The scene in the life of brian where he is naked after having sex he swings wide the window shutters and all the worshippers are packed in tight to see him. Its the hardest I ever laugh and my friend had to pause the movie. I was on the ground and got a laugh cramp and it was like 5 or 10 minutes before we could progress again watching it.

Someone else said The Argument Clinic and that is definitely my favorite.

But my most referenced is "And now for something completely different."

In a happier timeline, there's a Judge Dredd movie with John Cleese as Dredd. Directed by Terry Gilliam.

So many things. Great memories with friends watching it just losing their shit laughing over the dead parrot sketch and the alien abduction scene from life of brian. Many great jokes. Also I discovered Terry Gilliam movies over Monty I think, which are whole worlds of treasure for themselves.

Just great.
