Our community season continues with one of the funniest movies of all time and our first newly minted Top 100, Monty Python and The Holy Grail. A gleeful skewering of the filmmaking process by first time filmmakers, The Holy Grail crams in a musical number, an animated god, and a record scratch of an ending that breaks the fourth wall in the same way Blazing Saddles did. Clint, Cal and Alex discuss the movie being impossible to turn off, its place as a foundational post-modernist comedy, and how budget constraints changed the ending and invented the term “cop-out”. Who made the mistake of not including this brilliant comedy on their list?
Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm is still trying to determine how to count to three before throwing the holy hand-grenade into the list.
