Now, This is my favorite movie of all time. Why? I don’t know… maybe because it is funny. Anyway, this is the place to talk about it, and post quotes, and gifs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chu… (skip a bit, brother)
It really is a great film. There are so many memorable moments in it. The Black Knight and The tale of Lancelot are my favorite parts. And of course the Trojan Rabbit.
Flying Circus has the BEST skits MP has ever done. And Now For Something Completely Different also hosts many brilliant skits.
This movie was my first introduction to “real” comedy (ie: not the kiddy stuff, like jokes about death and sex and just awesomeness. I also first watched this when I was 2) and I still crack up every single time I watch it. It’s a masterpiece of humor, british humor nontheless. (IMO, always better than American humor. Have you seen anchorman?) and the acting is spot on.
Man, when I first watched this I loved it so much. I was 8, so I probably shouldn’t have, but it set in stone my love for British humor, a more “sophisticated” form of humor than what my friends liked at the time. It’s one of my top 20 favorite movies, and it’s one of my top ten favorite Broadway shows (NYC! NYC!). And remember… (Do Not watch this watch if you dislike ethnic humor, or if you’re too young.)
