Is the best from The Meaning of Life
 

[Reply #42 on:]

I think a lot of Meaning Of Life is massively underrated.  Admittedly, the beginning of the film is better than towards the end, when it kinda loses it's momentum.

I love the school bit, especially the school prayer (quoted earlier) and the hymn, "Oh Lord Please Don't Burn Us", oh, and sex education.

Right now we're watching the best of Season 2 of MPFS, specifically "Blackmail" which is so good:

"...we'll be showing more of that picture later, unless we hear from Charles or Michael."

I like the military line-up bit.

"Well, sir, I'd rather be reading a book or somethin'"
"REEEEAAAALLY!? Well, off you go then!"

I love the fish:  " 'ere look, Howard's being eaten!"

The Miracle Of Birth: "...and get the machine that goes 'ping'!"

Love it.

"Actually I'm afraid it wasn't a mosquito that bit his leg off afterall...it was, what we call in the medical provession...a tiger!"
"A TIGER!?! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH HHHHHHHHH!!!![/i]"
"A Tiger, in Africa?"
"What?"
"A Tiger, in Africa?"
"....Must have escaped from the zoo..."

[Reply #48 on:]

"mmmm, and if you're playing football, try and favour the other leg"

I just watched this, so it's still kinda fresh:

From the "Mr Creosote" scene:

Man: I'm afraid we have to go"
Woman: Yes, I'm having rather a heavy period.
Man: oh, er.....and we have a train to catch.
Woman: Yes, yes, we have a train to catch!  And I don't want to start bleeding all over the seats.

What is it about sick humour that makes it so funny?

Voiceover: "This man is no ordinary man. This is Mr. H G Superman. To all appearances, he looks like any other law-abiding citizen. But Mr F G Superman has a secret identity. When trouble strikes at any time, at any place, he is ready to become... BICICLE REPAIR MAN!"

[Reply #50 on:]

My Mother likes the Queen Victoria Steeplechase.

[Reply #51 on:]

Bicycle Repair Man is a huge favourite, I also love The Spanish Inquisition, The Oscar Wilde Sketch ("your majesty is like a stream of bats piss" ).

Keep the quotes coming.

[Reply #52 on:]

Can do!

Superman 1: "Oh look... is it a stockbroker?"
Superman 2: "Is it a quantity Surveyor?"
Superman 3: "Is it a church warden?"
Supermen 1-3: "NO! It's Bicycle Repair Man!"

SONG!!:

Immanuel Kant was a real piss-ant who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
who could think you under the table.
 
David Hume could out-consume Schoppenhauer and Hegel.
And Whittgenstein was a beery swine
who was just as sloshed as Schlegel.
 
There's nothing Nieizsche couldn't teach 'ya
    'bout the raising of the wrist.
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.
 
John Stewart Mill, of his own free will
    On half a pint of shanty was particularly ill.
Plato they say could stick it away,
    Half a crate of whiskey every day.
 
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
    And Hoppes was fond of his dram.
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart.
    "I drink, therefore I am."
 
Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's pissed.

and, of course:
"I say, old woman!"
"MAN!"
"Sorry, man! Who lives in that castle?"
"I'm 37!"
"What?"
"I said, I'm 37, I'm not old!"
"Well I couldn't just call you Man, could I!?"
"You could say Dennis!"
"I didn't know you were called Dennis!"
"Well, you never bothered to find out, did you!?!"

"Bicycle Repair Man!?! But how!?!"

Bikepunk: "Oh, this used to be such a nice neighbourhood, before the grannies moved in. Now some of use are too scared to go down the shops anymore!"

Silly, silly, silly!
"Now, no one likes a laugh more than I do.....except my wife...and some of her friends....oh yes and Captain Thompson. Come to think of it, most people like a good laugh more than I do, but that's beside the point!"

Ah,The Image of a couple of Leather Jackets being beaten by Old Ladys with Hambags will remain with me forever.

I watched "The Meaning Of Life" on DVD Yesterday, so I'd heartily agree with you.

I also remeber a party when we all got drunk and tried to sing "The Galaxy Song" from memory.  We couldn't do it. 

[Reply #59 on:]

I remember having the Penis and Lumberjack songs on MP3's once.

[Reply #60 on:]

yeah the Every Sperm is Sacred is a great song but I felt kinda guilty listning to it.

[Reply #61 on:]

Don't worry,They don't live long anyway.

Also,whats the name of that Episode where the Sheep and cars turned evil..?..It had a large amount of animation and:
Scientist:I just really do not know..I really do not know...I really just do not know....

[Reply #62 on:]

I first came across Monty Python in a Year 7/8 science lesson. We had to watch "The Galaxy Song" from the Meaning of Life 'cause we were studying space.

Killer Sheep?  It's from the second season.

The scientist quote sounds like the one from "Science Fiction Sketch" - the Blancmanges from the Planet Skyron in the Galaxy of Andromeda.  That one was cool.

[Reply #64 on:]

I seem to remember Killer Cars from the video "And Now For Something Completely Different" but can't remember what series the original was from.

[Reply #65 on:]

You got to admit the Animation is cheesy,But damn well funny.

The life of Brian Intro was 100% animated and had someone singing a parady of a Bond themetune.

'..he had arms..and legs..and hands!..'

[Reply #66 on:]

Ha!
Meaning of Life was on last night (Irish TV, suckers!)

*sings "Every sperm is sacred!"*

[Reply #67 on:]

Crap I missed it

*sings* "Every Sperm is good"

There are Jews in the world.
There are Buddhists.
There are Hindus and Mormons, and then
There are those that follow Mohammed, but
I've never been one of them.
I'm a Roman Catholic,
And have been since before I was born,
And the one thing they say about Catholics is:
They'll take you as soon as you're warm.
You don't have to be a six-footer.
You don't have to have a great brain.
You don't have to have any clothes on. You're
A Catholic the moment Dad came,
Because

Every sperm is great.
If a sperm is wasted,
God gets quite irate.
CHILDREN:
Every sperm is sacred.
Every sperm is great.

Let the heathen spill theirs
On the dusty ground.
God shall make them pay for
Each sperm that can't be found.
CHILDREN:

Let the Pagan spill theirs
O'er mountain, hill, and plain.

Each sperm that's spilt in vain.

Every sperm is good.
Every sperm is needed
In your neighbourhood.
Every sperm is sacred.

Sorry, I just love that line.

You know...everybody likes the "Sperm" song, but it never really struck me as one of my favourites.

I think "The Galaxy Song" is much better.

I'm a huge Monty Python fan. It was probably the first thing I was obsessed with. The problem is, most of the Monty Python things I have are either on vinyl or cassette as when I really got into it I didn't own a cd player. 

I need to get downloading.

i've seen monty python and the holy grail, and monty pythons flindegar zircus[or somthing like that] "he has made them damp in bavaria! yes in bavaria! and has scared them s***less!" " yes in bavaria! and not in venusuala!" "yes in bavaria! where the trees are made of wod!"      it just keeps going! and the starting for the 1st monty pythons flindegar zircus[or somthing like that]. the animation is timeless. andin holy grail. then, the animator suffered a fatal heart attack!"

In year 8 the teachers couldn't be bothered to teach us about space and so just played that song over and over again...

[Reply #78 on:]

I've never watched any Monty Python films before ever.

*Cowers* Please dont hurt me!

But I want to, I'd be quite interested in seeing one or some of them. One of my best friends has "The Meaning of Life", "The Life of Brian" and "The Holy Grail" on DVD. She's a big fan. My other best friend bought her a Monty Python t-shirt for her birthday once. If I recall, it had a white rabbit on it, and a knight with no head...erm...I think. Didn't make sense to me, but she seemed to love it anyway

Trust me, it's very, very funny.         See?

I saw Eric Idle live on stage in September/03 (or was it October?) as part of his "Greedy Bastard Tour".  He actually came to my rathole of a town (God Bless the Empire Theater)!

And, because noone's posted it yet:
Brian!
The babe they called Brian!
He grew!
Grew, grew and grew!
Grew up to be...
Yes, he grew up to be...
A boy called Brian!
A boy called Brian!
He had arms!
And legs!
And hands!
And feet!
This boy... whose name was Brian!
[I'm forgetting something here, I just know it]
And his face became spotty!
Yes, his face became spotty!
And his voice dropped down low...
And things started to grow...
On young Brian and show...
He was certainly no...
No girl named Brian!
Not a girl named Brian!
And he started to shave...
And have on off the wrist...
And want to see girls...
And go out and get pissed!
This man called Brian!
This man called Brian!
This man called... Briaaaaaaaa-
(shotgun blast)
Aah!
