Monty Python?
 
So does anyone else like this stuff? It's brilliant. Pity they stopped showing it a while ago, becuase I was too small at the time to get most of what they said... I'm including the movies, too. Some of those songs... hehe...

The part in "Partying is Such Sweet Soiree" when Bloo's pointing out where all the stuff is to Mac reminds me of the "Know what I mean" sketch. Sheer genius, I tell ya.

Minstrel:----------------------------Robin:

Brave Sir Robin ran away.--------------No!
Bravely ran away away....-------------I didn't!
When Danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled------No!!
Yes brave Sir Robin turned about ------I didn't!
And gallantly chickened out..

Bravely taking to his feet
For a very brave retreat

Bravely bravely bravely bravely-------I never did!
Bravely bravely bravely bravely-------All lies!
Bravely bravely brave Sir Robin!------I never!

Launcelot: We were in the nick of time; you were in great peril!
Galahad: I *don't* think I was.
Launcelot: Yes you were, you were in *terrible* peril.
Galahad: Look. Let me go back in there and *face* the peril.
Launcelot: No, it's too perilous.
Galahad: But my duty as a knight is to stop as much peril as I can.
Launcelot: No, we've got to find the Holy Grail. Come on.
Galahad: Oh, let me have just a *little bit* of Peril?
Launcelot: No; it's unhealthy.

Let's just say I'm a fan. :) My brother has all of the DVDs, fortunately.

Well you can't have Eggs, bacon, and Spam without the Spam, now can you?

Kzinistzerg 08-18-2006 03:26 PM

Nice to hear it.

Of course, if I do say so myself, spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam is better.

Takes a deep breath......

We're............ Knights of the Round Table,
We dance when ere we're able,
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot,
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.
We're Knights of the Round Table,
Our show are formidable,
But many times, we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable.
We're Opera mad in Camelot,
We sing from the diaphragm
a looooooot.
In war we're tough and able,
Quite indefatigable,
Between our quests we sequin vests,
And impersonate Clark Gable.
It's a busy life in Camelot,
I have to push the pram a lot.

(And if that wasn't enough...)

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.

Yeah... I like the undertaker sketch but I don't think it's appropriate... hehe..

They're funny fellows, especially in the Flying Circus sketches.

My father is an even bigger Monty Python fan, he taped most of the their shows off the local PBS station back in the 1980's.

I SOOO wish we had the Monty Python collection at home! My mom's old boyfriend had a boxset of Monty Python's Flying Circus.

We DO have Monty Python and the Holy Grail though:bloogrin . Heh, I even hollowed out a coconut shell so I could have my own 'horse'.

Kzinistzerg 08-21-2006 12:52 PM

Brilliant! Have you seen the lego version of the camelot song?

Chaos Wielder 08-21-2006 01:36 PM

I'm so unfortunate...I've never gotten the chance to see the great masterpiece that is Monty Python (well, except for a few clips here and there). I'd definitely love to have a collection of it, though. ;)
