The actors would read the script and they'd be like "Hey, this is just Blazing Saddles, it's already a movie."

They literally made an animal version of it last year. I had the unfortunate date of actually watching it and hating it.

Imagine a family friendly version of Blazing Saddles, instead they are all animals and the setting is Japan. Also all the jokes that were funny in the original becomes unfunny in this newer version. That's basically the movie I watched with my nephew lol.

Every movie starring a black person gets immediately called "WOKE" with calls to ban/boycott it today, oftentimes from the very same people lamenting that Blazing Saddles couldn't get made today because everything's supposedly too PC.

In this case, you couldnt make it again because the thing it was created to kill (the civilized TV western) is already dead.

My point is that the joke TC made doesn't work in modern Hollywood, if anything it being a movie that already exists and was well received increases the odds of people wanting to make it again.

I actually just watched this whole thing and quite enjoyed it. As a side note I watch a lot of those wholesome westerns from the 50s and 60s and while they can almost be parodies themselves I quite enjoy them. I enjoyed them as a kid 40 years ago and still enjoy them to this day.

Its by far my favorite genre and I wish more were made today. Not to the saturation point it was back then but a modern series of two regularly would be nice. Anyway great video.

I like that. Puts into much better words of what I've tried to explain to people before who have said that.

Anyway you can make Blazing Saddles today.

You make it animated, make it about samurai instead of cowboys and make the whole cast cats and dogs.

And make it really really bad.

One thing this video glosses over is that there are a ton of movies and shows over the years that skewer racism in a similar way to Blazing Saddles

the thing is, the conservative snowflakes that make the claim are media illiterate and so that aspect of blazing saddles goes over their head

The only good thing I will say is that it's well animated, so sucks for the animators who put actual talent into such a mediocre movie.

A lot of the most beloved westerns are just western ripoffs of Akira Kurosawa movies, and Star Wars was basically just Lucas ripping off Dune and Kurosawa lol.
