The alien scene was a tongue in cheek jab at religion and the idea man (or woman) are God's focus of creation in an infinitely vast universe.

[@jakubfabisiak9810]

Also fun fact: the film was unoficially banned in the Welsh town of Aberystwyth, because of the scene with naked Judith, played by Sue Jones-Davies. In 2007, the new mayor of Aberystwyth lifted the ban. Her name was Sue Jones-Davies.

[@clarencewalker3925]

Irony. Gotta love it!

[@adamscott7354]

Don't forget also - After Norway banned "Monty Python's Life of Brian" for blasphemy, it was marketed in Sweden as “so funny it was banned in Norway" I mean what more of a strong selling point do you need for the Swedes than that?

Fun fact: John Cleese used to teach Latin, so the scene in which he catches Brian writing "romanes eunt domus" is a lot more personal for him. Also, Latin was important in the Roman Empire - it was a requirement to become a citizen that one had to learn Latin.

[@peterzerfass4609]

It's also a joke that would have hit close to home to most (british/european) moviegoers at the time because latin was still part of the regular curriculum.

This is the only reaction I've seen to notice what Spike Milligan does with his hands, the awkward clasping and unclasping when he realises he's all alone. To me it's the funniest scene in the film, and he wasn't even supposed to be there. 😂😂

[@YogiBhoy78]

My favourite scene too. I was about to mention Spike, absolute legend.

[@davidmonaghan26]

Me too did you guys also notice the Beatle George Harrison?

[@lordcharfield4529]

I must have missed it as I fast forwarded through the interruptions!

[@YogiBhoy78]

What interruptions?

[@myke49]

I spent the 1950s listening to Spike Milligan and the Goons on ABC Radio in Australia. I had a crystal set (a primitive radio) and listened to every Goon Show I could find. Spike wrote a large fraction of the Goon Shows which ran for about 9 years. I had no idea what I was listening to but it made me laugh. In later years I listened to as many of the Goon Shows as I could hear but by this time cassettes had made an appearance and I built quite a collection. Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers and Harry Seacomb were my heroes. I was really pleased to see Spike in the hoard following Brian. The boys were working on Life of Brian in Northern Africa when they bumped into him and they offered him a place in their movie. They did not offer any money though he insisted they were going to pay him. A wonderful man. He often came to Australia to visit his mother who lived in Woy Woy north of Sydney. Mike in Oz

[@goodshipkaraboudjan]

The survivors of a sinking Royal Navy Destroyer famously sang it sitting on the upturned hull of their ship during the Falklands. Half were burned or wounded but sat there singing. Great song.

[@RobertHoward-d8g]

The guy who walked away and didn't follow was a fellow named Spike Milligan, one of the funniest men to have lived. He just happened to be on holiday where they were filming and was talked into performing a cameo role. He's passed since then and his epitaph on his grave (which is not too far from where I live) states 'See, I told you I was I'll'.

[@RuntotheMovies]

Thanks for this tidbit!

[@arwelp]

Actually the church authorities thought “I told you I was ill” was inappropriate, so Spike had it carved in Irish instead (he held an Irish passport despite having fought in the British Army in WW2, but when he applied for a British passport in the 1950s he was told he was ineligible because he’d been born in India in an army family, and so had his father; he got Irish citizenship through his grandparents).

True story - in 1982 during the Falklands war, the HMS Sheffield was hit by a missile and the crew had to abandon ship. Floating in the water, they all sang the "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" song.

[@toy4871]

It is a good song. 😊❤. But wow that's pretty interesting. The way it had an impact on people. I saw an earlier comment that said they have it on their playlist and have added to one of my own also. So far I've played it twice and I can't help but smile when I hear it. Not just because of the song, but also because I heard it hear with everyone here and it makes me happy 😊❤. But man, to be hit with a missile, abandon the ship, and sing that floating is incredible. Thank you for sharing that 😊😊😊❤.

[@theylied1776]

Even though he asked not to be credited, George Harrison from the Beatles funded and produced this movie.

[@mrmockatoo6786]

And he appeared briefly in one scene.

[@SwordmasterKane]

My recommendation, if you haven't watched it already, would be "A Fish Called Wanda". Apart from Monty Python members John Cleese (who also wrote it) and Michael Palin you have Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Kline in leading roles (Kline even got an Oscar for his performance). Also, it's a very dark humorous heist comedy.

[@stjohntownsend3019]

The old guy clenching his hands was Spike Milligan, an out and out comic genius, he was in a radio comic sketch show in the 50/60s called The Goons! Without which Monty Python would not have existed. Some of their sketches can be found on KZbin.

[@Zeno_Evil]

The "I'm Brian" bit at the end is a bit directly from the 1960 movie Spartacus with Kirk Douglas.

[@exile220ify]

Fun fact: there's a callback to the Latin scene in the film "Canadian Bacon", in which Americans are caught in Canada riding a truck with anti-Canada slogans on the side. They're pulled over by the police (Dan Aykroyd) and not allowed to continue until they ALSO paint those same slogans in French, as Canada is officially bilingual :)

[@SootyTX]

Getting the distinct impression Toy can see the dirty jokes coming but poor Tori is far too innocent! I grew up on Monty Python and seeing it discovered again is amazing. 😊😊😂

[@georgeowain]

FYI: in the scene where Brian’s group sneak in to the palace to kidnap the guy’s wife. In an alternate deleted scene, instead of fighting first with the rival group. They all agree to kidnap her, and decide later who has claim to her. But upon entering her room, they discover she’s eight feet tall (it’s a guy playing her) and stronger than the lot of them put together. She then escapes her room with them all chasing her, only for her to run back to her room and lock the door. Inevitably they blame one another, resulting in the fight.

[@TenmaStupidity]

During the Biggus Dickus scene they actually used a group of Extras and they told them whatever they did not to laugh and told them nothing about the scene they were doing. So them trying to hold back their laughter is real....

[@RuntotheMovies]

😹

[@WithTwoFlakes]

1:50 So... the joke about the "balm" bemuses a lot of folks. Popular in the UK in the 1970's as a heat rub for muscle strains etc was a product called Tiger Balm. The Wise Men brought along Myrrh, a balm / ointment, but that triggers Brian's Mum to think Tiger - a dangerous animal that might bite him. 17:25 The bit with the aliens. The first Star Wars movie was released less than 2 years previously and was hugely popular. So for audiences watching back then, aliens appearing in LoB was a big laugh and everyone got that it was a reference to Star Wars / aliens building the pyramids / scientology / etc.

[@richardbalducci4490]

Nude people was totally normal in movies when I was young. kind of fun to see people today totally surprised . =) This is a Epiq movie its soo totally stoopid but somehow still Amazing. I live in Denmark in the 10th grade of highschool we had a beach day around 50% of the girls were topless this was 1991 we saw it as normal and did not think mutch of it.. Anyway amazing to see people still enjoying Monty python they were a huge part of my growing up .

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

Well, if you think about it, the reason nudity is such a big deal in the US is because much of our social norms were shaped by Puritans, who view everything between neck and ankles as more-or-less sinful... And Puritans hadn't been invented yet, 2000 years ago.

[@markcarpenter6020]

​@@jean-paulaudette9246you can actually see the influence of Christianity in the bathhouses. Before Christianity it's one giant bath that everyone used. It's only after Christianity they start making bunches of small baths. (Same thing with their toilets, in the original ones people would sit next to each other so)

[@exile220ify]

There are four Python films: "And Now For Something Completely Different" - reenactments of sketches from their television show, including "The Dead Parrot", plus new material "Monty Python And The Holy Grail" - probably the consensus best/funniest of the films "Monty Python's Life Of Brian" - this film "Monty Python's The Meaning Of Life" - my personal favourite which includes a bizarre 16-minute intro called "The Crimson Permanent Assurance" which features accountants waging war, and also featuring the first screen appearance of Matt Frewer, later known as the star of "Max Headroom"

[@JW666]

There is a 3rd movie, Monty Python's Meaning of Life. You should definitely check out the TV-show Monty Python's Flying Circus, but If that one shouldn't happen then there is a 4th movie which is mostly a compilation of their most well known skits, some of them taken from the show and most of them are reshot I think, I know they combined two of their most well known skits, The Dead Parrot and The Lumberjack, for that one while in the show they showed up seperately. It's called "And Now For Something Completely Different". All of these are highly recommended! =)

[@dogawful]

I grew up watching and loving Flying Circus on PBS. The HBO comedy series Mr. Show, with Bod Odenkirk and David Cross, I think must have taken some inspiration from Monty Python, with most of the skits being linked together. An underrated gem.

Nobody on KZbin has ever reacted to one of John Cleese's very best performances: "Clockwise" (1986) John plays a very strict headmaster of a normal comprehensive school (11 - 18 years old) His exacting methods have led him to be declared "Headmaster of the Year" - a title normally reserved for headmasters of more priveleged private schools that educate the country's elite On the way to the awards ceremony, he accidentally gets on the wrong train .... What follows is a fast-paced nightmare of a road movie, as Mr Stimpson gets into all sorts of scrapes in an effort to make it to the Headmaster's Conference on time. John Cleese as "Mr Stimpson" is superb. I'm sure that role was purposefully designed for him; fits him like a glove. I've watched this film several times, and never been bored. I'm amazed nobody has reacted to such a great movie (I checked)! It's an open goal - you could be the first to react to "Clockwise"!

Each episode of the TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus is a half-hour series of different skits. There are two episodes where the story lasted the whole 30 minutes: Mr. Neutron, and the Cycling Tour of North Cornwall. There is another episode (You're No Fun Anymore) that is skits for the first 10 minutes, and the rest taken up by one story called Science Fiction Sketch. As for individual skits, my favourites are Argument Clinic, Cheese Shop, The Spanish Inquisition, and Spam.

[@scottbuckley823]

This movie works because it doesn't mock Christ it mocks those following him. He's in the opening scene and yet miscommunication is already seen yet Jesus is treated with respect. so more a view of religion rather than those they follow.

[@jazzx251]

You're right. The movie was banned for years and years in some places, because Christians wanted to be offended ... which solidifies/"enables" their ridiculous faith in the supernatural It was banned in Aberystwth in Wales - and they only overturned the ban when a new female mayor took office ... That new mayor was Sue Jones-Davies, who plays Brian's girlfriend and gets all of her clothes off in the movie! And ... apparently ... it was her nudity that was the cause of the ban, not religion! (hmmm ....evidence please ...) The people of Aberystwth chose this lady as mayor, so that they could move into the 20th century (*even though it was the 21st century when they elected her) - and finally get to see .. "The Life of Brian"

[@PohjanKarhu]

​@@jazzx251 And overall I would say, most Christians have been really good at being able to have humour. I wonder when people are gonna start pulling Islam and the muslims into the 21st century...

[@PohjanKarhu]

​​​ The very fact that you write "... enables their ridiculous faith in the supernatural." as if it's a mental illness only demonstrates your own religious zealotry. I grew up in a non-religious family. Non-religious atheism is natural to me. But these days it seems like reactionary militant religious atheism is on the rise. Wouldn't surprise me if y'all soon start banning Christianity, or any religion that doesn't allow itself to become just a religious disguise for secular political ideologies like (like the State Church here in Sweden), and start throwing people in jail for simply not worshipping transhumanism.

[@PohjanKarhu]

​​@@jazzx251As a non-religious atheist myself it's funny. Because you don't need an official religion, or a belief in the supernatural, to be religiously minded. Most atheists are themselves suceptible to the very same things religious people are, group think, religious thinking, getting easily offended, banning, zealous behavior etc. Ideologies and political movements are secular religions, all with their own priests, evangelicals and prophets and martyrs. People are willing to blindly follow any political group, become staunch believers and are willing to kill and ban anyone and anything that goes against their beliefs. And looking at the new atheist movement, which I as an atheist myself despise... well, easily offended anti-religious people that do nothing else but attack all religions and all religious people, and do it with religious conviction, zealotry and righteousness... without understanding the irony of it all.. 😂 It's hilarious watching atheists and Christians mirror each other to perfection, and both sides consider themselves better 😂 Ultimately, this movie is about all humans' natural inclination to groupthink and religious mindsets. Not just among "religious" people.

Definitely recommend seeing "Meaning of Life" as well as "And Now For Something Completely Different". But they also filmed a live show they had done during the 70s at the Hollywood Bowl in 1980 called "Monty Python Live At The Hollywood Bowl" . They perform some famous sketches from the TV show but also introduce newer ones (including a funny one involving Michelangelo and the Pope). Check that out, as well as this special that was on HBO back in 1995; it features a panel at that year's Aspen Comedy Festival with the then give surviving members of Monty Python plus Graham Chapman's ashes.

Firstly the guards were not extras they are respected comic actors, together they played 12 different roles in the movie. Scene 13 wasn't done in one take, it was done in many takes stitched together, and there was rehearsals and everyone involved knew what it was about. No one was threatened not to be paid for laughing in this one scene. One of the guards was part of the writing team and was important in the making of the film. The guards laughing at the correct time was important to the story as it was how Brian escaped. This myth of "extras not getting paid for laughing is ridiculous.

Ok, can't wait for this reaction! But a big yes to their TV series! (and NOT just individual sketches taken out of context from them, like some reactors do!)

This was being filmed about the same time as Star Wars and I think some of the scenes of Tattooine were filmed on the same location in Tunis, as well as scenes from "Jesus of Nazareth" which was a mini-series on tv that year. The alien scene was the python's way of paying homage to Star Wars.

[@jeffnorwood-brown8407]

I think I heard that, as this came out around Star Wars/The Empire Strikes Back, they thought they'd put an alien scene in so they could have a spaceship on the adverts/trailers to attract Sci-Fi fans.

[@JHNoble]

1) it looks a bit like a Yellow Submarine, and George Harrison put up much of the funding after the studio pulled out. 2) it works as an incredibly ridiculous, absurd, and over the top deus ex machina, just to get Brian from the top of the tower to the ground.

Spike Milligan did a sketch with the then Prince Charles, it was hilarious and years later Spike insulted Prince Charles in a speech, in front of Prince Charles. Comedy Genius.

One of the rare movies where my name is in it, Roderick 😂 Also History of the world part 1. Is also a great one, by Mel brooks Or loaded weapon with Sam jackson Side note, love the Kim possible inspired look Toy 😉

[@chasestreet8082]

Watching Toy and Tori react to Monty Python is a perfect way to start my weekend! I love all of you ladies here, but there's just something special about the combination of Toy, Tori and Monty Python. Then you have Holly's amazing editing that somehow manages to keep the best bits intact while still avoiding the dreaded YT block. So many amazing scenes in this movie, and it was a joy to watch this reaction. From Stan wanting to become Loretta so he can have babies ("Symbolic it is... The struggle against reality) to Biggus Dickus, to the full frontal surprises just lying in wait for YT Reactors... This movie has it all, and Toy and Tori's facial expressions, commentary and their physical gestures make this reaction solid gold! After seeing this movie at least 25 times, you had me laughing the entire way through just like it was a first time viewing so thank you!! FWIW: Apologies for my rambling! 🤣

[@toy4871]

Thank you so much! No please don't apologize. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. From the reactions to the editing. This movie had a lot of interesting and fun scenes which made for a great watch. 😊. Thank you for watching with us and I hope you are having an amazing weekend. 😊😊😊❤

Before the cinema, they did a TV show, "Monty Python Flying Circus." You should like it.

[@toy4871]

Sounds fun. Might have to see a few episodes. 😊. Do you have any favorites? 😊❤

[@jeromedeparis]

Personally, I really like "Archeology today"(Episode 21) " Michael Ellis" (Episode 41) and "The cycling tour" (Episode 34). Have a nice day Toy.

[@jeromedeparis]

[@embran8486]

¨That was me in the show. you see, I was in the very back.¨ - says Toy with a smile as if recalling a fond memory. Not a minute later younger Toy shown getting her face pummeled. 🤣🤣🤣 (also Toy annoyed at her husband cursing? Our mischievous Toy?)

[@toy4871]

Lol well it was funny because I had gone to an event that I thought was just a concert with music. My friend and I went to see a band. After they were finished their set, she and I head to the bar which was in the back of the room. Her and I were kicked out for talking too loud but we couldn't hear each other. However, we had no idea we were speaking over someone's poetry reading 😳😬🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️. Lol, it was so embarrassing and before tori and I got ready to watch The Life of Brian, I told her what had happened 😅.

[@embran8486]

@@toy4871 Love this anecdote but don´t know the link with what I talked about though?

[@Alcagaur1]

Python drew from their British public school experiences - we, their fellow survivors, recognise the games session (stoning) and Latin lesson (graffiti), although in most cases without the stones and gladius respectively. Also in typical MPFC fashion, the spoken section of "Bright Side" over the credits basically refers to their difficulties getting funding for the film. Originally, Lord Lew Grade of ITC had pledged the money, but then at the eleventh hour it was pulled, possibly due to advice from his brother, the impresario Lord Bernard Delfont. George Harrison of the Beatles stepped in, putting up his multi-million pound home as collateral for the loan that financed the film (via HandMade Films created for this project). Hence, "I said to him, 'Bernie,' I said, 'they'll never make their money back.'"

[@SeanRCope]

The Beatle George Harrison mortgaged his home to make this movie. Very good friends with the python crew.

Ok so the Brits are weirdos.. Here are two movie suggestions for you that I know you like.. One is an acclaimed for its action indonesian movie and the other is an American comedy both are great and will make for good reactions for your channel 1. The Raid: Redemption (2011) 2. The Adventure Of Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother (1975)

Tea time can mean when tea is had in the afternoon (high tea, low tea, etc.) maybe 3pm but I think here MP means the more informal tea time, the early supper which can typically be a lighter meal (when lunch is the main dinner) c. 6pm. This whole debate will open a whole can of worms depending on where and when you were raised: I'm just giving my experience when growing up.
