I can&rsquo;t really say that the <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/title\/tt0079470\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>Life Of Brian<\/i><\/a> is one of my favorite Monty Python movies, because there were only three (<a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/title\/tt0071853\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>Monty Python and the Holy Grail<\/i><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/title\/tt0085959\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>Monty Python&rsquo;s Meaning of Life<\/i><\/a> are the other two), and I like them all. I think it&rsquo;s really cool that people will have the opportunity to see the film in the theaters again, but I really think that the film stands well enough on its own merits that the re-release shouldn&rsquo;t necessarily have been based on protests over Gibson&rsquo;s film.
