One of the great things about Blazing Saddles is when they were making it, the studio executives would look at the dailies, and tell Mel Brooks what he had to cut. Mel would say, "yes sir! That's gone!" Then he'd completely ignore what they had to say, and made that movie the way he wanted to make it. Why? Because he knew it was going to be a great movie.

It's always better to just agree and then go and do what you were going to do anyway. It makes discussions shorter and it makes it less likely that anyone will check on how you're doing things. The number of times I've improved things against my employers will is more than a few. You do have to be absolutely sure that it's going to work though. But if you are, it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission.

[@bewilderment9268]

Best thing about that movie is that the MPA told Mel to cut out a bunch of scenes that were just way too offensive. True to form, Mr. Brooks said ok, then released it the next day without any changes. The rest is history, still being made.

[@rachellockwood2661]

Or when Cleavon and Gene Wilder are talking after the old lady told Cleavon "up yours" and Gene is talking about how these are just simple people... "you know... morons." Gene added the word "morons" himself and they left it in there because it was hilarious and Cleavon's reaction was genuine. Or at the end when they're running out of Warner Bros and there's that random dude standing there? They couldn't get him to leave and Mel thought it was funny so they left it. Gosh this is such a great movie!

Well, Harvey Corman...he even promoted himself in-film, played his villainy perfectly and hilariously, and still didn't get a supporting nod. Maybe HE should've received a nomination. Madeline Kahn probably deserved hers. But Cleavon Little? Ehhh. Rough year to get nominated for 'best actor' in a movie like this. Lots of great films and big names that year. Granted, "Murder on the Orient Express" was nominated too much. Of anyone overlooked, it would have to be Gene Hackman in "The Conversation."

[@davidkramer333]

That's what we need to do. I think people spend too much time on the internet, there are very few people that get offended by this. Me and my girlfriend are millennials, she is black and I showed her this movie...at first she was like WTF!! Now it is one of her all time favorites.

[@BlueLighteningGojo]

Remake that? Yeah, I’d like to see someone try. We’ve got way too many over sensitive losers in the world today.

[@HolyGhostofBobbyLupo]

Bart and the Waco Kid would be gay lovers, Lilly Von Stupe would be Trans, and that joke Lilly makes when she hooks up with Bart about black dudes being gifted would be said by Bart instead asking about her package.

[@cucuydog6835]

Django was funny as fuck different style of comedy but same concept they focused on the racism and the inequity at the time and made it very humorous I get that it was more of an action movie but I found most of the scenes pretty funny when it came down Retribution aspect it was good shit and over the top

[@k5rjtxj]

Carlin and Richard Pryor are the best comedians ever! The fact that Richard Pryor wrote it is just awesome

[@MAGGOT_VOMIT]

Funny thing is, "Gabby Johnson" was played by Jack Starrett who also played "Deputy Art Galt" in "First Blood (1982)", the a-hole deputy that fell out of the helicopter. Jack was a very talented actor. RIP to all those great actors.

[@TheWadotexas]

one of the funniest movies ever!! after all these years i still laugh out loud!!!

[@BassNinja]

Yes Biden doesn't have a problem saying it and probably star in it.

[@Minxyminx68]

Lol hell no!! I been saying I cant believe they havent "cancelled" it yet....that is one of my all time favorites though!😂

[@TeckieWeckie]

I remember just over two years ago when all the hyper woke stuff started they started to pull it off the shelves.

[@MrClobbertime]

They probably don't even know it exists, I can't even remember the last time it was on TV, it's been so long.

[@PeacefulVictorytoTruth]

Richard Pryor!! I MISS YOU, WE NEED AS A COUNTRY... A GOOD OL' TALKIN' TO!!

[@jimtownsend7899]

Still one of my favorite movies! I'm not sure how many times I've watched it, but I can tell you that nobody likes to watch it with me, because I know all the lines and say them along with the characters. In fact, I love to just randomly quote lines from the movie in daily life. Little things, like, "Somebody's gotta go back and get a shitload of dimes!"

[@shaneyearby4438]

Definitely one of the best comedic films ever made.

[@Junzar56]

This was a genius movie. I still fall of my chair laughing. I love when Gene Wilder is describing the townsfolk, “…. You know, morons”

[@CaptainAmaziiing]

I was just a kid when this came out and my dad took the family to see it. I remember him laughing non-stop but I simply didn't get it yet. I only remembered the fart scene.

[@wmrphotography7349]

I once watched this on a streaming service and they had a five minute explanation about it at the beginning. It was ridiculous, also they had a 30 minute intro to ‘Gone With the Wind’.

[@AntisocialRedNeckNerd]

I remember seeing this move at a drive inn theater in Austin TX. I love the movie. It has lots of great comic moments including the Waco Kid. . . I also wonder of the move Silver Streak could be made today. In this movie, Richard Pryor’s character paints Gene Wilder’s character in black face. He did it to help Gene’s character sneak back on the train avoiding law enforcement.

[@proteus2103]

omg, the timing and pace of these jokes are perfection

[@funwithfood7451]

I wouldn’t want to see blazing saddles made today. The quality of the actors today would not stand up to the script!!! Richard Pryor stands alone!!!

[@cucuydog6835]

Django .. action comedy

[@YN97WA]

I've watched a lot of reaction videos to this movie; apart from people being offended and/or shocked, nobody gets the Laurel and Hardy gag. It's a damn shame!

[@jbock622]

Thank you for showing this Steven. And you’re absolutely right, it’s hilarious and it’s making fun of the way things used to be.

[@welcometotheneighborhood2712]

The world needs this to be remade!

[@scottjohnson7780]

This was hilarious, I'll never forget the first time I saw it. Unfortunately, we can't have fun, and make fun of ourselves anymore.

[@kchibbs1578]

"The Toy" is another great Richard Pryor movie that you couldn't make today. He was brilliant.

[@johnp9402]

Let's go Brandon!!!!

[@willyk-fv6ok]

Easily my favorite comedy!

[@rolliebrewer530]

Jack Starret who played George Gabby Hayes also played the sadistic deputy Art Galt in Rambo

[@pamczech5984]

Then there is the scene where everyone ask him to save them then everyone apologizes for treating him like dirt but only in secret

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

You will have to common decency not to tell anyone I spoke to you.

[@davidodonovan1699]

This is why this film has to be remade today. Just like the Trump elections, those that make false and defamatory accusations of systemic racism can be ignored, aor stood up to, in favour of everyone else.

[@ladybug591]

Yep..... Thanks so much David. NOT. A re-make would have Whoopie Goldberg as the sheriff and numerous black ladies as the Mayor and so on, etc. etc. and the men would be wearing bonnets and aprons. No-one would have guns, just wooden spoons to smack naughty people on the back of the leg. "You go girl." as they say. I just can't wait. Lol.

[@davidodonovan1699]

@@ladybug591 Maybe. It depends on who makes it. There are plenty of organisations out there that would be able to do it. Have you heard of pepe meme culture?

[@jlopez2132]

My favorite line in the movie is, "Hey where the white women at?" 🤣🤣🤣

[@jandramardges3368]

I like the old lady sneaking in the pie!

[@ChristopherKnN]

Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.

[@LivingWateraide]

That was my favorite movie to watch with my dad when I was growing up. Best movie ever!

[@heylady8169]

I have a Mel Brooks box set, and watch the movies with my kids all the time. Mel Brooks movies will always be great!

[@hajesse7706]

Lol my family watched this movie on Thanksgiving. Dad wanted a “Western” and mom wanted a “Comedy”. Thought I’d improvise

[@live4hockey2]

Blazing Saddles is one of my all time favorite movies. Me and my dad went to go watch a screening of it at a small local theater a few years ago. Before the movie started the manager came out on stage and asked the small audience who had never seen Blazing Saddles and there was a small group who never had. The manager told them "There was a time before Blazing Saddles and a time after it." Me and my dad laughed our asses off and the people who had never seen it looked mortified.

[@catherinecurtis2865]

I was watching some Benny Hill episodes on KZbin recently and realized that they are funnier than anything I have seen on TV or in Cinema in the last 20 years. And the strange thing is, at the time Benny Hill was first aired, nobody complained. It was not everyone's cup of tea, and if they didn't like it, they didn't watch it. Oh, and Blazing Saddles is possibly the most hilarious film ever made! I even own a copy and watch it when I need a good laugh.

[@nopenope1510]

That still cracks me up years later.

[@rickdekard218]

I love that Higgins from magnum pi is in this movie
