Hey Guys, today we are going to react to - Biggus Dickus - Monty Python's Life of Brian Keep Loving! Mailing Address - Joginder Singh Shop No. 1, Beside Aksar Bhavan, Opp. Dada Market, Begumwadi Surat, Gujarat - 395003 INDIA
@@Eyes-of-Horus I think it translates to Big Ass (Continental or Intercontinental = big/huge) or maybe something like Loose Ass (Incontinent = loose/no muscle control). Just thinking out loud.
@@ensanesane🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yeah, both work for me. Big Azz compliments Big D*ck, and Loose Azz compliments getting reamed, which just might make her Incontinent.
I love it that you guys love this. When I went to school everybody on the bus would quote this scene constantly. My favourite quote is ' i have a great friend in Rome called Bigus Dickus, he ranks as high as any'. Even the bus driver would laugh and say 'see you tomorrow bigus'. I am glad that you both liked it!
So many great scenes, one of my favourite is:- Brian gets caught writing "Romans go home" in Latin on a wall by a Roman soldier.... But the soldier points out that Brain has actually written "Roman they go the house" The soldier then gives Brian a Latin Grammar lesson! With the final schoolboy punishment for his mistake of.. "now write that out 100 times"! Absolutely brilliant!
My high school Latin teacher let us watch/read anything related to the Romans - so we watched this countless times due to that scene alone! Probably why my PhD relates to the Romans.
When the Extras were hired for this scene, they were told that if they laughed, they wouldn't be paid. So, they did their level-best not to laugh (They paid them of course in the end, but they wanted their best effort).
Glad you both like it! A true classic comedy. "I will not have my fwends widiculed by the common solderwy!" " No Wudolph the Wed Nose Weindeers" "No Th'penther Twaythies." 🤣
It wasn’t even about Jesus. Anyone who watched it would know that. I am a devout Christian and I didn’t find it blasphemous. It makes fun of human stupidity 😅
John Cleese and the guy who played the Cesar both had a bet going that they could get the extras to laugh and break character during the shoot for biggus dickus. And so he told the extra not to laugh or they wouldn’t get paid and the whole biggus dickus was just that one Actor trying to get them to break character.
These scenes are prime examples of why this is the best Monty Python film. It really plays on the rhotacism of Michael Palin's portrayal of Pontius Pilet. The extras playing the soldiers in the Biggus Dickus scene were given orders not to laugh and were told they would be sacked from the production if they did so. This resulted in their realistic reactions which is testament to the directing skills of the late great Terry Jones. Even the Pythons (Michael Palin, John Cleese & the late great Graham Chapman) were struggling to remain composed. I knew somebody with the same speech impediment as Pontius Pilet and funnily enough he was called Brian (I kid you not!).
I heard that Palin ad-libbed much of the monologue. You can see Cleese struggling to not crack. He was at Palin's mercy because he had no idea what he was going to say next.
hilarious how Pilate pronounces "R" like a "W", and Biggus Dickus speaks with a lisp. when he's talking to the guards in the room, you could tell that the actor playing Pilate was intentionally going on and on so that the extras would laugh so much
The Python's great hero, Spike Milligan got a cameo part in this film and they played a trick on him in filming. The film could not have been made without the financial support of George Harrison. If you watch the whole film you'll seen that the Pythons were 40 years ahead of their time talking about transitioning.
George Harrison also has a cameo, as Mr Pappadopoulus (who loaned them the 'Mount' for Sunday - being a very funny take on the fact that George financed the film).
@@Trev359 Medical transitioning has been around since the 1930's. The book burnings at the Hirschfield Institute by the Nazis contained studies about gender dysphroria, and medical transition. It's a myth pedalled by ignorant bigots that trans people didn't exist until a few years ago.
When Biggus Dickus (Graham Chapman) is reading out from the scroll and the centurion (John Cleese) cracks up with laughter… 🤣 I’m surprised the cast held it together anything like as well as they did, all things considered.
Yeah John Cleese plays his role quite well there. It almost looks like he didn't know which speech-impediment he would be faced with and just goes ...What?
What’s so amazing to me is that I’ve seen Americans react to this and completely miss the joke, but you guys got all of it. 😂 I still think a lot of people miss why Biggus’s wife’s name is so funny.
@@Samurai_Stoner Incontinence is a condition where you can’t control your bowels (or bladder). So… Incontinentia Buttocks is about as funny as Biggus Dickus to the guards.
@@Samurai_Stoner her husbands name is descriptive of his 'oversized manhood, this naturally makes his wife unable to control herself well, from being used to his size, from their years of marriage together, hence her name Incontinentia Buttocks, ..it could mean she brays like an Ass>Mule (from laughter, moaning at him, or during intercourse) without bladder control, or a perhaps she's a farter under the covers, or, Forgive Me Please readers, possibly really un-actractive Buttocks>Ass>+Femaile+Mule>Horse=Mare whom leaks uncontrollably as if she is stricken with incontinence. Either way, it is her first name, Incontinentia, that is the other key nugget of humor to her part in the joke-some scene.. Dang, how do so many Americans manage to exist if they cannot understand simple jokes of language interacting and plays with and upon words, and let alone suggested metaphors and suggestive side-references...? By all that is holy, even Iassi/Joshua/Jesus made word play and metaphoricals a key aspect to learn & understand, yet.. [facepalms]
Great reaction video. Lots of fun. Another classic is Blazzing Saddles. The first movie to have a fart on screen. Be prepared though. It has the ability to offend everyone. No way the movie could be made now. Told a mmuch younger buddy about it. He had 5 friends over to watch it and each one of them were dinged a couple of times. He was warned. Said it was halarious it was so over the top.
The thing I really find hilarious about the scenes is the look on the Centurion's (John Cleese) face when he hears Pilot and Biggus' speaking. He's like, "Does everyone from Rome (or as Pilate would say "Wome.") have a speech impediment?"
Lovely to see our cousins from India able to appreciate our slightly 'off the wall', British sense of humour. All those years of the British people Raj, weren't entirely wasted!
Everybody misses the running joke throughout this entire scene: Caesar's speech impediment isn't an impediment, it's a reflection of his education. Pronouncing his "r" that way indicates that he's speaking Classical Latin, which would've pronounced "v" and "r" that way; "Veni Vici Vidi" is pronounced "Wenny Weechy Weedee" in Classical. It implies that everyone else is speaking Latin Vulgaris, which would be the commoner version of the language.
Classical Latin didn't pronounce "r" as "w". In fact, the "r" was verrrry much prrronounced, as it is in modern Italian and other languages derived from Latin.
A fact about this movie is, that George Harrison (yes the one of The Beatles) financed the film. He actually put all his money including his house into this project.
English humour AT IT,S BEST , No wonder the world thinks were MAD , BUT WE KNOW WE ARE . NO wonder these Monty Python movies taught a lady in Japan to speak English .
I'm not much for reaction videos, but comedy is different. I like how he laughs at everything, she mostly just laughs at the physical humour. Thats pretty much my experience with python with my wife.
Enjoying reaction channels was a bit of a creeping surprise to me, but here I am. I really enjoy seeing film and song that I grew up with and loved, being seen and heard for the first time by good people that are cultures and continents apart from my own. I also love seeing friends apart still being able to share good times thanks to the power of the interweb as you are. 2 suggestions. Work on your vocal audio, it is too tinny and slightly annoying despite your bubbling charisma. The balance between your vocals and what you are watching is good, some channels get that very wrong and it is a very important level, so well done to you. Get better mics and turn down the treble and up the bass on the vocals. You have the potential to do well, and I hope you do. The 2nd bit of advice. Get some Black Sabbath In your life!
Nobody does schoolboy humour as good as the Pythons. I highly recommend you watch all of this movie, one of the funniest comedies ever made. Beatle George Harrison financed it and you might spot him in a crowd cameo. Other memorable scenes are the stoning scene, classic Python silliness. When this movie came out originally, some local councils in the UK tried to ban it because it satirises religion. Needless to say, it only encouraged people to see it, you can't buy publicity like that!. John Cleese appeared on British TV defending the movie against objections by church officials. A comedy show on TV at the time, Not the 9 O'clock News - a satirical sketch review of the weeks news - did a sketch about it (you should check that out too although as it was topical at the time, some of it has dated badly in 45 years).
To me, the previous Monty Python and the Holy Grail film is just as good. It is generally regarded as inferior but maybe because it was made with very little money and, as it was their first full length film, not as professional.
You do realise it was a brutal jab at the British former colonies ie what have the British ever done for us ie law,education,industrialisation,democracy and forcing the world to end slavery 😂😂😂
I am so sorry to say this, but your video would be so much better if you would simply tone down the Indian accent. Please explain to my why it is that people from the Indian Sub-Continent, never mind how long they have lived in the UK, simply cannot speak without their original accent interfering? I genuinely want to know, and that is also why we hate Indian Call-Centers... Training is required. I genuinely mean no offense, wut the problem is real. Sorry
The Vatican and the Catholic Church is a rembrandt of those times. Unfortunately it is easy to play mind tricks upon the very ignorant. Nobody is stupid, but knowledge is King. I can rule a CULT like most other religions, but I won't because I actually respect people.
