Product Description

LIFE OF BRIAN: Monty Python delivers the group's sharpest and smartest satire of both religion and Hollywood's epic films. Set in 33 A.D. Judea where the exasperated Romans try to impose order, it is a time of chaos and change with no shortage of messiahs and followers willing to believe them. At it's center is Brian Cohen, born in Bethlehem in a stable next door, who, by a series of absurd circumstances is caught up in the new religion and reluctantly mistake for the promised messiah, providing ample opportunity for the entire ensemble (Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin) to shine in multiple roles as they question everyone and everything from ex-lepers, Pontius Pilate and haggling to revolutionaries, crazy prophets, religious fanaticism, Roman centurions and crucifixion, forever changing our biblical view. MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL: Once in a lifetime there comes a motion picture that changes the whole history of motion pictu

We have always been big fans of Monty Python. Their humor spares no one - nor any sect! You have to be able to turn the other cheek, and laugh along with the(ir) world!

I didn't like Monty Python back when; I do now! How do they think this stuff up? This is a great set of DVDs; I recommend it. (I bought more than one set.)

When will Monty Python movies and TV shows be available for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch? I can find nothing on the subject.

Monty Python is classic; it never goes out of style. There is nothing produced of this high caliber these days. MP is rolling-in-the-aisles funny.

I've been trying to determine which 2-disc versions are in the box for a couple of weeks now, finally found some info elsewhere on the web:

Six-disc set includes "Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Special Edition)," "Monty Python's Life of Brian (The Immaculate Edition)," and "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (Special Edition)."

I was hesitant to order it until I knew what I'd be getting, and then figured I'd post this, as I may not be the only person wondering.

Now where did I leave that shopping cart?

Box art is amazing, all three movies are packed with their respective special features disc, and you get three awesome Monty Python movies to add to your collection. I still have yet to see "The Meaning of Life", but that's really my fault. I couldn't be happier with this purchase as a Monty Python fan. If you don't own any of these movies, I recommend the buy. Totally worth it to me. ^_^

What can I say...Monty Python is so funny!! I nearly pee myself every time I watch the Life of Brian! We haven't had a chance to watch the bonus/special feature discs, but it was so good to watch all three movies on DVD -much better than the old VHS we had that it is worn out it's not even viewable anymore! They honestly don't make comedy like this anymore!

Eine wirklich gute Filmreihe. Wer Monty Python mag sollte sie sich auf jedenfall besorgen.

Leider nur 4 Sterne da der Film "Life of Brian" keine Deutsche vertonung hat. Jedoch wenn man des Englischen mächtig ist, ist dies nicht so schlimm.
