Damn!
I bought the DVD years ago but forgot just how funny it is.
"Candygram For Mongo"
"The sheriff is a n...er"
"Excuse me while I whip this out"
Only Mel Brooks could come up with a Jewish Chief Sitting Bull.
...not to mention "raping the shit out of them at the number 6 dance..."

We pay almost $300 to Comcast every month for our complete cable, HD and internet service, and we STILL haven't gotten that channel added out here!!! :banghead:

I watched 'Spaceballs' last night :p

I have to wonder what the outrage would be if a movie like Blazing Saddles were to have been first released in todays world??

Mel Brooks would've been crucified.

That sucks!
I pay ~$80.00 a month for Dish with the 200 channel basic, 5 superstation, local Portland, OR channels, AND the HD package! I am very pleased with Dish and if you try them, make sure they do NOT try to charge you for the HD dish/DVR-receiver install. If the sales rep tries to jack you around, call back, tell them a B.S. story of how Comcast sucks and you want Dish. Your first time install should be free for install, dish, and DVR-receiver. You can connect your Internet to the Dish receiver for extra programming stuff AND, a big-honkin USB hard drive to it for extra storage. It should be worth a free phone call to check it out plus Dish has more HD channels and some kind of Free HD For life promotion.
After that, I spend $50.00 a month for Comcast Internet. I have found that Dish satellite picture quality is superior to that of Comcast and the Dish receiver responds and switches channels substantially faster and the channel grid is more functional than that of the Comcast receivers.
As an added bonus, don't know if you are into it or not but Dish is the only carrier that carries WFN - The World Wide Fishing Network!
Yup! 24-hour fishing in HD!
ETA:
the Dish HD "dual-tuners" receivers will drive two TV's independently, one in HD and the other, say in a bedroom in standard def using two independent remotes.

That is why I bought it on DVD over ten years ago. I had watched it on HBO shortly before that and they "sliced-n-diced" it to the point of ruin. The DVD version I have and the version they played today are the original cuts.
"The Camp Town Ladies..."

I worked on an outfit whose cowboss bought Lester the Longhorn (Mongo's steed) on a whim. Big ole sucker had decided his riding days were over and would swing his head back and wap you with a horn when we tried. Left a mark, I'll tell you.
I get a kick out of that movie.
-
Dang, but I love Mel Brooks. I will be watching "History of the World" this weekend. Thanks for the reminder!
-
He's a genius, pure and simple.
Another funny part is when they set up the 10 cent toll booth to slow the marauders down. :lmao:
"Candygram for Mongo!"....priceless. :rotf:

It's like "All in the Family" on tv. Could never be made now. Never mind that Archie's views were being held up to ridicule (even while being made a 3-dimensional, and at root, lovable) character. You just can't say the words. Stupid. And Norman Lear is somewhere to the left of Michael Moore.

Can't seem to get youtube to embed...is something wrong? Never had trouble before.

I remember seeing Blazing Saddles when it was released. People walked out during the "campfire" scene. I laughed so hard I cried.
-
Even the throwaway lines are hilarious...
Some of my favorites:
Bart: "The bitch was inventing the candygram."
The Waco Kid: "I've killed more men than Cecil B. DeMille."
Taggart: "You use your tongue purtier than a $20 whore..."
-
Mel Brooks would've been crucified.
"Too Jewish."
-
Even the throwaway lines are hilarious...
The Waco Kid:
"What's a dazzling urbanite like you doing in a rustic setting like this?"
"Well my name is Jim, but most people call me...Jim."
"oh I don't know, play chess, screw.."
Cleavon Little: "well let's play chess."
ok, now i've got to see it. I'm laughing my head off right now. I mean, if you must pry...*
*Oh I must, I must.

My friends and I still use some of those one-liners when working cows together. Funny stuff.

This is and always will be my favorite.

"I hired you boys to get a little track laid, not jump around like a buncha Kansas City faggots."
Best. Line. Ever!

Comparing Mel Brooks movies is like comparing sunsets.

It's good to be the king! :rotf:
Me and some guys I work with were watching that down at our local bar the other day and were cracking up. The bartender, about 22, looked at us like we were lunatics.
This is and always will be my favorite.

That was the most hilarious scene I think I have ever seen in any movie.

Madeline Kahn is one of my most favorite female actresses ever! She is pure comedic genius!
Her acting in Blazing Saddles AND Young Frankenstein was historic!
Of course there is High Anxiety "hanging" out there too...
Then there is Cloris Leachman...Nurse Diesel...fruit cup et al...

Definitely!
A little history - I watched a program covering Gene Wilder's career a few years ago. Young Frankenstein was 100% his baby. He wrote it and directed it with Mel Brooks producing. Seems the two of them came to severe logger-heads several times during the shoot of the movie to the point of the entire movie almost being dropped.
Terri Garr - yeeeeeow!
Marty Feldman? Another genius!
"Ughhh Abby Someone...
Abby someone? Abby WHO?
Ugh.. Abby Normal
Abby Normal *chuckles*
Yes I'm almost SURE that's the name.
Are you saying... that I put an abnormal brain into a 7 1/2 foot long, 54 inch WIDE..... GORRILLLAAAAAA???????? IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE TELLING ME??"
