Holy Grail and Life of Brian were both fine films. The other M-P films, not so much.
No, I'm of the right generation. I remember seeing Star Wars in the big theater when it came out; I was 14 at the time. It's the quality of the humor. The jokes in Spaceballs I found to nearly all be too obvious and of low wit, and too much potty/body function/lowbrow stuff. Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein were smart and witty films.
