OMG, I still can not stop laughing at the stupid lines in Blazing Saddles.
LIke when the really stupid cowboy character sees the Chinese worker faint while working on the railroad (chinese slaves built much of the railroads out west), he said, "Dock that Chink a days pay for nappin' on the job!" I was like.... then !!!!! That shit was way, way, waaaaayyyyy beyond edgy for it's time and even for now. | |

I haven't seen it forever, I should just go ahead and buy it Kinda sad that a movie like that would probably never be made in today's overly PC society The "Scary Movie"-esque movies they're been making just aren't the same (tho Not Another Teen Movie did come close, IMO) Facebook, I haz it - https://www.facebook.com/Nikster1969

Don't you have to pay for your own star? How silly and conceited. I guess when you're homing in on death you want to press down a little harder on your foot. | |

They usually don't pay for their own star, but fan clubs and other organizations, like a charity might get one for a celebrity who has done a lot of work for them, for example, will get them one so it IS still kinda earned. .

Mel's History of the World was funny up until the French Revolution, and then it lost it's edge, and went into a lull. | |

OMG, one of my favorite lines was in the French Revolution scene!!! "We don't even have our own language!! Just this stupid accent!" x forever!!! I also like the "Don't get saucy with me" line that takes place before everybody 'humps' the queen. | |

Bishop jumps queen! Pawns jump queen! Gangbang! "Count Da Money!" De Monet! Say it... Mo - nay! Say it with me, Mo - nay! I liked when he sniffs a little blow, and says "Everything's so greeeeen."
