I think the Holy Grail is much more quotable/referencable, but Life of Brian is much more coherent and enjoyable to watch.

I vote Life of Brian.

don't like Life of Brian. Too nonsensical, at least HG had some sort of narrative.

He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!

No, no, you've got to haggle!

I give the edge to Holy Grail, though.

I agree... it's one of my major points of contention with my geek brethren. in college, I'd often find myself wanting to /wrists when my friends would quote MP endlessly and fall over themselves laughing.

I like a lot of british humor, but monty python... idk, I just don't find the vast majority of it to be funny.

Holy Grail ftw. However, there are tons of shorts on their actual tv show that were downright awesome. Lumberjack, Spam, Hungarian tourist, etc.

You know you have to be exact in a place like this.

Holy Grail. It got better.
