      I feel like people romanticise the Pythons a fair bit these days, only remembering the classics. Some of their stuff wasn't that great, or has aged poorly. Joel's stuff seems to be pretty consistently good, and I have a feeling it will age well too. Don't get me wrong though, still a big Python fan, just without the rose coloured glasses I used to wear.

      I watched the Life of Brian recently and found it amusing. Though, as someone who's never seen any of their work before, I think it does feel like surreal humor of the past. Used to be unique, nowadays it's more quaint than properly weird (no doubt in part due to their huge influence).
