Oh, this is awesome 😂 10/10 😁

Robert Smith

And now for something completely different

Andi Herr

I think the reason why this is considered to be a step down in quality is that they went back to the sketch format (similar to their TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus) after writing a proper feature film with Life Of Brian. But I still think this movie has some of the best and most iconic Python material in it.

Andi Herr

Also, your faces during the middle of the film were the best!

ChristianK

Well seems like George is getting one of those godly lights shined above him he’s the chosen one😅

I'd heard the song "Every Sperm is Sacred" before I saw the rest of the film (Or even knew that there was a film) so for a long time that was the only thing running through my head. So many great musical numbers.

Jobbe Smit

I get the criticism of the movie, it's really just their regular sketches with a bigger budget but those are so much fun I can't echo the complaints myself.

Hansy

Man this is annoying. I cant seem to get the link / open it in a new window.

latsöm

Whenever I see this I immedietly want to watch The Crimson Pirate, a movie I definitely think you should watch.

Jpsynergy

If you are opening the video (not the cinebingers) right click and copy URL. Cinebingers if the above link isn't working or opening you should be able to navigate to cinebingers.ca and search for what you want there. Sorry if you tried all this, hope it helps!

As someone who grew up in a fiercely religious family, I feel the "O Lord, Oooh you are so big" bit is one of the most underrated Python bits ever.

Ben H

"And now for something completely different" is really good too, some say better than Meaning of Life - great skits from the first too seasons of the show!

Lionbarber

I also love that Chapman, the openly gay Python, is elected to play the guy chased off a cliff by topless young women.

Lionbarber

I echo the other comments that you should absolutely watch Flying Circus, the Monty Python sketch comedy show that predates all the films and made the troop famous. Or at least watch And Now For Something Completely Different, which is a film composed of sketches without even this vague attempt at a united theme.

Da Big Appa

A good movie to add that is not directly apart of Monty Python but has some of the crew involved including the director is 1988 movie The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. I hope that makes it on the list at some point.

Jonathan Eaton

I counted 64 kids coming out of the house.

Cory Garron

I'm beng cremated, no funeral. My stepfather is donated his body to a university in Halifax.

Namaste Hypnosis

This was a really fun reaction, although it looked like "find the fishy" almost broke Simone and George.

Herby Ragan

Highly recommend you watch the TV Series "Monty Python's Flying Circus" IMO the funniest sketch comedy show ever produced.

Bob Steger

In addition to Baron Munchausen, if you're looking for other Python-adjacent movies of note, Yellowbeard is a must see. It includes Cheech and Chong and is also the last film with Marty Feldman.

Lex Kuzma

Simone's reaction to the execution method might be my favorite reaction ever.

Torgosaves

When I'm dead, just throw me in the trash.

Kelly Pickard

For future consideration… Movies: - Waking Ned Devine (1998) - The Devil Wears Prada (2006) - Hook (1991) - The Birdcage (1996) - Margin Call (2011) - Legend (1985) - The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert (1994) - The King's Speech (2010) - Flash Gordon (1980) - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) - City Slickers (1991) TV: - Batman: The Animated Series - Disney's Gargoyles - Barry (Max) - The Boys

16:41-16:50 Undoubtedly a satirical reference to "The Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton." 19:34 "They're so chill!" Or in oldspeak: "stiff upper lip." 33:11 A salmon mousse once killed my entire dinner party. Nø, realli! I certainly have no objection to a reaction to the classic sketch show Monty Python's Flying Circus (though it can be hit and miss), but I'd much prefer John Cleese's classic sitcom Fawlty Towers (a mere 12 episodes).

Cinebinge

hi Hansy, i assume you are referring to the uncovered version link? are you on a desktop or mobile device? if on mobile, you can hold down on the link until a window appears and press "open in browser", or you can just go straight to your browser app and type in Cinebingers.ca in the address and find the video there. if you are on desktop, right click on the link and press open in new tab. or go to a new browser tap and type in Cinebingers.ca and find the video from there.

Matthew Ford

The third best Python film is still funnier than 99.9% of all other movies.

Bill P

The one other Monty Python (official) movie was their first, ....And Now For Something Completely Different". It is a reproduction of their classic skits from their TV show, all strung together. A bit like the format for Meaning of Life. This first movie is a great way to better understand the origins of their style of humor. Many classic skits and cultural iconic memes contained within. Absolutely hilarious. Perhaps you can watch this one? You will not regret it.

Liz Matter

If you like John Cleese you should watch Fierce Creatures.

James Lawson

Big + for this, considering they did Fish called Wanda this would really be a natural one! + Jamie Lee Curtis

Happy Hanukkah

Imagine watching this with the wrong kind of chemical enhancers... :-)

Namaste Hypnosis

That ain't my bag, baby. I wouldn't know where to start!

Nico Colaleo

PLEASE PLEASE close out your Monty Python journey by watching their very first movie! "And Now For Something Completely Different". You'll get to check out most of the TV show's best sketches but re-filmed with a big budget and movie quality cinematography.

Crystal

right!? I feel like Simone was already about to say she was having a bad flashback, lol

Happy Hanukkah

26:22 This is a spoof of Noel Coward. Inspired by the Zulu War scene, here is Noel Coward in a cabaret-style performance of his classic patter song Mad Dogs and Englishmen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkEd3WgR8qw [For the irony-impaired: the song is ironic.]

Lionbarber

GREAT list. I especially second Ned Devine, Hook, the Birdcage, and the King's Speech. Batman and Gargoyles are amazing too- and especially since they are watching Star Trek TNG and nearly every TNG cast member did at least a voice cameo and several are main characters

Kelly Pickard

Yeah, I'm dying for them to watch those four movies as well. :) They're all classics, and each so different, colorful, and interesting. I really hope they get a viewing one of these days.

Jay Johnson

my post-life wishes: I want something green/environmentally friendly I don't see the point in being pumped full of toxic chemicals (embalming). Let my body decompose naturally and return to the cycle of life.

Sam

I mean the puking scene has quite a few layers, so I dont agree with it has "nothing but the puking" , I do agree tho, that it was way to much but I also just hate stuff like that in general. :D
