Hardly “the land of the free”, though I do sometimes get discounts and rebates. 😉 I’m from Vancouver, Canada where our national currencies are the Loonie and the even wackier Canadian Tire money. “I’d buy that for a dollar,” too bad the Canadian dollar won’t get you much (that’s why we supplement it with Canadian Tire money (Canadian Tire is a large hardware store that gives you 10 cent vouchers with every purchase). At this board I mostly reside in The Village (Prisoner forum) where nothing is free either: “I am not a number, I am a free man” Ha, ha, ha indeed. But I [b]very[/b] sillily digress…. 😳 😉 “Camelot, it is a silly place…”

Not only am I brave enough to watch Monty Python and the Holy Grail, I’ve been Brave Sir Robin brave enough to watch it many times, which would really make me a total coward, I know… 😆 I’m a huge Python fan, from the series to all the movies. I’ve probably seen The Meaning of Life more than any other (a personal fave), but Life of Brian and Holy Grail; great stuff. Also I love the Python people in almost anything — always a plus. And Terry Gilliam (the animator from Python) is a favourite director of mine: Brazil, awesome film (some cuts (versions) are better than others). Oh, something you should really watch if you like Python and historical comedies is Black Adder! The first Black Adder series takes place during the Middle Ages.

Sounds like a very interesting course! Wish I could audit your class.

And I’ll look out for the extended LOTR versions — I almost always prefer the longer cuts — thanks for the info. Considering my former viewing conditions, I should not have jumped to any conclusions regarding LOTR.

Getting back to Dune for a second, the director’s cut is better.
