Strange how these days every country (xept north korea) is into peace making
yet we can laugh at a man being cut open by savages and have his abdomen cut to peices and have his organs removed while he screams and writhes in agony o_O,
One of the greatest Monty Python scenes of all time, right up there with Mr. Creosote. I remember people walking out during both of these scenes when the movie first aired in the theaters.
I can only imagine this in surround sound, or in theaters.... especially when he starts screaming... oh god, it must have been ghastly.... but bloody hilarious.
gah, every time I hear about someone needing a liver transplant, I think of this video and I want to laugh. Monty Python, you've damaged my sensitivity!
u must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste to be saved
Please someone else please tell me they recognized the photograph of Haile Selassie I in the beginning of the bit and noticed the donors dreadlocks and added 2 and 2 together to realized the Python fellas knew a thing or two.
I would be interested to know who wrote this sketch. I can't make up my mind whether it was Cleese and Chapman or perhaps a Terry Gilliam cartoon idea?
The song, however, is undeniably brilliant, and almost redeems the bit that didn't work before it. This film goes back and forth from brilliant to lame to brilliant again. Glad they stopped before they made a 100% lame film.
I like the sketch. No, not subtle, but enjoyable, and of course the song, awesome. In general, I think the film is better than people give it credit for. And death at dinner is quite great. The biggest problem with the film was identified by the Pythons themselves. It's a bit underdeveloped, but love it nonetheless.
This segment actually sums up the film perfectly. The first sketch is an indication that the creative bubble is beginning to wear thin, resorting to shock tactics that, in its execution, comes off as more disturbing than funny (to me). A lot of comics who are going off a bit do this, it's a fairly common trend.
Couldn't agree more. In fact at the time of its release in an interview, Terry Jones said they were actually ashamed of a lot of what they did on the film and that they had filmed some sequences which they had expected to be cut.
However Universal refused and released the film unedited.
Like quite a few of their other sketches in the film the idea is a funny one but beyond the point where it becomes clear what the joke is, the rest is gratuitous.
Salad Days and the Black Knight sequence in Holy Grail are violent and bloody, but you know that the violence is purely cartoon from the characters' reactions.
Here we have two thugs essentially breaking into a person's house and disembowelling them. There is nothing remotely hilarious, comic etc. in the execution. It is totally inhuman and brutal.
Right on. I love Monty Python. They were (are) comedic geniuses with few equals, but in this instance, they simply went too far. I'm all for outrageousness if it has a point, but this is simply sick for sick's sake, which not only isn't funny, but can lead to some pretty backward artistic territory, as the comment on here about "socialized medicine" and "Obamacare" illustrate.
"But other sequences really do go right over the top into totally yucky juvenile humour, like a load of little boys trying to shock and just being boring." A review from the time of its release.
The idea here IS funny but the way its done isn't. It would have made a great quickie. As it stands it remains the only track on the CD I skip.
Thanks for that. I knew that John Cleese wasn't entirely impressed with the film afterwards, even though he was the one who refused the final re-write that everyone else wanted.
The organ transplant scene doesn't work for me because the comedy is in the background and the horror is in the foreground, which is back-to-front when it comes to gore humour. Background comedy, foreground straightness can work of course, but not with this subject matter.
I think if they had simply slammed the door on the actual disembowelling and lame dialogue and just cut to the next sketch, it would have been a great one line quickie.
I think Chris Morris "Jam" is far more interesting and sophisticated in the use of horror in comedy. Because it plays with the audience rather than simply going for the throat as this sketch does.
I really disagree. The shocking horror and violence of that scene is really necessary to get the Galaxy Song to hit home. You have to juxtapose this over the top moment of injustice and violence with this profound and humbling expression of the universe. It made this the second greatest segment of the film.
But you don't need to show the horror, suggestion is far more powerful. I get the impression that this is a scene they were hoping would be cut but wasn't.
It adds little to the song which stands on its own.
Has anyone relised that we are currently all travelling at the speed of light Einstein's theory of relativity two objects travelling alongside one another at the speed of light would appear motionless.If you suddenly stopped I wouldn't even have time to wish you.....................................
two objects travelling alongside each other at ANY speed that is the same appear motionless. We indeed are traveling but not on lightspeed. Only light travels on lightspeed
Actually, we're all traveling at the speed of light through both space and time. When you increase your speed in the spacial dimension, you decrease your speed in the time dimension, as given by the formula To=T/ Root(1-v^2/C^2), where To is the proper time, T is the dilated time, V is the velocity in the spacial dimensions, and C is the speed of light. So in a sense, it is correct to say that we are traveling at the speed of light, but not in the typical spacial sense. Think planet of the apes
Actually we are travelling through TIME at the speed of light, not space. Even our passage through time is slightly slowed due to astronomical motion.
Basically what I just said..? It's a combination of the two. Yes, it is usually moving through time more than space due to the tendency of most objects to not move close to the speed of light relative to each other, but if one increases when the other increases, isn't it fair to say it's a combination of the two in which we're moving? And remember, how fast we're moving through time is only relative to other objects.
It would have been better as a quicky. Just have the guy being forced onto the table and have the door closed on it. Then cut to next scene. The rest is just simply gratuitously nasty.
Wouldn't this concept have been a lot funnier if the theme of the sketch had been quickie abortions and they had been slicing open a screaming woman while her husband was making polite conversation, you idiot PMS-laden sicko liberal bastards??
PMSL, that would be too funny! Isn't it ironic that the 'pro-life' movement would probably end lives by firebombing any theatre that dared to show it...
In history class we were watching a film about mummification and it showed them taking out the organs from the body, and everyone in my class was cringing at how nasty it was, but I was laughing so hard because it reminded me of this.
Love this scene from the movie, esp. the picture of Haile Selassi hanging in the hall at the beginning. Can't believe all the dialogue this video generated.
*sigh* You would never know how long i stand in front of my fridge... openening and closing the door... trying to coax a white haired man in a pink suit to come out... all those days wasted... all for nothing...
Lol monster. It's good to know I'm not the only one who does that. Maybe we need to spend a bit of money & get one of those fancy retro styled fridges?

It's okay. I guess I am a kid in a way. How old are you? I can understand the whole ticked off thing. I kinda take things out on other random people when I get mad, also. Lol.
Yeah, I can be pretty stupid sometimes with these comments. Lol. I have a wild imagination sometimes.
I still don't like irrelevant comments on my vids but I way over-reacted to yours, I just had other issues going on that particular day. Glad there's no hard feelings :)
Why the hell do people think Meaning of Life is inferior to Brian or Holy Grail? Let's see: Birth sketch, Every Sperm is Sacred, Sex Ed, Find the fish, Organ Donation with The Galaxy Song to boot, Mr. Creosote... I mean come on...

It is disgusting. But remember it was made in the nihilist early 70'ties. It is understandable that the artists should interpret their world like this. Besides, it is not sick. It actually resembles a dystopia.
Let me guess... a student right..? You could learn from the pythons - at least 3 of them studied at Oxford or Cambridge, one is a qualified medical practicioner - but they studied in the days when universities taught knowledge, as opposed to teaching politically correct opinions.
I do not know about that; I just mentally create a role for that guy (as we do not really know much about) as a bastardly rapist, and believe me, hearing the screams of a sinner getting his deserved reward is a sweet reward to me (keep in mind that it is but an example).
And yes; I may be a sick, evil and murderous fiend, but at least I have a point: Rapist guys who tries and force girls to 'engagement' would deserve this in RL.
Monty Python isn't a person, it's the team's collective name. As for the "sick bastard" that's your [minority] opinion which you're perfectly entitled to.

What a ghastly transplantation...exactly what perverts all over the world should suffer from! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
I LOVE BEING EVIL!!!
Oh, uhmmm, aside from my outburst, it is a pretty funny clip, and to calm the nerves of people out there who thinks me to a sadistic manic, I am not truly, at least not towards girls; I love them as I love life, but not on the 'physical' level.
(To eventual pervs; I will decorate my Deviant Hearts profile with your bones!)
Yeah, I'm not a fan of horror stuff myself - just checked the rating when it came out: USA: R. I can stand humans gutting orcs, but people really against each other I can't stand. I've always been sensitive about it; I don't even like the part with Mr. Creosote (I hate throwing up). Still, the Pythons remain my favorite comedy troupe. The song was funny, though.
The reason that this is not disturbig, but unny, is that no- one really seems to notice that the guy is getting cut open, she even offers him a cup of Tea for his service of murdering her Husband! I love Monty Python, I hav so many of their DVDs!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Meh, it wasn't bad this second, sober time around. But jeezus man, watching this for the first time ever while drunk and stoned just didn't work very well for me. My stomach felt all uneasy and was on the verge of having my first "bad trip" ever. But I managed to pull through. Meaning of Life still sucks ass though, it's all about the Grail.
May I call you "SIR"? You are a fucking gentleman! If this was some kinda snuff movie I'd understand all the whimpering wussies, but it aint... it's blatant comedy so put your fake-ass sick bags away! Respect to the majority of viewers who've realised this already ;)
I'm 101% with you... but this isn't gory disembowelment. it's enactment... parody.. pretend.... call it what you like... IT'S NOT REAL SO GET OVER IT!
and if you've enjoyed one single horror movie, you're such a hypocrite.
Well, I'm not the biggest horror fan in the world either. But even in horror, you're *supposed* to be revulsed. I think what most people find disturbing about this is that it goes too far for comedy. I mean, compare Lancelot's charge on Swamp Castle or the killer bunny in Holy Grail. That was outlandish and preposterous enough to be hilarious. Just my opinion, I don't mean to offend. (Unlike they did with this skit.)
This is funny, but what does being small have to do with the meaning of life? Say for example that we were all enormous, in the order of size of galaxies, or bigger, we still wouldnt know the meaning of life. It doesnt matter how small, or big, we are.
That's a good point. Perhaps emphasizing the size is a bit of a backlash against the historical/religious perspective of seeing ourselves as the center of the universe (with God speaking to us and failing to account for life elsewhere, which we now presume should exist).
I had something interesting to say.. but, 500chars max.
they cant tell you the meaning of life because nobody knows the meaning of life... its just another monty python film what do you expect it just talks alot about nothing lol but it is a great film
i love monty python! i totally wanna walk up to somebodys door and just be like "hello can we have you liver?" lol! so good! just to see what they'd say!
I saw that movie in theater as a little kid. I'll always blame my parents for not letting someone keep me that night instead of dragging me to the theater, this movie scared the **** out of me.
I love the Pythons but I don't even like that sketch as an adult. One of the worst times of my childhood.

Why the Hell does Eric Idle come out of a fridge at that moment. Monty Python has random humor too. Take that Fanily Guy!

It is disgusting. But remember it was made in the nihilist early 70'ties. It is understandable that the artists should interpret their world like this. Besides, it is not sick. It actually resembles a dystopia.

Let me guess... a student right..? You could learn from the pythons - at least 3 of them studied at Oxford or Cambridge, one is a qualified medical practicioner - but they studied in the days when universities taught knowledge, as opposed to teaching politically correct opinions.

I do not know about that; I just mentally create a role for that guy (as we do not really know much about) as a bastardly rapist, and believe me, hearing the screams of a sinner getting his deserved reward is a sweet reward to me (keep in mind that it is but an example).
And yes; I may be a sick, evil and murderous fiend, but at least I have a point: Rapist guys who tries and force girls to 'engagement' would deserve this in RL.

Monty Python isn't a person, it's the team's collective name. As for the "sick bastard" that's your [minority] opinion which you're perfectly entitled to.

Oh, uhmmm, aside from my outburst, it is a pretty funny clip, and to calm the nerves of people out there who thinks me to a sadistic manic, I am not truly, at least not towards girls; I love them as I love life, but not on the 'physical' level.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of horror stuff myself - just checked the rating when it came out: USA: R. I can stand humans gutting orcs, but people really against each other I can't stand. I've always been sensitive about it; I don't even like the part with Mr. Creosote (I hate throwing up). Still, the Pythons remain my favorite comedy troupe. The song was funny, though.
iluvcheezitsheyhey 4 years ago 2
The reason that this is not disturbig, but unny, is that no- one really seems to notice that the guy is getting cut open, she even offers him a cup of Tea for his service of murdering her Husband! I love Monty Python, I hav so many of their DVDs!

Meh, it wasn't bad this second, sober time around. But jeezus man, watching this for the first time ever while drunk and stoned just didn't work very well for me. My stomach felt all uneasy and was on the verge of having my first "bad trip" ever. But I managed to pull through. Meaning of Life still sucks ass though, it's all about the Grail.

I'm 101% with you... but this isn't gory disembowelment. it's enactment... parody.. pretend.... call it what you like... IT'S NOT REAL SO GET OVER IT!
and if you've enjoyed one single horror movie, you're such a hypocrite.
pjvenner 4 years ago
Well, I'm not the biggest horror fan in the world either. But even in horror, you're *supposed* to be revulsed. I think what most people find disturbing about this is that it goes too far for comedy. I mean, compare Lancelot's charge on Swamp Castle or the killer bunny in Holy Grail. That was outlandish and preposterous enough to be hilarious. Just my opinion, I don't mean to offend. (Unlike they did with this skit.)

This is funny, but what does being small have to do with the meaning of life? Say for example that we were all enormous, in the order of size of galaxies, or bigger, we still wouldnt know the meaning of life. It doesnt matter how small, or big, we are.
fredschick1 4 years ago
I think they meant small in a non literal sense. Small as in unimportant and insignificant.
...although come to think of it your point would still be very valid.
graaar 4 years ago
That's a good point. Perhaps emphasizing the size is a bit of a backlash against the historical/religious perspective of seeing ourselves as the center of the universe (with God speaking to us and failing to account for life elsewhere, which we now presume should exist).

I saw that movie in theater as a little kid. I'll always blame my parents for not letting someone keep me that night instead of dragging me to the theater, this movie scared the **** out of me.
I love the Pythons but I don't even like that sketch as an adult. One of the worst times of my childhood.
