You haven’t seen Montey Python and the Holy Grail?

Relax. We’ve only ever seen it in clips. Though it is obligatory to insult you in a terrible accent: You’re mother was a Hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!

(Seriously though, it was one of those movies that almost no one has watched, but has seen most of anyway.)

How almost no one has watched it? In my bubble, almost everyone has seen it multiple times, often in cinema during rereleases - it’s a cult classic!

  You know what makes a cult classic a cult classic, right? Very passionate but also niche fan bases.
  
  It’s a great and iconic film, but most people have never actually seen it end to end.

There’s a fair bit of humor you miss out on if you’ve only seen clips and memes. Most of my irl friends have seen it and blazing saddles, though that could be my fault…

  The ending is a real cop-out though

Everyone I have met who was worth talking to has seen and loved this movie. Am I old?

  it was a rite of passage when your parents finally thought you were old enough to watch Holy Grail
