@SunShinesBlack "Homeward Bound" by Jack Trombey from the album "Fourteen Pictorial Sketches for Orchestra No. 2" (DeWolfe Records DW/LP 3171). There's a copy for sale on eBay UK with a sound sample, but it sounds slightly different than what's used in the movie.
Fuck the Monarchy. I feel their dirty fingers up my ass and I don't care who gets married in their useless family living off our tax dollars. Fuck them.
"...just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me..."
I going to have to remember that one, they won't know what I'm saying, but, that's half the fun.
Negativity here...... why can't we get any original comedy these days, just a bunch of giant commercials..... comedy these days has lost it's character.
@TheEgg185 must be way above it if you don't find this scene the least bit comical...why, you're precisely the kind of individual who probably doesn't even realize if he or she is or isn't being repressed.
@TheEgg185 I bet most topics in this movie were over you head. They used to lob diseased animals into a castle...not from. And if you can't get the bit about a serf bitching about an autocracy, I can't help you. Learn some history first and then you might understand it.
@DickLodge68 i think i understand what is being said. i just didnt find it comical one bit. it was like the writer was preaching to the choir (me being the choir). my attitude was like ya, i know, whats your point. maybe to a lesser intelligent person this would have been a revelation and therefore comical?
in my 36 years of anger and rik style anarchy (in that meaning ive done nowt) the ruling classes i.e money, will always piss on the small man, always have always will. get rid of money and gods and the future might stand a chance. we are a piss ant little breed on the small rock circum-venting a not to interesting star in a arm of not to interesting galaxy amongst billions, but some all seeing eye will save us. when our fire dies , to the rest of the cosmos nothing, we are nothing.
All government is the same. Government is only people providing services on a violent compulsory abusive basis. The rest of us provide our services on a non-compulsory voluntary basis in the free market. If government services are so valuable why don't these people provide them like everyone else does in the free market place without throwing you in a cage (jail) if you dont pay the "taxes"
@mustaffa1611 If you can come up with a way to provide policing, a fire department and a standing army without taxing the general poulation I would like to hear it. Whats that? Your house is on fire? 20 grand and I will be there next thursday. This is the world you want?
@ding333 Most fire departments around here are all voluntary and raise money through donations and charity events.... Those other services you mention - if they are so valuable why wouldnt people voluntarily pay for them like everything else we do like normal non-violent people in the free market? Do you really believe that some services should be compulsory and paid for by using threats and/or use of force?
@mustaffa1611 Ok so if a war starts we have a whip round to raise the money do we? If a tax is seen as unfair by the majority of people then it is removed but those that are fair must be enforced to make sure that everyone pays an equal share for their share of the public services. And as a matter of fact I do belive that having police should be compulsory. As should road mantinence and a fire department and any other service a modern society should not be without.
I muse if this is some cryptic reply of Monty Python to that annoying stupidity this American coxcomb Mark Twain did write “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court” in which an American coxcomb is transferred back to the age of King Arthur and does style himself as some sort of spiritual leader, combating what the dull-brained American think to be the European Middle Ages; because the fool here is not Arthur but the peasant boring the audience with usual stupid left-wing phrases.
I like that the "autonomous collective", the group that is free to rule themselves, gather filth from the ground for a living - a great comment on the fallacy of Utopian ideals.
All you idiots thinking this has anything to do with a government involving monarchy are just that, this is just a parody, nothing more. Words like Life Liberty Happiness and We the people really mean nothing all people are, for lack of a better word are idiots and will elect idiots to represent them in government and will continually do so, a modern monarch is superior in every way to a politician just appreciate the video for it being funny don't make a damn political statement, thankyou!
Oh, King, eh? Oh, very nice... And how'd you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers! By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society! If there's ever gonna be any progress in our society... We're livin' in a dictatorship! A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes... We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to sort of act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
@bronxcouture If you can't even determine when and how to properly use a semi-colon, I don't think you're in much position to determine who is and is not fit to continue living.
This is such a solid scene, history of democracy in 3 minutes. Why they didn't mention the brilliant thinker Noam Chomsky, big fan of Anacho-Syndicalism, me too.
@QuatFax I think it was intentionally ironic for the peasant to look a "buffoon." The Pythons clearly wanted to make a statement by having the filth-gathering peasant be an expert on forms of government. The working class political thinker here clearly show the ignorance of the few lords who wielded power over the masses. The film does in itself poke fun at the Arthurian Legends, this being just a sample of their tasteful distaste.

The thing about this satire is that I never find it laugh out loud worthy, and I never really understand it for about a minute or two, but I still find it funny but its annoying because I dont know whether to laugh or do nothing
Well, it had to be said. And it's a pretty short list of movies that will bring this topic up ... and fewer that can put it into general circulation with a classic comic meme..
Very funny and very accurate. The ruling classes never like you to talk about their reasons for "authority" in a rational manner because it highlights how insane the idea is. "Divine Right of Kings"? What's all that about then? Seems a bit vague if you ask me. I mean, surely that would require some proof, like maybe a contract and not the utterance of verbal clap-trap backed up by thugs in uniforms who will imprison anyone that doesn't hand over their money when it is demanded of by rich people

Now we know why the kings of old just lobbed off the heads of mouthy peasants, it was so much easier and more satisfying.

The thing about this satire is that I never find it laugh out loud worthy, and I never really understand it for about a minute or two, but I still find it funny but its annoying because I dont know whether to laugh or do nothing

Well, it had to be said. And it's a pretty short list of movies that will bring this topic up ... and fewer that can put it into general circulation with a classic comic meme..

Very funny and very accurate. The ruling classes never like you to talk about their reasons for "authority" in a rational manner because it highlights how insane the idea is. "Divine Right of Kings"? What's all that about then? Seems a bit vague if you ask me. I mean, surely that would require some proof, like maybe a contract and not the utterance of verbal clap-trap backed up by thugs in uniforms who will imprison anyone that doesn't hand over their money when it is demanded of by rich people
