Compare Mel Brooks' Spanish Inquisition . . .
. . . to Monty Python's.
Which one do you find more amusing?
(As opposed to the REAL Spanish Inquisition, which was one of the worst examples of man's inhumanity to man.)

I was watching HotW last night and I asked myself the same question. Python's is better, but this one is pretty good too.
shareThey are both very different. Hard to compare but I am a fan.
Rebuild the WTC exactly as before and keep old movies accurate!
Monty Python's was better.
shareMonty Python's version is hilarious but in my opinion HotWP1 is better. It's one of my favorite musical comedy pieces in a film.
shareAs a comedy troupe, I prefer Monty Python just a wee bit more than Mel and his regular players. Not enormously, but a wee bit more. But Mel Brook's Spanish Inquisition is a masterpiece. He put way more effort and thought into it, and it's actually a better commentary on the Spanish Inquisition itself.
shareI thought Mel's would have benefited by the addition of a comfy chair.
