This is definitely my favorite Mel Brooks movie.

It's pretty amazing that he went out and saw Eraserhead, and then wanted David Lynch to direct it. Gotta give Mel credit.

All he did was produce that movie, though.

Anyway, everyone else is wrong except the 4 people that voted for The Producers. Congratulations the four of you for being so smart.

Wisconsin people...you'll appreciate this...today, in Madison, the crazy orange piccolo man was playing "Springtime for Hitler" on his piccolo.

Very disturbing.


This was all after I got a ride to a meeting with my professor from a van with some Turks and many, many Turkish rugs. Wow.

Holy crap!

Hey, are Screaming Guy (in front of hat store) and Scanner Dan still there?

My favourite State Street memory was when a gaggle of teenage goth panhandlers asked me for money for bus fare and I told them I'd spot them, but only if they stood up on the bench and sang "You Are My Sunshine" for me.

although not a movie, "Get Smart" anyone?

Young Fraankenshteen is a brilliant movie, but Blazing Saddles has more of the funny. All of the racist humor was written by Richard Pryor for fucks sake. I still shake my head at the audacity of the jokes. Aside from the weird ending (which still works), I can't think of one line in this movie that isn't funny. Even the subtle dialog is hilarious:

"Think about it gentlemen, whooping cough and hoof and mouth disease, a thing of the past."

"Never mind that shit, here comes Mongo!"

And I'm sure I've quoted it before, but:

Charlie: You shifty nigga, they said you was hung.
Bart: And they was right.

I know it's retarded, but I could quote this movie all day long.

It's corny and edgy at the same time. I can't think of a movie like it.

Blazing Saddles=Winner.

"You're sucking on my elbow."

Exactly.

Any of you who hasn't yet seen Blazing Saddles:

It's on AMC now (started at 7PM CST), and is running again at 9PM CST.
