Monty Python & The Holy Grail MOVIE REACTION (first time watching)

[@petercofrancesco9812]

It's great when a reactor genuinely gets the humor. People either get the movie or they don't.

[@kschneyer]

I agree!

[@martinhafner2201]

The weird font in the beginning credits is meant to be a sort of Swedish or Norwegian accent and included northern stuff like moose. Then later it went South American with their typical bright colors and llamas, which are South American animals related to camels. The llama theme (e.g. Ralph the Wonder Llama) was such a hit that my nearby Boy Scout summer camp still publishes the "Llama News" daily during summer camp and has a special llama themed skit with a multitude of llama heads on sticks and excessive frivolity. I still have a small stuffed llama toy with a Boy Scouts neckerchief that I bought from the camp store. I wove a tiny one of those woggle slides (3 lead, 5 bight turk's head knot) to hold the neckerchief in place. Ralph perches near my computer screen at all times.

[@andrew-vc1gd]

You have to love a beautiful woman who totally gets Monty Python. You are the first reactor that actually even got the opening credits, and paused them to read them all. Monty Python is a comedy troupe that did several movies, and had a half hour TV show for several years. I highly recommend you watch all of their stuff. Also, the animator is Terry Gilliam, who later goes on to direct Brazil, Time Bandits and several other movies. you are right when you said the writers (all of them) were so smart. All of their stuff has so many layers but that is what makes it funny - it is completely ridiculous and subtly intellectual at the same time. I subscribed because of your reaction.

[@libertyresearch-iu4fy]

Not the first, but certainly one of the few who read the opening credits.

[@dumy187]

I think that pausing poses some logistics complexity for synchronizing audio and video. I think that's why reactors tend to be shy about pausing. Gilliam also plays the Green Knight in this movie.

[@Patreides9]

"12 Monkeys"... (with Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe and Brad Pitt in it).

[@martinhafner2201]

"Smart" is an understatement. Arthur's response about the unusual presence of coconuts in England : "The swallow may fly south ..." is the translation of an excerpt from a medieval falconry manual by King Frederick II of the Holy Roman Empire. It was only translated in the early 20th century and Arthur's words are an exact quote from the translators' book. Only someone who reads obsessively would have even come across it. I had my suspicions when I looked closely at the coconut/swallow skit. It took about an hour to find the original sources. These guys had no internet in 1975 to chase it down, so they just knew about it and probably owned the book. It was probably Terry Jones, who was a medieval historian.

British humour not humor, humor is a sub standard version of humour. British humour covers all humour, all other countries have a small subset of the overall humour available, so its not an acquired taste its that others have a limited understanding of the overarching humour, ie USA-ians who only get to a relatively low limited level of humor, hence the limited spelling humor, representing the limited amount they are able to comprehend(John Cleese explained this, not me saying it(honest)).

The word knight services from a German word that sounds very much like kniggett

[@Nazdreg1]

@@leftyslimm7222 If you refer to the word "knecht", yes it is related to "knight". "Knecht" means "serf", but i.e. "Waffenknecht" or "Kriegsknecht" refers to a regular armoured soldier or a man at arms. However, the German word isn't pronounced with "g". The "ch" is more a hissing sound, better described as a devoiced "y" in "young". Similarly, the "gh" in "knight" used to be the same sound. There is a video of a charming lady speaking Shetlandic on wikitongues. At some point, she uses the world "slight". Notice how she pronounces it. This is the correct sound as her dialect retained this pronunciation.

Each member of Monty Python plays multiple characters in their films.

The word "Ni!" used to evoke terror in medieval times as it was synonymous with the unknown. At some point it was discovered that Ni referred to a hard, malleable, ductile, silvery metallic substance that resists corrosion, causing most people fearing to suddenly realize that their cowering was largely unnecessary.

Love your reaction. Always good to see fellow people who enjoy this kind of humor :D Now with all the best, I'll fart in your general direction!

When you hit upon the idea that the French castle might be the same as the first castle, that's actually not far from the truth. Behind the scenes, they rented time at a bunch of castles in Scotland, but because the Scottish tourism board got cold feet and revoked permission before they filmed, they only had access to Doune Castle (which was privately owned) and luckily it was big enough for them to film it at many different angles for the illusion that it was a bunch of different castles for different scenes.

Also, the two main rooms in Swamp Castle (where Prince 'erbert is imprisoned, and where the King and Lancelot come downstairs) were filmed in the same room.

Remember, they fired all the people making the credits. Hence, no credits at the end.
