    @mariner4life the 80s was a different era when it came to movies, Porkys, Revenge of the Nerds, Screwballs, Animal House, Blazing Saddles etc

    Many of those films wouldnt get past the door of a studio now, but boy they were funny AF back then.

    Pedant Alert! That was the early 70s.

    Blazing Saddles is already about as funny as a Movie could possibly be. The fact that woke Millennials would find it obscenely offensive and demand that it gets cancelled possibly makes it even better.

    Where the white women at ?

    I walked down the street yesterday, passed two teenage girls who exited some shop, and then started walking behind me. Their conversation started with "I really don't like that New Zealand shops are still selling Redskins stuff" - presumably referring to some Washington Redskins merch. Then started talking about "the Chiefs", and whether that was okay, and then how foreigners must think about "the All Blacks... but that's really okay, because it's just all about the uniform colour"... and just generally a pair excellent examples of our next generation, superbly woke, and wonderfully unaware of actual context of any subject.
    I really wanted to turn and ask them what they thought foreigners must think of our soccer team's nickname.

    Mel Brooks literally smuggled the films past the studio bosses even then.

    One of the great comedy films with a social message which mercilessly sent up rednecks and racists. Outstanding

    @nzzp Yeah, really enjoyed it too. There's been a few murder mystery pastiches of late, many of which have been crap, but this was a great watch.

    Karate Kid III

    The most predictable movie ever. There is literally nothing in the movie that you cannot see happening miles away. With the exception of him not hooking up with the chick. I mean, what was even the point of the chick???

    0.5 pony tailed dudes out of 5 predictable endings
