Monty Python and the Holy Grail 48 1/2 year anniversary in theaters December

I absolutely adore Monty Python! Would it be alright if I gently remind our new-age coding enthusiasts, particularly those from the younger generation, that Python (the programming language) was actually named after this incredibly entertaining group, and not the snake species?

The film quality looks to be somewhat improved, the copy I have is very grainy looking. I wonder what processing has been done.

If they could redo just one scene it would be where they're approaching some peril and there's warning signs in the background (like, Keep out!, Certain Death!).

Every time I see it I try follow what they're saying while reading the signs and end up doing neither.

I wish Nim or maybe Mojo would have been named Monty instead.
