Reminds me of "The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob" with Louis de Funés. There, Louis de Funés is using them as turn indicators when riding a motorcycle...
It's also a meta joke, reference to Get Smart, where "missed by that much" was a running gag. Many jokes in Men in Tights are callbacks to older Mel Brooks work.
He's 97 years old (born 28 June 1926). That he's working at all is a borderline miracle. He has some minor roles coming up and is producing Young Frankenstein Live! for ABC. I doubt we're getting another movie out of him at this point.
@@JarrodFrates Unfortunately, Mel stopped doing them 30 years ago, after a few films in a row got low reviews... he later produced a few musicals based on his movies as this was what his late wife Anne Bancroft was working on in final years of her life. Similar style was picked up by ZAZ (David Zucker who is, admittedly, a self-absorbed hack) and the Wayans with Scary Movie, then ran into the ground with endless "[Thing] Movie" films... I wonder if Brooks films would be well received if he returned in mid-2000s.
I remember when my brother and our friend did.....BASEketball bowling. Basically, during your turn to throw your ball, others can say whatever to try to get u to miss or lower your focus to throw a bad shot. During our friend's turn, I got him to miss by using Rebbi's quote about his Drunken mule......."I don't like the way you're walking. You've gotten into the sacramental wine again! You're ******* you Drunken mule you." He busted out laughing and ended up falling over during his throw. (Mainly due to his unorthodox bowling approach, leaving his posture and balance way off)
Mel Brooks as the Rabbi, is brilliant, To the mule, "You are Fershnickered. " @ 1:51 To the men , " Vagalists?" @ 2:13 Rabbi profession, " Mohel extraordinaire." @ 2:57 Rabbi about circumcision, " Oh, it is the latest rage, the ladies love it!" @ 3:18 Little John " Oh, I will take two of them!" @ 3:21
Never noticed, "Latrine said."i touched it." I always thought she said i touched him. 😂😂😂 Roger Rees absolutely slaughtered this role. He was hysterically funny. Flawless comedic performance.
Never did understand all those 'removing the tip' circumcision jokes. if anything it's _defining_ the tip. making it more immediately clear you've got one. You wouldn't call the rolled-back cuff of a shirt the "tip" of the sleeve, would you? Yeah it leads to great "keep the tip" jokes and all, but it always bugs me.
@@delroygordon282 Prince John: Such an unusual name, "Latrine." How did your family come by it? Latrine : We changed it in the 9th century. Prince John: You mean you changed it TO "Latrine"? Latrine: Yeah. Used to be "Shithouse." Prince John: It's a good change. That's a good change!
Wait a minute! There's things here! There's rocks, there's trees, there's birds, there's squirrels. Come on, we'll bless them all until we get vashnigyered
Mel Brook is Brilliant. To the mule............" You are Fershnickered" To Robin Hood......." You are Vagalists?" His profession ......."Mohel extraordinaire" The results of a "Mohel", as Mel Brook described it, " It is the going rage, ladies love it." Then on hearing that, Little John , "I have two of them!" Wonderful sense of humour, much better than Sarah Milican, and the likes of her, including, George Carlin and Gary Delaney!
@@Yowzoe how is it slow, they have a punchline every 10 seconds, I counted 6 in one minute, did half the jokes fly over your head? Granted, some (I HAVE A MOLE) were payoffs with a long setup before this clip.
It's almost impossible to believe that this car crash of a movie is from the same man who gave us The Producers, Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles 😳
He makes fun of everyone including his own culture, in a harmless goofy way. He definitely doesn't pull any punches with bigots! (see: Blazing Saddles & the Producers)

To me, the rabbi tipping his hat *along with his sideburns* is the best joke of the movie.
Those are actually called payos! It’s part of a Jewish covenant with god to not cut certain corners of hair
@@slevemcdichael5274 Thanks. I know what they are, I just didn't know what they're called in English.

No they weren't.
@@scarygary-qq1pjthey absolutely were.
Oh I didn't know Roger had died as well; how sad; but what a career!!!
Insane how Mel Brooks have outlived both of them. Hope he makes it past 100!
I only just realised that was roger rees! Awesome actor
"Loxley and Baguelle, you can't miss."
I am only now in TYOOL 2024 catching this joke. Mel Brooks, you absolute legend.
care to explain 😊
@@AK-tf3fc Loxley and Baguelle = lox and bagels.
@@LaMarcheFutilé101 i watched that today and i forgot that joke was in there
Wait until hire someone with the family name Schmear! 😁
"i was that close. i touched it."
i had totally forgotten that line.
It's also a meta joke, reference to Get Smart, where "missed by that much" was a running gag. Many jokes in Men in Tights are callbacks to older Mel Brooks work.
I busted out laughing. Never get tired of that line. 😂
I can't verify this to be true, but I can easily see how "I touched it" could be an improvised line.
@r0bw00d Actually, that whole scene was improvised
@@KasumiRINA wherein I just learn that Get Smart was also one of Mel Brook's works (though in retrospect this makes perfect sense)
I loved this movie as a kid, and found it hilarious, but there were so many jokes that i didnt even know were there until i was older.
I just love Mel's old school Brooklin Jewish accent...
_Azoy._
NOBODY can be more hilarious than Mel!!
Idk, when the blind butler raised his hand, to be IMMEDIATELY SNATCHED DOWN BY Dave Chappelle I chuckled a bit…
Wrong. The Monty python team alone are far funnier
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 opinion - each their own - neither of you are right (or wrong) - and those (Python and Brooks) are damn fine at Comedy !!
I've been watching this movie for 25 years and I JUST got the loxley and bagel joke. 😂
You must be REALLLLYYYYYY SSLLLOOOOOWWWWWW........
Heh heh. I STILL don't get it!
@@JustWasted3HoursHere It's a pun on the lox & bagel (a smoked fish) sandwich. It's a staple of Jewish delis.
This person of this group giving things for free. LOL! What a propaganda.
Me too - that's terrible - I fail at comedic interpretation... sigh !!
1:09 sometimes the man upstairs throws you a freebie 😂
“You to were made for each other , Lockley and Bagel” !
“Loxley”
I don't get this joke
@@danialroslan1531 look up “lox and bagels”
Truthfully this is one of the worst puns MB ever penned.
@@danialroslan1531 look up “bagels and lox”
It’s one of MB’s worst puns.
@@danialroslan1531Locksley -- Lox (cured salmon) and Bagelle -- Bagel. Lox is often served on a bagel in Jewish delicatessens.
Little John. "I'll take two!"
Legend Mel Brooks, the one and only
When Mel Brooks passes, we'll have lost a national treasure.
I don't think he will pass. The guy looks great every time I see him..
Got high hopes he will hit the triple digits
It boggles my mind how ancient he is and yet is still alive
What a great movie! You know you're going to laugh your ass off when The Great MEL BROOKS is involved!
Come on, we'll all get fashnicken!!
Yeah, let's get farshickert!
3:49 “I gotta work on a much younger crowd.” HAHAHA!!
I never got the lox and bagel joke until now😊
The migrating mole on Prince John's face was my favorite not so hidden joke in this movie. It's just in different spots every time, I love it.
All these years later, I just realized the mole thing was a take-off of the hump joke from "Young Frankenstein".
Which I heard was improvised by Marty Feldman, much to Mel's amusement.
2:49 “Loxley and Bagelle, can’t miss!” I’ve seen this numerous times in the 31 years since it came out and I just now got that joke. 😅😅
“Hello boi-yes.”
Alternative joke:
"It's only used to bless things."
"Ok, never mind. Come on, Ah Choo."
"Bless you!"
You gotta love Mel Brooks.
"I was THAT close.....I touched it."
The "I touched it" was improvised by Tracey Ullman. Such a funny woman.
The part where she tries to get on top of him was her and Roger Rees’ idea.
@@Powerranger-le4up Sounds about right.
Ruben Hood, watches the tiny guillotine demonstration. "You seem to be on the side of good!"
Only last week did I realize that’s dave chapelle in this
I wish Mel would do another movie !!

His first role as an adult too. His first role was in The End of August when he was 8 or 9.

You just entered a territory of Robin Hood and his marry man! ......feigeles?

I got the Locksley and Bagelle joke the first time I ever saw the movie. I wonder how long it has taken other people.
I gotta watch this movie. If God answered prayers that fast we’d all be more religious. 😂
If any god answered prayers at all, that would be something.
God answers prayers at the right time.
Not your time.
"Oh no I've got a headache!" A married man wrote this.
Classic!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I think sometimes Mel Brooks isn't that funny when he acts in his own films (sometimes a bit too much mugging) but as a writer he's a comic genius.
Whatever, he’s great here
I’ve got a headache 😂
Feygeles?
No, we're straight. Just... merry!
