Lets kill every oldest son, nah too jewish.
Maybe this has been on cable way too much, or times have changes, but this just is not as funny as i remember it being. True, it could never be made today given the racial sensitivity of our PC era, but some of the jokes are just not all that funny. That said, Slim Pickens is the best part of this whole movie, every scene with him still shines.
January 8, 2009I bought this movie for my husband's birthday, and he loves it. Amazon was fast, inexpensive and easy to use.

I didn't have high expectations for picture/sound quality of Blazing Saddles on blu-ray. I mean, it's such an old movie, how good could it be?
I was actually shocked to find it has excellent picture quality ...amazing picture quality, considering the movie was filmed in 1974! The edges are sharp, the colors are rich, I have never seen Blazing Saddles like this before. The audio is also very good.
If you're a Mel Brooks fan, this one is well worth getting on blu-ray.

You can't go wrong having this movie in your collection. It is funny every time you watch it.
December 17, 2008This movie is just as funny as it was when it first came out over 30 yrs ago. I decided to get the DVD after several years of having 1 liners from the movie coming up in casual conversation. This is a classic and only Mel Brooks could produce a movie that mocks racism this way. Executive at studios today would probably be afraid to release a movie like this.
