Thanks again, OUC!
There is always a butt to a joke, and nothing is funny unless a little bit true. Anything that is above ridicule (religion is often an excellent example) is part of the problem.
You can make fun of dads, moms, children, white people dancing. When fat kids/people, Asian drivers, black people, trans, gay, et al are "off the menu", they are religion, and it is THE problem.
We need to get to the point where everyone can.
Like everything else these days: are they just plain STUPID or criminally complicit?
As for Blazing Saddles, I never heard my now deceased dad laugh so hard and it was the last movie I ever attended inside a theater with my father and all my four brothers(one now deceased) when staying overnight at a motel in Tuscaloosa to see an Alabama home football game the next day during the Seventies.
It's obvious why Blazing Saddles cannot--not does not need to be remade. It would be so--wah wah--snowflake offensive even though I saw that Mel Brooks gag fest again on TV last night
Three fairly recent movies that should not have been remade is The Magnificent Seven, True Grit and The Fog. None lived up to the originals. That wow special effects treat King Kong is an exception. I have both DVDs.
As for sequels, IMO, those that followed uproarious Smokey and The Bandit were all stinkers. Glad I've only seen bits and parts of those sequels on TV.
Now you got me dino panties all in a wad!
Bottom row, me dino said! Bottom row, ding dong dang dab nab it!
For example, my display has all the items in only one row because I have a wide screen display (2560x1440.)
Had to look up my moniker to say I've always come to The Gulch for my entire 9 years and 9 months only using my home PC.
The only reason old-fashioned dino has an iPhone is because it transmits enhanced sound to my hearing aids.
I've long learned SIRI can be useful when I get lost or need help getting somewhere.
People who keep their faces glued to cell phone screens, such as my granddaughter's boyfriend, can get on my nerves.
I'd hate to explain to police that "He racked a round with his cell phone."
I heard a rubber band
I seen a needle that winked its eye
I just about seen everything,
when I see an elephant fly!
Perhaps you heard it. Let me know if you have.
Myself born in 1947, I have no idea how far and wide it went or if it completely died out but here it goes~~
Birdie, birdie, in the sky,
Why'd you do that in my eye?
Me no cuss, me no cry.
Me just glad that cow don't fly.
I'd look it up but a Bama game is about to start.
I'm thinking Tennessee may beat us this time.

I spread it around some but do believe I stopped that at least during the early Sixties.
Do believe I used that poem a couple of times on the Internet before I found The Gulch almost a decade ago.
Monday before last I checked out the magazines awaiting my turn at the dentist. Talk about a collection of bland stuff I don't care about. So I used my iPhone to check out the news and the weather.
That's why I asked, which 2 in the bottom row.
Sorry, might the wife iron out the wrinkles in your panties?
Edit add: Before I retired I was coming home from work one day and when I stopped for the stop sign on my corner a huge hawk swooped past my windshield and snatched a tree rat out of the maple tree in front of my house and butchered it on my front lawn. I don't think the town has an ordinance against hawks grabbing live lunch. We need more huge hawks around here. I was so exited I took pictures.
Or would the tyrannical morons running the town say it's not 'humane'?

Side note: That Air Force Talon SS in the first link looks like something out of The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Tyrannical morons... I have stories.... LOL
About the game, there are times when I just love being wrong. That was partly due to to Bama losing its first game they would not have lost if 3 touchdowns weren't called back due to penalities. At half time me dino thought Bama was doomed with Tennessee ahead 20 to 7. But in the second half Bama came roaring from behind as I've seen other Bama teams do in the past. 34 to 20. Tennessee could not continue to score at all! And Bama penalties had become almost nonexistent. Wow!
