Version of blazing saddles
Blazing saddles is a classic movie. Mel Brooks and the writers dared to use the N-word in this movie a lot but the outcome is that the black sheriff becomes the favorite. This version is unedited so unlike the ones you might see on TV that cut out all the lines that make the movie work. This addition also includes Mel Brooks talking about making of and scenes never used in the movie Even the original TV version called Black Bart While finishing blazing saddles, Gene Wilder and mail books came up with the idea of making young Frankenstein and some of the same cast move over to make the next hilariously funny Brooks movie Read full review

first movie where farting was part of the scrip
one of Mel Brooks funniest movies ever, with a racial twist, but in a humorous touch the actors enjoyed making the movie and still comment about it today. it is a mixed spoof of several, western movie icons, and santeros, you couldn't make a movie like it today, the language and slurs, about racism, are not acceptable by today'sb standards, but it is one of the best comedies' ever made .Read full review

I love Mel Brooks!
I do think this movie was hated by the "oh so called educated elites " but Brooks said let's show this to the everyday common folks who are the majority of the population. He was right. There are so many jokes and funny jabs that only Brooks can say and do that will make you laugh so hard. I'm a girl but I loved the campfire scene so much that I still laugh out loud to this day. There is some history in this movie and if you don't know it you will miss the reason why there is a joke about the Irish in the movie. The lawyers in the 60s and 70s called it a technically which allowed them(60s and 70s) to get away with murder. It is always fun to learn about the making of the movie and about all the great people who played a role in the writing and their comedic skills. This movie is a great classic. Read full review

Great movies when people actually could laugh at themselves.
Blazing Saddles is one of my family's favorite movies. Actually, we love all of Mel Brooks movies and have been collecting them.

Classic
Love The Movie. Wanted to get it before the cancel culture has it removed from society. Richard Pryor wanted the lead but had commitments. Love it.

Blazing Saddles roasts the movie western, and the horses they rode in on.Black lives matter!
I knew it had classic racism, but it had to be made at that point in our history. It was great to learn that Richard Prior had been one of the writers.

Mel Brooks is the best. So not politically correct and I love it. Just what I needed these days.
Funniest movie of all time. Thank you!

Blazing Saddles 30th Anniversary DVD w/Madeline Kahn featurette
On the 30th anniversary of this film, this DVD talks about the making of the film and includes a feature about the late and great Madeline Kahn - she received an Academy Award nomination for this, the second movie she made. Yes, for a comedy. The features are a mixed bag; they include scenes re-edited for television and director commentary, but also includes is the TV pilot for a spin-off, "Black Bart", not starring Cleavon Little. Btw - Gene Wilder wasn't the first choice for the Waco Kid. Mel wanted Gene to play the role of Hedley Lamarr. What a different movie that would have been!Read full review
