BLAZING SADDLES is still popular, though. It seems to be his most popular movie with today's generation.

From his earliest effort to his latest, he remains a genius. This is where he is different from other, run-of-the-mill comics like Adam Sandler or Eddie Murphy, or SNL or anything like that- because Brooks' really knows what is funny. Even in his first film, he makes us laugh at something in bad taste. His comedy is unique because while it is in bad taste, he somehow makes us feel good. Without a doubt, he has made more people laugh than any one else. Mel Brooks is the undisputed comedy genius of the latter half of this century. Sometimes, I think that the film gets mean-spirited, and that is when it isn't funny anymore. It is a telling of the movie complete with MANY photographs taken from the film. I own the book written by Mel Brooks in 1981. It's a miracle that it gets shown on TV (even in a censored version). My personal feeling is that HISTORY OF THE WORLD-PART 1 succeeds as being so hilarious due to the fact that it is so incredibly crude. To me, it's funnier than, say SILENT MOVIE or HIGH ANXIETY, but not as good as BLAZING SADDLES or maybe YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. There's a little something to offend everyone in this hilarious history lesson, with some personal research by Mel Brooks.
