Gweat weaction!
wes,... and werry wunny weactors!
Aww thanks! we appweciate that 😭
So your father was a woman?
thuper awethome!
This film pokes fun at ALL organized religion.
They were also poking fun at British politics at the time when the liberal parties were fighting for purity of ideas while the conservative parties were consolidating power.
Monty python was a comedy group of 6 men - not a person.
Very true! That was funny to see everyone getting teased a bit 😂
One of the Python's, Terry Gilliam (the only American in the group) was also their animator and did all their cartoon titles and bits. He went on to be a legendary director in his on right... making classics like Time Bandits, Brazil, 12 Monkeys, The Fisher King, and The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen. Hes kind of a visual genius.. and his movies are all works of art. Worth looking into his stuff.
12 Monkeys was a great movie.
Reg: "Symbolism is struggling against reality."
You can't get no relatable of modernity than that!
Graham Chapman, so very obviously not Jewish. 🤣🤣🤣
I've watched several UA-cam reactions to Life of Brian and you guys are the first ones to get the "I Am Spartucus" reference.
When my wife died, I played the song "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" at her wake. I don't think everyone there thought it was appropriate but she would have.
I don't think either of us has actually seen Spartucus, but we've seen that scene before 😂 It was a great reference.
Our condolences 💙 Apparently the song is pretty popular at funerals. You'd know best what's appropriate tbh
It was at Graham Chapman's funeral, so . . .
I'm guessing that song isn't so uncommon at funerals.
Fun fact: During the Falklands War, the HMS Sheffield was hit by Argentinian missile and slowly sinking but thankfully the crew were rescued. To keep their morale up, the crew sang "Always Look On the Bright Side of Life" and even left in the line "Worst things happen out at sea, ya know" when they sang it.
Americans , its comedy , god bless brian our savior .
"Tea-time" as a meal is about four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
Fun fact: Monty Python and Pink Floyd went to primary school together 😉
I love that the Popular Front is one guy.
We didn't catch that 😂 had to go back and see what you meant. Hilarious
Monty Python, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull. Same guy.
"What have the Romans ever done for us?" Favorite scene ; )
Apparently they did everything 😂
❤
Another epic from way back in 1964 is: ZULU
(introducing Michael Caine)
Based on True Events and actual People.
The movie doesn't tell you who is good and who is bad (spoiler us Brits are the bad guys).
Private "why is it us,... why us?"
Colour Sgt Bourne "because we're here lad, nobody else, just us"
20:11 “Can we keep your balls off the screen, sir? Thank you.”
One second later: Byrdman dies a little😂😂😂
I'll be mentally preparing for everything next Monte python reaction! 😭😂
Fun reaction. Life of Brian was actually a very late Monty Python project, the second to last in fact.
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching. And that makes sense. It was already almost the 80s when this came out. Really enjoyed it tho 🔥
Please checkout Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@alanmurray5963 so I'm guessing that's the final movie they did 👀 we'll have to check it out
@@alanmurray5963 I wouldn't recommend that, the jokes from this movie wouldn't fly to them at all (nowadays)😁
1979 they already foresaw the struggle against reality... 😂
This caused total outrage around the world by the church as they said it was blasphemy. But as john Cleese pointed out its not about jesus but about a man living around the same time and place.
love how instantly supportive you were of loretta!
Of course! Some people weren't too happy about it, but who cares lol
@@byrdmanteddie it was the only appropriate response to someone coming out, like "okay, whatever you need, loretta!"
@@kloggmonkey Sure, but what do i say if my friend comes out as Napoleon, do i suggest to get some treatment or support him and enlist for his Austrian campaign?
@@worlddd7777 what if the world was made of pudding?
@@kloggmonkey Its about as absurd as lunatic wanting to be Napoleon or man wanting to be Loretta, we agree there
Never try to understand anything that Monty Python does, you will only get a head ache. They poke fun at any and every one, for any reason.
We love it! Nobody's safe 😂
Loretta still hasn't had a kid.
2000yrs and still waiting......
Hopefully she would have decided to adopt by now!
There is no "Monty Python". Monty Python's Flying Circus" is the name of the comedy troupe.
Always look on the bright side of life is a staple to be played at funerals in the UK
Wow! It's such a catchy song lol we still catch ourselves singing it randomly 😂
They knew about the “ reality” in 79. Lmao. They’d have a field today ……..
You don't think these jokes would fly today? They didn't fly then! Religious groups across Europe and the United States protested, boycotted, and banned this film. Particularly in the UK, but one of the Nordic countries banned it entirely, leading one of its neighbors to promote your ability to see it as a tourist feature! It was also banned in some city or county or shire in England until relatively recently, when the woman who plays Judith was elected to office there, and organized a big screening.
This is all from what I've read and heard, of course.
Lol wow I'm surprised but not surprised 😂 A lot of wild moments in this movie. I don't think we've seen a movie that has been banned like that before. Insane!
It was only banned in very few towns in the UK by some of the local councils. I went to see the first showing in London in Leicester square. The cinema was packed out. What made the film even funnier were the Priests and nuns outside (in their silly religious costumes) trying to stop people going to see the film. Needless to say, they didn't succeed.
@@byrdmanteddie I saw some American youtube reacters were shocked by the nude scenes but the female actress who did the full frontal said she was okay with doing that scene as the actor playing Brian was doing a full frontal in the movie too otherwise she wouldn`t have agreed to go nude, funny scenes and very British potty humour through out.
Actually it's one of their later projects. They did one other movie after this.. then they "retired' except for oflccasoonaly regrouping. They all went off on their own careers after.
Wow ok. We were only really familiar with Holy Grail and didn't realize that was a few years before this one. Thanks for the info!
Monty Python are brilliant. They had a comedy sketch show, Monty Python's Flying Circus, for a long time and there are some compilations of the funniest ones on YT that are totally worth watching.
For why they end the movie like that - it is very literally the Life of Brian. The movie starts with him being born, and ends on his death.
Have to keep in perspective, this is 1979. Animation is actually unreal for the time, and obviously some of the political dialogue is still relevant
Monty Python isn't a he, it is them. The pythons are six actors and writers. Monty Python (also collectively known as the Pythons)[2][3] were a British comedy troupe formed in 1969 consisting of Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin. The group came to prominence for the sketch comedy series Monty Python's Flying Circus, which aired on the BBC from 1969 to 1974. Their work then developed into a larger collection that included live shows, films, albums, books, and musicals; their influence on comedy has been compared to the Beatles' influence on music.[4][5][6] Their sketch show has been called "an important moment in the evolution of television comedy".[7
Yeah thats why we put the message on the screen when we said he. Thanks for the info tho
Great reaction, one of the best I've seen. Nice to see two intelligent people who 'get it'.
The "big nose" thing is them making fun of an old antisemitic stereotype.
If you look at those near last shots at ~29:49, as the camera's pulled back, you can make out Brian swinging his head back and forth, implying he finally gave up and joined in with the singing.
We didn't notice Brian joining in 😭 that's actually hilarious! Great movie 🔥
@@byrdmanteddie I mean honestly what else ye gonna do? The March proceeded a little too quickly. The scramble to release “Brian” took a little too long. And the guy in blue who got released initially claiming to be Brian was back by the end too. On top of all the other supposed “allies” of his who all failed to come rescue him.
Everyone let Brian down so hard 🤦🏾♂️😂
You all watched Blazing Saddles, correct?
We haven't seen that one yet! Worth a watch? 👀
@@byrdmanteddie It's a must see... Mel Brooks with Richard Pryor throwung his two cents in for flavor.
@@byrdmanteddie Definitely worth a watch. It's difficult to put much of it on UA-cam though since everyone lost their sense of humor.
Life of Brian's message very clear and relevent to followers of all religious and political sects, that's why they are known as a flock
I think that's what made it so great! It wasn't picking on any particular group, just made fun of everyone 😂
If you like a classic pirate story, with a lot of comedians (3 of the Pythons), watch "Yellowbeard"...
8:12 how very ‘current’
Oh my gosh, you guys are such great reactors! You know what I love about you guys? You've seen plenty of stuff already! You're just filling in! Loved that you knew enough of the Bible to catch little jokes and references. So much of this movie is just based in actual historical stuff, especially all the different denominations and factions within the same religions. It's like Blazing Saddles but for the history of religion, instead of the history of American racists. Obviously you got all that, loud and clear. LIke most Python, every time I see it, I pick up different jokes. I learn something in a book or a documentary, three years later I'm watching Life Of Brian and suddenly understand the historical reference in some joke I just figured was silly and meant nothing. lol. Ok, Reservoir Dogs, Life Of Brian.....let's see what you else you got on this channel! :)
I keep hearing about blazing saddles 🤔 is it worth a watch?
@@byrdmanteddie It's worth a watch if you know going in that it's a real burn on the history of racism. I personally am not dying to see you guys react to it. Every reactor who does it - and there are tons - gets it, but 90% of the time they're sent in blind to it, and they have to spend the first twenty minutes figuring out what they're watching. It's Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor doing the script (Cleavon Little plays the part Pryor was supposed to play, he's fantastic). It's great, it's hilarious, brilliant comedy that's rooted in historical fact, super influential. I'm not maligning it at all. But there are tons of other comedies I love and I think it's SLIGHTLY weird that of all the comedies, THAT'S the one so many dudes request. Here's what you will get in the comments: "you couldn't make that today with the 'woke' blah blah blah....cancel culture" all that whiny bulls**t. In fact, it's a direct line from "Blazing Saddles" to "Dave Chapelle Show", but you get the drift. You'll probably get people telling you to watch stuff like "Tropic Thunder" and "Airplane" after that. And defintely "Young Frankenstein", which was Mel Brooks' other big movie, which came out the same year as "Blazing Saddles". But me personally, I'm not requesting or suggesting "Blazing Saddles" and I almost didn't mention it in my original comment because I didn't want you to think I was! ::D (But it's definitely a classic for a reason. It's not a parody of westerns, it's a satire on racism and that's always a good thing. But they don't shy away from any language, let's just leave it at that!
I was raised in the middle East and the place for public lashings ( whipping) executions and other forms of punishment was literally across the street from my school. We would be in class hearing screaming, gunfire and trucks reversing as with stonings in the modern world a hole is dug with a few stones given to the crowd for them to throw then a truck would back up with stones in the back which would be dumped on them. The sound of a truck reversing ( beeping) still makes me feel sick. Its no wonder i couldn't concentrate in school. Seriously what cretin thought building a school there was a good idea.
Monty Python's "The Holy Grail" next please.
You won't regret! 😁
(if you haven't watched it)
We've seen it before but it has been a long time. We might do a rewatch sometime!
I've watched many reactions to this movie and you guys picked up on more jokes than most.
Nice! Glad not too much went over our head lol. Thanks for watching
Bwing out Bweavis
That's the trouble with people today ... They are not living in reality
What do you mean, specifically?
@@byrdmanteddie 8:23 if I look at your obviously serious remark, I think I completely understand him and I'm not surprised that you don't.
Her Roman name is Boobius Maximus!!
Capricorn gang ayyyy
It's almost our time! 🔥🐐
@@byrdmanteddie yeahhhh
44 years old movie.. i think most jokes would fly today fine... they jokes about general human situation in its sociaty so i think it'll be relevant for long long time
when pepole stopped to use "pulling your leg" as prank/gug?
Yeah we were talking about a select few jokes that wouldn't go over as well. The joke about r*pe for example. Overall the jokes were fine and really funny!
@@byrdmanteddie true, pepole wernt that tied up about some saying.. hope you watch the holy grail monty python movie aswell. enjoy regarless :)
the guards were not in on the joke
What is that on your head?
It's a silk bonnet. Protects my hair after I get it twisted
tHE STORY BEHIND THE "BIGGUS DICKUS" SCENE IS HILARIOUS! the soldiers were not told what was going to be said so they had no way of mentally preparing to not laugh. they only had one take so they couldnt laugh but they failed.
The world's craziest "try not to laugh challenge" 😭 I woulda lost too
@@byrdmanteddie if you're told to not laugh , its all you can think of doing.
That is simply not true.
First, scene 13 was not done in one take, it was done many times.
Also the guard behind Brian on the left is Bernard McKenna, he is an icon within British comedy TV, friends with Palin and Cleese and he played 4 different roles in the film and was part of the writing team.
The 4 guards together played 12 different roles in the film and were respected professional comic actors.
They were following stage direction as the guards laughing was an important part of the story as it was how Brain gets away.
18:21 The creation of Sectarianism. ha ha ha
This film was banned for many yrs and is still controversial today. Long may it live ❤
Monty python is the name of the comedy Team that performs all these It's not a real person
1/4/77 😂😂 Monty Python Monty Python and The Flying Circus it's all hilarious
Capricorn ganggg 🐐🔥 lol we'll definitely revisit some Monty python
do you guys really take it seriously or do you not understan the comedy?
Not everyone is gonna get every joke. It's not that deep man. We were laughing pretty much the whole video so obviously we didn't take it too seriously
Nobody can be in the shadow of Jésus because he is the Light of God.
Oh yeah! That's a bar right there 🔥😤
See... theres a thing called "comedy"... it's hard to explain but look into it.
@@DanJackson1977 I do not criticize. I'm just saying the truth.
Basically, it's superstitious religious nuts like you that tried to ban the film. As I mentioned in another comment, the crazy priests and nuns outside the cinemas made the film even funnier.
All religions are a fallacy. Jesus was just a mental carpenter that died and will never return😂
"Conflicting stories and beliefs " (superstition) ..... don't think the penny dropped!
you generation Z are a laugh, you don´t get anything of this movie, understand that this movie was made in 1979, and you don´t get the jokes because you are so inmerces in your own dumbness.
Ok bro 👍🏾 (not gen Z btw)
