10. ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ Just Isn’t That Funny

The Knights who say Ni are dumb. The man-eating bunny isn’t funny. The black knight is a moron. Camelot is uninspired. In perhaps the entire span of Monty Python and the Holy Grail, there’s one bit that actually elicits an honest chuckle forty years later – an inane conversation about how much weight a European swallow (as opposed to an African swallow) can carry. Beyond that one, random interaction the rest of the movie kind of idles forward until the credits mercifully roll. Try to convince an Anglophile that Monty Python’s crusade throughout the medieval world isn’t good though, and you might get cut.
