Favorite Mel Brooks movies

[J_Dee]

Only had room for ten of the eleven films that he directed on the poll. Life Stinks is his worst-reviewed work, so it was the one that got the axe. 💀

Blazing Saddles, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Spaceballs, and Young Frankenstein are my picks.

I've never seen High Anxiety, Silent Movie, or The Twelve Chairs, and I haven't seen The Producers or History of the World: Part I since I was a kid. I don't remember if I've seen Life Stinks.

Young Frankenstein. High Anxiety, Blazing Saddles and the Producers next.

You made a big, big mistake on the correct answer.
And just so I'm not that guy that makes you wait but am that guy that will point it out loudly. IT'S HISTORY OF THE WORLD PART 2!!! HISTORY OF THE WORLD PART 1 IS THE PIECE OF CRAP FOLLOW UP THEY DID LAST YEAR ON HULU MFER.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Blazing Saddles is far and away at the top.

Young Frankenstein second.

History third.

I didn't vote for a fourth.

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

Young Frankenstein

 

[HymanKaplan]

As great as Blazing Saddles was, Young Frankenstein is in a class by itself.

My bad! I haven't seen it in like 35 years. The only scenes I even remember is Moses breaking the Fifteen Commandments and the "Hitler on Ice" thing at the end, and Gregory Hines as Roman. XD

I'm gonna try to watch High Anxiety sometime soon.

As long as you agree this is any funny as anything in Young Frankenstein.
And "you got to let the coolness get into your vertebrae" is a seriously underrated line.

"You go northward. You go southward. I'm gonna walk in a circle."

"Do you care if it falls?"
"What?"
"The Roman Empire"
" F%#& it"

That's great. XD

This is my current favorite scene from a Mel Brooks movie:

 

[Dncmaxwell]

If Bazing Saddles isn’t your #1, you are wrong. Lotta good ones after that, but cannot under rate the Producers. Purposely trying to sink a movie by creating a musical called “Spring time for Hitler”…no one else could do it…

Ditto.

Life Stinks Stunk…

I don't have four favorite Mel Brooks movies, but I certainly think three of them are great -- the original "The Producers," "Blazing Saddles," and "Young Frankenstein." To me, the rest are just OK.

If you’ve seen a lot of Alfred Hitchcock movies and liked them, High Anxiety is pretty funny. If you haven’t,….

 

[*CatinIL*]

Blazing Saddles for me.
