Do you like ANY Mel Brooks movie? Zucker Brothers?

[–] arniegeddon@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Of course. The Mel Brooks films with Gene Wilder are classics. I can quote Airplane and Naked Gun until the cows come home. Just find Spaceballs pretty much unwatchable. Just my opinion!

It hasn't aged as well as I think people remember. Did you see it when it came out?

[–] arniegeddon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Definitely agree with that. Probably first saw it on VHS a few years after it came out.

I mean when comparing Spaceballs to Young Frankenstein or Blazing Saddles, I can see the argument for it not being great.

It is definitely not one of his better movies.

I still kind of like it though and I will support almost any Mel Brooks vehicle. At least just for the off chance we get another glorious movie like Blazing Saddles.
