** The scene where Brian is hailed as a Messiah despite denying being him became ''even more hilarious'' when a very similar scene (with some almost identical lines) appeared in ''Film/DunePartTwo'' of all movies.

** In the Hungarian dub, Pilate always says 'L' in place of 'R'. He also wants to decorate his place with "a [[Creator/FranciscoDeGoya Goya]] or some other bird" -- conflating the Hungarian word for stork (gólya) with the famous 18-19th century Spanish painter.

** Reception to the infamous "What have the Romans ever done for us?" scene can depend heavily on the viewer's country. In lands where the Romans, well, did much, like Italy, Spain, Portugal, France and the Balkans, whose culture is still very Roman (most of the listed countries speak Romance languages, for instance) and where there is abundant Roman monumental archaeology still standing (Spain and Italy have several magnificent examples of the aqueducts mentioned in the scene), the joke is often found utterly hilarious, or even proudly considered not a joke at all. In other countries, it is more easily seen as a questionable apology of imperialism and/or colonialism.

* SpiritualSuccessor: The film has more than a few resemblances to ''Film/{{Jabberwocky}}''; a Monty Python-alumni film directed by Terry Gilliam about a man who is unwittingly swept up in the politics of the ignorant or insane people around him, repeatedly victimized, lionized and all-around abused by the absurd world that they live in.
