    Gene Wilder's delivery on "Little bastard shot me in the ass." gets me every time. Another little scene that I love is the look on Bart's face when Jim says, "No no don't do that...don't do that, if you shoot him you'll just make him mad."

    When they ended recording this song in studio, Frankie laine thanked mel brooks, with tears in his eyes, " for being given the chance to record something so pure and inspiring".
    And Mel brooks couldn't bring himself to tell this man that it was for a joke.

    My favorite joke was the only one Mel Brooks chose to take out of the script for obvious reasons. The scene with Bart and Lili in her dressing room where she's saying "it's true, it's true" fades to black after she says the line. But in the original script after she says it Bart says to her "I hate to disappoint you ma'am, but you're sucking on my arm".

    This movie was written by Richard Pryor and Mel Brooks. The studio cited Richard's drug use and said he was uninsurable and refused financing, also Brooks originally wanted John Wayne as The Waco Kid, but he declined, good thing too as Gene was so much better. Also Pryor told Brooks that the N words had to be included in the film or else he felt it wouldn't be a realistically funny movie.
    Trivia: When this movie aired on television the farts in the “campfire scene” were censored.
    Trivia:
    Richard Pryor was originally going to play the role of sherif but due to some arrests the studio thought he wasn’t insurable. If he had, it would have been Richard Pryor & Gene Wilder’s first onscreen team up.

    God I love this movie. I remember back in 2000 for our high school senior project in English my best friend and I had to research a topic with relevance to our area and present it to our class, and extremely long story short our topic ended up being assigned to us since our original idea didn't work out. We ended up with How the 1849 California Gold Rush affected our local area in Ohio and we had about a quarter of the time to work on it since we had to start so late. About 2 days before it was due and needing 20 minutes for presentation and a 20 minute video, all we had to show was an 8 minute video and 0 to present, though we'd shot some comedic skits with buddies as filler for our video _(think In Living Color interview skits with Jim Carrey in the background, that's what we ended up doing.)_ With *maybe* a day left I got the genius idea to add the entire campfire scene from Blazing Saddles into our video because it actually segued nearly *PERFECTLY* between some scenes we'd shot, giving us like a 10 minute movie. Between that video and my world class BS skills of turning a zero-preparation presentation into a 60 minute long Q&A involving the whole class we scored an A on our project. I remember our teacher and the librarian watching in the background both trying to hold back their laughter when the campfire scene came up and I'm convinced it pushed our grade up.
    In a very real way... Mel Brooks probably helped me graduate high school 🤣

    Things I noticed very recently
    1) Anne Bancroft (Mel Brooks' wife) is standing next to John Hillerman (Howard Johnson... whose name and business jokes in of themselves that I missed when I was younger, as I was not familiar with the Howard Johnson's brand).
    2) Harriet Johnson (soft spoken school marm with sudden power voice) is played by Carol Arthur (Dom Deluise's wife)
    3) Reverend Johnson is the same actor as Mr. Hilltop (the old guy Fredrick Frankenstein knees in the hoohah during his presentation).

    Mongo is played by Alex Karras, who was a pro football player. He later played the evil sheriff in Porky's and the dad in the TV show Webster. All his dialogue was written by Richard Pryor, who was brought in to write Bart's dialogue.

      One of the biggest myths in Hollywood. The script was written by a team of writers that included Mel Brooks, Andrew Bergman, Richard Pryor, Norman Steinberg, and Alan Uger (another African American that greatly contributed to Bart's lines)

    Love this movie and yes it is probably one of the few movies from that era that is just timeless and funny every time you watch it, Mel was a genius not only in writing and producing, but casting, even when it was himself. One of my favorite Gene Wilder movies is The Frisco Kid with Harrison Ford. Way underrated and I couldn't find a single react video to it. Also, while I am sure you've seen it, Haunted Honeymoon is another great Wilder flick. Kudos on the Nightwish swag, big Floor fan! Keep up the good work! Love your reactions! :)

The town meeting, and everyone has he same last name, but only show their initials. Pugs were in the list of bad guys to round up.

  • @tvix6737

    I love watching reaction videos to this movie and the both of you have the best I have seen so far. The only thing I get disappointed in when I watch reactions to Blazing Saddles is no one shows any of the extended scenes of Mongo vs. Bart.
    This movie played with my head for years because, growing up, when it was shown on television, they had several extra scenes. Later on, those scenes were dropped and left out of every release until the 30th anniversary edition. Imagine watching those scenes and then never seeing them again for decades. People thought I was confused.

    Since you're Madeline Kahn fans (who isn't?), I have to ask if you've seen WHAT'S UP, DOC (1972). My guess would be you're aware of it, but if not, it is hilarious and features one of Madeline Kahn's best performances. It's also her first screen role and she is as brilliant as always!

  • @goldenager59
    @goldenager59 3 года назад +2

    I believe my personal favorite appearance of Madeline Kahn (God tickle her souls) is her breakout role, in Peter Bogdanovich's 1972 send-up of 30's screwball comedies, "What's Up, Doc?". If you really desire a yuk-fest fit to bring down the ceiling, the roof, and all the floors in between, I CAN'T recommend it highly enough. 😁
