I think the first time I ever saw this movie was when I was eleven or so, long before the DVD format was even conceived. My dad borrowed this movie on VHS from a friend and subsequently copied it for our own viewing pleasure. Quite apart from the fact that the main movie disk features two movie tracks, one with superior sound quality and even slightly different narration from Michael Palin, there's also a French language track which I watch for just as many laughs as the English ones despite not speaking a word of French myself. And then of course there are two commentary tracks from the various Pythons, minus Graham Chapman for obvious reasons. The story is often way over the top but what else did you expect from the Pythons? Favorite scenes of mine are Arthur's encounter with the Black Knight, the plague scene, the self-abusive St. Benedictine monks, The Tale of Sir Robin, the Knights of Ni (both encounters), and of course Tim the Enchanter and the Bridge of Death. The Special Features disk includes such gems as a documentary explaining how one can obtain and use one's own coconuts for use in fake horse riding and, my personal favorite, a snippet, narrated by Palin if I'm not mistaken, explaining in gory detail how one can sing along with the chant of the St. Benedictine Monks (see the review title), by explaining the proper technique to whack oneself over the head with the DVD box. All in all I'm glad I bought this.
