Another good suggestion MAE, thank you. I watched Young Frankenstein and had some great laughs. Gene Wilder and Terri Garr sure made for a great romantic comedy team (excellent screen chemistry and timing). And I almost died laughing during the scene when Gene Hackman spilled the soup in Peter Boyle's lap. Not to mention how Marty Feldman's Igor had me chuckling almost nonstop throughout the entire movie. I could go on and on. Good one! Thanks.
Hi ho, hi ho, it's back to the "MTV Madness Music Video Marathon" I go.

It's hilarious. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Now I have to do a Mel Brooks movie marathon. I Had a great time, thanks MAE and John.
Blazing Saddles is Mel Brooks at his best. I'm glad that you enjoyed it and I'm glad that I played a small part in getting you to watch it. You should probably watch Young Frankenstein and maybe The Producers (either one or both), if you haven't already seen that, but other than that, I wouldn't recommend a lot of the movies MB did following Saddles and Frankenstein. Most of them were quite disappointing.

Heck I don't even know if Mel Brooks would have a career if he were to make many of his movies today.
Good god Teri Garr was hot in the day..
Even better she had great comedic timing too.

Tusk, I would agree with you regarding Mel Brooks career. In fact, I was a little surprised when The Producers had its big revival a few years back.
I also agree with you in regards toTeri Garr. I always wondered why she didn't make "leading lady" status in comedies -- she certainly had both the looks and the great timing. I loved her in Tootsie -- she just had a small part, but was oh so good. (Of course, I loved Bill Murray in that show as well.)

Bangles fan here, but I have to admit that Susanna Hoffs, while cute, wasn't my cuppa of the group. I was into the guitars then, and maybe why I was more on the Vicki Peterson camp........and HOLY FULL CIRCLE LovinDa, with your 'Runaways' posts (Joan Jett et al), my favorite Bangles' song was sung by Michael Steele formerly offfffff...... (drum roll)....
THE RUNAWAYS!!!
That band didn't get the recognition for their music as they should. They were more viewed as a gimmick..."a girl band".... If I remember they were compared alot with the Go Go's but their music was more rock oriented where the Go Go's were pop... "Hazy Shade of Winter" from the movie "Less than Zero" might have been their pinnacle
Love that guitar riff
