Arthur, King of the Britons, looking for knights to sit with him at Camelot. He finds many knights including Sir Galahad the pure, Sir Lancelot the brave, the quiet Sir Bedevere, and Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-as-Sir Lancelot.
Through satire of certain events in history (witch trials, the black plague) they find Camelot, but after literally a quick song and dance they decide that they do not want to go there.
While walking away, God tells them to find the Holy Grail. They agree and begin their search.
While they search for the Grail, scenes of the knight's tales appear and why they have the name they have. Throughout their search they meet interesting people and knights along the way.



 
Two young girls, Satsuke and her younger sister Mei, move into a house in the country with their father to be closer to their hospitalized mother.
Satsuke and Mei discover that the nearby forest is inhabited by magical creatures called Totoros.
They soon befriend these Totoros, and have several magical adventures.

Shaolin Soccer
Like footy? Love kung fu? Then you'll have a blast with the insane Shaolin Soccer. A brash, slapsticking spoof, it follows a group of down-on-their-luck Shaolin monks merging their martial magic with the beautiful game - and making it more beautiful than ever before. What it lacks in sophistication it more than makes up in energy, charm and downright silliness, while the wild game choreography and CGI madness takes film football to absurd new heights. Yes, folks, it's Bend It Like Bruce Lee!

Kung Fu Hustle
Stephen Chow's follow-up to SHAOLIN SOCCER ups the over-the-top action quotient by about three zillion percent. The story is set in 1930s Hong Kong, with Chow as a shaggy-haired, would-be bad guy named Sing, who gets caught up in the middle of a war between the top-hat-wearing Axe gang and the hard scrabble inhabitants of Pig Sty Alley. Bigger production values and a dizzying amount of CGI-enhanced martial arts (imagine Bruce Lee vs. Bugs Bunny in THE MATRIX).
