#BiggusDickus #MontyPython #reaction - Zábava
The best part about this was that the actors playing the soldiers were not told of the maority of the skit and what would be said so the laughter and them trying NOT to laugh, is all real.
they were told if they laughed they wouldn't be paid
@@nrellis666 no they werent
correction: it is all weal.
Why monty python were the best at these movies.
@@kanegavin9605 I thought they were just told not to laugh, nothing to do with payment
This scene literally put me in hospital. I had my appendix removed and after being discharged from hospital I watched this on DVD. I laughed so hard, I split my stitches.
Wow, actually side-splitting. Hope you were alright afterwards!
@@Torthrodhel Sadly, he actually passed away from the incident.
@@dannyspelman1468 I am going to ask twice, due to the nature of youtube comment sections. I will take it completely sincerely unless you make it the slightest bit obvious I shouldn't be (which it currently isn't).
Make sure nobody tells you "The Funniest Joke in the World."
czcams.com/video/FBWr1KtnRcI/video.html
@@dannyspelman1468 Hahaha.
It was banned in my mum’s home town in Aberystwyth.
Decades later, the actress who played Brian’s girlfriend became the town mayor.
They had a triumphant screening of the film in the local cinema and threw a massive party - which Michael Palin and Terry Jones attended. Everyone had a blast.
And the funny thing?
They found out the film had never actually been banned: the miserable sod behind it forgot to file the paperwork.
This is so funny lmao it's like a Month Python script! 😂
yep was living in Bangor and as you say it was banned --- but then Pubs closed on Sundays as well.
Sue Jones-Davies
“Forgot”. I bet that person thought it was ridiculous and promptly “forgot” to file it.
"Forgot" to file the paperwork. :D
It's such a SIMPLE joke, but raised to epic levels here. Arguably one of the greatest comedy sequences of all time.
I like the "Romanes Eunt Domus" scene better.
"I'm not the messiah" comes to mind.
@@monicarodrigues985 The crucifixion scene comes to mind, and so does my wife!
@@samsowden Always look at the bright side of life ;D
"what have the Romans ever done for us......." hahaha "NOTHING!!" hahaha so funny
This film caused quite a stir when it came out with some members of the church up in arms saying how blasphemous it was, it was even banned in some towns - the actress that played Judith (the women who ran in and asked for Brian to be released) became mayor of one town that had banned the film, her first task was to remove that ban.
He was a very naughty boy...
It was banned in NOrway, while in Sweden the film was showed, with the comment that Norway banned the film because it was too funny.
@@nielswil Love that idea. Got to love the Swedes
I'm a pretty strong Christian and I was never offended by this. An actor portraying Christ does appear in the film, but He's never mocked. Sure, they make fun of others who are listening to Him, but they treat Him respectfully. Things have gotten worse as Jesus today is continually mocked by media, and no one cares...
@@nielswil It was banned in my town of Eastbourne on the South Coast if England. It might have been 'understandable' 10-15 years before, but it just made them all look silly!
the nice thing is that the laughter of the actors is real, even from people behind the cameras
The laughter was weal. 😉
They are very good actors, the laughing is acted.
@@peterdemkiw3280 “No it isn’t.”
How do you know
I love the way Brian and Biggus Dickus are the same person.
Kinda begs the question... who exactly was the infamous Roman father of Brian? Might've actually been Biggus himself! ;)
The six pythons played forty different characters in the film
@@Clemppu Since Brian is portraied as a Jesus character his father remains a mysterie.
@@zidahya
His father is mentioned in the film there is no doubt who he was, we just don't see him.
It's been the gag for Monty Python since the beginning
In that first scene, Michael Palin puts on a comedy workshop. He wears that toga like he was born in it. His timing is impeccable. The pause before he says "He has a wife, you know" is perfection.
I did not find that "wisible".
When the first Roman soldier was taken away, that was Brian cue to crawl away but he missed this cue. From " I will not have my friend ridiculed by the common soldiery" was completely improvised by the guy playing the Roman Governer. That little nod at 4:07 was a nod to the director after signalling to him to keep going with the scene even though they were off script. That's why the rest of the actors playing the soldiers were ready trying hard to hold their laughters, those were real. Thankfully, he added it in the final edit of the film.
That's Pontius Pilate played by Michael Palin.
Widiculed*
The extra bit was the icing on the cake! Thanks for sharing that info.
It's even more amusing in hindsight when you learn a legion that was sent to Caledonia (Scotland) had a notable centurion serving in it named Marcus Cocceius Firmus.
Then you will probably laugh yourself silly when you learn that one of the more common first names in Rome was "Sextus"
Ever wondered what made people coin the word Peninsular.
This is the Monty Python's masterpiece. Funny from start to finish
I agree...many of the Python Films are hilarious but this....THIS is Python at their best.
But it get's better: On Live US TV.... they told John Cleese/Michael Palin/Erice Idle (Can't remember who exactly)
that some backwater state of the USA had lifted its statewide-wide-ban of Life Of Brian beiing shown in cinemas.
After something like 25 years after its release to which....
One of the above said: "Is nothing sacred?" Classic. That is British Humour. We get it.
This scene is the closest I've ever seen John Cleese come to breaking into laughter, he holds it back a few times.
Michael Palin almost broke a couple of times too, lol
when our child was 1 we bought them a little purple rabbit. they kept throwing it down like babies do. husbo started with "fro him to the fwoor" we called the rabbit Bwain.
😂
A lot of Monty Python’s movies have survived the test of time pretty well. So if you enjoyed it, you might want to watch them fully :-) They are really good and you should enjoy them as much as this clip.
dito
They have indeed survived the test of time. Unfortunately though, they have not survived the evolution of culture. These scenes are no considered to be prejudicial to those with a lisp and British TV will no longer allow them to be played.
A local movie theater was trying to reopen and was showing oldies like The Godfather, Love Story...AND...The Holy Grail. I took my son who was 12 at the time and after the scene of the Black Knight("Kaaaaaa...niggets"), he was hooked as a Python fan.
As the scroll is ripped from Cleese's hands his eyes pop open as if he's expecting the worse, than as it's read up out loud you see him break (short moment as he's "hidden" behind the other actor... I believe John Cleese breaking (in to laughter) unscripted is a rare moment to see
I'd never noticed it before.
John Cleese breaking isn't that rare. In the "witch village" scene in _Monty Python and the Holy Grail_ , watch him as the peasant just after he slaps Eric Idle's arm and shushes him (after Idle yells "More witches!"). He then turns his head over his right shoulder right before the cut to try to hide that he has lost it and has a full-on grin.
No matter what Monty Python did, it was always hilarious. A firework of gags that you can't grasp at first glance.
Biggus Dickus and his wife Incontinence gets me every time. 😂😂
@nexus169 Incontinentia
Incontinentia Buttocks 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've lost count of how many times I've watched this....still cracks me up. Cheers!
Me too 👌👍
*When I was in college, one of my favorite things to do was practice the lines for my roommates- complete with falsetto voices…* 😁
*Mom: You father was a ROMAN, Brian!*
*Brian: WHAT?! You were RAPED?!*
*Mom: Welllll… at first-* 😂
------
*Mom: Oh, COME on, Brian!… I want to go to the stoning!*
*Brian: Ohhh, all right…*
*Vendor: Wanna buy some rocks, suh?*
*Mom: Buy ROCKS?!? Lookit! There’s LOTS of them lyin’ around on the ground!*
*Vendor: Ohhh, not like THESE, suh! Look at the quality!… That’s CRAFTSMANSHIP, suh!*
*Mom: Ohhh, ALL roight. Give me 3 flat ones, 2 with points, an’ a packet o’ gravel.*
*Vendor: Ohhh, VERY GOOD, suh! There you go, and enjoy the stoning! Great day fer it!* 😃
*Not perfect, but I don’t have all day- I haven’t seen it in 20 years!)..* 😎👍🏼
If I had a dollar for the amount of times I've seen this film, I'd have $155.50 - the fifty cents due to the fact that I had to stop the film half way to go out! 🤣
😁🇬🇧👍 Fucking Gwate.
I think you mean “quacks”…
As someone from the UK I always find it very odd that others from other places in the world don’t know Monty Python movies and in particular Life of Brian, arguably their greatest movie. It’s hilarious from start to finish. The humour is very British, so if you’re from farther afield, it may be difficult to get the gist in the beginning but you’ll catch on quickly. It is very cleverly written by the Python team and the performances are great. A classic. The song at the end is brilliant....I won’t spoil it for you. P.S. check out Monty Python and the Holy Grail too!! Another classic.
Ni!
@@vernonbrazle1070NI!
Still one of the greatest movies ever told. "I"m Brian....and so's my wife!" BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Holy crap, I never caught the joke for "he ranks as high as any in Rome" before. That's amazing. Guess I just got too used to the speech impediment.
Brian: "You are all special". Crowd in unison: "Yes, we are all special". Lone man: "I'm not", best bloody point in the best bloody quasi philosophical comedy of all time - Shakespeare and Sophocles included.
I thought he said "You are all individuals. You're all different. " Which makes the "I'm not." even funnier.
Do you find… Anything funny… About the name… Biggus Dickus?
*different, not special. That’s the whole joke.
This movie is hilarious from start to finish. I don’t know if you have already seen their movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I can recommend them both. To give you an example of their unique sense of humor: at the beginning of The Holy Grail you hear the sound of a horse riding. Then you see someone running with a guy behind him banging two halves of a coconut together. It is a brilliant joke that they thought of, just because they were on a tight budget, so they could not afford real horses.
you must bring us.............a shrubbery!!
@@scar445 A what?? NI, NI, NI!!!
That was Patsy!
But the coconut joke was such a theme throughout the story. A theme that was hard to swallow.
@@brendanh8193 what do you mean? European or African swallows?
When the governor says the name of biggest Dicus wife, the loud laughter you hear is actually a cameraman. They left it in the scene. The crew didn’t know the script so it was a surprise.
"blow your noses and seize him." I love it when Michael Palin (Pontius) is nearly corpsing when he's standing behind the two soldiers.
From what I heard, everything after the guard snickered and he turned on him was ad lib and it worked so much better than what was originally going to happen that they just threw out the original.
The whole movie is just hillarious, absolut comedy gold! Another great scene is the latin teaching lesson 🤣
And the stoning
@@carinalundstrom7566 Of course. Not to forget the question, what the romans EVER did for us 😉
"he's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy"
I love the latin lesson, because I was subjected to a year of trying to learn the bloody language. My teacher was exactly like the Cleese Centurion. And I was exactly like Brian; too scared to think straight.
"Now, don't do it again."
The part with the Roman guard practically having to hold himself up with his spear while laughing at Biggus Dickus’ lisp had me rolling
if i remember right the movie had a seriusly low budget , but one of the best tricks monty python did for the scene is that with out telling the guards what was in the scene , they where told not to break character and if they did they would be removed from set with out pay (which was a lie and the funniest part is the roman leaders secret task was to do what ever he could to get the soldiers to luagh , leading to the addlib that made the scene so much better )
The guys portraying centurions had the easiest acting job of their lives when the director told them to act like they were unable to keep themselves from laughing. I've no idea how they got through filming that scene. At a couple of points in the scene you can see even Michael is having trouble not laughing at his own lines.
You know what other acting jobs Charles McKeown (first guard to laugh), Chris Langham (guard pulling the face), Andrew MacLachien (behind Brian on the right) and Bernard McKenna (behind Brian to the left) had do you?
Why do you think this job was the easiest, between them the four actors played 12 different roles in the film, and scene 13 is one of the best scenes in any film, thanks to brilliant writing and fantastic acting.
Dude, you really owe it to yourself to watch the whole movie.
And also watch Monty python and the holy grail , hilarious!
"That would be meee!"
The funniest part is that he looks just like you
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The song from this film; 'Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life', was sung by the survivors of HMS Coventry while waiting to be rescued from their burning, sinking ship during the Falklands Business.
Really? I thought they sang the theme song of JAWS! 🤣
That is one of my favorite songs!
And on the Opening Ceremony at Olympic games in London, in 2012...
'You've all got to think for yourselves.' 'Yes, we've all got to think for ourselves.' Then 'What should we think ? '
After the film was released the archbishop of Canterbury had a go at Cleese and Palin on tv, they promptly ripped him a new one. Nuff said
No, the Archbishop of Canterbewwy wasn't very amused at all
It was the Bishop of Southwark, Mervyn Stockwood, who with Malcolm Muggeridge debated the movie with the Python team - having got to the movie showing late, they’d missed the opening scene which makes it plain that Brian is not Jesus. This led to the hilarious parody debate on Not the Nine O’Clock News about the movie “The General Synod’s Life of Christ” - “This Jesus Christ bloke is clearly a parody of the Comic Messiah himself, Our Lord John Cleese - he’s even got the same initials, for God’s sake!”.
This was by far Monty Pythons best movie. I've probably watched it 30 times now and still laugh. Every time.
Palins' Pontius Pilot was the highlight of the film for me... I laugh every time, it's so funny. Palin is a class act & such a nice man.
This, for me, was Michaels finest hour.
OMG you need to watch the whole movie, the social commentary are fkng amazing 😭😭😂😂
Watch the whole movie. You won't regret it. This and The Holy Grail make a nice double feature.
Every time I watch this I try to keep it in, like the soldiers, and end up howling with laughter, like the soldiers. It is brilliant.
Graham Chapmen had THE best poker face when it came to delivering lines like this. And even here you can see him just faintly begin to crack under the moment but he reeled it all in again.
Apparently the whole cast was told that if they cracked and laughed they wouldnt get paid. So thats why they are all keeping it in so tightly, naturally they knew no one would last but it would make the scene all the more better as they each found other methods to try not to laugh.
Love this film....Life of Brian is Hilarious. I recommend you watch the whole film. It's the best way to appreciate the genius comedy of this Monty Python film.
"Found this spoon Sir!" "Good work Sergeant!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is the classical era's equivalent of "try not to laugh challenges"
Classic? I mean it is a classic, but it's pure counter culture... Classical would be "the culture Monty Python is making fun of". Like Ben Hur or The Ten Commandments or Sparticus. Silver Screen movies and all that hauty culture.
@@Krackonis😑 You might want to learn your history a bit better...
@@Songfugel I was alive during it.
Once the soldier laughed, it was all improvised. None of this was scripted- xD
If you enjoy wordplay with British accents one that's often seen as an exemplar of the genre is definitely the Four Candles sketch by the Two Ronnies. Ronnie Barker was an unparalleled wordsmith and the things he does with them always bring a smile to my face. Mastermind is another great one from them as it's one you as the audience have to concentrate on as well (Specialist subject - answering the question previous to the one just asked.)
'The Life of Brian' was an EXCELLENT film, I was crying laughing, one of the best comedy films ever!!! xx
I think this is amazing spectacle of all in this scene. And so much fun at the same time. All movements and facial expressions, dialogue, looks - all this greatness in combination. Fantastic. Iconic.
When you yelled NO! I almost fell off my chair. LMAO
Although he sees some of the more obvious humour, I’m not convinced Highly Combustible quite grasps the more nuanced side of this classic footage😊
As the last year in our school to have to learn Latin, this & the 'write it out 100 times' scene, totally resonates, too much.
Don't know if taking the piss out of speech impediments is allowed nowadays, but this cracked me up - so Monty Python.
My favorite part of the film is where Brian is chased up a tower under and falls off - into an alien spaceship that is being pursued by alien, but hostile, spaceship. The whole scene is just so random and quick.
If I remember correctly, that scene was inserted as the Python gang did not have any idea how else Brian would escape from the Roman palace or that tower.
As Star Wars was rather popular at the time they decided to go for a scene in which Brian accidentally falls into a passing spaceship.
It is really random, it comes out of nowhere and then quickly disappears again and no one even mentions it.
@@TheDutchGhost the zinger in that scene is so good. random dude is standing before the tower, sees the whole thing, watches Brian come out of it unharmed, and says something along the lines of, "dude, did you get hella lucky there". could never pick the exact line cos I was in a burst of laughter
@@Varmer he says "Oh you lucky bastard"
Laughing is healthy, do it as often as you can. This showcases comedy in its purest form. Just great!
This film, together with Blazing Saddles, should be made compulsory viewing for ALL pre college kids! All the prejudices and bigotries could be put into context, in a single showing of both!
It took me years to watch this film as I was never a month python fanatic but one night this was on TV and thought nothing else on and give it a go and said to myself what took me so long
. Absolutely classic . Pure geniuses the python team . the spam song creases me up
The funny thing is where he says "That would be me", really does look like it could be him! (and they even cover their mouth to laugh in the same way at the same time)
If you also want to watch several classic sketches by Monty Python you could watch their reunion show in 2014. They performed a lot of their legendary sketches live in the theater. The show is called: Monty Python live (mostly).
this scene in particular has been making me laugh my ass off since the first time i saw it at 13 yrs old. the entire movie is brilliant.
As incredible as it sounds this is actually still the most accurate portrayal of that area during that time, in regards of architecture, clothing and everyday life.
Even if it wasn't for the Beatles, and a very distinguished solo career, just the fact that he financed this movie is enough for George Harrison to make his way into showbiz heaven.
The best money python film of all time. I never get tired of it
This movie came out when I was in high school, and there was MAD controversy because people who HAD NOT SEEN IT got their knickers in a twist because they THOUGHT it was making fun of the Lord Jesus. I was one of the few kids whose parents let them watch it, and I became really popular for a time telling other kids about the film. Eventually, some of them snuck off to see it anyway, then enough people also watched it, and the fervor died down. It remains one of my favorite films.
Exactly. The movie is NOT making fun of Jesus - there's even a short scene paying respect to him. The movie is all about making fun of the stupidity of humanity.
Welease Woderick!! 😂 Fantastic movie.
A touch of bwavado, darwing doooo
Oh about 11 sir
40 years later this still cracks me up
I love improv where everyone including the camera crew is trying not to crack up, that's the best
Not only is the whole film hilarious, it's very precient too - watch the bit where the wicked webels are discussing a man's 'right' to have babies - very funny, and very true to modern life.
This is the British class war in satire. Many of the in-bread aristocracy had speech impediments and the working class would mercilessly mock them, behind their backs of course otherwise the consequences were severe.
The guards in the back while he’s reading the list 😂
When this was released the county I was raised in banned it. We had to travel almost a hundred miles to see it. Utterly brilliant British classic. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
The very first time I saw that, that's going back over 40 years ago, I nearly stopped breathing from laughter. 😂😂
Imagine how many out takes there are for those scenes. My mum is in her 80s and still loves this film.
i crack up everytime. best comedic scene ever.nothing can beat it
Every scene fromLife of Brian is a fucking hoot.
These guys are completely creative. Absolute.
Life of brian great monty python movie ...everytime I see anything to do with monty python that bloody song gets stuck in my head ..
Always look on the bright side of life.
its the way joh cleese slaps him 😂 i dont know why it kills me the way it does
The life of Brian, excellent film and ahead of it’s time
You really need to see the whole film hu will be wetting yourself laughing all the way through
First time I saw this I was 17 (‘91) and I laughed for HOURS.
I saw this movie at least twice when it came out in theaters years ago. Still one of my favorite movies. Hope you get a chance to watch the whole movie. Great reaction, thank you.
Best Biggus Dickus reaction on the internet IMO.
" He commands a crack legion..
He ranks as high as any in Rome."
Yeah... I bet he does..
😅😅😅😅😅😅
i have seen this so many times and i crack up every time. this is so due to the fact the actors face is genuine.
Monty Python's Flying Circus!!! Now that's some old school fun!😂😂 Best watched when nice and relaxed!!💨
Definitely, very relaxed💨
Wow. I saw this in theater the weekend it opened. Still funny.
Wait till Biggus Dickus hears of this.... 🤣🤣
Loved your reaction. It so great seeing somebody really laughing. For another hilarious video consider reacting to Key & Peele-*"Substitute Teacher."* This is an all time classic. Thanks again.
This was absolutely my favorite scene of the movie, being a huge Python fan. If anyone of you haven't ever seen the "Secret Policeman's Ball", I highly recommend it as well as the sequel.
The sequel was, naturally," the Secret Policeman's Other Ball ".
@@brianrodney712 Yes, I remember that, seen it as well. But it's hard to get hold of those. I'd like to have both of those Balls....and never let go of them. Unfortunately they're very hard to come by and I want them so bad. I don't know why those Balls are etched forever in my memory but perhaps they were so wonderful to enjoy. Umm....yeah.....I meant the SHOW...not the actual.....uhh....never mind.
@@cosmo2852 I appreciate your wonderful sense of humour !
@@brianrodney712 Thanks, I have my moments.
Monty Python's had a program that was skits throughout, but this is from a full length movie, which is hilarious from start to finish, as is their movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Funny note, I am from Montreal, Canada, and used to watch this show from an American Public TV Station that used to play it very late Friday nights. And it was the last show to air, and then they would sign off for the night (something all tv stations did back then.) What was funny, was that I would watch an hour of the funniest, silliest television, and the closing song (also hilarious), which was immediately followed by the announcement : "This has been brought to you by Vermont Educational TV." which made me laugh as hard as the show had. Every week, without fail. Just imagine hearing that right after watching the Lumber Jack song/skit. Almost wet myself a few times.
Well - it IS educational - "Here's what humor CAN be if it doesn't give a crap."
The last line is easily missed, "Blow your noses and seize him!" How do they come up with this stuff. Crazy funny.
Making history here. The first Try Not To Laugh Challenge.
I love that u said 'I'm screwed'
lmao...'i.ll be fighting a dang bear in the mornin'...
My dad showed me this a couple of years ago and I couldn’t sleep that night
This movie had the most classic crucifixion scene of ALL time!
I saw this in a theatre when it came out and was killing myself laughing throughout. I was the only one laughing
The backhanders kill me every time
The best Python film ever.. laughed from start to finish, must have seen it 5 or 6 times. Great reaction
The life of Brian
,Classic 😅😂🤣
Watched it back in the days and minimum 10 times
I love monthy python so much. It‘s a tradition in my family to watch this on easter
OMG 🤣 your face at the beginning was priceless!
