Does the guy running behind Graham Chapham in the Holy Grail knocking two coconut halves together to mimic a horse count?
- WalterBright 7y agoThat's not a pratfall. And yeah, it's funny :-) But the funniest is the crazy logic where they're trying to determine a scientific procedure to unmask a witch. "She turned me into a newt! .... .... uh, I got better."
- nkrisc 7y ago"If she weighs the same as a duck... She's made of wood..." "And therefore?" "............A witch!"
- WalterBright 7y ago> And yeah, it's funny Part of the reason it's funny is the resolute failure of King Arthur to understand that he's not actually riding a horse. Or maybe I shouldn't try to analyze what funny is.
- samplatt 7y agoHis name is Patsy, as stated by Graham Chapman with "[...] and this is my trusty servant, Patsy." noun: patsy; plural noun: patsies a person who is easily taken advantage of, especially by being cheated or blamed for something. So, there's that as well.
- Iv 7y agoYeah, Terry Gilliam is a funny guy.
