"But I shoot with this hand!"
« on: August 29, 2016, 03:46:15 PM »
It looks like the Waco Kid has ridden off into the sunset.

"What do you do for fun around here?"

"Play chess... screw."

"Well, let's play chess, then."

And of course, as Gene reaches that last door, he'll turn back with an evil grin, and say...

"Bluecher!"

Neeehhhhhhh!

I enjoyed all of his performances... even Willy Wonka. I still do even after seeing them multiple times.

Another actor who's movies you could take your mother or children to.  Proof that entertainment and "class" CAN be used in the same sentence.  He will be missed.

Blazing Saddles, The Producers and Young Frankenstein are ALL the greatest American Comedy ever, not arguable.  Second place are Spaceballs (Yes!  Ludicrous speed!) and History Of The World Part I (It's good to be the king.  The jig is up!), which didn't have Gene Wilder.

All depends on the child - and the parent! After all, my Grandma used to sing little nursery rhymes to us when we were small, things like:

"Here comes Peter Cottontail, hoppin' down the bunny trail - crippled!" and

"You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm tellin' you why - Santa Claus is dead."

Come to think of it, maybe that's why I have the sense of humor I do  :rolleyes:

His nephew said that he was holding hands with relatives when his favorite singer Ella Fitzgerald came on random play "Over the Rainbow" and he passed.

As long as they kill the honky in the end, it's all good.... :wink:  I think another Blazing Saddles would do a lot of good these days. We all need to breathe a little.

 I would mention the completely ridiculous lone ranger movie as anothet example , but it was so bad it was hard to figure out just who was being insulted . My point is that non PC movies still get made , although none are as brilliant as Blazzing Saddles  :laugh:

"Silver Streak", "Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother", "Stir Crazy", "Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex" and all the great films ya'll already named...an incredible body of work. His rendition of "Pure Imagination" from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" is just magic. Godspeed, Gene...

Hell, I saw blazing saddles @ the drive in when I was 12 I turned out OK, well kinda. Political correctness has gone too far. Can't even tell a joke any more. Don rickles is one of the funniest men to ever crack a joke. He didn't pick on anyone, he made fun of everyone! Long live Mel Brooks too! wW II vet battle of the bulge! It doesn't get any more 'merican than that!! We need to laugh at ourselves and quit whining!
