My friend years ago was opening a bar and needed a name. I told him this line and he went with it, naming the bar Nowhere Special.

[@joel8583]

Way cool!

And where is said bar? I must leave a review if its not close to me lol.

[@kingsleyroberts8226]

Blazing Saddles is not only a satirical masterpiece - it's also a farking brilliant movie. This scene sits up there with some of the great Hollywood endings. RIP Gene Wilder, Cleavon Little and the beautiful Madeline Khan.

[@joel8583]

Cheers!!!

[@TugiFox]

I'll drink to that

[@mrldkhyron4691]

RIP Humor.

[@francescovalenti7595]

"Nowhere special. I always wanted to go there." That line was the first thing that came to mind when Gene passed away. RIP

[@zoewells3160]

Funny how a parody of the genre can have a more genuinely emotionally impactful ending than a lot of serious takes on the genre

[@maigretus1]

Galavant was like that for the fantasy genre.

[@tommcilwee9938]

My favorite part of this movie … love what they say and the music too ! Then they ride off in the big Caddy ! Those really were the days !

God rest your soul Gene Wilder and Cleavon Little

R.I.P. Cleavon Little (1939-1992) (Sheriff Bart) and Gene Wilder (1933-2016) (Jim, "The Waco Kid").

Every cast member of this movie is dead except for Burton Gilliam, Robyn Hilton, and Mel Brooks.

[@sha11235]

I have never seen this in the theater, but I gather than whenever it does, when THE END comes up, everyone stands up and applauds like crazy.

[@joel8583]

Oh yeah, ive always imagined that!!

[@karenmarieh.j.3842]

Where do you go where this is played in the theater.

[@joel8583]

If it's at AMC Tysons, im there.

Can confirm, I saw this in theaters yesterday and the crowed cheered and applauded, it was awesome!

[@sha11235]

@@movieswithdaniel342 Did they give it a standing ovation too at the end?

It keeps getting better - with more meaning especially the ending... 'He conquered fear and he conquered hate... he turned our night into day...' Great Movie - Great Ending.

First I thought because of the graphics and then i saw the car and felt stupid

[@hench1985]

Best comment ever!

[@lucasirwin1641]

Not wrong at all

[@Esotereclectic]

This part always made me a little sad...you just didn't want the movie to end. It made you want to join the gang at Rock Ridge, or go ride off with Bart and Jim.

[@sha11235]

It is a little sad at the end, but that's probably due to the music. Also, all movies have to end. I feel that when this ends in the theater, everyone is standing up and damn applauding like crazy.

[@woodyburns]

sha11235 Oh, blow it out your ass, Howard

[@RLJ550]

Me personally, I'd go with Bart and Jim

[@nandano.1656]

esotereccentric Did you write this comment again in a different video of the same movie?

[@joshpitre13]

This movie is the reason I started watching westerns. Every time I watch this film I always replay the ending a few times

[@iiiiitsmagreta1240]

Nowhere special, huh? I've always wanted to go there.

[@joel8583]

Yeah, me too!

[@reelnickoconnor]

Somebody please explain to me how a one-off 70's Mel Brooks comedy has a more epic ending than any mega franchise in history.

[@srmcd1]

"Where do people go when they die, daddy?" "Nowhere special." "That sounds nice." "It really is."

[@foxhound13]

My favorite line from any movie. I almost want it on my tombstone or something.

[@joefriedman9843]

Great line and its also one that wouldn't be the same without Wilder saying it. He's the best.

[@Audrey378]

The ending to this movie was so ridiculously funny when it broke the fourth wall and continued the last bits in Hollywood, but there's just something about this closing scene where the two actors get off their horses and go "Nowhere Special" in a typical car that's just so... Emotional. I don't even know how to explain it. Maybe it's the idea that the wild ride this movie took us on was really just that. A movie. And having it remind the viewers of that is hilarious, beautiful, and sad, all at the same time. It's seriously impressive how such an unserious ending could make you cry.

[@KB-sv7fm]

My brother had a good belly laugh from this scene of the Cadillac limousine driving off into the sunset.

[@blastforth]

What a great shot. Guess they had to get it in just one take to time it with the sunset..

[@sha11235]

Maybe, I have no idea.

[@joel8583]

Eh!

[@stoybenxi7395]

This movie benefits from being a bunch of cliches, so it might have been just as funny if them mess up tbh

[@mannygee005]

what a great observation...

[@stephendrucker9789]

Believe it or not, there’s a sunset every day

[@TheSaneHatter]

The remarkable thing about this scene for me, is that it really does transport me a into a feeling of that sunny afternoon in 1970s Hollywood: that's a feeling I can honestly imagine, having been born around the time this film came out, and remembering just a bit of the 70s as a result.

[@saitohiraga9587]

It's sad knowing they are all gone now. If anything exists beyond death, hopefully Cleavon and Gene have met up and are chilling at nowhere special.

[@battlestarmarc]

One of the funniest films ever.

[@markkalfahs1047]

...love the movie and that sunset....did anyone make two more classic movies like this and Young Frankenstein in one year before or since?....amazing and thanks Mel.....

[@joel8583]

Nah, never had to.

[@shuboy05]

Blake Edwards filmed The Pink Panther and A Shot in the Dark nearly back to back. So the sequel was out six months after the first.

I love how they both try to be courteous and let the other one get in the car first. Nice little touch.

Nobody mentions how they’re in the Wild West with horses the whole movie and just casually hoppin in a car, Mel Brooks lowkey breakin the fourth wall 😂😂😂

[@OuterGalaxyLounge]

Dude, the whole movie breaks the Fourth Wall. All the end sequences are multi-layered meta. Gene Wilder is holding popcorn. They're watching a movie of themselves, lol.

[@johnhareiel5118]

Best way for 2 cowboys to ride off in the sunset! In Style!

[@anthonymalerbo322]

RIP Cleavon Little(1939-1992) and Gene Wilder(1933-2016).

[@vysedyne5116]

I normally refer to this as not 'Riding off into the sunset', but more of 'Driven off into the sunset' since the two are not even Driving the car, but eh, it's one way to look at it.

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

I guess technically, they're riding off into the sunset... in the car! ;) haha

[@WorkoutWithDanny]

What a fantastic end scene, if there has been any better “riding into the sunset” made, I’d love to see it. This one, although I knew it well, made me burst out laughing all over again. Top 5 funniest movies ever!

[@travisdrahozal1753]

You have to see the Mel Brooks in Tarantino's films. Django Unchained, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood-- this ending is so inherently there already. It's a satire, comedy, drama, pop culture reference mixed into one. What a classic film.

[@grazynazambeanie5963]

I always wanted to go off roading in big ole Cadillac

[@karenmarieh.j.3842]

I wonder if there is any Cadillac that isnt a SUV that could still handle that dirt road.

[@thestooge200]

Funny how, with Gene's passing, him riding off in a limbo feels more poignant than comedic now.

Okay, I thought such a scene was the ending of this film. From which film is the ending where a cowboy rides into the distance, the words THE END appear on screen, and he hits his head on the E and falls off and the horse keeps going?

The ending Food Fight and this scene is to purposefully alter the illusion of the film. It's suppose to say "At days end, this is just a movie" I've had discussions with various people about it who are fans. Some actually hate it. I love it personally. Ties in perfectly with the Film's Satire and social commentary
