Burning Horse Seats

This is possibly the most politically incorrect movie in history.... and my vote for funniest. The question I pose is, could it be made today? If so, would it take the reputation of Mel Brooks to pull it off or could an unknown producer do it?

Trey and Matt could probably pull it off.

I wouldn't say that...Birth of a Nation and some John Wayne movies are more likely contenders for the title.

Blazing Saddles makes fun of political incorrect behavior, so it could really be a politically correct movie.

I firmly believe it would be a target if they tried to do it today, and wouldn't happen without a major player pushing it. There is no allowance for humor anymore and saying nigger is not allowed in any context... even the rappers are getting heat.

I think she was referring to the depiction of Indians and Mexicans.

I adore blazing saddles.

The scene where wossisname has just shown up and is up on stage in front of the town is the funniest.
