I had a feeling Holy Grail would go far. And Dumb and Dumber should've been in the place of Office Space, which is a funny movie, but D&D is more of a classic at this point.

I disagree that D&D is a classic. Maybe it just wasn't for me...In regards to Office Space I think it is a strong comedy and a much better overall movie than D&D. Now I need to compare these two and I'm not sure what to do. One is certainly a cult classic, very funny, and stands up to the test of time, while Office Space (IMO) is extremely funny and I find it a more enjoyable movie to watch all the way through.

I like Office Space, but Dumb & Dumber is genius on every conceivable level. It definitely should have been here in place of OS.

For the purpose of this thread tho, going with Holy Grail. The definition of a classic.

Grail, Brian, Airplane should be the final 3.

As much as Monty Python are comedy geniuses (but more so for the TV show), Holy Grail isn't even their best or funniest film, I don't think. On the other hand, I'm pretty much astounded Office Space made it to the Final Four. But this is no contest.

I guess I need to give in and watch Holy Grail. Am I gonna like it?

It's a parody film in the the vein of Blazing Saddles or Airplane.

If you like those films, then yes.
