As a Christian when this would pop up on cable I was afraid to watch because I thought it would be mocking Christ being blasphemous. That’s why I never watched this. I will give it a chance now viewing it as fiction, and have some laughs.
@@T-Rex_007 Blasphemy is a victimless crime.
What did it say on Natalie's top? I can only read from a flat surface.
8:45 LSD? To see God?
Glad you both enjoyed it. Would y’all consider watching Blazing saddles in the future?
This movie was banned in Norway for a while due to accusations of blasphemy.
The Swedes didn't miss a beat: "The movie so funny it was banned in Norway!"
I'm a Christian, and my brother and sister in law are both vicars, and it was my brother who introduced me to Python when I was five. It is the most intellectual silliness you will ever see. Thank you for watching it.
Thanks for sharing!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment😊"Oh, the humanity!"
I'm Christian and I like to watch this movie every Easter.
The scary part of this movie is that though the Pythons had no background in theology so much of the background of the movie rings true to first century Judaism and historical Jesus scholarship. Methinks the pythons had a few moles in the faculties of theology at Oxford and Cambridge…
It's a complete comprehensive piss take on every idiotic uneducated superstitious dogma mindsets (religion) through out history, sorry if you didn't understand the idiotic falicicies indoctrinated through generations after generations that this movie portraits brilliantly... entertaining video but blind indoctrinated religion is holding humanity back, educate yourself better about your own (religion=superstition)...and maybe you will laugh harder at the illogical ridiculousness of every known religion/ideology practiced today!
"You're all different!"
"Yes! We are all different!!"
"I'm not."
😂
Funniest lune in a movie full of very funny lines.
@@Rob_F8F ANY priest should double over in laughter at "SPEAK UP"
The rulebook to the role-playing game Paranoia, which was set in a futuristic closed city run by a computer that'd gone insane, had an entire page covered in little computer screens with the message "I AM AN INDIVIDUAL" on them, apart from one, two thirds of the way down, which said "I'M NOT".
The actress playing Judith was elected Mayor of a town in the 90's where this movie was banned because of her nude scene since it's release in the 70's. She was able to get support and moved to lift the ban and then it turned out that the ban was never put into place legally. Everyone had assumed it was, lol.
After she became mayor the town held an open air viewing of the movie in the town square. :)
Sue Jones-Davies was mayor of Aberystwyth from 2008 to 2009. She's Welsh, which is in the UK.
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important She just had to be Welsh with that surname.
The scene where she walks out naked she wasn’t supposed to do that, hence the look on Graham and Terrys faces; Terry Gilliam loved the look on their face so much he wanted to keep it in, so…
"What have the Romans ever did for us?" 😂
😂😂
There’s a whole thematic part of this movie poking fun at leftist movements. How they endlessly debate the fine points of their ideologies and get nothing done, how groups fragment and split because of tiny ideological differences, how they consider each other to be greater enemies than whomever the supposed oppressor is, and how, even when they are disciplined and organized and ready to lay down their lives, they are completely ineffectual (the suicide squad).
Reg (John Cleese) is the consummate leftist, leading committees, releasing statements of solidarity, and sending others to do the dirty work.
I laugh when right wingers get their underwear twisted up about “antifa” because the extreme left just isn’t organized enough to be a threat.
@@MarcosElMalo2 It's also poking fun at organised religion in exactly the same way.
@@allanmanaged5285 It's also poking fun of the historical infighting among the Jews at that time.
@@MarcosElMalo2Are you somehow under the delusion that that's a purely left wing flaw?
The old bearded guy who started a speech and then the crowd ran on was Spike Milligan. He was a legendary British comedy actor and writer. Monty Python’s comedy is based on his comedy and every member of the group said he was their hero and inspiration.
The movie was filmed in Tunisia and the weird thing is that Spike just happened to be on vacation there by pure coincidence. And that’s why he has this small cameo.
True...Spike was visiting places hed fought in the war in north africa
The used the sets and locations made for an earlier God pic.
Except he was Irish, not British.
As an atheist, I think the movie is clearly mocking religious people, groups, and institutions (in addition the Romans themselves), not really Jesus himself, and some of those institutions and leaders thereof didn’t like that, so they accused it of blasphemy.
As a Christian I agree with you. This film makes fun of silly people deciding to beleive in silly things. Jesus, the Pythons, freely admitted at the time, they could find no folly in and so made no fun off. The only dodgy bit is the crusifiction scene, which I and most christians rightly or wrongly, turn a Nelson's eye to on the basis that it is ironic and funny and is set off scene to Jesus death as an inocent man dying for others.
@@piers995 Agreed. Because Brian can also represent a man with good intentions at the wrong place and time in history, as many then might have. The big obstacle would have been the people themselves. Brian does because, of all the multiple those he knew who might have had any reason to aid him, only a single one needed to have “come through”, yet none did. A commentary again on the people of the times.
(On the zoom out, you can just make out Brian’s own head bopping to the song, meaning he finally joined in. After all, what other options was he left with?)
What happened to the "He's NOT the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy! " scene? Funniest line in the whole film.
The nudity.
I've never understood why that should be funny.
For me the funniest line is John Cleese's "how shall we fuck off O Lord".
@@notvalidcharacters Because Jesus was simply a naughty boy.
@@notvalidcharacters I do...most of all after it when someone asks "If it is not too personal, are you a virgin?" She: "If it is not too personal??? How personal do you want it to get!"
@@jaysimoes3705 That just seems like the obvious response though. The punch line there is when the crowd goes "she is, yup".
"I'm Brian... no, I'm Brian" etc. was a reference to the scene in the movie Spartacus where everybody was sticking up for the real Spartacus.
John Cleese (the centurion who insisted on proper Latin, even in the form of graffiti), actually taught Latin at his old prep school for a couple of years before Monty Python took off.
No, he did not. He was a teacher there but he did not teach Latin. In his autobiography he says he taught English, history and geography,
@@cibor Yes he was a teacher and apparently, he stole a female pupils car to drive to a conference he was key note speaker at, as he'd missed the train!
@@darren6202 So that's where he got the idea from for the movie Clockwise
@@JohnImrie :D
"Greek really is that complicated" - well, Latin was the language Brian used writing on the wall.
And my statement remains true 😜
It's all Greek to her.
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment Greek was an existing language at the time (and the language used to write most of the bible later on).
@@madmoody100"existing" is kind of an understatement :D It was basically the "English" of the time.
"It's every man's right to have babies if he wants to..." Sounds like every Disney board meeting.
😂😂
Sounds like Hollywood in general 😂
Agreed... just as stupid as a virgin birth/pregnancy..?
Cleese is turning this into a musical. The wokies are hassling him to remove this scene. Thankfully, he's refusing.
This! Thank you.
😎👍 A couple of years after this came out, there was "Time Bandits," which is sort of like half a Monty Python film. It has John Cleese and Michael Palin in it and it was directed by Terry Gilliam. It was hugely popular at the time, being the second biggest box office hit of 1981 after "Raiders Of The Lost Ark." I have no idea why, 43 years later, it seems to have been almost completely forgotten about.
Yes, great movie!
"Wait till Biggus Dickus hears of this!"
Fun Fact: When Pontius Pilate (Michael Palin) addressed the soldiers daring them to laugh, he was truly daring them. The soldier extras were ordered to stand there and not laugh, but not told what Michael Palin was going to do. Michael Palin, in fact, can barely stifle his own laughter when saying "Biggus Dickus" in front of the soldier asked if he finds the name "risible".
Also, watching y'all laugh was a lot of fun. This movie is so iconic and was very controversial when it was released. It's amazing how well it holds up even after nearly 50 years.
Thank you!
Thanks!
They were told they would not be paid if they laughed, so they tried very hard and gave the best reactions you could get.
Bull.
People keep saying this but it's bollocks.
Most of those guys were well known British TV and movie actors at the time.
George Harrison remortgaged his house to give the Pythons $4 million to make Life of Brian. He has a brief cameo. Harrison's 'Hand-Made' film company went on to produce other classics 'Time Bandits', 'Mona Lisa''Withnail and I' and 'Nuns on the Run' among others. ♥️
Withnail and I well worth a watch.
The holy grail is a comedy more in the parody genre and the absurdity of skits. Life of Brian is a satire, it's ponders the human condition in general and the absurdities we are willing to go into in the name religion, or political identity. To me they are both 9 out of 10 in their respective genres.
“Oh I ‘ang awake at night dreamin’ of bein’ spat at in the face, they must think you’re Lord Gawd Almighty Sonny!” Classic.
I’ll never forget your reaction to the rabbit attacking the knights in Holy Grail. Absolutely hilarious. Geoff from Fremantle Western Australia 🇦🇺🙏
That scene really got us 😂
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment❤️
Many of the skits in The Holy Grail were created because they didn't have the budget to shoot the movie according to the script. That's also why the six members of the team played multiple roles. Poverty-driven creativity started in the first scene, where they did the coconut-swallow sketch because they couldn't afford horses, and went through to the last scene, where they interrupted what should've been a battle scene with a police bust. Their "army" was 180 student volunteers, BTW.
One of the greatest satires on ideology and followers from any walk of life--religious, political, whatever. When I introduced my wife, who is a devout Catholic, to this one, I was afraid she might get offended, but this turned into her favorite Python flick!
I love the one part with the alien ship that makes it feel like a different movie and then it goes back to the chase scene like the space scene never happened
The best Monty Python stuff is weird and funny and extremely clever. By that metric, Life of Brian is top of the list.
Like them I rate the Holy Grail a bit higher. This one 9 out of 10 and the other 10 out of 10.
I'm not sure if it is just because i have seen both so many times at this point, but The Life of Brian, to me, is their best work. Probably because it has more to say, but also, I think, it is paced better than The Holy Grail. Anyway. Great stuff.
'Biggus Dickus' is the funniest part in any film ever...
In the Pontius Pilate scene, the guards weren’t told what was going to be said and were told to stand there and try not to laugh….red rag to a bull, their laughter that has them dragged off is genuine!!
The irony of Eric Idle calling Palin "big nose"...
The reason for the space ship absurdity is this was released 2 years after Star Wars came out, at a time when if you wanted a film made it had to be a star wars rip off, of which there were so many, whereas Python could not find anyone to finance their film. So they stuck a spaceship sequence in it purely so they could feature a spaceship prominently on the film poster as a joke, given its brief and absurd irrelevance to the plot (literally, it interrupts the plot just to put it back where it was).
I've always interpreted the spaceship scene as if it were a 'Miracle'! To the onlookers Brian leaps off the tower and miraculously lands at the bottom uninjured, a true miracle. Of course no one remembers the spaceship crashing! LOL
and there are a few groups that say Jesus was an Alien, rather than son of god
If you know your Christian Bible you will realise there is a section in there that is often interpreted as aliens visiting Earth. That's why the scene was in there. Simply highlighting the many absurd things in the Bible.
Star Wars was an obvious influence on the scene, especially with the spaceship chase… but it should also be known for context that the 1970s was a huge decade for discussion of the whole “ancient astronauts” theory, riding off the popularity of the book Chariots of the Gods? and a number of TV documentaries throughout. So aliens in biblical times was a very hot topic when this movie was being made…
"It's the Right of every MAN to have babies if he wants them!", "Don't you oppress me!"
Half a century ago, it was Absurdist Humor!
Now? REALITY has become Absurdist!
I would laugh at the irony if it wasn't so sad.
I hope you will watch Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983) as well.
And also Live at the Hollywood Bowl! Bringing them back to the sketch comedy that mad them famous. Also a theatrical release
I played Always Look On The Bright Side of Life from a speaker next to my wife at her wake. Needless to say, not everyone appreciated it, but she would have.
My mum had it at her funeral too and in fact it's one of the top ten songs to be played at funerals in the uk for decades. The number one was held by the clock noise counting down from the game show Countdown. We are a funny lots us brits. Am sure your Mrs appreciated it in her own way as did you and its a memory of your last laugh together. . I personally want everyone in fancy dress at my funeral but hey each to their own eh ? Lol. Truly sorry for your loss btw. May your life ahead be filled with laughter and happiness just as she would want it.
@Zeno_Evil Then you've gotta search for the Irish man's funeral where he has a speaker in his grave with a recorded message, it's fantastically funny.😂👍
To be perfectly honest, I’ve never seen this movie. I am also a Christian and I thought I would be offended. But if it didn’t offend you two ladies, then it shouldn’t offend me. So I will be watching the movie in the future.
A fish called wanda next
the "What have the Romans ever done for us" skit is hysterical
It really is!
There's a video on UA-cam showing two of the Pythons (I think Cleese and Palin) debating two of the clergy about the film and the latter looked like pompous asses. They took it as an assault on Christ and the Catholic Church while the Pythons argued how a religion could be hijacked.
Watched these films over and over again, one year watched HOLY GRAIL with my brother, he TOTALLY forgot how funny it was :P
The comedy in "The Holy Grail " is more obvious> one of the funniest parts of this for me was when the Centurion (John Cleese) is teaching Brian how to write Latin
The joke really being that it reminds British people of their school days back when we were taught Latin with Cleese being the class teacher.
As someone who took three years of Latin, it really hit home.
The men having the right to have babies was completely a ridiculous joke when the movie came out. Now you see it as someones "view".
Great movie!
Whose view is this? Anyone in particular?
@Rob_F8F Presumably the same halfwits responsible for tampons for men.🙄
@@Rob_F8F I was thinking this myself. I have yet to hear someone no matter how woke say this. Shows how people are not really listening to what other people are saying.
I always thought the alien spaceship sequence was merely a bit of absurdism by the Pythons but since heard they had to justify how to get Brian from the top of the tower to the ground during the chase. Absurdly brilliant.
It's a really old plot device used in Greek and Roman plays called a Deux ex Machina or Hand of the Gods where the gods would randomly step in to save the hero from certain death.
God did the same thing to Jesus, when he was facing certain death, a higher power took him up and put him back in the same spot, lucky bastard!
@@MantisEnergy According to the bible, if you believe that sort of thing, Jesus did die. He wasn't saved. He was crucified and was dead for three days before he was resurrected.
@@ronweber1402 I mean to say the belief is his spirit left the Earthly realm and returned to the same area.
@@ronweber1402
Deus = god
Ex = from
Machina = the machine
I think... now write that out 100 times!
I learned more about Christianity from this movie than any Sunday school class, just like I learned about Mormons and Scientology from South Park. Ripping on something shouldn't be construed as insulting but more like a love bite.
9:10 Latin
22:24 He's also the one that does all the animation. He's Terry Gilliam and he went on to direct movies of his own. The only American in the group.
"Yeah, Greek's really hard" 😅 Especially when it's written in Latin. 😉
You'd think the Roman alphabet might have given it away...
This movie was also banned in the Australian state of Queensland.
When I got it on VHS (here in New South Wales) they had on the box that it was banned in Queensland - obviosuly a selling poin
I've always loved the Latin lesson. Elements of this film came vividly to mind while watching DUNE part 2. When I do favors for people, I tell them "I will wewease . . . Wodewick!"
"Understand?"
"Yes, sir."
"Now write it out a hundred times."
"Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar, sir."
"Hail Caesar. And if it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off."
Fun Fact: The six Monty Python members played 40 characters.
Cameos Cameos Fact: Spike Milligan was on vacation in Tunisia while this movie was being shot and when the Python team realized he was nearby, they offered him a part. George Harrison briefly appears as Mr. Papadopolous. The costume designer Charles Knode appeared as the passer-by who saw Brian (Graham Chapman) emerge from the crashed spaceship.
Political Parody Fact: This movie pokes fun at revolutionary groups and 1970s British left-wing politics. The groups in this movie all oppose the Roman occupation of Judea, but fall into the familiar pattern of intense competition among factions that appears, to an outsider, to be over ideological distinctions so small as to be invisible, thus portraying the "narcissism of small differences" phenomenon.
Music Enthusiast Fact: Sonia Jones, singing the opening song, is often incorrectly believed by fans to be Shirley Bassey. The song was done in the style of John Barry, and fans often comment on how it sounds like Bassey singing the Goldfinger (1964) theme song. Though Jones sounds mature when she sings the song, she was actually just 16 years old at the time it was recorded. Eric Idle originally recorded Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life (1979) in his normal singing voice. After deciding this was not quite right, he re-recorded it with a Cockney accent, singing the new dub in a hotel room with mattresses pushed up against the walls. The line "Bernie, I said, they'll never make their money back" refers to Lord Bernard Delfont pulling out of financing the movie at the last minute.
What Script Fact: When Michael Palin as Pontius Pilate addressed the soldiers daring them to laugh, he was truly daring them. The soldier extras were ordered to stand there and not laugh, but not told what Palin was going to do. Palin, in fact, can barely stifle his own laughter when he asks if "Biggus Dickus" is "risible" to one of the soldiers. The famous scene required a fair bit of planning. Michael Palin, John Cleese and Graham Chapman rehearsed it many times the day before the shoot, with other extras playing the Roman centurion guards, so as to get their timing and movement right and to allow director Terry Jones to ensure the lighting, camera blocking and positioning were all correct. On the day of shooting the extras were changed at the last minute, as Jones knew that the only way the scene would work was if the extras did not know in advance what was going to be said to them so as to capture their reactions to the dialogue and Palin's delivery of it. The resulting comedy gold from this scene is mostly due to the unrehearsed reaction of the new extras. Jones made sure that the whole scene was shot in just two takes. It is believed the second take for most of the setups were the ones used in the film.
For me, greatest of all the comedies 😁
And as a Norwegian, a long overdue step forward for our culture as it contributed significantly to the debate around the application of certain archaic views and law for which we were ridiculed (and rightly so) by our Swedish neighbours 😄
I saw this in the theater in my teens and have always thought it one of the funniest movies ever made. Enjoy.
I do find Life of Brian way funnier, mainly I think because they both have that random-bunch-of-skits feeling but this feels like there’s a much more coherent and cohesive theme and overall narrative connecting them all together.
Yes, I think this is a better film because it has some budget and a coherent kind of story, but that's just my preference.
Grail is great with a lot of good scenes, but they could easily be independent of each other.
The Holy grail was funnier? 4/5? Blasphemy!! 😂 Joking aside Brian is my personal favourite but each to their own. I'm just glad you've been introduced to the Pythons. Thoroughly enjoyed watching you both enjoy some vintage British silliness.😁👍
every time I see a reaction to this, I just anticipate the Biggus scene so much lol
Great Reaction! Everyone takes Monty Python differently. I also cracked up laughing when you both Reacted to the Killer Rabbit scene in the Holy Grail.
I first watched it in 1986 and after dozens of viewings over the years it still brings me to tears.
My favourite bit of the movie is where Spike Milligan just walks off to our right as you look at the screen. It made me laugh way more than it should have when I first saw it😅
The whole laughing at Biggus Dickus was the actor playing Ceasar purposely trying to make the extras laugh
I missed the part when his mum found out he lost his virginity and a whole crowd grouped in front of their house. One asks: "Can I aks a question?" "If it is not too personal, are you a virgin?" Hahaha.
I love this movie! Works surprisingly well as the prequel to Dune 2, and just a mere 44 years beforehand!
_Dune_ came out in 1985, you prat.
After Grail someone asked Eric Idle what the next movie was, and he joked "Jesus Christ: the Musical!" But thinking about it, you can't really make fun of Jesus. He was just awesome. But you COULD make fun of people who blindly follow him (or anything, like the students on campuses today... )
This is by far my favorite. It has a stronger story and message, and solid characters. But I love them all, so there's that.
Next is Meaning of Life!
An old Jewish man is standing on the top of a hill, crying. He looks to the heavens and says "My Father, what shall I do?? My son has converted to Christianity!"
The clouds part, and a booming voice replies, "Yours too?"
PS - If you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.
I thought that Eric Idle had joked " Jesus Christ : Lust for Glory " as the movie Patton:Lust For Glory had been released just a few years earlier. Pretty sure I saw an interview with Terry Gilliam when he mentioned that.
@@WithTwoFlakesYou’re correct. I’ve heard Gilliam, Cleese and Idle himself say this in interview.
Life of Brian is so Monty Python and The next logical laugh out Loud is The Meaning of Life , always a Light Hearted Force of Laughter inside the Light
❤️❤️❤️
☺️☺️
You can skip meaning of life
Even they admired they did it so they could stop having to make films
4:20 you missed out the buying stones " a big flat one,and a bag of gravel"
I am with you. I think Holy Grail is the funniest of the movies. Great reaction.
Thank you!
You haven't seen the wildest of the Pythons until you've seen The Meaning of Life or Fawlty Towers
Fawlty Towers was just Cleese, none of the other Pythons were involved. Very funny anyway though and well worth a reaction.
The Meaning of life to me scores a 4 out of 10. Not one scene made me laugh.
Ladies my first time visiting your channel. Yes the baby in the crib is Brian. Per all Monty Python this is crazy.. In the stoning segment this mob is out for blood!! They don't seem to care who it is.. Ladies order your wolf nipple chips now! You two need to decide if you are followers of the shoe or the gourd. prepare yourselves for a naked butt..
Always look on the bright side of life!!
Lots of people recommending Python movies, but why not check out the original Monty Python's Flying Circus series?
'Dead Parrot', 'The Spanish Inquisition', 'How Not To Be Seen', 'The Ministry of Silly Walks', people still remember this show almost 60 years later for good reason.
So many hilarious sketches, one of the most unhinged and unpredictable shows ever concieved.
(Edit : Why did autocorrect think 'Puthon' is a real word? Ugh.)
IMO the funniest film ever made.
They never explicitly say so, but I always think the moving star the 3 wise men are following at the beginning is the space ship in orbit. I think theres some sort of moral there about events playing out on a much bigger 'galactic' scale than religion which is very much earth centric
7:11 these blokes were prophetic.
I like LoB and HG about the same, for different aspects. I've always taken this film as a jab at organized religion and following one for all the wrong reasons. As Brian says. "You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves! You're all individuals!"
Timeless classic
Your super nice introduction style is very infectious I was smiling with y'all even before the movie started lol! keep on smiling it suits you both!
That’s so kind of you to say ❤🤗
Aww thank you!!
I never noticed until now that HUGE mic 🎤 that just caught my eye 👀 🤭
I’ve never watched Monty Python’s Life of Brian before and I’m glad to have watched it with your guy’s reaction to it. Thanks Michelle and Natalie “the red” for another entertaining video 😊
Thanks for watching!!
Life of Brian is the best of Python's movies IMO. 'What have the Romans ever done for us?'
There's a funny fact, some will say it's not true and others says it is, but I wanna believe it's true; On the Biggus Dickus scene the actors playing the guards were told not to laugh or they wouldn't get paid, so them holding their laughs in were genuine.
The movie is funded by George Harrison of The Beatles. The script got rejected by other movie companies because of its content, but George got to read the script and loved it so much that he actually took out a loan of his house so that they could get the budget to make the movie. When asked why, George said; I wanna see the movie...
Also, please do Monty Python's Meaning of Life and And Now For Something Completely Different =)
Thanks!
Excellent choice. I love the song "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life", when one of the Royal Navy destroyers was sunk in the 1982 Falklands War the survivors sat on the capsized and sinking ship while singing the song and waiting for rescue.
The ship was HMS Sheffield. Her Captain, Sam Salt [no I am not makimg the name up - went on to become a Rear Admiral in the Royal Navy] on being repatriated to the UK after the sinking recounted the story to the media. He stated he was crying with pride as he saw the crew [some severly wounded and badly burnt] sat on the forward part of the ship as it was literally burning underneath them spontaneously burst into the song awaiting to be taken off the sinking Destroyer. A few years later in the late 1980's an Army colleague of mine, whilst very drunk one night at a mess function, told me of how, post the war, when he was serving as in the RN as a Clearance Diver he was tasked with colleagues to dive on the wreck of Sheffield under great secrecy, not to recover the bodies of the dead seaman still on board, but to recover the nuclear depths charges that, due to the speed with which she had been deployed, were still on board when she sailed to the South Atlantic and had gone down with the ship. He recounted the zero visibility and moving by touch alone and coming across a dead crewman literally in your face. I still remember it vividly as it was the same night as the Zebrugge Ferry Disaster. Brave men, one and all.
Happy Tuesday! Great reaction! I enjoyed it! Have a wonderful day!
Thank you! You too!
You're welcome! 😊
I too have always preferred Holy Grail for the reasons you cited. Thanks for this reaction!
Thanks for watching!
SUPER FUNNY MOVIE AND SEEING NATALIE STUNNING CUTE SMILE MADE MY DAY, THANKS BOTH OF U FOR A GREAT REACTION LOVE FROM DENMARK
Thank you!!
Right back at u😉
its time for the meaning of life
the meaning of life is great
Holy Grail is funnier, but Life of Brian is a real movie, that's how I see it
After the studio backed out of financing the film; George Harrison became the main source of money and even did a cameo in the movie. He made a nice profit as the film became a modest hit
“I’m not the messiah!!!”
“I say you are lord and I should know, I’ve followed a few.”
Fine, I am the messiah….NOW FU@& OFF!!!”
“How shall we fu@& off lord?”😂
Why pick favorites? I tend to just like their comedy style, it's deadpan. It's definitely adult humor. As a teen I didn't get it. Throw some life problems at a young person and the lightbulb might go on. Many people are used to laugh tracks to tell them when to laugh. Monty is just pure silliness. It uses a lot of advanced language skills that are inherently British. Many people don't like this sort of humor. Completely unrelated but Robert Shaw went on the Johnny Carson Show once and said in order to play the part of Winston Churchill he had to actually contract syphilis(Churchill's cause of death). They believed him . He went on other shows and they believed him. He was threatened by the producers with lawsuits. I pull legs regularly. So many people cannot understand dry humor. They want to hear ethnic jokes about 3 so and so's or some knock knock jokes or something. Once Python gets into your system it is rather like an incurable disease and you WILL find yourself breaking into character with perfect strangers who are only too obliged to play along. Python cast members often make remarks about this very American trait.
“He is not the Messiah, he is a very naughty boy.” I said the same when MSNBC called Obama a Messiah figure.😳
To me there are two considerations: which movie is "funnier" and which movie is more well-rounded. To me Life of Brian is not just trying to be funny, but also uses humor as a medium to extend some thought provoking ideas about the application of "blind faith" and not thinking for yourself. Holy Grail is just trying to be funny. Regardless, to me personally, Life of Brian is also the slightly funnier movie, though I think both are hilarious.
I think every comedy has a main theme and that is trying to be funny. I think The Holy Grail was better at it. I was 14 in 1984 when I first saw it on a gloomy summerday with nothing to do. Watched it in the house of a friend. After 1 minute we were roling over the floor laughing, one minute later pain was the dominant feature in my stomach due to the unstoppable laughter. What a movie. Life of Brian was close but to my mind the scene with the coconuts, the invincible knight, Alice/herbert in the castle were unparallelled. So so funny.
I agree that Holy Grail is the best.
Life of Brian is brilliant but very topical....it makes me laugh a hell of a lot, and it is in my top 10 comedies all time, but Grail simply slaughters me.
😇Wonderful and fun movie reaction. Thanks for bringing joy to your many viewers.
Like the description of mocking the brutality of the Roman era. Of the films Holy Grail also my favorite of Monty Python.
Thank you!!
FINALLY!!!!!!
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
😁😁
You are right too holy grail is far more wackier but both good in their different ways.
LOVE Monty Python and though this is a great movie, I'm a die hard Holy Grail Fan, also watched the show religiously (favorite skits are I'm A Lumberjack and Dead Parrot. I had the manuscript to the Holy Grail while I was in the in Army and when on field exercises, we'd get together in the GP Medium tent at the end of the day and do a reading of our favorite parts, of course done in really bad, over exaggerated accents. We'd end the long, rough days with laughter. It was a great time had by all. I can't even say how many times I've seen Holy Grail. Love your reactions ladies. Keep up the great work and stay safe.
Thanks!
I said before im from Ireland this was banned. And stayed banned until the mid 90s. ( most had seen it already) . ,( black market)
now try THE MEANING OF LIFE
Always look on the bright side of life.
Amen!
Yes! 🙌🏻
Seen this movie in the movie theater, funny comedy, been a long time since I see it, good review by u beautiful girls 😍👍😎👌
Thanks!
I think less in the way of quick gags is the trade off Life Of Brian made in return for being more of an actual film than Holy Grail.
Interesting comments. John Cleese said that "Life of Brian" was a better movie than "Holy Grail".
Does not mean it is so, just his opinion.
9:15 Since this movie is about the Romans, the Greek language really has nothing to do with it.
Of course you wanted to mention the Latin language, but you made a slip of the tongue , didn't you?😁
However, you're still better than another UA-camr who called this movie scene an "English language lesson".
You two are both so fun and pretty! 😍
YES!!!!! Try A Fish Called Wanda and Time Bandits
Oh wow I never saw this movie ! This was a very entertaining first watch reaction
Top movie, police squad series comedy music Stevie Ray Vaughan Texas flood live at the el mocambo watched him play for three hours without stopping just unbelievable 😅😊😊
Holy Grail was much more absurdist humor, Life of Brian was more of a political satire.
Of course, they both have absurdist humor and political satire, I'm just talking about the proportion.
So Holy Grail tends to be more funny for those of us who are not that familiar with the politics of the time.
May I suggest you two locate and watch Monty's Funny Walks or the Lumberjack Song or the dead parrot skit.........
