Hey, Does anyone else love Monty Python and the Holy Grail? I thought it ruled. My favorite part is this,

King Arthur, when they come across the wizard playing with fire,

"Who are you that can summon fire and tinder?!"

"I...am an enchanter!" (then the enchanter throws fire like a flame thrower.)

"Yes, I can see that, but what is your name good sir?"

"There are some who call me.....................Tim?"


F-ing hilarious in the movie. I dont know if you can get the full effect here. Anyway, anybody else?

i've actaully seen all 3 Monty Python movies. Holy Grail is the best, though. Life of brian was kinda stupid, and Meaning of Life was kinda disturbing.

-Holy grail: agreed
-Life of Brian: It's not "kinda stupid" it's actually f-ing hilarious, especially if you know the bible very well (not me, though), since there's this one scene (just an example) in the movie where you can see all kinds of images from the bible in the background. It has a few hidden things in it. And who didn't laugh with the names of the local Roman ruler and his wife (Ludus Lullus and Incontinentia if I'm not mistaken?)
-Meaning of Life: Imo almost right up there with The Holy Grail.

My fave bit is the witch trial.

Scientist: Witches float, yes.
Crowd: Yes.
Scientist: What else floats?
Crowd: Wood, clouds (etc.), A DUCK.
Scientist: Excelent a duck, If this woman weighs the same amount as a duck then she is a witch.

Fantastic.

I love Holy Grail! I have the DVD set... Life of Brian was good, but not as good, and the Meaning of Life was just weird (but that short before the movie was classic, you know where the old insurance agents take fan blades as swords and their building sails off).

"I bet you're -blam!-."
"No I'm not."

"I fart in your general direction."

"It's only a flesh wound."

"One day lad, all this will be yours."
"What, the curtains."

"She's got HUGE..... tracks of land."

Classic movie. I'm going to go watch it right now.
