Mal_Khar: Python cage? And what does exactly that mean? This guy didn't do anything original since they end their work. Terry Gillian found niche for himself why Idle can't?

Arteveld: Is that mandatory? Why are You forbidding a man of recycling his own material?

Mal_Khar: Shrek's translation? I won't say anything about this cause Shrek sucks both in English and Polish. Another movie with more advertising than it was worth.
avatar
Arteveld: I'm talking about the translation. Your personal opinion on the movie doesn't interest me in the slightest

avatar
Mal_Khar: I really don't know anything about Cenega's translation's - I play games with spoken English or not at all.
avatar
Arteveld: So do i, in fact, i don't even buy PLs. No English, no buy. Still, knowledge gives me perspective. Cenega makes some of the lousiest localizations i've seen.

Mal_Khar: My perspective on a rip-offs is this:
You won't get my money! :-)
avatar
Arteveld: Opinion are like assholes, You know?:)
And it doesn't change the fact, that it's not a ripoff.
It is a ripoff. It is even advertised as one :-)

Mal_Khar: It is a ripoff. It is even advertised as one :-)
Obviously, that requires some argumentation.
Which definition of ripoff should I use? I think Merriam-Webster is quite nice:
- a usually cheap exploitive imitation.
Let's leave cheap out of this (after all it's only usually).
Is it exploitive? - check.
Is it imitation? - check.
Is it advertised as ripoff? - also check.

I don't intend to start argument over musical which You liked so let's leave it at that.

The 'ripoff" in the tagline is a joke by itself. I still don't think one can rip off his own work, as in exploitatively imitate one self.;)

Well, it's not about liking, it's about it being good, really good. I'm one of those who believes taste =/= quality. I agree, let's leave it here.

Anyhow, i found my answer somewhere on the net, by intensively looking through the Broadway version on YT, they have a different melody on the Hymn 101, and the Hymn is just called "Get Your Hand Off My Knee, Ya Dirty Old Bastard", and nobody puts any hands on knees there. I'll have to hunt someone outside of the Theater one evening, and get some answers.;)
My mum has it on DVD. I haven't had time yet to borrow it from her. Isn't there a play out now based on Life of Brian?
I saw it in London a while back. Funny stuff even if it wasn't the greatest musical ever.
