Title: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 17, 2008, 09:36:21 am You knew it was coming folks...a thread dedicated to the all time comedy greats Monty Python!
To get this started lets begin with an obvious one. What's your favourite sketch? So many to choose from....Dead Parrot, Lumberjack Song, Fish-slapping Dance, Nudge-Nudge and of course The Upper Class Twit of the Year. Mine has to be Cheese-shop....no wait it's definately The Killer Joke....or is it Spam? Never mind there's just too many! :D Comments please! ( I know! It's Life and Death Struggles!) Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 17, 2008, 09:46:28 am Here's one of my favourite sketches.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsvWVbBowXo I was watching whole episodes on Youtube but I stopped after episode 11. I don't know why Here's another of my favourites http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfzm9dfqBw Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 18, 2008, 05:27:44 am And the winner is - HYPNOTOAD -
Fish slapping dance! Fish slapping dance! FISH SLAPPING DANCE!!! Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 18, 2008, 05:31:21 am It's quite short that sketch though.
The Parrot Sketch is great. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 18, 2008, 06:17:13 am Life and Death Struggles is just too funny...
"And here we see a pantomime princess Margaret engaged in a life and death struggle with a breakfast. Oh she has got out her harpoon and shot it as it ran by. Right in the toast!" <said in ridiculous French accent> Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 18, 2008, 06:30:14 am Spongebob: "The next item on the list: show my best friend squidward to everyone in town - in a salmon suit!"
Squidward: "You're going to be wearing a salmon suit?" Spongebob: "Haaaaaaaaaaa! Don't be silly!" Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 18, 2008, 06:38:43 am Spongebob: "The next item on the list: show my best friend squidward to everyone in town - in a salmon suit!" Squidward: "You're going to be wearing a salmon suit?" Spongebob: "Haaaaaaaaaaa! Don't be silly!" I don't remember that Monty Python sketch..... Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 18, 2008, 06:40:55 am Ducking hell! Wrong thread!
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 18, 2008, 06:42:27 am Ducking hell! Wrong thread! lol...how did you do that? For shame Hypnotoad Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 18, 2008, 06:46:24 am Don't ask me how, I don't know!
Re Monty Python this time, I know a guy that's A LOT like the guy in the "nudge nudge, wink wink" sketch! Whenever any one says anything, he shouts "waay!" and leaves us to figure out what the innuendo was in what we'd just said Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 18, 2008, 11:28:34 am Don't ask me how, I don't know! Re Monty Python this time, I know a guy that's A LOT like the guy in the "nudge nudge, wink wink" sketch! Whenever any one says anything, he shouts "waay!" and leaves us to figure out what the innuendo was in what we'd just said Pfft yeah. I'll never look at apple pie, doilies, George Bush or Sweden the same way.... Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 19, 2008, 09:44:10 am Cross Channel Jump was funny.
As is the Man turning into a Scotsman. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 19, 2008, 12:10:24 pm the milkman sketch... sn-sn-sn!
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 20, 2008, 08:53:53 am I think it's time for a sketch.
The Spam Song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anwy2MPT5RE Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 20, 2008, 11:54:08 am http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe1a1wHxTyo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByZqx30OvVs&feature=related Speak's for themselves.... Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 21, 2008, 10:04:17 am I've seen the second one before, very silly idea.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 21, 2008, 10:13:09 am Hillariously silly.
Calling Monty Python "silly" is like calling fish "wet". Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 21, 2008, 10:26:25 am True. MP is pure genius.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 21, 2008, 10:29:00 am Hillariously silly. Calling Monty Python "silly" is like calling fish "wet". Always we return to wet fish Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 21, 2008, 10:31:08 am And now the fish-slapping dance.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 21, 2008, 10:36:43 am Well since everyones going on about it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhJQp-q1Y1s Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 21, 2008, 10:40:47 am No-one ever shows the second-half of that sketch..... :(
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 21, 2008, 10:44:02 am I know, its a shame.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: OL1V3R on June 26, 2008, 04:01:50 pm Monty Python is brilliant! I saw some of it at my cousin's house.
Funny sketches include the killer joke, the accident sketch, and of course, the Ministry of Silly Walks. Some funny quotes: (part of a spoof BBC TV announcement) "It's now 5 past 6, and it won't be long until 6 past 6." "Tomorrow morning it will be 9:20, and we'll be with you just in time for 10:33." "Those of you who missed Friday's programme at 9:45 can catch it again this Friday at quarter to ten." Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 27, 2008, 12:04:51 pm Everyone talks about MSW, but I haven't seen that one
Someone please post it!!! Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 27, 2008, 01:32:45 pm OK then
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYlzTdSZeI4 and I'll throw in the Lumberjack song as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xToPCaNxaow Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: OL1V3R on June 28, 2008, 06:20:12 am TheAPERSON, the Ministry of Silly Walks video doesn't seem to be working. You'll need to swap it for another video of the same sketch.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 28, 2008, 07:27:42 am I've done that now.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 28, 2008, 10:16:49 am http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJSey8HRUhU
Here's a nice one found randomly searching.... Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 28, 2008, 02:13:07 pm Please remove the luggage from the racks above your heads and place them on the other side of the aircraft.
That's a great sketch. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 29, 2008, 03:05:07 am It goes on too long though... it wears thin before it's even over
Annoying how a lot of Monty Python scetches do that Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 29, 2008, 07:48:36 am Nah, I like that one.
The I spy idea in the sky was silly. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 29, 2008, 08:00:18 am It goes on too long though... it wears thin before it's even over Annoying how a lot of Monty Python scetches do that 4 minutes? Long? Hahhahah.....Obviously you've never seen the Tale of Happy Valley. Nearly 15 minutes of pure Python. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 29, 2008, 08:03:35 am The longest sketch I've seen is Man turns into Scotsman.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on June 29, 2008, 08:06:39 am How long?
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 29, 2008, 08:13:52 am It lasted for the majority of the 30 minute episode.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on June 29, 2008, 03:07:31 pm The film industry one - that went on for ages
Though admittedly it switches from the film review scetch to the filmmaking one Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on June 30, 2008, 12:12:18 pm Well, sketches are definately shorter these days.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: OL1V3R on July 02, 2008, 02:11:44 pm Not only the sketches in the shows are funny, but also those cartoons.
Here's an example - Conrad Poohs and his Dancing Teeth: http://www.youtube.com/v/vOE_IwYUIzU&hl=en&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca&border=1 Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on July 04, 2008, 04:01:51 pm That's Terry Giliam's work. I don't really enjoy it as much as the rest of the Python sketches.
Giliam's a very, very weird person. Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on July 05, 2008, 04:02:03 am It's still very silly though. I like the way the end links into the next sketch.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Leonri on July 05, 2008, 11:45:51 am ^ You haven't seen as much as I have. :-X
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on July 06, 2008, 07:35:14 am Good point. I was watching entire episodes up until episode 11 when I stopped. So in that case you would have definately seen more.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on July 08, 2008, 12:28:01 pm The animated bits just aren't funny
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on July 09, 2008, 03:15:25 am They're funny in a wierd way, but that's about it.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: OL1V3R on July 09, 2008, 12:43:22 pm They're funny in a wierd way, but that's about it. They might not be so funny, but they are memorable. My favourite animation bit involved the giant foot! Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on July 09, 2008, 02:01:29 pm That appears in the title sequence so that's obviously going to be funny.
Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: Hypnotoad on July 09, 2008, 02:38:21 pm It's great
The title's so mad, so crammed with insanity, then the foot just comes down and ends it all Like an unstoppable final word And it's kinda random too ;D Title: Re: Monty Python Post by: TheAPERSON on July 10, 2008, 04:17:19 am It really sums up the show. |
