Blazing Saddles is one of those movies that could not be made today, thank god we had him then

I loved young frakenstein as a child, and its one of my favorite movies to watch.

The following is a possible conversation between Clevon Little (Bart) and Gene Wilder (Jim) upon the latter's recent arrival in heaven:
Bart: Are we awake?
Jim: We're not sure. Are we... black?
Bart: Yes, we are.
Jim: Then we're awake... but we're very puzzled.

I'll always remember him most for Young Frankenstein. RIP Gene.

Another meteoric Hollywood talent lost now to the ages, to be replaced by the generally mediocre pap of the modern actor heavily embellished with digital CGI to make you forget about the lousy acting. *sigh* Thankfully, Gene is forever preserved for us in mylar.

@Mcitinner1 - Teri Garr filled that role wonderfully. :wink:
Damn. I didn't know Cleavon Little died.
