Aha! A banana, we haven't done a banana yet! (from how to defend yourself against an atacker armed with fruit)

'tis but a scratch!
Wow, the memories. Recently me and a few friends redid "The Holy Grail" for english class. There was an analytical part about the ledgend of King Arthur and such, but the 1hr movie was the main focus of the project. We stuck to the script for a good portion of it, but we did modify bits. Just imagine, 5-6 teenagers running around in costume with coconuts... Good times. |
Jeeze every year this happends. I rember in the old forums in the technical forum duing the off season I started a big thread mostlyy of people reciting lines of holy grail.
I also have seen a Sketch from the show that was never released. It was so funny, it was a fairy tale. One thing ill tell you about it, the king played odd songs all day on his hammond organ. Andrew |
You forgot two of the very best:
"The Piranha Brothers/Spiny Norman" ("Dinsdale had a reputation for being cruel." "He wasn't, really." "But I heard he nailed your head to the floor." "Well, yes. But I deserved it.") and the always-popular "The Fish-Slapping Dance" And for the true aficionados, there is the "Upper Class Twit Of The Year Award." -dave --------------------------- Albatross! Got any Chocolate Coated Crunchy Frogs? |
Your arm's off!
No it isn't. Well what's that then? Oh it's just a flesh wound...Come on You Panzy! lol...ohhh its great :D |
I like the Ministry of silly walks. And for days after seeing the Albatross skit I kept wanting to randomly holler out "Albatross".

Spanish Inquistion in the Courtroom is a great one:
Judge : Contempt of court. However, I probably shouldn't punish you, because we're so short of judges at the moment, what with all of them emigrating to South Africa. ...I'm going tomorrow, I've got my ticket. Get out there and get some decent sentencing done. Ooh, England makes you sick! Best I can manage here is life imprisonment. It's hardly worth coming in in the morning. Now, South Africa! You've got your cat of nine tails, you've got four death sentences a week, you've got cheap drinks, slave labour and a booming stock market. I'm off, I tell you. Yes, I'm up to here with probation and bleeding psychiatric reports. That's it, I'm off. That's it. Right! Well, I'm going to have one final fling before I leave, so... I sentence you to be burnt at the stake. Judge Kilbraken : Blimey! I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition. (Court reacts expectantly. Nothing happens.) (Cut to suburban house. The three members of the Spanish Inquisition suddenly bolt out of the door and down the path. Dick Barton music. Cut to them leaping onto a bus.) Ximinez : Two, er, three for the Old Bailey please. (Credits start superimposed.) Biggles : Look, they've started the credits. Ximinez : Hurry. Hurry. Hurry. Biggles : Come on hurry. Hurry! (We see shots of them coming through London. Credits keep rolling.) Ximinez : There's the lighting credit, only five left. (More credits.) Ximinez : H**l, it's the producer - quick! (They leap off the bus into the Old Bailey. Cut to court room. They burst in, and...) Ximinez : Nobody expects the Sp... (CAPTION: 'THE END' appears) ...Oh bugger! |

Aw Rwight We'll Cawl It A Drawh!
One of the all time funniest scence in movie history. And I love Terry Gilliam's animation("It's the dreaded beast of Ahhhhhhh...!").
I would hope none of our animators suffer a massive heart attack in the middle of a scene but it might be fun to have a rampaging animated dragon terrorizing the Site. hmmmmmmm.... Either I'm having a stroke or I feel the sudden rush of inspiration comming upon me...... Nih:p |

hahahahahahahha uh...... *stop breating*

"Have you any cheese at all?"
"No sir, I was intentionally wasting your time." "Sorry, but I'll have to shoot you." "Righto then." *bang* Have to love the chese shop sketch. Upper class twit of the year is definately one of the funnier sketches though, and Grail is one of the greatest movies ever made. |
I personally liked the Ministry for Silly Walks the best; I just can't remember how the sketch was called...

(Film of Hitler rally. Hitler speaks; subtitles are superimposed.)
Hitler: MY DOG'S GOT NO NOSE. Soldier: HOW DOES HE SMELL? Hitler: AWFUL. |
...DENNIS: I told you, We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune, we take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
ARTHUR: Yes. DENNIS: ... But all the decision of that officer ... ARTHUR: Yes, I see. DENNIS: ... must be approved at a bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs. ARTHUR: Be quiet! DENNIS: ... but a two-thirds majority ... ARTHUR: Be quiet! I order you to shut up. OLD WOMAN: Order, eh -- who does he think he is? ARTHUR: I am your king! OLD WOMAN: Well, I didn't vote for you. ARTHUR: You don't vote for kings. OLD WOMAN: Well, how did you become king, then? ARTHUR: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held Excalibur aloft from the bosom of the water to signify by Divine Providence ... that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur ... That is why I am your king! OLD WOMAN: Is Frank in? He'd be able to deal with this one. DENNIS: Look, strange women lying on their backs in ponds handing out swords ... that's no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. ARTHUR: Be quiet! DENNIS: You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you! ARTHUR: Shut up! DENNIS: I mean, if I went around saying I was an Emperor because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, people would put me away! ARTHUR: (Grabbing him by the collar) Shut up, will you. Shut up! DENNIS: Ah! NOW ... we see the violence inherent in the system. ARTHUR: Shut up! [PEOPLE (i.e. other PEASANTS) are appearing and watching.] DENNIS: (calling) Come and see the violence inherent in the system. Help, help, I'm being repressed! Oh, thats a great one. Then there's the ever-popular Brave Sir Robin... Bravely bold Sir Robin, rode forth from Camelot, He was not afraid to die, Oh Brave Sir Robin, He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin. He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken, To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin. His head smashed in, and his heart cut out, And his liver removed, and his bowels unplugged, And his nostrils raped, and his bottom burned off, And his pen - ROBIN: Er, That's ... That's enough music for a while, lads. It looks as though like there's dirty work afoot... Anywhoo, for all your riciting and/or copy/pasting purposes :), here's a link to the full Holy Grail script. Yes. The whole script. linky Also, it's not Monty Python, but Mel Brooks' Spanish Inquisition from History of the World, Part I is great too. *starts humming* The Inquisition, lets begin! The Inquisition, look out sin! We're on a mission, To convert the Jews *nuns* Jew-Jew-Jew-Jew-Jew-Jeeeews.... |
i love them all....
the holy grail life of brian meaning of life dead parrot spam killer joke (hitler) bicycle repair man ministry of silly walks argument clinic mosquito hunting lumber jack they're all great |
No one has mentioned the "You're using coconuts" bit from the Holy Grail (right at the begining)...
It is hilarious :) |
"GOD: Arthur! Arthur ... King of the Britons ...
GOD: Oh, don't grovel ... do get up! If there's one thing I can't stand, it's people grovelling!! ARTHUR: Sorry ... GOD: And don't apologize. Every time I try to talk to someone it's sorry this and forgive me that and I'm not worthy and ... " Need I say more? -Andy A. |
God: Now what are you doing?
Arthur: I'm averting my eyes. God: Well don't. Any line in holy grail is funny... Arthur: "Excuse me, miss..." Pesent: "What do you mean miss?" Arthur: "Sorry I have a cold" And we cannot forget... "Bring Out your dead!" |
"She turned me into a newt"
"You don't look like a newt" "I got better" |
More now:
Climbing North Uxbridge Road -Some people would say your crazy -Well.... |
why, Bicycle Repairman, of course!
Well, the dirty hungarian phrasebook was good too. As was how not to be seen. Gaaa! I like them all!:) |
I should have voted for Spam, Spam, Spam.
I've only ever seen Holy Grail and Life of Brian. Great stuff. |
How to choose, how to choose?
They are all good but I like this one "Sir, I want to get out of the army." "Why?" "There are tanks and people with machine guns, someone could get hurt!" "Then why did you join the army? "For the travel and the water skiing, but I wrote specifically on my application 'no killing'." "Johnson, are you a pacifist?" "No, I'm a coward!" |
I voted for Monty Python, but I have to say the "how not to be seen" is very, very close.
Dont forget the Special Olympic! |
I can't believe no one's mentioned the holy hand grenade!
"Pull the cross off. Count to three. No more, no less. Then throw." "1... 2... 4..." |
yes, true, all of these are wonderful (though I've not seen the Life of Brian... gotta get my dad out of the house for that one), but I must admit, the one that got my entire suite at camp rolling on the floor laughing was the "Man with a Tape Recorder Up His Nose". it was 10:00 at night (which for camp is rather late), but still...
oh, and i can not forget "How not to be seen". it was the first Python Sketch I quoted incessantly to drive my family mad. /me tears up dramatically |
Quote:
But since it's been said, i'll have to say- "I Fart in your general direction. I unclog my nose at you." ..etc etc. until barnyard animals come flying over the castle wall. also- the "we found a witch" sketch heh heh, "what floats... "uh, ducks, twigs, very small rocks..." etc. "bring out yer dead" Good Stuffs. |
Quote:
Finally! The witch sketch is unlaughabeatable- it's absolutely ridiculous! BEDEMIR: Quiet, quiet. Quiet! There are ways of telling whether she is a witch. CROWD: Are there? What are they? BEDEMIR: Tell me, what do you do with witches? VILLAGER #2: Burn! CROWD: Burn, burn them up! BEDEMIR: And what do you burn apart from witches? VILLAGER #1: More witches! VILLAGER #2: Wood! BEDEMIR: So, why do witches burn? [pause] VILLAGER #3: B--... 'cause they're made of wood...? BEDEMIR: Good! CROWD: Oh yeah, yeah... BEDEMIR: So, how do we tell whether she is made of wood? VILLAGER #1: Build a bridge out of her. BEDEMIR: Aah, but can you not also build bridges out of stone? VILLAGER #2: Oh, yeah. BEDEMIR: Does wood sink in water? VILLAGER #1: No, no. VILLAGER #2: It floats! It floats! VILLAGER #1: Throw her into the pond! CROWD: The pond! BEDEMIR: What also floats in water? VILLAGER #1: Bread! VILLAGER #2: Apples! VILLAGER #3: Very small rocks! VILLAGER #1: Cider! VILLAGER #2: Great gravy! VILLAGER #1: Cherries! VILLAGER #2: Mud! VILLAGER #3: Churches -- churches! VILLAGER #2: Lead -- lead! ARTHUR: A duck. CROWD: Oooh. BEDEMIR: Exactly! So, logically..., VILLAGER #1: If... she.. weighs the same as a duck, she's made of wood. BEDEMIR: And therefore--? VILLAGER #1: A witch! CROWD: A witch! you've gotta watch it to understand... |
ahhhh!? there have even been some members of team 180 to post already!

S: This is a dog license with the word 'dog' crossed out and 'cat' written
in in crayon. C: The man didn't have the right form. Spectator I: I think it was "Blessed are the cheesemakers". Bearded Man's Wife: Aha, what's so special about the cheesemakers? Bearded Man: Well, obviously it's not meant to be taken literally; it refers to any manufacturers of dairy products. |

Re: Favorite Monty Python Sketch/Movie
First time i ever say holy grail my friend was so determined that i see the subtitles- they were quite amusing... it's a perfect opening for a hilarious movie!
"Including the majestic moose".... "A moose once bit my sister"... "We apologize for the fault in the subtitles. those responsible have been sacked." ..."Mind you ,moose bites can be pretty nasty"... "We apologize again for the fault in the subtitles. those responsible for sacking the people who have been sacked have been sacked." ... "Moose trained to mix concrete and sign complicated insurance forms by..." and then.. "Directed by 40 specially trained ecuadorian mountain llamas, 6 venezuelan red llamas, 142 mexican whooping llamas, 14 north chilean guanacos (closely related to the llama) Reg llama of brixton, 76000 battery llamas from "llama-fresh" farms LTD near paraguay and Terry gilliam and terry jones" |
