...just saw it all the way through a few weeks ago and man, what a movie.
Tarantino's Jackie Brown is seriously under-rated IMO.
Airplane! is one of my favorites, enough that I ordered Zero Hour from Netflix. Had to see it for myself.
Mel Brooks...hit or miss. I like Blazing Saddles the best probably because Richard Pryor wrote a large part of the screenplay. Young Frankenstein, Brooks produced that movie but Gene Wilder directed it. But I'm not so hot on The Producers and you can burn every copy of Spaceballs, History of the World Part II, and Robin Hood: Men in Tights for all I care. High Anxiety benefits from Cloris Leachman and Harvey Korman.
The movie Young Frankenstein is satirizing is Son of Frankenstein, by the way and it's a don't miss just for the sets alone. The main fireplace in Frankenstein's castle looks like Henry VIII's kitchen at Hampton Court.
IMO, Hollywood is spent. Movies are almost entirely the same stories told over and over again. Give the audience what it knows and is comfortable with. All you need to see is the trailer.
And they're all far too long. There's no reason for a 2 hour, 30 minute run time when the story that could be told in a little over an hour.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
