Talk:Rabbit of Caerbannog

replies: text: Yes it is notable.  How on earth could you reduce the No Ordinary Rabbit to just a blurb describing the film in general??? :p   Tom S.
I think the Cave of Caerbannog should be merged into this one.  The movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail references the rabbit, not the cave. Jaylweb 07:26, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

text: There's no way you can seriously construe the Pols Voice as a Holy Grail reference. First, there's more than one of it. Second, they're not even rabbits - they're blobs with whiskers and long ears!  --220.237.67.125 13:40, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I've removed this sentence from the end of the first paragraph: The knights also build, and survive the flinging back of a giant wooden Trojan Rabbit, another reference to this rodent. At this point in the film, the actual rabbit has yet to make an appearance, and the knights aren't mentioned in the introduction either. Feezo (Talk) 00:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Killer bunnies reference? 

message: I think that somewhere in this article it should mention that the killer rabbit makes an appearance in the musical Spamalot. I don't know of any website that can confirm this off the top of my head but it is mentioned on the page for Spamalot itself. Also I can't really think of the best way to include this. Should it get its own mention and spoiler warning, should it just appear in the section listing other refrences to the rabbit? I dunno, what do other people think? 64.229.163.157 01:11, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Another Popular Culture Reference. 

message: Final Fantasy 11 most certainly does not make reference to it. Just because rabbits are a type of enemy in-game does not mean it was influenced by Holy Grail at all, and if you were to for some reason insist that any relatively powerful rabbit in any game is a reference to the movie, your list would be enormous.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.143.64.216 (talk) 20:20, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Shadow Warrior Reference 

message: The words "When the guardian appears to be an innocuous white rabbit" are currently accompanied by a reference to page 22 of a book called "For God's sake shut up", which appears to be a handbook for Christian speakers on how not to make idiots of themselves in public. I don't see what this adds to the article. Normally a reference is supposed to offer supporting evidence, but in this case that's clearly not needed and a book like this is a mighty strange thing to be using as evidence for what's in MPATHG anyway. And it's hard to see what's special about this, among all the (presumably many) times this scene has been used as an example of something. (I don't even think the scene is a good example of the point the author of the book is making, but that's not really the point.) I'm about to remove that reference.

thread_title:  Reference to "For God's sake shut up" 

message: I note above, this article was nominated for deletion. Interesting, since I came here seeking information about this scene from the movie and found what I had sought. For future reference - it served its purpose and I'm all the wiser; glad it was kept. JimmyButler (talk) 17:23, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deletion 

message: The article says the first appearance of the Vorpal Bunnies was in Space Gamer in the early 80s, but it doesn't say which 80. Can we get a date check on that? (Perhaps a "citation needed" is needed) I happen to know that Wizardry featured Vorpal Bunnies, and that has a 1981 copyright date. There weren't too many 80s before that. AngusCA (talk) 21:25, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think any article which includes use of the word vorpal, ought to reference Jabberwocky. Though the nonsense word is not supplied with any obvious meaning, the fact it is used there to describe a sword (vorpal blade), might suggest vicious or fearsome.

message: There is currently a section that claims that a "vorpal bunny" appears in the 1st edition PHB. I am sceptical of that, but I don't have my edition to hand. Could someone check that it really is there and, if so, provide a page reference?
Even if there is a "vorpal bunny" do we have any evidence that it is a cultural reference to the Holy Grail film? Bunnies as amusingly dangerous date back at least to the Middle Ages. "Vorpal" is a word invented by Lewis Carroll to refer to a specific sword in Jabberwocky. It need not have anything to do with Monty Python. Francis Davey (talk) 14:34, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I know I'm five years late, but the first "vorpal bunny" in D&D came out in Judges Guild's periodical The Dungeoneer in issue #01 in June 1976, authored by Jennell Jaquays.

message: So the article does mention that Caerbannog refers to the many Welsh place names starting in 'caer'. What about 'bannog'? To me, its like 'bannock' (annockburn)... but don't want to state it on the main page, as I don't know if it's right. Any know about that? --Svartalf (talk) 13:12, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
