Who else here loves monty python? I Love Life of Brian, Holy Grail and got the whol box set of flying circus last christmas, god its funny. It's an aquired Humour, some people get it and other people think 'Thats a bit silly'. Your right, it IS a bit silly. Reinforced the the 'Ministry of Silly Walks' skit. BUT - The sillyness is a cover for what I would call very intelligent humour, with very subtle humour in some cases. What are everyones favourite scenes/skits? And favourite member? Mines Eric Idle, he is very good at words. One of mine: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQFKtI6gn9Y]YouTube - Argument Clinic[/ame]
I <3 John Cleese. The Flying Circus is the best, I have all of it... and my favourite sketch is Confuse-A-Cat.
I love Monty Python, however, I did some work for Eric Idle a few years ago and the guy is a real miserable fucker in real life. Maybe he was having a bad week, I dunno...
Yeah... my mother met him at a party way back when in Paris.. apparently Van Morrison was with him too (so jealous). She said he was drunk and fucked out of his skull, and was really rude and inappropriate with her... Oh well.
I like Monty more and more since moving to England and becoming accustomed to their brand of humor. They are a must have for any stoner's DVD collection.
Bloody English quirky people huh Where u from in France? SOrry to hijack the thread dude. (i grew up in France).
