Oh, the levels of humor went so deep. At the time, I thought Brooks was crude and unsophisticated, but my God, the man's humor has withstood the test of time (though it wouldn't withstand the test of woke culture).

Harrumph

Very good suggestion 😂😂

I still use that on those nights when I’ve been drinking and got try to get the key in the door. “Think of your secretary!”

My favorite line in the whole movie!

Watched this movie so many times and it’s the first time I’ve heard this line. And it’s a bloody good one too!

Wouldnt we all

And let's not forget Woody Allen's films. Me and my mates just lived for the run of brilliant films of the late 1970s.

I tried to like woody Allen but just couldn’t get into this humor. He just comes across as a bit pretentious. Just my opinion. Mel Brooks was more of a common man’s film maker.

Both in one night, my god man that’s enough to make someone die laughing!!!

So that was her name. I never watched in the credits.

Amazing AND fitting that she was born in Twin Falls, Idaho.

Did anyone get to see her face?

@@sabatino1977 I wouldn't have been offended true fans don't get offended by much, now "excuse me while I whip this out". Greetings from NZ 🇳🇿

I want to believe Harvey Korman improvised the line, given Mel's reaction. But we are dealing with a film written by comedic gods so i could be wrong.

The world seems to have forgotten the plight of the insane gambler.

Well put!

Only one that matches it is Airplane...

You'd think, but then they made Django Unchained.

@@amberscion1513 Sorry, I've never seen that movie. I like comedies. And, today we have the PC police that would loose their minds if someone made a movie like this today. I think:)

@@dougyates7218 Well while Django Unchained isn't a comedy it does have a lot of comedic scenes, such as the proto-klansmen having issues seeing out of their hoods. It pokes *huge* fun at racists, with almost all of them being nigh unintelligible ignoramuses, while the blacks are all perfectly easy to understand. So it's a slightly more subtle humor. But the "n word" is said about 10,000 times in the movie, so yeah, not much of a PC favorite lol.

@@amberscion1513 Thank you.

@@dougyates7218 there isn’t the reason to make this movie today. It was poking fun at the dearth of black actors being roles in Hollywood

@@Remote-Planet men of culture gather in many places.

*Hedy and that's a paddle ball.

You have it out of order. He put it in there because it's a funny gag. She threatened to sue after the film became a success - Warner wanted to fight it, Brooks said pay her off because she was a great Hollywood actress and deserved it. They reached an amicable agreement.

@@jkorshak She also invented frequency hopping, which is used by basically everyone in the 1st world everyday: she deserved every penny she ever got.

@@JonathanHochman1 Yes and she also thereby created one of the weirdest factoids to sporadically appear on the internet.

@@tomhaskett5161 Digital Spread Spectrum.

Exactly. The movie is the best scene. This movie should be played unedited to all tic toc users to vanquish that ilk from society

@@Everythingis22 I can give you a couple of reasons why this is the best scene.

Like this scene but my favourite is the camp fire scene

Campdown ladies scene 🤣😂😆😅🤣😂😅😁😄😅🤣

the arrival of the new sheriff is the best scene lol

I'm ashamed of how long it took me to notice that joke.

and the Gov responds, " good suggestion!"

Who wouldn't want to bang Ms. Stein?😉👍

Aren’t all pens phallic?

Not quite as good as Korman and Conway, but still hilarious!

As the son of Harvey Korman considering dad did 4 films with mel its astounding they didn't do more together. I myself preferred my father with Mel over Conway because I find breaking up highly unproffesssional .I didn't mind conway breaking up my father once in awhile but Tim did it more then he should have but again I'm biase.I think my father could prove in movies with Mel and other actors that he could be more then a straigthman for conway.My dad was a classically trained actor from Goodman theatre who could it all.For me personally Dads best work was with Carol and Mel but thats just me.

@@chriskorman6565 wow, thank you. your dad will truly never be forgotten. his work only grows more valuable.

@@chriskorman6565 Nobody, NOBODY, played a sex-crazed lunatic as well as your Dad. I love every single thing he said and did in Blazing Saddles and History of the World Part I, and also in Dracula: Dead and Loving It. I particularly love his laugh in Blazing Saddles - the way it builds from a giggle to a laugh and then a choke. and “That was a close one! Daddy loves Froggy. Froggy love Daddy? Ribbit… Ribbit”.

@@chriskorman6565 No one could urinate themself in a dentist chair like your dad. Conway's story about the siamese elephants joined at the trunk was hyterical, but when Vicki Lawrence destroyed him with one off-the-cuff straight line was priceless.

WELL QUITE--I'm amazed to learn that this BRILLIANT film, isn't entirely BANNED. The Woke -SHITES have gone too far already, and removed the Balls of Execs on TV altogether.

Yes, even beats Airplane.

@@ronfriedman8740 "it's pronounced, 'eye-gore""

I agree. I would add The Producers with Mostel, Wilder, Mars and Shawn. An absolute classic. Didn't care for the remake with Lane and Broderick. It made me cringe.

I would also add History of the World, Part I to the mix. I'm always telling folks It's great to be the King. That being said, I have a hard time trying to put them in any sort of 1, 2, 3 order.

@@ronfriedman8740 I'm always quoting the Walk this way routine.

Let's face it, everything below the waist, is kaput!

wilder said kahn was the best actress he had worked with ! her dietrich take is one of the great female performances ever caught on the silver screen... brooks got a tad too saucy with her at casting causing her to nearly decline the part........ a much missed woman

I liked the Producers so much, it was the first VHS video tape I bought. This was months before the family acquired a video cassette player!

That work work work part was brilliant.

He still is a genius. Now in his nineties and still looking good.👏👏👏

Professional flatulist. That is a good one. Did not know that tidbit until today!

The Governor's name was Mel's silent but deadliest joke.

Agreed! Just to think of that it shouldn’t be as funny as it is. Genius!

Robsay; you are Indian you say but of what tribe please? I support and always have my indigenous American friends.

@@paul16451 I know that. I was talking about when he was making movies and acting in them. He was funny as hell and his movies are legendary. But unfortunately you just don’t hear from him that much nowadays tho!

Apparently he is making History Of The World Part 2

Not allowed to

Zulu this is C.Korman son of Harvey Korman thank you for that nice comment about my dad.I miss his work with mel and carol burnett the most.The werewolf scene in HAnxiety to me is as funny as the office scene in BSaddles.

He was risking an Academy Award nomination.

That's Headly!

He didn't have Tim Conway to crack him up in this.

He also had a very distinctive voice

Followed closely by “Young Frankenstein.”

They never made them like this... It was a single one and done. Never before and never again!

@@jdgindustries2734 One word: AIRPLANE!

She evidently sued when she heard that her name was being (sort of) used for one of the characters before the movie even came out -- which you sorta have to know to understand the "this is 1874, you'll be able to sue HER" line, evidently added to the script after her lawsuit was filed.

Hey boys, looky what I got over here!.....where are all the white women at? 😂

atleast for now hes still alive, so "is" a genius

Think I saw he's currently working on a "History Of The World" TV series.

Good to know.

The translation would be "flatulist".

It was made famous by Joseph Pujol (pronounced Pu-hole) who took it as his stage name Le Petomane in the late 1800's

@@DMNDR Although I’m French and new the French word “pétomane”, I’d never heard of Joseph Pujol - aka The Flatulist. I love your pronunciation of his name as “poo hole”! Alas, that’s not at all how it’s pronounced. That said, the first syllable of Pujol is pronounced as the French verb “stinks” … so it’s still within the scatological realm of both your joke and of the entertainer’s talent!
