message: According to the Useless Tidbits for Episode 2, "Sex and Violence" of Monty Python's Flying Circus (The 16-ton DVD collection), the Mouse Problem skit was written for "The Magic Christian" and not used.  Should this be included?Jtyroler (talk) 06:15, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unused Skit 

message: This sentence in the Overview: "Notable are the appearances of (pre-Monty Python) John Cleese and Graham Chapman (uncredited), who had written an earlier version of the film script, of which only the scenes they appear in survived." seems incorrect in part.  It says uncredited, and just having watched it (on MOVIES! channel) I saw them listed as writers.  I also see John Cleese on the Cover of the Video on this site (though I know this is much later).  I hesitate to change or edit it though as it might indicate that they were uncredited in the original version. I think it may mean Chapman was not credited as an actor?

thread_title:  John Cleese and Graham Chapman 

message: I forget the article but it was pointed out that several of the actors in the film were pranked by their roles in the film to play agains statements they had made in real life. Yul Brenner said some anti gay things so was made to play a transvestite. Raquel Welch had said she wouldn't play a "scantly clad sex pot" again. But played the scantly clad sexpot dominatix mistress of the whip. Several others "sacrificed their 'principles'" for the money.

message: Is it nice to call homeless people "derelicts"? In the film, there's nothing particularly "derelict" about Youngman ("derelict" implying homelessness is a person's own fault). He isn't drunk, he isn't addicted to any drug, he's very polite and pleasant. He just happens not to have a home, which can happen to anyone, unfortunately.
Can we call him a homeless "man" or "person" instead? 84.67.116.161 (talk) 18:19, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
