I'm so glad I finally sat down to watch this one! But I don't think I was fully prepared for this level of absurd brilliance 😅🤣 The moment those opening credits started dropping random Swedish subtitles about a moose (???), I knew logic had officially left the building and I would have to fully surrender to the realm of chaos.You all know me and my Bible lol. So the "Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch" scene just about took me out. I've definitely read Numbers, but never quite like that. Three shalt count, no more, no less. Two is right out. It's the theology lesson I didn't know I needed 😅I think what cracked me up the most was how the movie constantly undercut its own epicness, like a real medieval manuscript somehow got snatched up and doodled on by a stand-up comedian and just sent to filming that way LOL. By the end I was laughing, quoting, and even caught myself saying "it's just a flesh wound!" when people were only nearly deadThank you all so much for the recommends of this movie. I'm off to go order a nice shrubbery off Amazon and revel in the glorious irony of it 🤣😅 Share your favorite quotes below! Thank you for your support on Patreon!Relax and enjoy 🍿🌿LINK: https://youtu.be/3-YqfbdRiNwI watched this on Amazon Prime (Ni!)

The thumbnail says it all! I can't wait to see the reaction.

This will be a joy! I was first introduced to this gem in 10th Grade by a particularly awesome English teacher who was bored with just teaching the curriculum one Friday, and I'm forever thankful

kaliwali

I went for the 'cheeks hurt from laughing so hard' look 🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy!

kaliwali

That's awesome that a teacher let you watch this! I feel like this is a movie that gets even funnier when you're watching it with a few friends 🤣

Dave Hill

“There are some who call me….Tim?” I mean Gandalf is always top of the list, but Tim’s got to be a close second, right? 🤣

Phil Stubblefield

LOL, Kali! Loved your description! 🤣 I can't wait to watch your reaction this evening! My favorite line? There are so many, but the first one that springs to mind is: 🏹 [whir...] [thunk] "Message for you, sir!"

kaliwali

Enjoy! 🤣 I had so much fun with this one today!

Malcolm Ferguson

I first saw this movie over 10 years ago, and I only recently got the joke with the ending - it's a LITERAL cop-out! XD

Malcolm Ferguson

Also, the rabbit scared the sh*t out of me when I was a kid, lol.

kaliwali

LOL wait stoooop! Yes! 🤣

kaliwali

I was honestly NOT expecting it to go that way lol

Chris

Nothing in history will ever be funnier than Dennis, the anarchy-syndicalist mud farmer.

KJ

That's no ordinary rabbit

KJ

Alright, we'll call it a draw.

"Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just cause some watery tart threw a sword at you."

Steve Mercier

For me, it's always up between this and Airplaine for all-time funniest movie. "Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony." "You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!" "Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away. "

Glen Roberts

Dunno if you know this but Monty Python was a British comedy troupe who used to have their own TV show. i remember watching it as a kid. Did you realize there are only about 6 guys who played all the different roles ? John Cleese, who was Sir Lancelot has acted in many movies and had a short lived TV series called Fawlty Towers. This series only had 12 shows during its run but Is one of the funniest TV shows I've ever seen. I would also highly recommend their 2nd movie called "The Life of Brian" which also pokes a lot of fun at religion, but I advise passing on their 3rd movie. It's not your cup of tea. :)

Lastboyscout73

I still use the quote "And there was much rejoicing" here and there when people win on my craps table when I'm on stick and I wave it in the air as I say it, LOL. They didn't know how to end the movie so they used a literal "Cop Out" to get out of ending it. Of course, "It's just a flesh wound" and "Your arms off!" "No it isn't" "Look" "I've had worse" and so many more my friends and I used to say all the time when we were in our late teens to early 20s. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. It's a different kind of humor for sure but sometimes I just love British humor for what it is.

Richard

Yes yes yes I get to enjoy Kali laughing, having fun, and not having to write a college thesis after. No idea when I’ll get to this but I know the watch along will make me very happy. I remember NOTHING about it, so it will be like a first. Loooove that smile in the screen capture!! Made my night.

M1 Maz

What did I just watch LOL. And I say that with endless endearment hahaha I knew I was in for silly, but this knocked me out. Just right off the rip with the 'horses' I knew what I was in for. But then the "just a flesh wound" fight against the knight set the tone for the rest of the movie. I'm actually really glad I watched this one for the first time with your reaction! I would have liked it on my own, but it definitely took the laughs to a different level watching it along with you haha That clip at the end LOL. Literally what this movie was. Oh and now I after watching this movie, I get your title too hahaha

Dude Longcouch

For recommendations for other comedies, I'd actually like to recommend a comedy TV show - Arrested Development. One of the greatest sitcoms ever created and sure to make you laugh every episode, a few episodes each week would be the perfect comedy supplement to your ongoing schedule.

Andy Jordan

This was one of my favorite reactions of yours. Monty Python is very dear to my silly heart. They started with a TV show, then transitioned into film, and if you do any others of theirs (Life of Brian is my favorite, and my favorite comedy of all-time), keep a watch for the six of them playing multiple characters. Graham Chapman, for instance, played King Arthur, but he was also the middle head in the three-headed knight scene, the hiccuping guard at Swamp Castle and the voice of God. A few notes: the title at the beginning did actually read 932 A.D. (that's the script that was used at the time), not 93-squared, although I'm sure the Pythons would love that's how you read it, and I do, too. The Python you recognized from somewhere was Eric Idle, although I'm not sure where you would know him from, maybe Casper or Suddenly Susan (he was also Merlin in Shrek 3, but that was a voice role). He also wrote and produced a musical version of Holy Grail called Spamalot, which won a Tony for Best Musical in '05 that's very popular, although he didn't himself perform in it. Also, another actor who played multiple roles was John Young, who was not only "A Famous Historian", but also the not-dead old man in the "Bring Out Your Dead" scene. Yes, many famous lines come from this film, and "It's just a flesh wound" is one of them. One funny story about that: Elvis Presley's favorite movie was Holy Grail, according to Jerry Shilling, a close friend of Elvis, and he loved quoting the movie, including one time when he cut himself badly somehow, and the first thing Elvis said after his friends rushed to help him was "It's just a flesh wound." And the intermission joke needs a little explanation too for contemporary audiences. It used to be, even up 'til the mid-'70s, that an intermission at the cinema was not uncommon, usually for longer films, where an intermission would be put in roughly halfway through, like at a stage play, so audiences could not only get up and take a break, but also so the projectionist could change the reel. Film intermissions typically lasted about 10 to 15 minutes, and some home releases of classic films leave the full intermissions intact, such as My Fair Lady, Ben-Hur, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. So the intermission was meant as a practical joke on cinema audiences at the time, the idea being that, when the first intermission came up, the audience would get up and start leaving, but that intermission is only about ten seconds long, and then the film resumes, meaning the audience would all of a sudden have to unexpectedly rush back to their seats. That intermission primes the audience for the second intermission at the end, making them think they need to stay in their seats now, but this time, it goes for 3 minutes with a blank screen and then just ends, the biggest anti-climax possible. One other fun fact: when John Cleese was playing Tim the Enchanter, his character actually had another name in the script, but on the day of shooting, he forgot his name, so he paused trying to think of the name, couldn't get it, and then just ad-libbed "Tim." Everyone liked it so much, they just left it in, and he became Tim. And good job picking up on the real horse absolving Arthur and his knights, since they don't have horses! A lot of people miss that, including myself the first several times. I highly recommend Monty Python's Life of Brian, which is their best, in my opinion. Also, Terry Gilliam (Patsy, the old man from Scene 24, the animator with the heart-attack, etc.), also their animator, is a great director, and I'd recommend Time Bandits (a fantasy for kids and grown-ups), Brazil (an interpretation of Orwell's 1984), The Fisher King (a darkly sweet film with Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges) and 12 Monkeys (a fantastic time-travel film with Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt) as films of his that would make for good reactions. Whew! Sorry, that was a lot, but I'm a Python nut. Great job with this one. I had a blast! (And there was much rejoicing.)

Phil Stubblefield

I think I have to agree, Steve! When someone mentions "comedy", this film and Airplane! are the first ones that come to mind.

Phil Stubblefield

Fantastic comment, Andy! I've seen this movie over a dozen times, and I still learned some things from you! 👍🏻

Phil Stubblefield

Wow, Kali, that was such a blast! I never knew that watching someone's cheeks cramp up could be so amusing... 😂 Other commenters have already elaborated on many interesting details, so I'll just point out one thing you missed. When King Arthur entered the village in search of a shrubbery, you noticed a cat being beaten against a wall. I'm sorry to say, but you had already missed several instances of cats being badly used! Next time you watch it, keep an eye on the background, especially at the beginning of each new skit... uh, I mean, scene. 😉 OTOH, despite having seen this over a dozen times, I had never noticed one detail that you caught. When the Trojan Rabbit fails and the knights are defeated by the French, they split up and search separately. After The Tale of Sir Robin, we catch up with Sir Galahad forcing his way through thick brambles. Kali, you said: "He must be one of the ones where the peasant got smashed because he doesn't have a horse anymore." I never thought of that! 😲 Well done! Finally, do you know why the knights use coconuts instead of horses? Because the film was shot on a budget, and horses are expensive! No movie studio would fund the film, so the Pythons famously turned to rock musicians and other wealthy Brits, with Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd together contributing just under a third of the budget! "Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time!"

McShades

I tried to watch this, but I fear this is one of those movies you either love it or hate it. It's just not for me, maybe if I was high lol... But I'm glad others had fun watching it...

Richard

For comedy recommends, Naked Gun would get a lot votes as well as the 2 sequels. Or you if want to try another Jim Carrey one, The Mask has . . . . . . . . . Cameron Diaz!

kaliwali

Ahh I had no idea! Awesome to know! I did notice that a few of them played multiple different roles 🤣🤣

kaliwali

LOL yeah, definitely a different kind of humor but really enjoyable to just sit back and watch chaos happen sometimes 🤣🤣

kaliwali

Ahh I hope you enjoy when you get to it! It's been a fun week of laughs for sure!

kaliwali

After I finished recording this I just knew that watching it alongside someone and getting to laugh WITH them was the whole point! It was still soooo much fun to sit down and react to this one tho! Probably because I consider you all inside my camera lens with me 🤣😅 But I see what you mean about it being even funnier watching someone else laugh at the absurdity of it all! I'm glad you got some laughs in too haha And the 'glitter crime scene' clip LOL I love that it so much. It lives rent free in my head and comes in during the randomest times 🤣

kaliwali

Ooo I feel like I used to hear people at the hospital talk about how funny that one is! I'll add it to my series list!

kaliwali

This was such an enjoyable comment to read and I feel like I look at this film so differently now with a few of those facts!! I am also adding your recommendations to my list because I'd love to watch another Monty Python film :) Thank you so much for sharing so much about this film! I love the 'Python nut' title hahaha own it proudly!

kaliwali

Those poor cats in these scenes!! 🤣😅 I noticed the cats being thrown off the French castle's wall LOL. But as for the other torture moments, I definitely missed them. But that adds to the rewatch now so I can lookout for it haha! I've been really enjoying the comments in this one! Makes me want to rewatch tonight already seeing all the things I missed or never thought about 😅 Thank you for laughing with me!!

kaliwali

No worries at all! Not everyone's cup of tea 🤣

kaliwali

Oo Thank you for the recommends!

Chris

If you want another Python film, Life of Brian is consensus the next one to watch. More people probably prefer Holy Grail, but there's definitely a sizable minority who prefer Life of Brian. Whichever order, they're for sure in a tier together.

Matt Migs

ok, after watching this Kali, what is the line from this film you will quote the most?

Matt Migs

oh and i recommend next : "the princess bride" if you havent watched it already

Andy Jordan

I agree, Holy Grail is probably the more popular Python film, but if I had to pick, I think Life of Brian is the better one: more focused story, Graham Chapman at his best as a leading man, bolder and riskier as far as subject matter. But it's also just super funny underneath all the rest of it. For Holy Grail, apropos of nothing, for some reason, probably my favorite joke is the quick cut in the "Knights of the Round Table" song to the prisoner in manacles, casually clapping along to the song. It comes and goes so quickly, but it just tickles me in a weird way. Another thing I noticed some time ago that I always have to suspend disbelief for: in the first French Taunter scene, when Cleese's taunter tells Arthur that they already have a Holy Grail, he shouldn't really need to tell his guard-friends standing right next to him "I told them we already got one", since they're a couple feet away from him, so they easily would've heard him. Their reaction works for the joke, but I always have to pretend that they didn't hear him shout that, for whatever reason.

kaliwali

LOL probably 'It's just a flesh wound' whenever my little one gets injured now 🤣😅 And I unfortunately have seen The Princess Bride already! It was one of my cousin's favorite films growing up and we used to watch it and quote it all the time 🩷 Love that movie!

Chris Truex

I'm sure others will have recommended it, but Monty Python's The Life of Brian is another of their movies that is 100% about the Bible. I think you would really like it as well, given your comments about Biblical stuff.

pinkdino99

Every time I think of Elvis quoting Monty Python, my heart swells.

The Monty Python team are/were incredibly well educated Cambridge and Oxford university grads. They formed as a comedy troupe at the height of British Conservatism. And our TV at the time reflected that (all three channels of it !) which was the pool the Pythons happily spent their days mocking. The BBC was an institution of British Conservative broadcasting. It was all very proper. There was some absurdist comedy... The Goon Show with the legend that is Spike Milligan (who gets a few lines in Life of Brian), and Dud & Pete (Dudley Moore and Peter Cook). But nobody was ready for the Pythons. Their first series wandered across different time slots. The beeb had no idea where to place them as there were both extremely violent moments (yet silly), and watching as a kid we always knew there was a chance we'd see some boobs ! This led to the TV audience being largely university kids and trendy young hipsters, although the live audience was largely middle aged (whom had NO IDEA what they were watching). Sketches like The Dead Parrot sketch, The Lumberjack song, The Upper Class Twit of the Year, How to spot different types of tree, The dirty fork... all became instant classics. My friend and I as kids had the first six episodes on VHS which we watched every week until we could quote every line verbatim. FIONA LEWIS: (taking bible) I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so anyway, I said to her, I said, they can't afford that on what he earns, I mean for a start the feathers get up your nose, I ask you, four and six a pound, and him with a wooden leg, I don't know how she puts up with it after all the trouble she's had with her you-know-what, anyway it was a white wedding much to everyone's surprise, of course they bought everything on the hire purchase, I think they ought to send them back where they came from, I mean you've got to be cruel to be kind so Mrs. Harris said, so she said, she said, she said, the dead crab she said, she said. Well, her sister's gone to Rhodesia what with her womb and all, and her youngest, her youngest as thin as a filing cabinet, and the goldfish, the goldfish they've got whooping cough they keep spitting water all over their Bratbys, well, they do don't they, I mean you can't, can you, I mean they're not even married or anything, they're not even divorced, and he's in the KGB if you ask me, he says he's a tree surgeon but I don't like the sound of his liver, all that squeaking and banging every night till the small hours, his mother's been much better since she had her head off, yes she has, I said, don't you talk to me about bladders, I said... DON'T YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT BLADDERS !!!... I mean I've seen that sketch (Courtroom sketch) a hundred times and that still made me laugh reading it. And that is the power of the Python's comedy. It is both insanely stupid, yet brilliantly clever all at once. "I'm thinking of going for a walk !" "You're not fooling anyone you know..."

pinkdino99

If you ever fancy watching a more canon version of the Aurthurian legend, then Excalibur (1981) is a great choice. An epic and dark sword and sorcery epic.

Greg In East TN

Hey there. I'm the new guy. I looked through your collection and noticed a definite shortage of Mel Brooks. Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, History of the World Part 1, and Robin Hood: Men in Tights are my favorites. If you like dark comedies, consider "Dr. Strangelove" starring Peter Sellers (playing three characters), Slim Pickens (also in Blazing Saddles) and a young James Earl Jones. Also "Being There" starring Peter Sellers. Those are some great comedies.

kaliwali

Hey new guy! Thanks so much for checking this out and your support here! I definitely need to jump into more Mel Brooks, so I really appreciate the recommendations and lil breakdown on which one I might enjoy the most next! I need to watch another very soon!

AKICITA

I couldn't click PLAY fast enough, LOL!

Willm

Found you on youtube from obsession recently and over the past week watched the whole LotR series. Cried along so much I literally thought 'I hope she's done monty python and the holy grail for a bit of light relief after this.' Lo and behold haha Edit: i said 1 week, turns out you only uploaded obsession 3 days ago so i guess i got my timeframe a bit wrong lol
