This is probably the least offensive religious sketch ever. Jesus and his disciples are not the target of comedy here. It's Mel Brooks's character and his lack of awareness.
@Warthog-faced buffoon - Hell was not created by God. Hell was created by all the negative and hateful and selfish energy of people like you. It is the repository people like you have made for yourselves. And guess what? It really won't be funny when you get there. And you won't go there because God judged you.. you'll go there because you have no choice - because your actions in this life are making your path, and the path YOU chose to walk is that of a warthog faced buffoon. Hate, derision and the reject of God. God will not drag you kicking and screaming into salvation. You don't want it? Well.. then you won't receive it. And good Lord... do I pity you. I'm not trying to make you a bible thumper, I'm trying to save your soul. Step one - Stop being an A hole, stop attacking and demeaning God and be thankful for once in your life. And don't tell me you're an atheist. You people never stop talking about (and demeaning) this God you claim doesn't exist. When was the last time you insulted the easter bunny? Right... never. You know God exists, you just hate and despise him for some reason. Maybe it's time to grow up... and walk down a different path.
Fun Fact: John Hurt took the role of Jesus as a kind of breather after another more intense project and enjoyed working with Brooks so much he told him that if he ever wanted him back for anything to say the word. Years later Brooks would make good on it by asking Hurt reprise the role of Kain for a quick Alien riff in Spaceballs.
Wow, didn't recognize John Hurt. I've heard of the relaxed way Mel Brooks liked to run his set. If the set was too quiet, he would ask people to make noise. I think he knows that any stress on set would translate into his films no matter how skilled or professional the actors were.

@FuckYouGoogle Being hateful is probably as far away from being real as you can be. You're rejecting societies values because you're incapable of creating your own and just being yourself. Hopefully someday you find something more fulfilling to do with the limited time you're granted on this plane.
FuckYouGoogle Woah, calm down. No need to call someone an infant, just because they don't know who Mel Brooks is. Hell, I never knew who she/he is until this video.
THIS is how you put religious humor in a comedy. It's not picking fun or attacking and it even used Jesus in the skit. It was Mel you're laughing at not a faith. Very hard to do and well done.
If this was written today the “Jesus” “what?” Section would have gone on for like 2 minutes and then been done to death on every late night show. The subtlety of it all and the just throwing every joke out there and seeing what sticks nature of it is what makes this work so well. This is my favorite Mel Brooks movie just because he wasn’t so constrained to a genre and could just really let it fly.
It's pretty interesting that John Hurt played both Jesus as well as voiced the Horned King, who is pretty much the devil and he was amazing in both roles. Such a gentle and soothing voice here, yet so diabolical and terrifying as the horned king. He had a wide range.

I know it's a comedy, but John Hurts voice is so chillingly soulful, calm yet intense. Always makes me think of the amazing voice of Strider in the Bakshi Lord Of The Rings. Amazing.
And it only took UA-cam 14 years to finally recommend this video to me and a lot of other people. Fascinating how sometimes it can take a video over a decade to go viral.
This scene is simplistic brilliance. Takes years of comedy writing, knowledge, masters teaching you their trade to pull something like this off and make it look so easy.
Best part about this is that Brooks when he enters has that look that he is invested in the story but then remembers he should do his job and take orders.
Yup. That’s Art Metrano as Leonardo. “And someday.... I’m gonna be captain.... and every rookie.... will go down on his knee.... and they’ll call me captain Mausah..... wowsa wowsa....”
Was it that low budget? It had lots of costumes, set designs and location shots, plus an awful lot of famous actors. They weren’t Burt Reynolds, but quite a few had to be making a lot of money for appearances at the time.
I remember the first time I watched it like 30 years ago. I got paroxysm of laughter and had sore belly muscles the next day. I fell off the couch, tears running down my face, had to somehow stop the VCR and was nearly dying. My boyfriend back then looked at me (he is American, I'm German) and had no clue at all what I was laughing about. And usually he was the one with the absurd sense of humor.
The Innkeeper: *Look at this man! He comes in to my business, claiming to be the son of God; turns my water into wine; I ask him to pay, he tells me charity is a virtue; and now he's feeding the multitudes with my seven loaves and two fish.* Jesus: _Yea, so I say onto you, that whomsoever believes in me shall not perish, but have everlasting food._ The Innkeeper: *The Pontius will hear about this!*
Honestly Comicus was being a pretty good waiter, he asked if they were all together or separate tickets, and he spotted the richest person at the table, Judas, asking if he wanted any mulled wine or not.
As a believer in Jesus Christ, I always knew this movie part skirted blasphemy, but Mel Brooks mostly made the jokes more about the situation, rather than one specific person. Could never make this film in 2022 how times change!
make it so, number one Muslims can be even touchier than Christians, both get so upset if you dare suggest anything bad about their gods and prophets who seem to me less moral then even most ordinary people...
Say what you want about Dracula Dead and Loving it or Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Mel is greatly missed these days. Personally, I LOVE Robin Hood, but some people are meh on it. Dracula was okay. Still wish he'd go for one more round. I guess the theater has all his attention these days.
