Monty Python And The Holy Grail - 6

Duck Soup - 4


This is one heck of a matchup. Duck Soup is a hilarious satire that still resonates to this day, and VERY popular on the college circuit, but so is its opponent, which may very well be THE single best piece of comedy writing, acting, and directing together ever to be recorded to celluloid. It's a shame the DVD of Duck Soup is out of print though. :frowning:

NOTE: BRACKETS ARE STILL OPEN

The Pythons' march is almost finished as Groucho and his bros bow out gracefully...

He turned our night into day!!!


Semifinal Round Match 2


He rode a Blazing Saddle,
He wore a shining star..."


-"Break's over, boys. Don't just lay there gettin' a suntan, ain't gonna do you no good anyhow. Now take this shovel and put it to some good use."

(grabs shovel)

-"Don't do it, Bart!"

-"Uh-uh, baby, I have to."

-"Now send a wire to the main office and tell them that I said..."

(WHACK)

-"OW!"

-"Send wire, main office, tell them I said ow, gotcha!"

(Willie Nelson - "On The Road Again")


-"You know I had a feeling that when we parted ways, we would somehow wind up back together again. I've never seen a man get picked up by his testicles before. Luckily that cop passed by when he did. Otherwise you'd be lifting up your nuts to tie your shoes. Do you believe how happy I am I didn't kill you?"

-"Do you believe how happy I'd be if you did?"

-"Oh come on you don't mean that. Remember what I said to you about going with the flow?"

-"How am I supposed to go with the flow when the rental car agency leaves me in a 100 acre parking lot with keys to a car that isn't there then I have to hike back 3 miles to find out they don't have any more cars?"

-"I got a car no sweat at all."

-"Well Del, you're a charm."

-"Nope."

-"Oh I know. You just go with the flow."

-"Like the twigs of the rivers in a mighty long stream..."
