sorry to sound like a total movie idiot but what is Monty Python? =)

hib · 05-03-10, 08:55 AM

It's hard to explain... just loads and loads of comedy sketches basically...

oh sounds cool =)

hib · 08-03-10, 03:58 PM

Two of them do have storylines...
Think older-fashioned Scary Movie films. One of the surviving Pythons started singing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life (which the Pythons wrote, by the way) at Princes Philip's birthday celebration, after hiding in a group of ballet dancers. lol =D

The best ever Monty Python sketch is the "dead parrott" one, not sure but I'd say you would find it on youtube.

Monty Python were the kings of comedy without any doubt, and the movies were jam packed full of laughs, The life of Brian, The Holy Grail etc.... great fun

Oh, Yeah, The Dead Parrot...
That was great, just smashing a dead parrot against a counter to prove it isn't asleep, and we all laughed at it!

My fav was probaly... the one where they came round the guy's house and asked if they could have his liver, which melded perfectly into the Universe Song (My all-time favourite Python song!).

lol you gotta love them, I'm a firm advocate for the ministry of silly walks aswell... how they thought up that stuff is beyond me, fabulous though

Was that Flying Circus? I've only seen the movies

jobucks · 19-03-10, 02:03 PM

They used to do sketch shows on tv aswell, so it prob was flying circus. The movies are great but some of the sketches for tv were ahead of their time. Say you'd prob find a few of them on youtube! deffo worth a watch!

hib · 22-03-10, 01:44 PM

Yeah, watched it, and I loved it. The same great quality as all the sketches! Probably not my fav, but still a good sketch.
After browsing YouTube, I reckon my fav is actaully the Wooden Words sketch =)

Best sketch is definatley the dead Parrott though I think the best film is The Life of Brian - you just don't get comedy like this anymore

hib · 24-03-10, 09:53 AM

No, I agree you don'e get comedy like that anymore, but I generally prefered Holy Grail. I know Life Of Brian was good, best comedy ever, but I still prefer Holy Grail, simply for the french guys in the castle

!

lol - Holy Grail is the best film by far - though I didn't like the maeaning of life

hib · 24-03-10, 10:12 AM

Meaning Of Life had it's moments. Mr. Cleosot, for example. You know, the massive fat guy. The Death scene weren't bad either. And I mean both of them; the bit where they had the Grim Reaper round, and the bit with the guy running around and the **** with their **** ***** ********************* in nothing but ***************** and ********* *.

That was HOT!

lol
