Some of us are too young for Blazing Saddles.

I'm not feeling that way. Gettin' plenty of ego boo right here. Besides it's not like the point of caption games is to win. The point is the captions. Plus I hear it's an honor just to be snubbed.

Pshaw. If you are over the age of twelve you are not too young for 'Blazing Saddles'. It's still America's most profound work on racism (and bigotry in general) as well as being a darn tootin' good parody of the old style Hollywood westerns. Rent, I say, rent.

I'm only 21 and I know 'Blazing Saddles' like I was nursed to it. It doesn't have anything to do with age, it has more to do with whether people seek out classic movies or just what's currently on the idiot box (that's a TV if anyone is unsure).

I think someone with the necessary computer expertise, and the inclination, should do a 'Blazing Saddles' montage. Not me though, cos I am technologically deficient. Whoever did would be guaranteed of a great many people's appreciation and laughter.

Just to check your opinion:

The vote started on the 5th, and is scheduled to stop allowing votes on the 9th (so you will be able to vote on the 8th, but not on the 9th).

During this time, there has been a total of 12 votes.

Do you want the vote to end early? I can end it today if you wish and start round #2 either today or tomorrow.

PS. Sorry Davshayne, I just didn't understand your caption.

Not being in the USA, it is impossible for me to see "Blazing Saddles".



Anybody who disagrees with any of this violently can do so. But no matter what you do, "You can't take the sky from me".

Pretty sure it was on the Beeb, (the BBC to y'all over the other side of the pond), just before Christmas. Not withstanding that, it's something you should have no trouble finding over here.

It's a shiny movie well worth watching.

No need to apologize. As I said captioning is the point not the contest that surrounds it. You should however make the effort to track down 'Blazing Saddles'.

'He road a blazing saddle
He wore a shining star
His job to offer battle
To bad men near and far

'He conquered fear and he conquered hate
He turned dark night into day
He made his blazing saddle
A torch to light the way'

Just a portion of the theme song. I think it says it all really.

I live in Australia, so seeing 'Blazing Saddles' overseas isn't impossible, just probably a little difficult. I would fully recomment that you watch this movie though, because it is pretty much one of the all-time greatest comedies.
