Best Mel Brooks film?

[GreenPartyVoter]

[Arkana]

1. Robin Hood: Men In Tights

"You gotta be a MAN to wear tights!"

[Wickerman]

2. Blazing Saddles is my favorite

Don't know if that is the best.

Howard Johnson is Right!

[Marnieworld]

11. Lily Von Schtup!

Was there ever a better character?

"Oh it's twue! It's TWUE!"

[NoPasaran]

3. The Producers

Blazing Saddles a close second.

[BigMcLargehuge]

10. another vote for The Producers

[tjwash]

23. Make that three for "The Producers'

Zero Mostel's best film role...

[truebrit71]

4. Toss up between Blazing Saddles and....

History of the World Part I....

Either one still has me in stitches anytime I watch them....

"Stampeding cattle? That doesn't sound that bad..."

"..through the Vatican?"

"Hmmm, kinky...."

[Richardo]

5. "The Producers" by a mile

[terrya]

13. "The Producers" by 10.56 miles!

Ok, maybe that's not an accurate measurement. :-)

But it is his best film.

AND...we'll now have the pleasure to see a film based on a hit Broadway musical based on the original film!

[Richardo]

15. I'm afraid I'm a purist - I'll miss Zero Mostel

One of the funniest actors EVER.

[NoPasaran]

20. Dick Shawn as L.S.D./Hitler

"I lieb you baby, I lieb you."

[Richardo]

25. HAHAHAHAHA!

Director: "The fuhrer does not say "Achtung, baby."

[Laughing Mirror]

24. I'm with you Richardo

Zero was a marvel wasn't he. Did you ever see him in the Hot Rock?

[Richardo]

26. Yes - but my favorite role was Pseudelus in "Forum"

As the soothsayer: "You have....a child. No, TWO childs. A big, strong boy.....and a strange little boy. No...aaaaiaaiaia a girl! A girl!"

"A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" is in my top 5 funniest movies ever.

[Laughing Mirror]

27. Forum was flawless, yes

I wish there was some real comic alive today that would totally destroy me in his mad infectious delirium, the way Zero did, but I don't know of one.

[terrya]

32. And that was yet another role Nathan Lane took over from Zero Mostel.

"Forum" "The Producers"

I suspect that Nathan Lane will be doing "Fiddler on the Roof" eventually. :-)

6. Tie: Blazing Saddles/Young Frankenstein

or is it Fronk-en-steen?

[progressoid]

18. Yep, its a tie between these two

[ImpeachBush]

7. Young Frankenstein is a classic.

[Marnieworld]

8. History of the World Part 1

"King you look like the piss boy." "Well you look like a bucket of shit!"

The musical # for the Spanish Inquisition is how I learned about it. I love Mel.

Blazing Saddles too. But you can't forget Young Frankenstein.

[CornField]

31. Yep!

[Cooley Hurd]

9. I've always been fond of "High Anxiety"

[fudge stripe cookays]

16. I ADORE High Anxiety.

"HERE'S YOU PAPER! HERE'S YOUR PAPER!" is still a huge line at our house.
