Which is his best?

kpkelley · 05-23-2008, 08:47 PM

The Producers and Young Frankenstein are two of my favorite comedies.

Moefiz · 05-23-2008, 08:48 PM

Spaceballs....

Secretagentnumber6 · 05-23-2008, 08:48 PM

Blazing Saddles followed closely by Young Frankenstein. I do love the rest of them though, with the exception of Dracula.

BruceWayne · 05-23-2008, 08:49 PM

Spaceballs and Young Frankenstein are a tie for me... Schultzy has been busy with the polls...

RickD · 05-23-2008, 08:51 PM

Overall, I like Spaceballs the best, but Brooks has made a lot of great movies.

History of the World, Part I and Blazing Saddles are my runner ups.

If you only knew!

I go Young Frankenstein, followed by Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles. History is a distant 4th.

Arg!

Should be allowed to vote twice.

I'd vote for Frankenstein and "Not Speed Racer"

Take THAT wackoffski brothers!

The Producers remake (Nathan lane, Matthew Broderick, Uma Thurman et al.). An absolute scream

JasonR · 05-24-2008, 12:53 AM

Spaceballs

Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein both are great flicks.

darkpoet25 · 05-24-2008, 01:08 AM

Oh man Mel Brooks is a genius. I love Blazing Saddles, Clevon Little(may he rest in peace), Gene Wilder, Madalyn Kahn(RIP as well), Alex Keras(Mongo is a great character), and Harvey Corman(It's Headly!). True classic. I also like Spaceballs, Robin Hood Men In Tights, and Young Frankenstein. I hope we get more of his great, classic films come out on Blu.

Young Frankenstein. Brilliant!

GreenFlash06 · 05-24-2008, 02:29 AM

I've only seen Robin Hood: Men in Tights and Spaceballs and these were good. I have been wanting to see Blazing Saddles because you guys are always saying its really good and of course its on Blu-Ray. If anybody wants to send me a copy I'll gladly accept.jk
