Everyone agrees that Holy Grail was great. I thought Life of Brian was good too, but a bit forgettable. What about the rest of their stuff?
-
- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergencies (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

Where we at with da Monty Python?

I think the original series is way better and I personally love Life of Brian.
I had a tough time finding it to download years ago, not sure if that's better now.
It's super self-aware and "meta" and was afaik the first TV show to break the fourth wall, which today may seem kind of dated and hacky.
I cannot name a single bad episode, it's all quality writing and the sometimes shoddy production actually adds to the bit.

not trying to sound like an american edgelord, but holy fuck is that shit overrated
Every unfunny motherfucker I have ever encountered loves this shit.
yeah, enough diplomacy. It fucking sucks shit out of a faggot's asshole
Overrated Brit trash
Some if it's funny but I'll take the likes of Blackadder and Fawlty Towers over Monty Python any day
even keeping up appearances is funnier
It was a good series, but much like Big Lebowski its fanatics get too geeky about it and ruin it. Apparently, they tried to continue the show without Cleese... oof. I watched Live at the Hollywood Bowl countless times as a kid.
If any American poofters want to watch a British series that isn't fifty years old, I recommend Black Books and Toast of London.

When I was like 11/12 I thought Holy Grail and Life of Brian were funny. In hindsight they're dumb fun movies with a few good lines, but it's goofy and British shit. It's fawwkin comedy maaHhn, don't take it too serious! I'd say it's not as funny as Mr. Bean though.
I love how this was a joke back then, and still makes me laugh.
Fags truly are indescrimenate and promiscuous lol

In Bruge, The Guard, Layer Cake, or even something like Snatch or Sexy Beast are all better adult comedies from Britain. VEEP from HBO was made by an Italian Brit. I tried watching Holy Grail last year and I bailed out around halfway through. Just unfunny monotonous garbage. Monty Python is basically childish leftist trash. Even stuff like Jackass that is as base as you can get is more creative.
A better parody of medieval fantasy was the South Park episode where they returned the porno VHS to the store that parodied Lord of the Rings. I laugh at that episode still.

Someone gave me Life of Brian on DVD as a random ass Christmas present like 15 years ago. I still have it but I've never watched it.
Monty python is something you need to watch around 12/13 or else it's just wtf is this nonsense.
As a kid this got me "fuck oarf I'm full"

Try LIB on acid. I've always been a huge Python guy (got to meet Eric Idle) but that movie never grabbed me. For some reason I put it on on LSD a few years ago, now we watch it on on Easter every year to confuse the kids(we're not into Jesus and they barely recognize pictures of "him") and usually on Christmas too(usually on acid as well). After you watch it once on acid, you don't have to be on it every time for it to be awesome but some parts are way nuts.
Meaning of Life I don't know if I'd suggest on acid and it never grabbed me either but I watched it again a couple years ago and it was great.
The reunion/retirement thing was super disappointing.
Also, unpopular opinion: "And Now For Something Completely Different" is the best versions of those early sketches. "Nudge Nudge" and "Parrot" they rush through on the series.
Also amazing is "Live at Hollywood Bowl." That and "ANFSCD" would be my recs to first timers. And then get yourself some acid.
Anyone who doesn't like this sketch is a soulless chink.
I can re-watch Holy Grail, Life of Brian, Meaning of Life, and Jabberwocky once a year and I don't care who knows it.
We're the knights who say "Ni!".
Haha. Ho-lee shit!
