@oldstoneface7047 5 лет назад

Funny and beautiful that Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life is used so frequently that way. I guess it's natural for the positive message and it's huge popularity. Though personally I'd choose another brilliant Eric Idle composition; "That's Death", which he wrote for the game Discworld II. Check it out if you haven't heard it. Very apt for a funeral, Death himself listing all the positives of being dead.

@itwasagoodideaatthetime7980 5 лет назад

I've always thought that the humor in the late great Terry Pratchett's books (& by default the games) had a very Pythonesque quality to it.

There's a whole category on Wikipedia of "Films based on musicals based on films": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Films_based_on_musicals_based_on_films I guess it makes sense if you look at it from the musical point of view. "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" didn't have that many songs in it, and certainly wasn't narrated by the means of songs as musicals do. So there is a raison d'être for this kind of film, if you like songs/musicals. :-)
