Hey Film Spotters Adam and Josh here Mel Brooks blazing saddles turns 50 this year

it's getting an anniversary re-release on the 15th and the 18th of this month

this is a film Josh that we reviewed. We gave it the Sacred

Cow Treatment back on the occasion of its 40th anniversary in 2014. Where has the time

gone? A film we've both seen before, but it had been quite a while, and we both enjoyed it quite a bit.

Have you seen the movie since had any reason to catch up with blazing saddles? I have not.

Oh man, me either.

And the fact that I've not watched blazing saddles in 10 years

makes me sad for myself.

So I might have to rectify that.

It's so good.

Access to the complete Film Spotting Archive going all the way back to 2005 is just one of the perks of being a member of the film spotting family.

From February 2014, here is that Sacred Cow review of blazing saddles.

He was the goddess of desire, set men on fire I have this power

morning noon and night it's drink and dancing some quick romancing and then a shower

Stage the jonies constantly surround me

They always hound me with one request.

Who can satisfy their lustful habits?

I'm not a rabbit.

I need some rest I'm time

I'm tired. I'm tired sick and tired of love. It's been a while since we've done a sacred cow review Adam, taking a fresh look at a movie that's generally revered as a classic.
