OT: Caddyshack, Blazing Saddles or Young Frankenstein? - Guest - 11-17-2017
Ok...so I watched YF tonight and I'm sure this will not be well reviewed but I didn't find it very funny. In fact I fell asleep for a few minutes of it...maybe I slept through the funny part although I recognized most of the lines I've seen quoted.
Sorry, I don't see it.

You aren't the only one Jimmy. I am not a fan of it or Blazing Saddles.

On a side note I had forgotten how cute Teri Garr was...of course I wasn't very old during her career so....

You men are all alike...five or six quick ones and your off with the boys.
Frau Blucher!
I was going to offer you an espresso!

Well, I know most of the lines in all (four), but I'm a huge Young Frankenstein fan.

Napoleon Dynamite was like that. First time watching, it was rather meh. But then recalling some of the lines later with some other guys, and the humor starts to sink in. Then it is funny as can be.
Those movies are about quotability IMO. "I'm somebody now", "abby, abby abbynormel"
