Hey, it's waters from the waters wake-up call who knew Monday mornings can be fun We were talking about comedy movies never to be rebooted leave them as they are and thank God you had a lot to say about it No, well put no don't don't remake airplane.

What would they be thinking?

But

what specifically is it to you that?

Airplane should not be

touched

same and don't make anything.

Right.

It's just a movie that I grew up with, and it just needs to stay the same.

I know, and it was just so original when it came out.

I remember going to that movie, and I was about, I don't know, 14.

I just thought I'd never seen a comedy like that before, and it was hilarious.

It was just this absurd, crazy, and everybody was very serious.

That was the great thing.

Everybody was really serious, but same.

Yeah,

like there wasn't any, they didn't crack a smile, you know, like,

You know, I'm just like, it was just, yeah, but they can't remake

that.

And it was great that they had people like Leslie Nielsen and Peter Graves and Lloyd Bridges.

They had always played these very serious parts.

Like I remember Leslie Nielsen was like always serious as a guest star on a cop show or something.

And all of these really serious guys were just doing the funniest things and still acting the serious way you'd always seen them.

It was just.

It was a brilliant show.

It

was.

And

I mean, sometimes I will, I will watch it again just because, you know, you just need that whole

time.

Yeah, it's absolutely true.

It's one of those when if I'm flipping around and it's on, I just, okay, this is where I'm.

This is where I'm staying.

And I usually flip around like...

And

you immediately go, oh, airplane, then you put the remote down.

I mean, if somebody came up to me and said, hey, I'm going to remake airplane, I'd go, surely you can't be serious.

I am serious and don't call me Shirley just so serious

should never be remade again is baseball

Mel Brooks is is making a spaceballs to now

should never redo it

and I don't think he's redoing it I think he's doing a sequel probably right

Yeah, you know, now everybody is saying, uh, Mel Brooks movies.

I just got a call about, uh, Robin Hood, Men in Tights, and now you're saying Spaceballs.

So yeah, uh, but you know, if he was truly, sorry, go ahead.

You can't go wrong with a Mel Brooks movie.

No.

and it can't be anybody else writing it or directing it or anything and he at this point in his life 90 he's getting he's getting upwards toward 100 he probably shouldn't be attempting anything like that himself let alone anybody else

no

yeah

no

it's just too perfect they're too perfect

That is correct

whether it's young Frankenstein blazing saddles or the space balls I mean those are three of the biggest classics he ever did and and As far as comedies go, it's tough to beat Mel Brooks It's not impossible

Look who he had for his main character in a lot of them or his main actor Gene Wilder Yep

Yeah, he was in what the producers young Frankenstein blazing saddles

I said, I

was

trying to remember all of them myself when I said

that.

Yeah, I think there are three and those are three three of the biggies.

Yep.

Yeah.

Amen, sister.

I say amen.

Yep.

Yeah, you too.

Thanks for calling.

Yep.

Bye bye.

What are you going to do in Dubuque?

Special Olympics Winter Games!

Yeah!

Yeah!

I hope

you all get gold.

That is the plan.

We got our snowshoes and our cross country and downhill gears.

We are ready to go.

Right on.

Well, it's all downhill from here.

No,

hold

on.

I said that wrong.

No pun intended.

No,

no, of course not.

What's the one clop-clop-clop-clop?

Clop-clop?

I don't know what clop-clop.

Are you

thinking the coconuts?

Money, Python, and the Holy Grail?

There we go.

Absolutely not.

Nobody else could do Money, Python, and the Holy Grail justice.

Even if they called it something else and the Holy Grail.

Eddie Murphy in the Holy Grail.

No, don't do it.

Carrot Top in the Holy Grail.

No!

That

would be downhill and I'm not talking skiing.

I

can't imagine any, where are you going to get another guy like Andre the Giant?

That's a classic that doesn't need to be touched.

Exactly.

Yeah.

Probably one of the most profitable movies out there.

As far as remake of that, inconceivable.

Inconceivable.

I do not think that word means what you think it

means.

Yeah.

Hello.

My name is Inigo Mantoya.

You kill my father.

Prepare to die.

Bench Patinkin says there's hardly a day that goes by that someone doesn't ask him to say that

lie.

I went out with a girl once who said you have to watch Princess Bride before we actually get serious.

So I had to watch Princess Bride, I had to like Princess Bride, and then we could get serious.

So all I can tell you is, we got

serious.

Oh my

god, no.

I'm surprised anybody runs the movie as sensitive as everybody is.

Yeah, never

watch an edited for television version of Blazing Saddles.

That's a bad idea right there.

And there's a lot of racial humor in there.

You know who co-wrote the movie with?

Mel Brooks.

Who's that?

Eddie Lamar?

Headly.

No, Richard Pryor.

Oh, really?

That's hilarious.

So all of the racial humor, the black humor, was written by Richard Pryor.

I can go line for line on that movie with you.

Yeah.

Well, it's one of those movies.

I mean, everybody's seen it a million times.

Hey, somebody go back and get us a s**t load of dimes.

Gentlemen, rest your sphincters.

You shouldn't remake it just because it's so great and iconic, but also because you couldn't do it justice at this point in

time.

You could pull it off.

I don't know who could write it

though.

That's two votes now for Blazing Saddles.

Yeah.

You know, if they did remake it now, I think it would just basically have to be a 90-minute campfire scene with the beans and the farting and the stuff.

That'd be about it.

Yeah, but even that is offensive, because were the beans vegan?

Were they kosher?

Were they killed humanely?

Well, I

mean, are they mixed with barbecue sauce or

who don't?

That's true.

That's true.

I don't know Good morning Back at ya.

Thank you.

Thank you.

What's happening man?

What's happening?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Lose brothers man.

Yeah.

You know Dan Aykroy tried to do another Blues Brothers movie after John died with his brother Jim Belushi?

Noooo!

So that was a failure there.

If they didn't anything now... No.

I would not even give it the time of day.

No, it was just amazing how that all...
