Mel Brooks always co-stars with sibling midgets

~Once again, we dare you to find a Mel Brooks movie where cleavage isn't in one of the starring roles. We double-butted dog dare you and the horse you rode in on to find one Mel Brooks movie-no wait...If there is one, then I don't want to know about it...I happen to like the norm on this one. Hey, when's he coming out with another movie? (By the way, that's Mel in the middle with Harvey Korman on the left and ...three people I don't know on the right.)


JD's quotes:

Today's quote is from the film accredited with having the first ever flatulence scene in the history of movies and good for them doggone it! The movie was Blazing Saddles and starred Gene Wilder, Cleavon Little, Harvey Korman, Mel Brooks and a few others. Here's a quote from Mel and Harvey in the very scene pictured above:

Harvey Korman as Attorney General Hedley Lamarr(Not to be confused with Hedy Lamarr, ha ha ha): Just one more bill for you to sign sir.
Mel Brooks as Governor William J. Le Petomane: What the hell is this?
Lamarr: This is the bill that will convert the state hospital for the insane into the ''William J. Le Petomane Memorial Gambling Casino for the Insane.''
Governor Le Petomane: Gentleman, this bill will be a giant step forward in the treatment, of the insane gambler.

Talk about an accurately portrayed government. I want to share another thing with you. Well,...Brooks named his character after a somewhat famous person...check out that famous person's history here: Le Pétomane - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia~Enjoy that.

How dare you imply the British aren't the horndogs we all know they are!

~I dare you to find a Mel Brooks movie that doesn't involve any cleavage...I outright dare you.



JD'S quotes:

Let's take a look back at the Mel Brooks parody of Bram Stoker's Dracula called Dracula: Dead and loving it. Here are some of the bits that stayed with me:


1.
Mark Blankfield as Martin: Oh, McManus, the patient in the west wing?
Harvey Korman as Dr. Seward: Yes.
Martin: He's having a conniption fit
Dr. Seward: Oh, give 'em an enema
Martin: ...An enema?
Dr. Seward: Yes. It'll give him a feeling of accomplishment

2. Dr. Seward: Oh, Count Dracula, allow me to introduce Professor Abraham Van Helsing of London University. He is a doctor of rare diseases as well as theology and philosophy.
Mel Brooks as Professor Van Helsing: And Gynecology
Dr. Seward: Oh, I didn't know you had your hand in that too.


3. Steven Weber as Jonathan Harker: Are you saying that Count Dracula is our vampire?
Van Helsing: Yes...and no.
Harker: Then what are you saying?
Van Helsing: I'm saying no,...but I'm leeeaning towards yes.
Dr. Seward: Then you're saying yes.
Van Helsing: No.
Dr. Seward: Then it's no.
Van Helsing: Not necessarily.
Harker: You sound dubious.
Van Helsing: No, I'm positive.
Harker: Of what?
Van Helsing: My theory!
Harker: And that would be?
Van Helsing: The theory of yes...or no.



4. Lysette Anthony as Lucy: Jonathan, let me kiss you. Let me show you the deep, raw, passionate, unbridled, sexual frenzy.
Jonathan Harker: Eh-eh, but Lucy,... I'm British.
