The first terminator didn't fare so well, but Judgement day is way more popular. Likewise, the other monty python dominated its match, but how ill life of brian compare to holy grail?

I might as well ask why tsunamis happen.

Clearly T2. It was groundbreaking back then, and it's still impressive today.

*scratches head* Why is this close? Is Life of Brian really that good? How does it compare to Holy Grail?

I'd say it rates about 3/4 of a Holy Grail.

Of course, I'd say T2 rates no better than 1.5 Matrixes, too.

IMHO, it is far superior to the Grail.

YHO is similar to MHO. I think Life of Brian is my favourite of the Python films. There's something spectacular about the final scene. I love the zoom out on the crucifixion party singing and whistling... It gives me the giggles every single time.

Anyone else have trouble understanding YHO and MHO? I tried a variety of different interpretations before I got it.

It did take some thinking to realize the Y was "Your".

Just like "The sixth sense" I'll never know because somebody spoiled it. Mad

These are almost too different for me to compare. hehe, Terminator II gave me nightmares in 3rd grade, so I'm voting for Life of Brian.

After consulting a committee of friends outside the GL, I have decided to vote for Life of Brian. T2 was excellent, but LoB is supposed to be loads funnnier than HG.

Also, it must just be mine and zK's close connection, but I understood that right away. You guys are wierd.

Actually, I asked my best friend what she thought, and she said it was better than the Holy Grail, so I went with it.

But you did influence me too, kitty. Wink

I wouldn't put LoB above HG, but it's close. Definitely better than T2 though.
