Funniest Monty Python Ever

It probably helped that, back in 1975, I was stoned at the time.

I just watched it straight, and it seemed funny then, too.

Cletis said...: From Wikipedia: "Ed Wood is a 1994 American comedy-drama biopic directed and produced by Tim Burton, and starring Johnny Depp as cult filmmaker Edward D. Wood, Jr. The film concerns the period in Wood's life when he made his best-known films as well as his relationship with actor Béla Lugosi, played by Martin Landau. Sarah Jessica Parker, Patricia Arquette, Jeffrey Jones, Lisa Marie Smith, and Bill Murray are among the supporting cast."

Joe, the scene in here where Bella Lugosi is fighting a giant squid is wonderful as well. Thanks for the laugh.; February 27, 2011 at 10:34 AM
Manifesto Joe said...: Yeah, I remember Lugosi has to toss the tentacles around on himself, since they have no motor to operate it with.; February 27, 2011 at 11:08 AM
