Life of Brian U.K. BD review

[simcal]

thought I got luck I was in frys in san diego and they had it out on the shelf.
picked it up and a few other movies and when I got to the counter they could not ring it up as it was not in the computer.
manager came over and he knew it was not meant to be out on the shelf yet and explained why they could not sell it to me and then sent someone off to pull the other 20 copies they had

Very true, I am shocked how good this looks glad I double dipped, this film always makes me laugh.

I'd argue that the scene between Michael Palin and the guards ("What's so funny about 'Biggus Dickus'?") may be the longest and most out-of-breath I've ever laughed in a theater...

It's such a great movie and has an awesome transfer ! PQ is OUTSTANDING ! I even thought the AQ was pretty good for that age of a movie. Now, I need The Holy Grail and Meaning Of Life on Blu then my life will be perfectly Pythonized! !

Even the Pythons themselves disowned "Meaning of Life"--
As John Cleese complained, everyone was "just working on their own bits", without any thematic interaction, and it does have that certain Abbey Road post-breakup sloppiness to it.

(But c'mon, Sony, you put Holy Grail out a half-dozen times when it was on SD!...)
