The Scottish-origin comedy troupe known as "Monty Python's Flying Circus" has had their hits and misses over the decades. Between their television show, their movies, and later their live specials, they've put together old material and new material, and just been funny in their own ways. While doing that, they've spoofed or poked fun at all sorts of things (like kidding Prince Charles to his face that his Mother was still on the throne.) All sorts of things of theirs have been considered quotable by various types of fans and geeks. They have fans all over the English-speaking world, and some fans in places where English is not the main language. One of their comedy skits involved a food inspector who made a visit to a chocolate factory. He was investigating claims that there were unsafe ingredients in their chocolate snacks. The company owner proudly pointed out how he used all natural ingredients- which didn't change how unsafe some of his all-natural ingredients were. Among the problem products were an actual dead frog covered in chocolate, and a "Spring Surprise" where the eater was surprised when blades sprang out to stab their mouth when they tried to eat the confection. A number of years ago, another Scot was accused of ripping off an idea from that skit. Although they denied any connection whatsoever, I personally think they copied it ACCIDENTALLY but did so anyway. This Scor became a household name around the world, and very famous, for what they did which included this idea (not that this idea was particularly important.) They became incredibly rich, and world famous. What is this Scot's name?

If you look at some of his really old stuff, his standup from before he got the "Mork and Mindy" gig, you;ll see some of the things he eventually put together as Mork. There was some awkward stuff that imitated some kind of robot, and so on. Once he put it together as a space alien, though, it all began to fit together and work.

Taking a wild swing..... "TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, JULIE NEWMAR"?????

So, he was the only alien to audition. He invented a lot of the character of Mork all by himself.

Correct- Vincent Price's spoken words.

Next song. "Darkness falls across the land. The midnight hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood To terrorize y'all's neighborhood. And whomsoever shall be found Without the soul for getting down Must stand and face the hounds of hell And rot inside a corpse's shell. The foulest stench is in the air, The funk of forty thousand years. And grisly ghouls from every tomb Are closing in to seal your doom."

There aren't that many masters of improv. Robin Williams is famous among comedians for it. Is it ROBIN WILLIAMS? (If so, that makes this show "MORK AND MINDY.")

"I'm saying that if CBS was there, we would have 'made' Sports Spectacular!" "What-you wanna do it again?" Mad Dog and "Batman." In the first, that was the fight with the bikers. "Batman" was punching and doing no damage. So, Mad Dog used a 2 x 4 to KO his opponent, strike to the shin, then to the back of the head. In the 2nd quote, they had been "forced" to try to jump a freight train. They reached the train just as a FLAT BED was crossing, so they made a successful jump. Later, "Batman" was still impressed at what they'd done. "Might be easier with your lights on." "Why advertise?" "James Bond" (Seymour Goldfarb Jr) decided to travel incognito AT NIGHT. "Why'd he call me 'shorty'?" "Because you're small. Small. S-M-all." Fenderbaum and Jamie Blake (Sammy Davis Jr and Dean Martin) when a state trooper stopped them and called Fenderbaum "shorty." "When you don't want him he's around! When you want him he's not around! I'm gonna go get a beer!" Towards the end, JJ was fed up with "Captain Chaos" and his appearances and disappearances. "Only in America! Get me 12 suites, better yet, the entire floor!" Sheik Abul Ben Falafel, upon arriving at the hotel for the race. Someone had just "parked" in the hotel LOBBY. "This infrared is the cat's @$$." Overnight, the Japanese team used an infrared spotlight and scanner rather than their headlights. When they passed a speed trap (which their car detected) the troopers heard something zoom past and the radar gun detected "something" at around 130 mph. "He can say that. He can say that cause if I had the time, I'd take those rosary beads and shove em up your nose." "These rosary beads? Up this nose?" "Yeah." "Will ya take a little advice? Bring friends." "Yeah, lots of them." JJ Mc Clure (Burt Reynolds) and Jamie Blake at the road closure towards the end. They had been sniping at each other all through the race, and things looked like a fight might start. Blake and Fenderbaum were dressed as priests, so Blake had rosary beads. ("We have a secret weapon- God is our co-pilot." "Remember our car? 2 seats? Where's he gonna sit?") "Listen to what I'm telling you. You go find a doctor. Get me Dr. Kildare. Get me Dr. Livingston. Get me Dr. Frankenstein. Just get me a doctor! Go where the - go where the doctors hang out." "Where is that?" "Bars, golf courses." "Golf course, bar. All right. Where else? Hospital!" "Try that too." JJ and Victor were driving an ambulance, so they needed a doctor and a patient. Victor was supposed to get a doctor, but had been unable to do so, " Maybe next year, we'll do this again." After the race, Goldfarb suggested that. It was probably the last official line of the movie. "You all right, Victor?" "Oh, I'm fine, J.J. It only hurts when I point." Early in the movie, JJ crashed a boat with VIctor on board. That's when they found out how fast an ambulance can go, which gave them an idea. Victor's index finger was in a splint, stuck pointing. "This is my faithful companion, Cato... Say hello, Cato! Been a cop long?" Captain Chaos, causing problems for JJ and calling him Cato to a highway patrolman. "For this I sent you to the best schools? For this I'm spending eight thousand on orthodonture work? For this I'm going broke paying that Beverly Hills analyst?" Mrs Goldfarb, fed up with her son's obsession with Roger Moore and delusion he was Moore. "I can't believe this is happening to me. This is not a joke any more. I'm being kidnapped." "Well, you can call it kidnapping if you want to be rude." JJ and Victor's patient, realizing she was stuck going cross-country, and JJ trying to spin control it. "I've always wanted to be...'Captain America'! It's a living!" At the end of the movie, JJ tore off Victor's Captain Chaos mask and cape, and said there wasn't going to be any more Captain Chaos. "I don't care. Because.. I've always wanted to be Captain USA! It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it!" *complete with new cape and USA mask* In the closing credits, The outtakes were shown. The last one was this scene. Dom de Luise changes his lines to make the cast crack up. "I've always wanted to be, Captain AMERICA! It's a living!" The cast. ready for the other lines. all broke up laughing. No, this is NOT, repeat NOT, a Marvel movie. Again, it's NOT a Marvel movie, of any type, nor a Marvel production, etc. Not Marvel, period. I mentioned that because someone would have assumed it was a movie with Captain America, even after I said it was not, so I kept repeating it. Oh, lost this one. When the Japanese team was driving on Infra Red, their monitor started blinking. "WARNING- RADAR DETECTED." One of them gave this reply. The next screen showed the police car's location, labelled "ENEMY". They zoomed past the radar trap. "Sayonara, bye-bye!"

No. I forgot to exclude that, but his sidekick's name is spelled "Kato" and I would have posted that correctly, I hope. Not based on any comic book, cartoon, comic strip, etc.

A few posts back, on this same page, was the question. Who was the stunt coordinator and sword master for the SW prequel trilogy, who played Cin Drallig.... etc. Then, the answer is Nick Gillard. That was correct, which means that's who Nick Gillard is. I didn't expect you to memorize anything, but scrolling up was always an option if you forgot the current question.

Well, stop stalling. Race over to one of those other threads and let's keep these moving.

Then you could correct the source of the 12-year-old Bar Mitzvah story since, as Raf pointed out, even if true, it's completely irrelevant to the finding in the temple at age 12 since they were there for the feast and not for a Bar Mitzvah.

No, and no.

Stop thinking "How would I remember the names of everyone in the cast?" (he was uncredited anyway), and start thinking "He wouldn't ask this question if I couldn't answer it. What about the question am I overlooking that would lead me to answer this correctly?" You can get this without knowing ANY Star Wars trivia.

And yet, the posters haven't been inclined to watch it. (BTW, Wordpup got it from the first quote. In fairness, his favorite exchange from the movie was the first one i used.)
