Blazing Saddles isn't even the best Gene Wilder movie of 1974....Young Frankenstein! Don't forget that 1974 also saw the best of the Godfather movies (part 2) and my personal favorite Bond film (and video game) Man with the Golden Gun.

Gotta disagree on Young Frank over Blazing Saddles, the latter is much funnier. Wilder was in some other funny movies too and his memoir was quite, uh, explicit. He told it like it happened, warts and all.

Lili Von Shtupp (Madeline Kahn) quotes were classic.

And, don't forget Alex Karras'......"Mongo only pawn....in game of life"


Speaking about Karras......TRIVIA ? ......

He nearly achieved something no other Tackle has ever....what is it ?

"Karras nearly achieved something no other Tackle has ever....what is it ?"

I'll take a shot at it, Ted. He was runner up for the Heisman Trophy.

Or, he was almost related to you since you both have Greek names

I agree that Wilder's performance was better in Saddles, but as far as the movies themselves go, Marty Feldman's performance in Young Frank made all the difference for me. We should start a poll on which movie is better. Maybe I'm in the minority...

Your answer......"I'll take a shot at it, Ted. He was runner up for the Heisman Trophy."

Bulls-eye......good shooting.

Blazing Saddles is one of the best comedic movies of all times, imo. One of my favorites.
