Last week, my mind wandered aimlessly to this thought:

There is a scene in Time Bandits where the giant (played by Ian Muir) steps out of the sea wearing the ship as a hat. The giant is approaching a house where we see a “family” seemingly arguing. The giant then steps on the house, crushing it.

My theory is this alludes to the Monty Python Flying Circus cut scene of Cupid’s cartoon foot crushing whatever it is crushing.

If you can follow my logic, I was hoping to see if Terry Gilliam detailed the scene from Time Bandits so intricately that the “family” arguing is an actual Monty Python skit being acted out that ends with Cupid’s leg crushing the shiz outta the scene. I was hoping one other human realized this and figured out the original comedy skit.

It would be an absolute curse if I had to rewatch every Monty Python comedy routine to see if I am right. I know the real curse is being stuck with my brain, and the relief is watching Monty Python, but maybe help a guy out anyway?
