I was brought up on Monty Python and find it hilarious. It is one of those comedies that you either love or hate. What is your view?? Love it or hate it?????

Yea, I love Monty Python. I think people either get British humour, or they don't. Sometimes, the problem is they can't understand because of the accent or the British slang. But I've seen people who at first didn't get it, then suddenly the lightbulb went in. Flying Circus can be like that. Sometimes. it's not meant to be funny so much as absurd. I love absurd! BTW, Am I the only one who thinks Life of Brian is funnier than Holy Grail?

I think The Life of Brian is funnier than Holy Grail. Have you seen the Lego version of the Camelot song in the extras on the dvd. I love it!

I knew we could find common ground. I have to admit that they are hit and miss with me... I loved Holy Grail, loved most of Life of Brian, but almost slept through Meaning of Like and Jabberwocky. I quit counting the number of times I'd seen Holy Grail at around 30 times.. and that was back before video.. when the only way you could see it was at a midnigh movie. :~D

I love Monty Python! One of my all-time favorite movies is The Life of Brian. I really like The Holy Grail movie a lot, too. A lot of the stuff in their Flying Circus tv show was over my head, though. I assume it's the "British humour"?

Its good to meet a Python fan. Although I am biased, I think people who like Monty Python humour are intelligent and see above most mundane humour!! Cheers!!!

Honestly, I have never watched Monty Python, but a lot of my friends just love that movie. I'm not sure why I have never taken the time to sit down and watch it. What do you find so funny about it? Is it considered slapstick or sly humor?

You just have to watch - then you'll understand.
