How did we not make a thread about this before???
I'm sure you've all at least heard of this, even if you haven't seen it. DOn't get me wrong, "Merlin" has my undying devotion as far as Arthurian films go, but Holy Grail is just such a classic.
What are everyone's favourite parts, pray tell? I'm rather fond of Dennis the Peasant, Sir Robin's song, and the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. But all of it's pretty great.

I had lots of laughs on this one, although I must say I shall never look at the "brave little king" part the way I probably should... *does not snicker about it, no...*
But that's what shall forever remain imprinted in my memory, that's for sure. *nodnod*

I hate to invoke Mab's Law (all threads on a Merlin fansite will eventually turn into a Mab thread) on only the fourth post, but the only question that came to my mind seeing this thread was "what would Mab's relationship be to Monty Python and the Holy Grail be if she was in some way connected to the movie."
1. Shrubbers are probably followers of the Old Ways 2. I could see the killer rabbit as a pet Mab might keep in her kingdom.

At the time you were creating this thread, I was watching the movie. Now that is spooky.
I love Dennis, but the Black Knight is great, and my particular favorite has to be the Swamp Castle bit, and the great quotes.

Yes this is by far one of my favorite films and yes I can't see why it took us this long either. My favorite parts are lets see, the Knights who say Ni as well as the Knights of the Round table song. I doubt I could keep a straight face if my life depended on it during that song. I always crack up laughing. ;D

Ah, of course, who could not love the Knights Who Say NI! what would Mab's relationship be to Monty Python and the Holy Grail be if she was in some way connected to the movie 1. Shrubbers are probably followers of the Old Ways 2. I could see the killer rabbit as a pet Mab might keep in her kingdom. LOL! Indeed, perhaps the cartoon creature was in fact some sort of guardian to the entrance to Mab's kingdom. Too bad the animator went and had a sudden fatal heart attack and buggered that up... Also, I guess Tim the Enchanter is the Monty Python version of Merlin, so presumably Mab would be HIS mother- I wonder if she'd be proud that she had a son who obviously was happy with having powers, or not so proud of having a son who was ... well, Tim, LOL.

And Monty Python Mab would have to be a cross between Queenie and Mab. Played by Miranda of course.
Or that's a fan fic possibility - Monty Python Mab
