This is cruel.

I've always thought Life Of Brian is better as a cohesive piece, but Holy Grail is the funnier movie. Will probably go with Holy Grail because it's made a bigger impact on me and I hear it referenced much more, but both are great.

I feel pretty strongly that Life of Brian is the better movie, but Holy Grail is certainly more iconic in popular culture. Both are all-time great comedies. This is going to be hard!
