We Don't Need No Stinking Badgers!

[@brianvaira486]

I never got the reference as a kid, yet I still thought this scene was hilarious. It’s a testament to how good his delivery was.

[@NeuralNetProcessor]

Yeah I watched this on vhs years ago and my folks laughed at that but I didn't get it either

[@jjmanzano9]

Me too. My brothers and I said it all the time 🤣

[@robdoyle2063]

With ya, now twice as funny

[@lordyoehann1817]

I always thought this was an original line too. I never knew it was from a movie before. I first saw UHF when I was either 12 or 13. I didn't know about Treasure of Sierra Madre back then.

[@xennial80sxberner]

Same, and exactly, the delivery makes it funny in itself. Just like I didn't get the Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault thing at first either

[@thohangst]

For the youngsters: The reference is to the movie Treasure of the Sierra Madre. The line "we don't need no stinking badges" was never uttered. Rather, "We don't need no badges. We don't need to show you no stinking badges!" It was really quite funny how the gangster was so taken aback by a request to show his badge (he was posing as a lawman). See the movie.

[@Andvare]

But in the Blazing Saddles movie, they do say "we don't need no stinking badges", which was, of course, a reference to Treasure of the Sierra Madre. So you could see this as a reference to a reference ;)

[@christophergraham7194]

Actually, if you want to quote it it is- "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges! I don't have to show you any stinking badges!"

[@___---__]

By God, whatever some movie said, we don't need no stinking badgers.

[@mistabook]

GREAT movie.

[@troijy]

This is one of my Favorit pats of the movies! It also sad he died befire the movie was finished. R.I.P. Trinidad Silva thank you for that awesome quote.

[@CharlieSpring2022]

Also thanks for the clip of him teaching poodles how to fly. That scene always makes me laugh when I’m feeling blue.

[@TheMacKosh]

Turtles! Nature's suction cup!!

[@reachforthetop9]

There was apparently a bit written into the script where the poodles would take their revenge. Sadly, Silva died before it could be filmed.

[@Abandoned_Brane]

This cracks me up to no end. Such passion and such conviction is displayed here.

[@anothergamingchannel2656]

I really wish we would've got to see more of him in uhf. He originally played a bigger role in the movie but passed away while they were shooting the movie. They actually attempted to shoot his other scenes with a body double but weird al decided it didn't look right and also that it was disrespectful and had them rework the script to keep his original scenes he shot in the movie

[@MidnightMoses69]

A few years ago when UWis beat UKy for the ncaa bball championship I sent messages to my Ky friends saying "Badgers? Badgers! We don't beat no stinking Badgers!"...they didn't appreciate.

[@chrisleebowers]

It was another four years after I first saw this as a kid that I understood this reference...

[@noretreat151]

was in eight grade when our school was chosen to review a early release of this movie.... we all went to the cafeteria to watch and afterwards gave a opinion..... what a day!

[@jayreid8389]

Years ago in a teacher faculty meeting we were notified that the next year we'd have to wear badges. Yep. You guessed it. I couldn't help blurting out this line right after the principal told us.

[@fliegeroh]

Trinidad Silva was a great actor. Especially good in El Norte and Colors. He will be missed.

[@xSILENTALARM1]

Saw this movie last night... This line made me laugh for at least an hour!

[@mindujiman]

oi62.tinypic.com/s4p44h.jpg damn casuality xD

[@jasobres]

What's worse is that he didn't finish filming his scenes. He was supposed to be the delivery guy who sent Channel 8's package to U62 in the beginning and there was also supposed to be a scene where the poodles got their revenge on him. So those scenes ended up not being in the film at all.

[@mistabook]

this actor was hilarious. Some of the funniest stuff in the entire movie

[@richardcherrington5489]

It's a shame he got killed during production, he was going to have a bigger part in the film.

[@jjmanzano9]

Today we are going to teach poodles how to fly!

[@stevenbrown5210]

that clip should have won an Oscar

[@dropkickirish4449]

Of course it should have, because this is KZbin and you’re a trained monkey devoid of original creative thought. So, Oscar Oscar Oscar Oscar Oscar. Life’s tough, but people like you make it insufferable.

[@majorhemroid]

Dude, you couldn't get more perfect timing and delivery than this

[@reviathan3524]

It may be fun fact, but the animal deliveryman also voiced Bob Page from the Deus Ex franchise.

[@elizabethbercaw440]

Mel Brooks gave it his spin in his 1974 film Blazing Saddles. I heard it uttered by a journalist recently when talking about the Supreme Court. It is a part of our lexicon, even if we don’t know the origin. From the 1927 novel Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

[@scienceguy8]

Ever play the video game Deus Ex? The delivery guy is Cliff Stephens, who lent his voice to antagonist Bob Page, as well as a few other smaller characters in both the original and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

[@Chamozart]

This never gets old

[@WillyPete_]

Trinidad Silva’s death occurred during production of the 1989 "Weird Al" Yankovic film UHF. Parts of the film had to be rewritten since he had not finished filming his part. The film was dedicated to his memory.

[@kimmolaine8069]

Raul was meant to play a bigger part in the movie.

[@oyessman98]

I could watch this 1000 times and never get tired of it

[@altareggo]

THIS is what the internet was made for. Completely hilarious.

[@retardedmammal8965]

i got his off of imdb it's about him: Died in a car accident before filming all his scenes for the movie UHF (1989). The driver of the other vehicle pleaded guilty to drunken driving and vehicular manslaughter. Silva's wife and two-year old son suffered minor injuries in the accident. Has a dedication in the end credits of "UHF".

[@Frozenson]

I love that there's dramatic music playing during this scene

[@FilmDoctor42]

"What's he got against badgers?"? That question just cracks me up. I mean, how silly and obtuse can you be? Makes me laugh hilariously all over again about Mr. Silva and his perfect delivery. Always loved him in HILL STREET BLUES.

[@Semaj4747]

Maybe he's got too many badgers all ready. 😉

this is awesome when bsu beavers college hockey played the wisconsin badgers they showed this clip at the game it was a big hit!!

Classic lines in movies can be tracked down; this is why You Tube can still be a special tool, in spite of all it's other phucked up flaws in and on society.

[@NeuralNetProcessor]

His face is hilarious. This is like the best line of UHF lol

[@douglaskornreich5531]

I think the "Supplies" line is the best line -- but there are a lot to choose from!

My favourite is in the Conan The Librarian clip "doohnt yew know da dewey decimal system!" 😂

[@TheLotusManFILMs.]

UHF is funny as fuck.

[@CookieDTotR]

I didn't see Treasure of the Sierra Madre until years after I saw UHF (and Blazing Saddles, for that matter), but I thought this was bizarrely hilarious even before I knew what it was all about. Hilarious moment. So sad Trinidad Silva died right around when they were finishing this movie: he was one of the best things in it.

[@zanethomas6865]

They filmed a lot of this in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The apartment building isn't too far from the big Hillcrest Medical Center complex. I drove by there recently and they've repainted the exterior obviously in 35 years. You can see the Tulsa skyline a few blocks away from the front of the building.

[@Rabid-Pinocchio]

Best scene by a country mile from UFH was the kid on the horse and the fire hose. That scene is Farkin genius. If you haven't seen the movie UHF it is worth the watch for that scene alone. Cneers.

I think they even stated that in the commentary.

[@_PrimetimePranks]

Saw this in the theater. Knew the reference from both TotSM and Blazing Saddles. My buddy and I missed most of the next scene we were laughing so hard.

It's a joke. You would of had to seen a certain movie to understand the joke.

It should have been the delivery guy explaining he had no badgers: Badgers? We ain't got no badgers! We don't need no badgers! I don't have to show you any stinking badgers!

I remember watching this when it first came out...laughed myself sick. I remember thinking to myself at this very scene...I know what's coming, I just know what he's going to say and thinking don't do it, don't you do it...he did and I laughed till I had to stop from the pain.

I believe that was taken from a Blazing Saddles scene, where Mexican cowboys were offered badges to work for the bad guys. The leader said “Badges, we don’t need no stinkn badges”. 1974
