RUN AWAY!
When danger reared its ugly head, Brave Sir Robin turned his tail and fled
Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about and gallantly he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!
“In the frozen land of Nador, they were forced to eat Sir Robin’s minstrels… and there was much rejoicing.”
actually, make that a saving throw against death.
Count to what to throw the holy hand grenade?
And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, ‘O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.’ And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chulapas…
And the Lord spake, saying, '‘First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.’
Is brother Maynard still with the party? No? Shame.
Fun fact, the chants in that movie are the same words, just different chant tones.
“Merciful Lord Jesus, grant them rest”
When the monks are smacking themselves in the face, it’s a very mournful tone (fitting, since these words come from the Requiem, or funeral mass).
Monks: “Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem” *smack* “Pie Jesu Domine” *smack* “Dona eis requiem” *smack* (repeat
And when the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch is being brought forth, it’s a call and response chant with a much more triumphant tone (which doesn’t fit the words, but is comical):
Call: “Pie Jesu Domine:”
Response: “Dona eis requiem!”
(Repeat)
Could someone please explain?? Thank you in advance!
In the cave of Caerbannog, death awaits you, with nasty big pointy teeth! See Monty Python and the Holy Grail for further details.
So I finally watched this movie and I can’t believe how much fun I had! Is there any similar modern British tv shows or films I could watch??
