"Walk this way" is a gag from the 1936 movie "After the Thin Man". Mel's a funny guy, but he lifted that particular joke.

Dom DeLuise was in Cannonball Run and Cannonball Run II, Smokey and the Bandit II, and has a cameo in The Muppet Movie. He also voiced a number of characters in animated movies, like The Secret of NIMH, Oliver & Company, and the American Tail and All Dogs Go to Heaven series.

14:20 with the swimming nuns is an Esther Williams reference (Million Dollar Mermaid 1952). Very few know that.

[@guymorris6596]

That was the same pool that RKO used for Esther Williams movies and swimming scenes. Mel Brooks knew he needed it for History of the World so he bought it.

[@tonymontana-tx9om]

Another great video guys. You can't go wrong with Mel Brooks. I find that the funniest movies are those that aren't comedies but are so badly made they're hilarious. You know B-Movies that are soooo bad they're good. Maybe in between the movies on your list you can watch a few of them. Love you guys keep the great videos coming.

Also the orator of the most deliberately uttered insult designed to get a laugh. Lost all respect for him when he insulted Prince Charles' letter of admiration to him, read aloud to him by Jonathan Ross at the British Comedy Awards. Not because I'm a Royalist (I'm not), but his nasty dismissal of an admirers love for his comedic style seemed a very cheap and spiteful shot and hardly the kind of trick a so called comedic giant would need to stoop too, to get a laugh.

Yeah, it's kinda of an inside joke with the sequels, Mel Brooks has always said he always intended to do sequels, it's just when he would sit down the write them he always came up with new concepts and ideas and he said they never were box office hits, so he really didn't know how much of a following his films were building.

9:42 Sorry to spoil the fun but it's Vestal Virgins - like the Roman Goddess Vesta, virgin goddess of the hearth an home, (her Greek counterpart was called Hestia). She was the first born out of the first 6 gods (the next 5 being Ceres/Demeter, Juno/Hera, Pluto/Hades, Neptune/Poseidon, and Jupiter/Zeus) and therefore was the first of the 5 swallowed by their father (Jupiter/Zeus was hidden by their mother before his father could eat him) but was also therefore the last one to be vomited back up so she's both the eldest and the youngest out of them. She got a lot more attention in Rome than she did in Greece because the Romulus and Remus's (Rome's founders who ended up trying to kill each other) mother was a Vestal Virgin before Mars (God of War, Roman counterpart to Ares) noticed her and in all likelihood attacked her - she was either then killed or was separated from her sons, in anycase they ended up being found and raised in part by a she-wolf. So yeah, unless you're an actual god (and according to all the stories the gods get really really mad when we mortals start going around claiming we're gods) you'd better not ignore the no entry sign.
