  You might be a tad on the young side. These kinds of movies were a product of their time and likely wouldn’t hold up for people who grew up in the age of Tiktok, Vine, youtube shorts, etc.

    I wish that were the case.

  Do you like ANY Mel Brooks movie? Zucker Brothers?

    Of course. The Mel Brooks films with Gene Wilder are classics. I can quote Airplane and Naked Gun until the cows come home. Just find Spaceballs pretty much unwatchable. Just my opinion!

      It hasn’t aged as well as I think people remember. Did you see it when it came out?

        Definitely agree with that. Probably first saw it on VHS a few years after it came out.

      I mean when comparing Spaceballs to Young Frankenstein or Blazing Saddles, I can see the argument for it not being great.

      It is definitely not one of his better movies.

      I still kind of like it though and I will support almost any Mel Brooks vehicle. At least just for the off chance we get another glorious movie like Blazing Saddles.
