And it makes fun of Germans (as all movies do).
Whoopi is so stupid in many many ways. Glad she is taking a stand on this important issue.
Yeah, but the younger generations don't get that. Pity.
“Funny, she doesn’t LOOK Druish.” — Mel Brooks.
So many funny scenes in that movie.

Black comedy? Racists.
Recently the film was remade as Paws of Fury
The Legend of Hank, animated. Dog in a city of cats. Brooks as a lovable goofball. Samuel L Jackson as a suomo cat: “What the
motherfather cockerspaniel is going on here?” They made sure that was in the ad.
Film a bit toned down in humor but Brooks
credited as producer, co writer. To be PC the definitely gay George Takei does a voice. Oh myyyy...
It was super woke at the time.
Wokeness and what’s progressive changes all the time.
In a visit on the Tonight Show in the early 80s Brooks said he couldn’t make the movie in that time period. That was about 10 years or so after the movie was released.
The test would be to remake the film exactly like the first film. Just because Whoppi believes that it’s not racist doesn’t mean a million other race agitators don’t either.
I have a friend. Huge black guy. He loves the movie and even wears the William J. Le Petomane Thruway T-shirt.
“I made a point of getting the dvd for this a decade ago because I figured it would eventually be banned or heavily edited. Probably the funniest movie of all time.”
An edited version of “Blazing Saddles” will be aired on NBC tomorrow evening. It will be broadcast from 8 p.m. to 8:02 p.m.
"Oh, Prairie Sh!t...everybody."
Some people just need to grow a sense of humor. They need to stop taking themselves so seriously, stop trying to be offended, and in general, just lighten up.

With 1:58 of advertising.
Blazing Saddles isn’t panned because it’s racist - even a fool like whoopsie can see that it mocks racism. Blazing Saddles is panned because it’s quite possible the funniest movie ever made, and today’s woketards can’t abide anything funny.
