Is it my imagination or does Hollywood almost not even bother making comedies anymore?  I look at the movie listings for the theaters week after week and it seems like comedies are few and far between.

Nobody knows how to lighten up anymore.  And people think we are not headed for a civil war?

They don’t make Mel brooks films that’s for sure.

It shows two. He appeared as another character. Anyone?

They’re just the same humorless twats that became the authoritarians of the past...given a little time they’d be perfect targets for Brooks’ satire. Ironic, eh?

Cool Starry Bra time.

About 10 years ago, when I first started working the job I work now, I was on a sort of engineering/technician crew that did field repairs on items. We were a crew of about 6 people, all friendly and various ages. We would randomly joke around and quote Blazing Saddles, among other movies. No punches were pulled on quotes either. One day, I guess a snowflake was walking through our work floor and reported the conversation he heard to our manager.  We all got a talking to and the site diversity officer was relieved of duty... mostly because the site diversity officer was one of the guys on our crew .

Ever since, there's been a standing rule in the assembly area, "No Quoting Blazing Saddles".

Great movie.

He had the same recoiling type of response to  it as the author of the article did.  He understood it was a satire but he just couldnt get past the language.

I have not seen a non-censored version in years.  I hate it when someone says "Sing us one of them ________________ work songs."
Non-censored it is one of the top 5 funny movies.

You'd do it for Randolph Scott.

Never knew that. Also, possibly a fourth. In the movie theater as Harvey Korman is getting in to sit down, a character already sitting says, "hey, watch it there, hey you." It is definately Mel's voice...

Must be a sad life to be of such moral superiority that you can't even laugh at Mel Brooks.

If nothing else, the guy has been fairly equal opportunity at who he poked fun.
