Family Holy Grail Screening

sonar732 · 02-25-08, 09:44 AM

Well,

I was watching Monty Python's classic Holy Grail with my family last night and the reaction from my wife was a classic one. Even my kids were saying how silly it was. Granted, my four year old came to our bed at 6 am because the multi-eyed monster scarred her. By the way, she was smiling while telling us this.

My dorm floor introduced me to MPHG back in the early 90's and I've loved all of the series. Each time that I was laughing my but off, my wife just looked at me with a puzzled look "British humor again?". Yep! Wait until I show her Benny Hill videos!:rotfl::rotfl:

I really wish more Python was aired these days.

However, I'm not sure how it would go down with todays younger generation, for example, my wife is 4yrs younger than me and she just doesn't get Python at all, whereas, it leaves me in tears.

Don't even start me on Life of Brian.

I grew up with Python. Tapes on long family car journeys, movies whenever we could catch them.
Dialogue from the series/films has worked it's way into my familys daily conversation, I don't even notice it anymore

Geting Python is not an age thing, ita a taste thing. Those who dont get it simply have no taste.:p

Gotta love Python

My wife and I are the only ones I know who actually find British humor funny.
