darthvalor07 when I first found this a while back on tape I watched it and really liked it, then I noticed I kept watching it because it was so interesting, its kind of addictive at first.
You know, it's probably ironic or coincidental, but I bought this movie on DVD about one or two weeks before my youngest brother was born (in 2004), and I recall watching this every chance I got up until the day he was born, and I don't even know why.
For my French final last year, we had to write an essay on L'Étranger, basically discussing the meaning of life... I couldn't get this out of my head the whole time xD
As the way of all things, what effect do you suppose its question, knowledge, understanding and application by billions of persons will have on the state of global economics, science, the humanities, education, government and business?
.
The underlying law of nature is the most important subject any person can investigate and learn about, can proceed to understand, and can then come to personally apply in life.
lol, i started to think about the meaning of life for about 2 hours but then my head started feeling funny and my heart felt weird so i stopped :D not that it has anything to do with this..
:d there was this program on last night about Monty Python and me and my dad were gluded to the tv... might watch one of the movies later (My dads name is brian!) XD
Actually, they mention the exact meaning of life, but throw it in where you might not notice it because you're distracted. Terry Gilliam has created many movies with the same message...
I know this is supposed to be a comical sort of song but it really is a catchy and funky tune and the lyrics are great. Eric Idle can also REALLY sing. He puts most of these X factor/ American Idol wannabes to shame!
yeah i mean theres something about eric idles songS that are so awesome i cant get enough of them theyre catchy and really good the first time round when u hear them but theyre so well written that they dont get boring. FIVE STARS!
I think its stupid that people say that if they have only nagative things to say they have to leave. wathefak doe you think a comment means? and my enlish is incorrect i know. im from holland.
Apparently, the meaning of life is one big acid trip.

THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION OF ALL:
.
What is the underlying law of nature.
.
As the way of all things, what effect do you suppose its question, knowledge, understanding and application by billions of persons will have on the state of global economics, science, the humanities, education, government and business?
