do.


"My son, when I die, you get all this!"
"What, the curtains?"

[CoanBread751]

Its really funny but not the funniest. There are movies out there I think are fuinnier. I also like LIFE OF BRIAN more than THE HOLY GRAIL but yea. Python was before its time. This movie is hilarious but it seems if I watch it more than once a year it just isnt that funny.

and BTW schneider and Sandler suck.

I know, and I agree. Though Sandler was great in Punch Drunk Love, Schneider deserves the "Biggest Douche in the Universe" award.

[Citizen Kane]

We're watching it in European History. :D

[equipe]

Holy Grail is one of the funniest films of all time, no doubt. Nothing that any current comedian could match in pure laughs and originality.

[droidguy1119]

Schneider = not funny
Sandler = can be funny

Monty Python and the Holy Grail = always, always, always funny

[equipe]

Well I know what movie I'm gonna watch tonight. Thanks for bringing it up Brock :)

Glad I could be of service, dude.


"SHE'S A WITCH!"
"And she turned me in to a Newt!"
**very long, awkward silence**
"....I, I got better"

[droidguy1119]

"Actually I think I'm feeling better, I think I'll go for a walk --"
"Look, you're not fooling anyone, you know."

[Chuckles]

HAHAHA this is my favorite comedy ever. The first time I saw it I missed half the jokes because I was too busy almost peeing my pants.

[Hollywood3016]

I love this movie...but it is at it's best when watched with a group of people...same goes for Jackass the movie.

I love this movie! :)

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.


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.


There are some who call me... Tim.


Message for you, sir. (This is my incoming email wav file.)

You must bring us.... A SHRUBBERY!

"Brave Sir Robin ran away, bravely ran away away.
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about,
And valiantly, he chickened out."

Such a lovely movie.

3-HEADED KNIGHT: "Why have you come here?!"
MINSTREL: "To Fight --"
ROBIN: "No! No! Just passing through!"

Yes it is great...but it's one of those movies I love so much I can't stand people misquoting them ;)

"Someday lad....all of this will be yours!"
"What, the curtains?"

That's a lot closer anyway, sorry ;)

[Brock Landers]

Ahh, boo to you and yours! ;)

"She's got huge...tracts of land..."

[sgr818]

One of the greatest films of all time.

Listen, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power dervives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony...Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!...if I went around sayin' I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me they's put me away

Ver, very far OT: Brock: Arent ya from the US? how come you have the letter "ø" at your keyboard? (its a scandinavian letter)

[flukeman]

Brock, you read my mind :D It's one of the funniest things ever. I feel sorry for the people who just don't "get" it.

It's funny you should pick this quote. Antioch came up in one of the readings in church this past Sunday, and I could barely contain myself thinking of this.

I used to have that as my incoming ICQ sound :)

"You manky Scots git! I soiled my armor I was so scared!"

"You yellow bastards, come back here and take what's coming to you! I'll bite your legs off!"

Sir Bedevere: What makes you think she's a witch?
Peasant 3: Well she turned me into a newt.
Sir Bedevere: A newt?
Peasant 3: ...I got better.
Crowd: BURN HER ANYWAY.




Lancelot: Look, my liege.

Sir Galahad: Camelot.
Lancelot: Camelot.
Patsy: It's only a model.
King Arthur: Shh.




Knights of Camelot: [singing] We're knights of the Round Table, we dance whene'er we're able. We do routines and chorus scenes with footwork impec-cable, We dine well here in Camelot, we eat ham and jam and Spam a lot. / We're knights of the Round Table, our shows are for-mi-dable. But many times we're given rhymes that are quite un-sing-able, We're opera mad in Camelot, we sing from the diaphragm a lot. / In war we're tough and able, Quite in-de-fa-ti-gable. Between our quests we sequin vests and impersonate Clark Gable / It's a busy life in Camelot
[solo]
Knights of Camelot: I have to push the pram a lot




King Arthur: On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place.



Cleric: [reading] And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats and large chu...




Sir Galahad: What a strange person.

[jbailey84]

truely one of the greatest comedies ever

"You tit! I soiled my armour I was so scared!....I've done it again." - Sir Robin

"Listen, lad. I built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was swamp. Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands."

"No, it's too perilous."

The part where I laugh hardest is when Arthur says "Diiiiismount!" and they get off the 'horses.'

[Drogobaggins]

Man, I gotta watch this movie again. Tonight. It's so great.

[bloomluver]

[Warren]

The coconuts were genius.


"Are you saying an African Swallow....." :D

"Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?"

"Well, they could have it on a line."
"What, under the dorsal guiding feathers?"

We're Knights of the Round Table,
We dance when ere we're able,
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot,
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.
We're Knights of the Round Table,
Our show are formidable,
But many times, we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable.
We're Opera mad in Camelot,
We sing from the diaphragm
a looooooot.
In war we're tough and able,
Quite indefatigable,
Between our quests we sequin vests,
And impersonate Clark Gable.
It's a busy life in Camelot,
I have to push the pram a lot.

[jbailey84]

We are now no longer the knights who say 'Ni!' We are now the knights who say 'Ekky-Ekky-Ekky-ba-clang-zoo-boing-rahhrrarrr'.

I honestly dont see what is so great about monthy python and the holy grail?! There are very few parts that I found amusing and it is just too loud and obnoxcious for me.

You found Monty Python "too loud" and whatever the hell "obnoxcious" is.....


Would you like to watch something more to your liking? Like say, "Pokemon's first movie"?
