Here’s a video of two tykes re-creating the Black Knight scene from Monty Python And The Holy Grail, complete with childish taunting, swordfighting, and adorably brutal limb-chopping.

That it fails so spectacularly in this regard makes it almost something special — not only is Bucky Larson incredibly unfunny, it’s also squeamish in a manner that makes you wonder if either writers Adam Sandler (who produced the film via his Happy Madison company), Allen Covert and Nick Swardson (who plays Bucky) have somehow never actually seen porn, or if they subcontracted the script out to a group of eight-year-olds with only the vaguest idea of what it entails. The latter would explain how incidental sex is to what’s theoretically a movie all about it, from an early scene in which we learn that our hero has never masturbated or even heard of the concept, to the porn career he establishes, in which he never actually comes into contact with his costars.
