Full Reaction on Patreon: / life-of-brian-101235817 - Our Patrons got to watch the full length the Monty Python's Life of Brian Movie Reaction more than a month early.
Join us as Toy and Tori follow up their Monty Python and the Holy Grail Reaction with this Monty Python's Life of Brian Movie Reaction. Before recoring the Monty Python's Life of Brian Reaction they expected it to be funny and somewhat nonsensical, like The Holy Grail.
Once they started watching Monty Python's Life of Brian, they quickly discovered that this movie is even more irreverent and ludicrous. Throughout the recording of the Monty Python's Life of Brian Reaction they kept expecting references to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. What they did not expect were aliens, the story of Jesus, and so much more!

Do you think that Biggus Dickus does in fact...?
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.
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.
Irony. Gotta love it!
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?
Life always writes the best stories...
@@clarencewalker3925 Not irony at all.... the congruency in name isn't a coincidence.
@@clarencewalker3925 Just in case it's not clear from the previous comments - it was the same person.
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. 😂😂
My favourite scene too. I was about to mention Spike, absolute legend.
Me too did you guys also notice the Beatle George Harrison?
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.
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.
You killed me...
CZcamsS EUNT DOMUS
I was an extra on GOTs and 200+ extras sang ,the bright side of life in a quarry in Ireland, in a thunderstorm/lightning with multicolored umbrellas ..... I'll never forget it ,it was hilarious ! Horrendous days filming but the singing and whistles carried me through! True story!
I would have bought a flight and a ticket just to see that.
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.
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.
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 😊😊😊❤.
I love the way the Roman soldiers mostly hang around looking bored and watching the shenanigans of the locals with bemusement. 😂😂😂
Had they done their jobs we would not have Jerry Falwell. We'd probably have bases all over the solar system by now.
“Seize him! Blow your noses and seize him!” 😂
It’s rumoured that the extras during the “Biggus Dickus” were told that if they laughed they wouldn’t get paid, and the laughing was genuine.
Was just for the effect though, apparently they did get paid.
Allegedly.
In Germany called SCHWANZUS LONGUS!!!SOO FUNNY
That's 🐂💩!
The "I'm Brian" bit at the end is a bit directly from the 1960 movie Spartacus with Kirk Douglas.
My favourite joke in the whole movie is " He's been taken up " " Oh no there he is " it's the realization there is a logical explanation for something supernatural.
"at first"
@@BDRmongoose I don't remember that part sorry.
doesn't slow them down a bit though does it
"We are all individuals", "I'm not" is my favourite line.
@@BDRmongoose 😆
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 CZcams.
"Your father was a Wo-man". A line that seems to pass most people by.
Not to mention: " Wanks as high as any in Wome"
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'.
Thanks for this tidbit!
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).
@@arwelp You're right, of course. I just shortened the story as I had limited time when commenting.
If you want to see Python at it’s best, check out the eulogy John Cleese delivered at Grahm Chapman’s funeral, available on utube. Chapman (both Brian and Bigus Dickus) was the first Python casualty and was forever after referred to as “the dead one”.
Even though he asked not to be credited, George Harrison from the Beatles funded and produced this movie.
The level of silliness is so sophisticated by this point that it pushes British comedy to a new level
A new level, in the mid 70's
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.
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. 😊😊😂
Thank you Toy, Tori (and Brian!)
The guards pretending to stutter that go back to regular chit-chat with each other as soon as the Roman leaves cracks me up every time!
Wonderful!
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.
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....
😹
You know what a guy named Biggus Dickus and wife Incontinentia Buttus are into..!
😂😂😂😂
*Incontinentia Buttocks
They are roman not Greek!! Lol
Beginning of the movie: “I feel like I’m in Church.”
You are. You are in the Church of Monty Python. 💜🍸
Lol I laughed so hard when Tori was feeling it and started dancing 😂😂😂❤
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! =)
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.
You mean a 4th.. The Life of Brain was the 3rd.
#1 Now for something completely different.
#2 Quest for...
#3 Life of....
#4 Meaning of....
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 :)
Michael palin as the prophet, there will be a time of great confusion, instantly brian falls on him and there is great confufion
Not only is this my favorite Monty Python movie, it’s one of my favorite 70s films. It is absolutely hysterically funny.😂
Thanks for watching here with us! 😊. These films are so great and so funny and I really enjoy getting to watch them here with everyone. 😊😊😊❤
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 .
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.
@@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)
if you look very closely during Graham's (Brian's) nude scene you can tell he is not Jewish
Ah when Toy heard the name Biggus Dickus and said “I like that one” I laughed so hard.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 😁😁😁❤
@@toy4871 We all put our foot in our mouth once in a while. I’m glad you can see the humor in it. Love you Toy!
@davidyoung745 that was funny. I didn't think of it like that at the time but reading your comment I laughed so hard and loud 😂😂😂😂. Much love to you always and I hope you have an amazing day!!! 😊😊😊❤
Q: What's the only thing sexier than Toy?
A: Toy in fishnets.
Geez!
No lies detected!!!
😉😁😁😁❤️
"Are you a virgin?" 😂
Great show, Ladies! ❤
Thank you dear 😊😊😊❤
Just accept it 😉🤣🤣, the song always look in the bright side of life is always on my music playlist, great reaction 👍👍
Lol that's a great song to add! I might just have to do the same and play it on bad days to remind me to look on the bright side 😊😊😊❤❤. Thanks 😊❤
@@toy4871 Monty Python have some other great songs also, if you all do Monty Pythons" the meaning of life" reaction you will see, they are hilarious.
"Erik The Viking", "Yellowbeard", and "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" all share more than a little DNA with Monty Python and give similarly wacky vibes.
I’m loving your reactions to one of the best ones.
You missed out on the best bit, though.
Brian: You’re all individuals!
Crowd: Yes! We’re all individuals!
Brian: Exactly! You’re all different!
Crowd: Yes! We’re all different!
One man in crowd: I’m not
This was lovely.
This film was banned in all sorts of places, which proves its balls.
All love from Sweden… 💙🥂
♥️ to you as well!
They were making this movie at the height of Star Wars fame, and all the space operas that followed, so just threw the alien scene in to play off that.
It's actually a reference to a bit in the gospels where Jesus is tempted by Satan, who takes him to a high place and challenges him to jump as God will send his angels to catch his fall.
It might also be a reference to the Old Testament Book of Ezekial, which in part reads like a UFO sighting. See Erik Von Daniken's Chariots of the Gods.
Brian ascended into the Heavens like a proper messiah.
Don't worry brian was up walking around 3 days later
During the Falklands War between Britain and Argentina in 1982 the Argentines sunk the British Navy ship HMS Sheffield.
When the crew of HMS Sheffield abandoned ship and were all on life rafts watching their ship sink they all started singing "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life".
Producer's note: I first read your comment a couple of hours ago and I've had Sabaton - Back in Control stuck in my head ever since. 😸
Nobody on CZcams 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"!
It's not the despair, Laura. I can stand the despair. It's the hope!
Loads of people in Britain have the song at the end at their funeral
Fwow him to the Fwoor!
The Bigus Dickus scene was planned between the cast, but unknown to the extras and crew! The reactions you see are genuine as they try to hold it together. If you listen you can even the crew laugh!
😹 Brilliant!
I like the fact that John Cleese gets to re-enact his role as a latin teacher for this movie. It's a lost art it seems. In the UK there is a whole class of people who believe they are superior just for understanding it. I am not even kidding.
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"
A BEATLE made this movie possible! The Studios didn't want to invest in this Movie, So Eric Idle showed the script to his friend George Harrison! George liked it so much, he got other performers to invest and even mortgaged his own home to Finance it! He has a non-speaking hidden Cameo in the Movie as well.
Oh no way! I wanna see if I can spot him. Very cool 😊😊❤
Toy looking absolutely gorgeous in this video. Very excited to watch this one with you both, as I haven’t seen it in forever!
19:12 is seared into my brain ;)
Thank you so much. I hope you had as much fun as we did 😊😊😊❤❤
@@toy4871 Mucho fun!
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.
True fans of the film have always believed that a second film was imminent, but to this day we are still waiting....
My guess there aren't that much Monty Pythons movies.
I remember "Live at the Hollywood Bowl" and"The meaning of life"
Toru should be in every reaction. She is so cute. Great one girls. Notice how quickly you saw that Brian was not Jesus, and yet when the film was released there were so many saying it was a blasphemous portrayal of the Messiah' life!! It was banned in so many places for so long. Praise the Gourd.
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! 🤣
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. 😊😊😊❤
Love, love, love Monty Python. Fun reactions with TNT (Toy N Tori).
😊😊😊❤❤ thank you!
Terry Gilliam has made a couple of films that have a distinct Monty Python feel to them. Jabberwocky, Time Bandits and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. All are great bizarre comedies.
That's so funny because I saw the jabberwocky on youtube and started to play it. I thought to myself "is this a Monty python movie?" 😂😂😂😂. I got to the part where the guy was in the boat preaching his love to that girl and saw that awkward scene 😂 but had no time after to finish it. But I'm absolutely interested in finishing it 😊😊😊❤. Thank you so much!
This was a really good 🙌🏽 I always enjoy reactions with toy & Tori 💙
Thank you! 😊😊❤❤
Man, watching this movie on Easter should be duty! Like watching die hard on christmas 😂
You should watch the British TV series "Monty Python's Flying Circus" and also "Fawlty Towers" with Python alumnus John Cleese.
its all on DVD!! watch all that and you will understand about all the crazy graphics they made!
I'm in the intro, I'd freak out if you guys did the show! They're only a half hour each, and not long seasons. So many classic bits and sketches! Season 2 is a particularly classic season, I'd almost say start with season 2, the first two episodes of that one are super iconic, and the whole season is really strong, but the first and third seasons have classic stuff in them too, most definitely. 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!)
Yes, more Python please. Meaning of Life, Hollywood Bowl and Flying Circus are funny
I agree! More python! I love the fun humor. 😊❤ thank you
Great reaction - loved the way you got so into it and enjoyed it!
Thank you so much! 😊❤❤
First time I see a reaction to the angel shot at the beginning. Hilarious af
Sadly, you're too young to know the legendary Spike Milligan as the guy who had no followers in the Shoe vs Gord scene.
Jeez Louise! Great reaction. Subbed!😂
Jeez Louise! Great comment. Thank you!😹
😂😂😂 thanks for the sub! You rock!😊❤🤘🏼
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.
That end song is played on many many funerals ;) I think I choose eitger it or dubstep xD
It's always so funny. Americans are obviously not used to seeing nudity in movies or on TV. 😂
9:31 a lot of people don't want to hear that this scene hasn't aged well, but the girls' appalled reaction is spot on.
They didn't seem appalled. You say it hasn't aged well but men can't have babies but they do make it clear they respect how people feel. It's pretty spot on really without being insulting.
I think it's aged great and I love it!
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 😉
Yes. Just accept the aliens scene. Monty Python was the king of random (in their sketches even more so than in their movies)....which was utterly revolutionary at the time when particularly TV comedy had become very formulaic.
So the "Biggus Dickus" scene, they didn't tell the guards it was a comedy,and told them if they broke character they wouldn't get paid. So the painful looks trying not to laugh is genuine.
They did pay them, though.
Here's a heads up, some a**hole is gonna write a comment saying that this wasn't true at all. Been writing this info before and this d*ckwad always write back saying "nah this isn't true at all!"
They must have known it was a comedy, but they were told not to laugh.
That's funny! 😂😂😂😂❤
I do prefer Meaning of Life, so I hope you won't skip it.
There are also a bunch of movies with 2 or more Pythons, so there's more to explore.
Nice!!!!😍😁😁
You two keep saying, “Jeez!” and, “Jesus”, when you SHOULD be saying, “Bria!” or “Brian!” 😂
😹
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.
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.
@@JHNoble Nice!
Fabulous reaction and so funny ... thank you all three of you
😻 Thanks for watching with us!
So glad you liked it. Thank you! 😊😊😊❤️
Tv show, then Brazil directed by terry gilliam but not full Monty. Then fawlty towers, clockwise, and 12 monkeys.
Alright! TN'T. My favorite Run To The Movies pair up.
😊😊😊❤❤
5:51 Love the way you play with your hair Toy! 😁
Lol I tried to make a beard too 😂😂😂😁😁❤❤
Don't jump into the show directly but first react to some skits, I recommend the Spam Sketch, The argument clinic, and the dead parrot sketch.
I remember when I was younger I saw a commercial for Monty Python and it said " this parrot is no more. It cease to exist." 😂😂😂. Is that the parrot one? I mean, I don't know how many would have parrots, but I think that is so funny that just hit me. 😂😁.
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.
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"
@@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...
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.
@@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.
they were very respectful - have a close look at the scene where they are running through the streets... the camera 'pans left' for a moment, revealing the REAL messiah scene.. :)
The Monty python troupe made a movie called "and now for something completely different" that is a compilation of the best bits from the TV show
The guy in the red headscarf at 27:04 is George Harrison.
its right for you to wear a fishnet shirt while watching life of brian
Makes one think of kasseler for sure.
¨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?)
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 😅.
@@toy4871 Love this anecdote but don´t know the link with what I talked about though?
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.
A stoning rocks
You have to see Meaning Of Life next.
Sure, the Monty Python TV series is great fun! I'd also suggest Time Bandits and the video of the Monty Python live show at the Hollywood Bowl in 1980!
Here we go, thank you for watching this.
Thanks for watching with us, as always!
@@RuntotheMovies thanks Max, top man
Thank YOU! Always great to see you watching with us 😊😊❤
Before the cinema, they did a TV show, "Monty Python Flying Circus."
You should like it.
Sounds fun. Might have to see a few episodes. 😊. Do you have any favorites? 😊❤
Personally, I really like "Archeology today"(Episode 21) " Michael Ellis" (Episode 41) and "The cycling tour" (Episode 34).
Have a nice day Toy.
.... And "Scott of the Antarctic" (Episode 23)
@@jeromedeparisawesome!!! Thank you!! 😊😊😊❤ and I hope you have a great day too! 😊❤
You should definitely see Monty Python's Flying Circus. However, it might be a bit long for a reaction. As a substitute, you could always watch And Now For Something Completely Different, which is basically a collection of sketches from the first two seasons of the show.
Next Monty Python, Meaning of Life!
Toy's smile is dangerous.
Men fall in love with a smile like that!
Yes. Yes, we do.
No, we certainly don't!

@@Vinterfrid we do.
Thank you so much! Love and appreciation to you all! 🥰😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️✌🏽✌🏽
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.
About time you girls got around to this 🤩. "Alms for an ex lepar...". 😅
Terry Gilliam does all the animations too. This movie is too funny, timeless classic 😂🤣
I've got a great one for you. It's called Joe's Apartment. So funny. So 90s. Trigger warning: adorable, adorable insects.
Lol oh my. I wanna see adorable bugs! 😁❤
@@toy4871 Looking forward to it.☺️
there's a clip on YT of Cleese and Palin debating two Anglican church officials about whether Life of Brian is sacrilegious or not.
Not the Nine O'Clock News (incl. Rowan Atkinson) did a brilliant send up of that event with this excellent skit: czcams.com/video/asUyK6JWt9U/video.html

great reaction
Thanks for watching with us! 😸
My favourite monty python movie, for me this is them at their finest 😜
Toy: this was definitely a watch 😊😊😊❤️
I lost my breath in the movie theater when the aliens appeared remember this was 78 the year after Star Wars so space movies were like the big thing so it’s like a big joke. They throw in a space movie scene.
I needed that.
Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊😊😊❤
