Hi, Mr. God here,
I am going to talk about Monty Pythons impact on society. Even though it is not very well known, Monty Python and the Holy Grail had a lot of impact on "Saturday Night live," "The Simpsons," and "South Park."It has influenced many comedic writers, movies and shows to do similar things related to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. When you think about it, movies like "Airplane" were influenced by it by having ridiculous, unthinkable, random comedy with little to no main point directed toward one broad setting. Monty Python and the Holy Grail has ridiculous, unthinkable, random comedy set in the Middle Ages, while Airplane has ridiculous, unthinkable, random comedy set in an airplane. The Monty Python crew created a knew genre of random unpredictable comedy.

Neat connection to Airplane!
ReplyDeleteI think both films draw a similar fan base, though that's just based on my anecdotal observations.
