Notes from the Wired

Blazing Saddle(1974)

April 10, 2025

Wild West comedy with very blunt and dumb humor — but I like it.

“Now, I don’t have to tell you good folks what has been happening here in our beloved little town.
Sheriff murdered,
crops burned,
stores looted,
people stampeded,

…and cattle raped.”

~ Blazing Saddles

It has the same vibe as The Naked Gun or Airplane! with Leslie Nielsen — that over-the-top, absurd kind of comedy. Also… what was that ending about? 6/10.
