Can I suggest a History video? If You are interested it is called: "How "The Great Mafia War killed Thousands" by the Channel called: "Infographics Show".
They had a TV show called Monty Python's Flying Circus. Each episode is 30 minutes of different comedy sketches. For the uninitiated, I recommend these three sketches: Spam, Cheese Shop, Dead Parrot.
"It's a horse on a budget!" That's the most on-the-nose thing any reactor has said about that! That was literally the reason why they used the coconuts cos hiring the horses was too expensive!
Clearly, the budget was expertly spent on the French castle's livestock defense, the lone killer rabbit, and the coconut-grounded white dove-plus the overworked duck pulling double duty. Luckily there was also no room for a real cat.
Budget was also the reason it ended abruptly with the police roundup. They wanted to do an actual battle scene but the cost to keep that many extras on hand was too high.
Various fun facts about this movie: - Many of the creative decisions (i.e., the coconuts for horses) were due to a lack of funds. The film's budget was completely overwritten by their famous friends like Elton John and Keith Richards looking for a tax write-off. - Graham Chapman was the only one with actual chain mail armor. Everyone else was wearing knitted garments painted silver. - Most of the castles are just the same castle in Scotland, filmed from different angles. - The ending is a play on the term "cop-out." On their TV show, if they couldn't come up with an ending for a skit, they'd just have someone come in in a police uniform and tell them to stop. The original ending was supposed to be Arthur and his Knights finding the Holy Grail in a Woolworth's department store, but they ran out of money. - Michael Palin was knighted in 2019.
Biss, if you ever want to try Monty Python again, their film "Life of Brian" (1979) is considered one of the greatest comedies ever. It's the hilarious story of Brian Cohen of Jerusalem, who gets mistaken for the Messiah in ancient Judea. 😆 The film is a great satire of politics, the Romans, terrorists groups, cult followings, and people in general, because they just can't stop arguing and fighting each other. GREAT COMEDY! The members of Monty Python are masters of absurdist humor. They will make fun of ANYTHING. As human beings are so crazy, absurd and silly, they will do many crazy and absurd things!
Fantastic reaction, Bisscute, especially: 1. Naming the "budget horse". Perfect. They had a budget of one hundred thousand pounds for the entire film, so knew they couldn't afford actual horses. They couldn't ride, anyway. 2. Lancelot The Bloody. Lancelot The Wedding-Destroyer. You rock. 3. You can summon fireballs like Tim the Enchanter! Awesome!!!! 4. And the best wink at the camera since Marilyn Monroe. You are now offically the Best Reactor on RUclips. And you're not even nuclear. Cheers.
It was done on a budget, most of the castle scenes were done in one castle, Doune Castle, and horses were too expensive, so they used coconuts instead. It cost next to nothing to make, but it was a huge hit.
The Vogue Theater in Louisville Kentucky showed Holy Grail several times a year for decades, which got them a lot of repeat business and new patrons as we dragged our friends to see it each time. Once I was reading the description in the theater's monthly schedule, and the last line was: "(The capital of Assyria is Nineveh.)"
This group of comedians, known as Monty Python, are graduates of Oxford and Cambridge Universities. It may not look it but this was highbrow humor in the lowest brow form. They had a very successful skit show with the BBC back in the late '70s early '80s. It was called Monty Python's flying circus. It was home to such famous skits such as, the dead parrot, the Spanish Inquisition, lumberjack song, and a whole lot more.
I knew this would be fun as soon as the notification popped up. I was right. Also, you know the difference between a morning star and a mace. And I agree, everyone needs a Bisscute in their life.
Biss was reacting to Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and there was much rejoicing! I am a coward, but I would face that peril any day! Thanks for your reaction to this classic, Biss! I was so excited to see that you were reacting to this movie! Awesome!
I was very surprised she actually liked this. However she has on occasion, demonstrated, she in fact does have the sense of humor of a 12 year old boy!
One of my favorite movies. Interesting facts, they used coconuts because they couldn’t afford horses. It was made in 1975. The movie was funded by bands like Led Zeppelin and Genesis. All the chainmail was actually woven wool, it was damp and the wool was wet and heavy, they were miserable. Also, a newt is a small amphibious lizard. 🦎 A shrubbery is a small bush. Tim the Enchanter was suppose to have a really long weird name but John Cleese could remember it, so he said Tim, they left it in the movie. I hope you do The Life of Brian next!!! Great job Biss!!
Interesting fact, every time a RUclipsr posts a "...reacts to Holy Grail" video someone comes into the comments to point out that Tim's name wasn't originally Tim but John Cleese couldn't remember the name during that take, even though that's not true. Tim's name was Tim in the script.
"Monty Python's Flying Circus" was a comedy TV show in Britain from 1969-74. The six names you didn't recognize wrote and performed everything, and after the show ended they made three movies starting with this one. I think it's definitely the best, but some will tell you the second, The Life of Brian, was. One member, John Cleese, later wrote A Fish Called Wanda, a great comedy.
I fall in the group that prefere Brian over the Grail, on the whole. There are however sequences and details in the Grail that... well... are unsurpased as bits. What kind of swallow? Ni!
Also it is worth mentioning that while Monty Python's combination of cerebral and silly humor was not hugely successful in its own time, they had an incredible influence on future comedians. It's not a coincidence it seemed a little like Hot Fuzz.
monty python were masters of the "running gag". things like the swallows carrying coconuts, the cats being beaten,saying 5 instead of 3, being dead (but not really dead) get funnier each time they recur. i loved it when you said, "i'd like to have someone behind me singing things that i do". really fun reaction.
You're right. Finding the perfect thing is considered a "Holy Grail". If a castle in the middle of nowhere, full of beautiful young nymphomaniacs isn't a Holy Grail, I never saw one. I wonder if that was the double meaning behind the grail beacon?
The ending is funny because there's a saying to "cop out" of something which means to avoid your responsibilities, so the ending with the cop stopping the filming is a LITERAL "cop out", lol.
@@betsyduane3461 ... Carol Cleveland was certainly a member of Monty Python. She appeared in 30 of the 45 episodes in the TV series and in all four Monty Python movies. Cleveland and Neil Innes were presented as Associate Pythons at the official Monty Python 25th-anniversary celebrations held in Los Angeles in July 1994
This movie only makes sense if you think about it like a bunch of friends LARPing as King Arthur and his knights and the movie being about that, rather than being about King Arthur.
Monty Python are British Comedy royalty. Holy Grail is one of the most quoted movies of all time. Life of Brian is considered their best movie. It was funded by George Harrison from The Beatles. There is also a TV comedy skit show. This is why their movies sometimes feel like a bunch of comedy skits put together. This is most apparent in their movie The Meaning of Life. It is my favourite of their movies. John Clesse made one of my fav TV shows Fawlty Towers and my fav comedy movie A Fish Called Wanda. A Fish Called Wanda is a must react. It is a mix of British and American actors.
Great reaction Biss this movie is epic. The Black Knight sequence is exactly what it feels like to argue on the internet. Weird historical references with the french scene: dead livestock as ammunition was done to spread disease, but the live animals is a joke. 'Your mother was a hamster' - Hamsters have a lot of children, basically calling her a slut. 'Your father smelt of elderberries' - Elderberries make wine, calling him a drunk. Keep up the good work.
Hello Miss Biss!😊You did notice that one of the main actors was also one of the three headed knights. The main cast actually played many of the other parts in the film, including the Frenchman at the castle. Great reactions to this classic comedy that was ahead of its time, MB!!!!🎬👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just watched your reaction to a Queen song on your other channel, so I wanted to heartily recommend the movie Bohemian Rhapsody (2018), about the formation of the band Queen, the early days, rise to success, etc. Fantastic movie, with all around great performances, and obviously some amazing music and songs! 🥰
The key to Monty Python is that the six of them (who portray the majority of characters) are all very intelligent, very well educated, but the main goal of their comedy was to be silly. Really enjoyed your reaction!
The black knight scene will always be my favorite part. Marvel Strike Force has a Black Knight character and the names of his attacks are basically quotes from this movie.
A "shrubbery" is a bush. A low plant sort of thing. Often shortened to "shrub." The shot of the animator having a fatal heart attack was in a fact shot of Terry Gilliam, who was the animator for Monty Python. (He also played Patsy the original coconut guy, as well as the Bridge Guardian, among others.)
I don’t know if it’s lost in translation but Biss is equally the smartest reactor I’ve watched and also the most childlike. This isn’t a slight. We love it.
" 'Ere. 'E says 'e's not dead." A perfect example of postwar British comedy writing, the surreal irony of Spike Milligan that has been part of the fabric of British comedy ever since.
I've seen this many times, but you had me rolling through this presentation 😅. Your comments are witty and spot on. If you would consider it, another oldie that paved the way for all college comedies "Animal House" thanks again!
Britts making fun of themselves is priceless and timeless. My French relatives start quoting lines from the French knight whenever I get together with them.
I first saw this film in Paris in 1978. Half the audience was French and half English-speaking so when the “French” soldier said “Fechez-la vache” the French people were completely puzzled. The rest of us burst out laughing.
😎👍 If it's of interest, the animator who had a heart attack (Terry Gilliam) is the same guy who's banging the coconuts together at the beginning of the film. 😜
One of the better reactions. Good to see you laughing. Red is your color. Newt is like a salamander. Shrubbery, is just a small hedge. Thanks for the laughs!
Your english is really outstanding. I've been subscribed for awhile and your knowledge of popular culture and all kinds of synonyms is impressive. As a non native english speaker I hope you're proud of the dedication you've put into mastering the language
You did amazingly well understanding so much, given that yes there is a lot which is even difficult for some native English speakers to catch (especially Americans), at least on the first viewing. There's a lot of depth to the jokes, but it can also be watched and enjoyed at the surface level just for the silliness. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I saw this in the theater when it first came out, i liked probably 20% of it. My friend, who was a big Monty Python fan, was laughing his head off and afterward said I had no sense of humor. I said I had a great sense of humor, but if this was an example of British humor, then I didn't care for British humor. I've come to like it more over time. Monty Python had such a big influence on comedy that comedy has shifted over the years and decades to align more with their style, yet they remain unique. Many have suggested that you watch The Life of Brian, which is their second movie, but I like their third movie best: The Meaning of Life. I've watched it innumerable times, and look forward to another reaction video of it.
11:22 Hello! Fun fact: 2 legendary rock bands of the time helped fund the making of this movie. Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. One of my all-time favorite movies. I love that each actor plays several characters. Life of Brian is another good one.
"In the name of King Arthur, like and subscribe!" Awesome. I'm already subscribed, and I for sure liked this video. You may not have caught ALL of the jokes, but that's the thing about this film: it's so re-watchable, because there is so much to see, and new jokes, puns, visual gags, to find every time. Loved your reaction! Love "Hot Fuzz" and "Snatch" as well; they're both other great British humor. Pretty much all British humor since the 1970s owes quite a lot to what Monty Python did. (of course, they had their earlier influences, as well..)
What makes Monty Python comedy work so well is that it is the completely "irrelevant injection" (comments from the backseats) comments that come out of nowhere, and yet at the same time actually fit the character being portrayed, while adding a dash of "visual humor" that distracts you just enough to lose track of the dialog, only to have the characters KNOW that you just got distracted by the visuals going on and takes the interaction into a new direction. Because of this the audience sometimes find it "too distracting" and not funny, but those who GET it and understand the comedy STRUCTURE find it a complete laugh-riot. And while it CAN be a little "hit/miss" overall ... when it hits, it hits HARD and even when it misses, it isn't annoying...just indifferent.

Newts are amphibians that start off as tadpoles like a frog, but grow into something that looks like a tiny wet dinosaur.
It's also an old euphemism for impotence.
Also the name of the Former Speaker of the US House of Representatives. The two are very similar and one might confuse them with the other.
Also most newts are actually named rebecca.

thank you, glad you enjoyed the reaction
SIGH.....My life is now complete. Biss has experienced Monty Python..... 😆😆😆
haha, tthanks for watching
Britts making fun of themselves is priceless and timeless. My French relatives start quoting lines from the French knight whenever I get together with them.
I first saw this film in Paris in 1978. Half the audience was French and half English-speaking so when the “French” soldier said “Fechez-la vache” the French people were completely puzzled. The rest of us burst out laughing.
@@jimglenn6972 I believe the phrase used is "Cherchez la vache", which means "look for the cow".
@ Yes, I speak French but they are saying “fetchez-la vache” where the verb is English. The French people couldn’t understand it.
@@jimglenn6972 You are correct about the phrase used. I'm going to spend the rest of the day watching "misheard lyrics".
And so begins Biss' descent into the insane world of Monty Python. Never again will she see a coconut without thinking of the noble horses.
Hahaha
😎👍 If it's of interest, the animator who had a heart attack (Terry Gilliam) is the same guy who's banging the coconuts together at the beginning of the film. 😜
Oh interesting
One of the better reactions. Good to see you laughing. Red is your color. Newt is like a salamander. Shrubbery, is just a small hedge. Thanks for the laughs!
Your english is really outstanding. I've been subscribed for awhile and your knowledge of popular culture and all kinds of synonyms is impressive. As a non native english speaker I hope you're proud of the dedication you've put into mastering the language
Well done that's all I have to say well done 👏👏
You did amazingly well understanding so much, given that yes there is a lot which is even difficult for some native English speakers to catch (especially Americans), at least on the first viewing. There's a lot of depth to the jokes, but it can also be watched and enjoyed at the surface level just for the silliness. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you
"Who needs eyes anyway" is the appropriate reaction to the beginning of this film. When it comes to Pythonesque silly, just roll with the flashes.
Thanks for watching
It’s fun watching Biss when she is in a silly mood. Also very singy in this one and a laughing and singing Bisscute is lots of fun. Thanks Biss.
I saw this in the theater when it first came out, i liked probably 20% of it. My friend, who was a big Monty Python fan, was laughing his head off and afterward said I had no sense of humor. I said I had a great sense of humor, but if this was an example of British humor, then I didn't care for British humor. I've come to like it more over time. Monty Python had such a big influence on comedy that comedy has shifted over the years and decades to align more with their style, yet they remain unique. Many have suggested that you watch The Life of Brian, which is their second movie, but I like their third movie best: The Meaning of Life. I've watched it innumerable times, and look forward to another reaction video of it.
Good reaction! This was a very funny movie Keep-up the good work, pretty woman from Romania. 👍👸
Thank you! Will do!
Of all the Python movies, this one is the most influential on my sense of humor
Thanks for watching
That facial express when she said "1975," indicating how OLD that seems, when I was born in '74...😳
Love watching your reactions.
Glad you did
11:22 Hello! Fun fact: 2 legendary rock bands of the time helped fund the making of this movie. Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. One of my all-time favorite movies. I love that each actor plays several characters. Life of Brian is another good one.
"In the name of King Arthur, like and subscribe!" Awesome. I'm already subscribed, and I for sure liked this video. You may not have caught ALL of the jokes, but that's the thing about this film: it's so re-watchable, because there is so much to see, and new jokes, puns, visual gags, to find every time. Loved your reaction!
Love "Hot Fuzz" and "Snatch" as well; they're both other great British humor. Pretty much all British humor since the 1970s owes quite a lot to what Monty Python did. (of course, they had their earlier influences, as well..)
What makes Monty Python comedy work so well is that it is the completely "irrelevant injection" (comments from the backseats) comments that come out of nowhere, and yet at the same time actually fit the character being portrayed, while adding a dash of "visual humor" that distracts you just enough to lose track of the dialog, only to have the characters KNOW that you just got distracted by the visuals going on and takes the interaction into a new direction.
Because of this the audience sometimes find it "too distracting" and not funny, but those who GET it and understand the comedy STRUCTURE find it a complete laugh-riot. And while it CAN be a little "hit/miss" overall ... when it hits, it hits HARD and even when it misses, it isn't annoying...just indifferent.
