Both of the big gags with Moses are priceless. Oh well, Moses was going to break those other two original tablets as well, anyway. He just got a head start with one. Probably dropped those by accident, too, and paid off Joshua to change the story, so he wouldn’t be remembered as such a klutz. Swept it all into the Ark of the Covenant, and convinced everyone to not get too nosy about the actual contents.
@@0okamino until a guy driving a sports car, and a cool spacecraft put on his large hunting hat and went into Afghanistan. He met a few kind people of the German persuasion and retrieved the Ark. Sure you need sunscreen spf1000 to see the covenant. But, I digress.
I love that Mel Brooks puts in subtle call backs to his previous films. Example - in Blazing Saddles "It's Hedley", in this film "De Monay". Same joke with the same great actor (Harvey Korman) playing both roles...
Mel Brooks is an American treasure. A fitting movie to watch on Independence Day. Loved your reaction, young lady. You have a great sense of humor. PS: "Hung" is American slang for, let's say, well-endowed gentlemen.
"It's good to be the king." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Gregory Hines, Pamela Stephenson, and Mary-Margaret Humes. Music Enthusiast Fact: The music used in the "Jews In Space" segment was recycled into the Men In Tights (1993) number from Robin Hood: Men In Tights (1993). That's Hot Fact: The vestal virgins (who took the oath of chastity) in Caesar's Palace in "The Roman Empire" segment were all Playboy playmates. Hugh Hefner appears as the pipe-smoking entrepreneur talking about his "centerfold" invention. Delayed Sequel Fact: On June 7, 1981, just four days before the movie opened in theaters, Mel Brooks was interviewed by The New York Times and mentioned the possibility of a sequel. However it never occurred. Brooks produced a limited eight-part History Of The World: Part II (2023) television series.

I was a department head where I used to work and one day one of the guys commented that it must be nice to flex my authority so I got myself a T-shirt that said, "It's good to be the king".
The Ray Charles/Josephus bit was kind of an inside joke. Ray was playing a blind Oedipus, who in mythology was a guy who killed his father and married his mother. So when Josephus (tap dancing legend Gregory Hines) calls him a motherf*er, he's not lying. That's a crazy joke. Oedipus Complex.
Caesar was played by Dom Deluise. He played numerous comedic roles from the 1960s until recently. He was often cast as the sweet, lovable buffoon, but you gotta love his portrayal of the raunchy Caesar. It’s good to see someone so young appreciate this kind of humor.
He also had a scene as the Pope in Johnny Dangerously. And a mobster a la Don Corleone in another Mell Brooks film. I think a screenshot of his "WRONG" megaphone moment from Blazing Saddles is the perfect graphic to send when chastising someone for screwing up.
When i first saw this, i lost it at the "pack of trojans" joke and the "crawling with soldiers" gag. Mel Brooks is the one of the few who can make the simplest and dumbest jokes so frickin hysterical.
one of my favorite "historical" comedies is a musical comedy from 1966 called "a funny thing happened on the way to the forum" directed by richard lester who directed the beatles first 2 films. it takes place in ancient rome and is based on the broadway play of the same title with music and lyrics by steven sondheim. the movie's opening and closing theme is called "a comedy tonight" which gives you an idea of what's in store. no reactors have reacted to this. BE THE FIRST! its truly a hilarious film. thanks for the video.
This is so fun watching you become a fan of Mel Brooks!😊I think I mentioned it before but Monty Python's "Meaning Of Life" is done in chapters like this is. Each chapter examines a different aspect of life. It's really very funny.Great reaction as always!😍
Gregory Hines was a great actor, and one of the best soft shoe tap dancer's in the world. He appeared in movies and tv shows, including Will and Grace, as a returning character, before his death. The movie Tap, where he shows off his dancing skills with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr and Sandman Slim is one of my favorite movies of all time.
2 favorite other films I love with Gregory Hines are "Running Scared" with Billy Crystal and "White Nights" with Mikayl Baryshnikov and Isabella Rossellini. I would love to see reactions to both those films. The latter isn't really a comedy but the former is a quite funny buddy cop film that came out before the Lethal Weapon franchise.
@@bjgandalf69 I watch Running Scared at least once every year. I originally saw it in the theaters. White Knights has never been my flavor. But it was for several I hang out with. And I used the airport scene from RS for a project in film class, with Billy and Gregory driving on the train tracks.
@tenjed4224 Kewl that you loved RS so much that you did a film project based on it. Yea, the film is underrated and should have gotten a sequel. The only Peter Hyams film I know of that is a comedy. White Nights is a dark film but it does showcase Hines' acting ability and Mikael is actually surprising good in it as well. I also like seeing Hines showing off his tap dancing and singing abilities when he is shown doing the lead is Porgy and Bess. I just remembered another film I loved him in, 1995's "Waiting to Exhale".
@@bjgandalf69 I haven't watched Porgy and Bess in a long time. I must do that this weekend. Thanks. I will give White Knights another try. I know the actors are really good.
Aria, I read the exchange you mentioned here concerning your "Bladerunner" reaction and posted a reply, but I will repeat it here in case you missed it: I know ALOT of people who have never seen "Bladerunner." I'm a huge fan of the late Texas blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan, and it was his favorite movie, so I often bring up that piece of trivia in conversations with friends, only to find out they've never watched the film. Forget the idiots sitting in the basement of their mommy's house. You're FANTASTIC, and I love, love, love watching your reactions, John. ❤
To clear all this up, before there’s any further confusion, Madeline Kahn did not play drums in The Beatles. I’m not saying she couldn’t, just that she didn’t.
Aria, I love how you get even the most subtle jokes. Seeing as how you like Mel Brooks movies, may I recommend High Axiety. It is a lesser known parity of multiple Alfred Hitchcock movies.
Another Mel Brooks film that I love but have yet to see anyone react to is "Silent Movie". Marty Feldman (Igor from Young Frankenstein) is in it too. I think Aria would enjoy this one.
@@ariachanson01 Not unless you've seen enough Hitchcock movies to get the comedy. That would be as incredibly stupid as someone watching Young Frankenstein without having seen the 3 Karloff films it references first.
I love that you love this type of humor. I live in the United States and even went to New York City, and I have never seen the Statue of Liberty in person. One day. I love watching your reactions. The Ten Commandments bit was funny to me too. You should watch the 2005 Mel Brooks Producers movie. See you soon Aria
A big early TV star was Sid Caesar, (who played the main caveman) and Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner were 2 of the writers on his show. They later became a comedy duo. Reiner (father of director Rob Reiner) based the Dick Van Dyke TV show on being in that writing room.
Loved the reaction, and your innocence with some of the jokes. Sad to hear you need only comedies right now, but luckily there are many out there to keep your soul warm. I'm sure you'll get many ideas so I'll throw in a few of my own. Top Secret (1984), Airplane (1980), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Weekend at Bernie's (1989), Caveman (1981), Clue (1985), Twins (1988) and any other Mel Brooks or Monty Python films.
Its been a ton of fun watching you react to all the Mel Brooks' movies and seeing you enjoy his humor. I have to admit that I have really been looking forward to seeing you react to all the naughty humor in this one especially! You're one of the few reactors that genuinely make me laugh right along with you. One might even say that you are the 'queen of reactors...' And to paraphrase a great man... "Its good to be the Queen!" 🤣 Keep up the amazing reactions Aria. You genuinely bring a smile to all of our faces!
@@ariachanson01 You're more than welcome! I watch almost all of you reactions. I may not always leave a comment, but I always enjoy them! Every now and then, I like to reach out and let you know that you do make a difference with your humor and by just being yourself. Plus... Its super fun to see you just laugh and enjoy these classic comedies! 😀
@@ariachanson01 I started to edit my comment, but saw the thumbs up so I was afraid you might miss this... Just in case no one else answers you... There isn't a Part 2 yet. A couple of years back, Hulu announced that a Part 2 was in the works. Supposedly, its going to be a series that Mel Brooks was supposed to be produce and write along with Wanda Sykes. Haven't heard anything else about it, but I've not searched for news either. Take care, Aria!
As french, I can tell the view of Louis XVI is "little" exaggerated. And story of revolution is little more complex. Guillotine wasn't using for executions in 1789, and people didn't want the head of the king at this moment. Yes, yes that was very interesting I know. But what a great comedy. Also I think the moment where king shoot people is inspired by the movie "The Devils" by Ken Russell. And Aria, if you want see an old movie with dinosaures and humans, you should wathch "One Million Years B.C", a classic. And in comedies I can advice to you two anthology films : "Kentucky fried movie" and "Amazon Women on the Moon".
12:38 "I did not understand that. 😞I did not understand that." Oh, Aria, when you say things like that, you indicate a fundamental core of innocence that I envy. See, the Queen's maid said, "If they're captured, they're hung." The Queen replied, "Not necessarily." Now they made this same joke in _Blazing Saddles._ Being hung _could_ mean being suspended by the neck with a rope, but it could also mean being... well... endowed. Remember, in _Blazing Saddles,_ there was that scene with one character who said, "Thank god, you alive! They said you was hung," and the other character replied, "And they was _right."_ See? Same joke.
@@ariachanson01 Oh, dear. Hang on. See, I've put a little more thought into it and it has occurred to me that the Queen's maid made a mistake in how she referred to it. See, describing the act _properly_ would've meant saying something like, "If they're captured, they're _hanged."_ The word "hung" has the double meaning. The word "hanged" doesn't. 🤷♂
The narrator is Orson Welles, a famous radio personality, actor, and director. Caveman is great! That's the comedy movie with dinosaurs. 20:07 - That guy who does the weird "pop" with his hand on his mouth, was Fritz Feld, and that was kind of his trademark.
Another great comedy is "Murder by Death (1976)" It hosts a lot of stars of the '70s, Peter Sellers was a favorite of mine in this movie. Also, a young Maggie Smith is in it, she played Professor Minerva McGonagall in the "Harry Potter franchise."
Although it's not part of the movie, he released a song to promote it named "It's good to be the King". It is considered to be one of the earliest american rap song.
Please keep watching comedies. I love watching you crack up. I highly recommend Porky’s. It’s pretty raunchy, but you laughed the most with the raunchy jokes in this one, so I think you’ll love Porky’s
What a fun time we just had! This audience will keep you busy with comedies for a long time. You certainly have shown a harmony with Mel's humor, you were running ahead of some of the lines! That was so great. I don't know of any other movies with Madelyn Kahn and dinosaurs. So this may be it. "They'll be hung." If so that would qualify as a "big decision", which should give you the appropriate flashback to Blazing Saddles "They said you was hung. And they was RIGHT!" Also, hanging the horse along with the cowboy meant that the cowboy was "hung like a horse", an extremely deep joke underneath the absurdity shown in that scene. "Walk this way" has always been an opening for some kind of humorous response. Example: "If I could walk that way I wouldn't need the talcum powder." Young Frankenstein preceded this film, 1974 vs. 1981. Kudos that you got the Oedipus joke. And the Maurice Chevalier reference. if you check the filmography of the cast you will find them to be big stars in movies, TV, and the comedy circuit at the time and in the future. This was jam-packed with talent that helped to make it great. You will absolutely crack up at A Fish Called Wanda. Looking forward to more of your reactions, thanks so much for sharing. You are a delight.
Great reaction video. This movie is so funny. I might recommend that you watch Brooks in the remake of “To Be or Not To Be,” which also starred his real-life wife, Anne Bancroft. It’s very funny, though there are some serious moments in it as well. Brooks produced it, but it was directed by Alan Johnson, who choreographed several of Mel’s movies, including “History of the World.”
Dom Deloiuse, who plays Emperor Nero, is in Silent Movie with Marty Feldman (Eyegore from Young Frankenstein). Some of my other favorite Mel Brooks movies are The Producers, High Anxiety, and Robin Hood Men in Tights.
😄👍 Dom DeLuise, who played Ceasar in this movie, was also Don Giovanni in "Robin Hood Men In Tights" and the guy directing the gay dance routine at the end of "Blazing Saddles." He's also in the Mel Brooks film, "The 12 Chairs" (1970). I am really looking forward to watching you react to every single one of those films you mentioned at the end. I did a search of your channel and noticed that so far, you've only reacted to one Jim Carrey comedy ("Bruce Almighty"). I also highly recommend "Liar Liar" (1997) and "The Mask" (1994). 😉
You've been knocking it out of the park with these silly movies lately. More outrageously silly movie recommendations include This is Spinal Tap, Three Amigos. More modern recommendations include Step Brothers, Tropic Thunder.
The "part I" is the probably the longest call back in joke history. It is referring to Sir Francis Drake, explorer and privateer who, while being imprisoned in the Tower of London, wrote a book History of the World Part I, fully intending to write a Part II, only to be killed by the English crown before he could.
I am really looking forward to watching all of the movies you have listed, especially The Meaning of Life! Also, watching Monty Python's Flying Circus is not for everyone, but for those who do like it, it is a bit of something different! And so much fun too!! Get some rest and I will see you in your next reaction!!
Great, I was thinking about this movie last night and that no one reacts to it. Glad it was you that reacted first. You do comedies so well. BTW Part 2 was done recently as a streaming series. I am sure some people liked it; meh.... Drunk History was a far better series. Based on what you referenced, my vote is A Fish Called Wanda. Kevin Kline won an Oscar for it. The entire cast was awesome too!
Ooh yeah! I vote for that too, to be swiftly followed by "Fierce Creatures" with the same group of actors - John Cleese, Michael Palin, Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Kline. Kevin deserved his Oscar for Wanda and his performance in Creatures is just as good. I also loved his performance in "Dave" with Sigourney Weaver
There is a History of the World Part II. I haven't seen it, so cant comment. A Fish Called Wanda! Yes! And there will always be assholes. Sorry you had to deal with one, though.
@@ariachanson01 Young Frankenstein is my second favorite. Igor is great.. Its even better if you have seen the original Frankenstein and bride of Frankenstein. I like when you watch comedies, Love your smile 😇😁
Another great American comedy is Smokey and the Bandit! It’s a southern American favorite but because a National Treasure! Starring Burt Reynolds, Sally Field and the great Jackie Gleason.
Aria and comedies are such a great combination. You have to love her infectious laugh. And by the way, /m in my late 60's and still haven't seen Blade Runner. Nor do I have a huge desire to see it.
The joke the Empress makes about being 'hung'.. hung is slang for having a large penis.. the same joke was used in Blazing Saddles. Bart's friend says, I heard you were hung. Bart responds with, 'and they were right'.. 🤣.. enjoyed watching your Mel Brooks journey
@@ariachanson01 I'm so happy you get/caught so many of the jokes, it makes it so much fun to laugh with you. Each time you rewatch this movie, you will catch jokes you missed because they are non-stop
If you are still looking for laughs.. silly comedy= Tommy Boy.. smart comedy= Big Lebowski.. your intelligence jumps off of the screen, great channel.. keep it up!! 😎👍
There is also a history of the world pt 2 that was the first sequel he made and he's going to be a producer on spaceballs 2 which they are currently working on the cast.
I am a 38 year old American nerd, and I have never seen Bladerunner. It just hasn't happened yet. So no, it's not even a little bit weird that someone hasn't seen a particular movie. That dude is weird.
Well, as they said in Holy Grail: Get on with it! Seriously, it is a visual treat of fantastic filmmaking and presents great roles for Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer. It makes you think. Very gritty. I think it deserves to be high on the "to see" list. All the best to you!
Keep going with Mel Brooks, you will see each movie has callback to previous ones. You will enjoy Hot Fuzz and the rest of Mel Brooks. Airplane is another 70'-80's classic, lot of 70'-80's humor so you can miss certain things but worth it. See you and Minnie next time!
So sorry to hear about that jerk's comment, but I'm happy this film made your day. BTW, "Caveman" might be the comedy that has dinosaurs you were talking about. Have you watched Mel Brooks' "Silent Movie" yet?
The joke at about 12:31, "If they're captured, they're hung." "Not necessarily." , is a play on the word, "hung". One meaning a method of execution, the other has to do with a lengthy male appendage.
Having watched this, now you'll get at least one more joke in Robin Hood: Men In Tights. Before watching it, reacting to the serious Robin Hood Prince of Thieves is optional but recommended.
"Fierce Creatures" is a different story (not a sequel) but it's the same troupe as "A Fish Called Wanda" and even more fun, IMO. "Victor/Victoria" is a hilarious gender-bending comedy musical that only a few have reacted to. Peak Julie Andrews. Not a comedy, but "Flash Gordon" is so simple and wholesomely good that it's a great movie to watch when you're feeling down. Besides, you can never go wrong with the rocking Queen awesomeness soundtrack.
_History of the World, Part 1_ is from '81. _Young Frankenstein_ is from '74. But it seems to me the bit in question ("Walk this way.") is probably quite a bit older than that.
I seen the statue of liberty.. in ghostbusters 2 ^^ one silly movie that is somehow lost is 1989s 'Erik the Viking'. Its so silly its so fun.. and not a single react anywhere
Try, please, Laurel & Hardy shorts. They’re only about 25 minutes long. Some suggestions, Busy Buddies, Helpmates, Towed in a hole, Brats, Hog Wild. I think you’ll enjoy them if you’re concentrating on Comedy.

@@ariachanson01 Well, I guess you can tell I haven't been watching my Hulu for a while, lol. Thanks Aria!
As french, I can tell the view of Louis XVI is "little" exaggerated. And story of revolution is little more complex. Guillotine wasn't using for executions in 1789, and people didn't want the head of the king at this moment. Yes, yes that was very interesting I know.
But what a great comedy.
Also I think the moment where king shoot people is inspired by the movie "The Devils" by Ken Russell. And Aria, if you want see an old movie with dinosaures and humans, you should wathch "One Million Years B.C", a classic. And in comedies I can advice to you two anthology films : "Kentucky fried movie" and "Amazon Women on the Moon".
Anything that makes you laugh out loud...you keep watching. When you laugh the whole world lights up and you make us all warm and fuzzy inside.🥰😆
The joke with Madeline Kahn saying "Not necessarily." about whether our heroes were "hung" was a reference to their "endowment".
She was so awesome in "Clue." Too much talent, gone far too soon, never to be forgotten.
12:38 "I did not understand that. 😞I did not understand that."
Oh, Aria, when you say things like that, you indicate a fundamental core of innocence that I envy.
See, the Queen's maid said, "If they're captured, they're hung."
The Queen replied, "Not necessarily."
Now they made this same joke in _Blazing Saddles._ Being hung _could_ mean being suspended by the neck with a rope, but it could also mean being... well... endowed.
Remember, in _Blazing Saddles,_ there was that scene with one character who said, "Thank god, you alive! They said you was hung," and the other character replied, "And they was _right."_
See? Same joke.
😅😅
Not to nitpick, but the line was "You shifty *******, they said you was hung!"
@@ariachanson01 Oh, dear. Hang on. See, I've put a little more thought into it and it has occurred to me that the Queen's maid made a mistake in how she referred to it. See, describing the act _properly_ would've meant saying something like, "If they're captured, they're _hanged."_
The word "hung" has the double meaning. The word "hanged" doesn't. 🤷♂
The narrator is Orson Welles, a famous radio personality, actor, and director.
Caveman is great! That's the comedy movie with dinosaurs.
20:07 - That guy who does the weird "pop" with his hand on his mouth, was Fritz Feld, and that was kind of his trademark.
I'm having a blast watching your comedy reactions; no complaints 🔥🎆
I've seen lots of reactions to Mel Brooks and Monty Python and you are genuinely the best!! It's like silly-smart comedy.
My fav type of comedy:D
"It's GOOD to be King!"... Which is why Mel always casts himself in those roles! hehehe
Tight on...I love to watch you laughing Aria. :)
Mighty joint?
“Up in Smoke” comes to my mind, now we’re talking comedy 😂
" Let's end this meeting on a high note " actress was also in Young Frankenstien . And " Dey Mo Ney " was in - Blazing Saddles .
Frau Blücher?????
@ariachanson01 yup !!!!😂😂😂
@ariachanson01 Mel Brooks tends to use alot of the same actors for his movies.
That's why she looked so familiar:D
As soon as you mention the movies I remember who they played😅 it was like they looked familiar but I didn't pay much attention to that🙈
Another great comedy is "Murder by Death (1976)" It hosts a lot of stars of the '70s, Peter Sellers was a favorite of mine in this movie. Also, a young Maggie Smith is in it, she played Professor Minerva McGonagall in the "Harry Potter franchise."
Saw this at the movies. I laughed so much I almost choked on my popcorn.
New rule: No food when watching a comedy🚫
@@ariachanson01 No drinks either, if you want to keep the screen clean!
Although it's not part of the movie, he released a song to promote it named "It's good to be the King". It is considered to be one of the earliest american rap song.
At the beginning you said we may learn something… did you?
I learned there used to be 15 commandments. 😂
Mel didn't hold back on this movie. I love this movie.. Glad you did too.
Please keep watching comedies. I love watching you crack up. I highly recommend Porky’s. It’s pretty raunchy, but you laughed the most with the raunchy jokes in this one, so I think you’ll love Porky’s
Even President Eisenhower thought it was funny!
THIS ONE IS A CLASSIC !!!!
for sure in my Top 5 Mel Brooks Movies...
"It's good to be da King!"
What a fun time we just had! This audience will keep you busy with comedies for a long time. You certainly have shown a harmony with Mel's humor, you were running ahead of some of the lines! That was so great.
I don't know of any other movies with Madelyn Kahn and dinosaurs. So this may be it.
"They'll be hung." If so that would qualify as a "big decision", which should give you the appropriate flashback to Blazing Saddles "They said you was hung. And they was RIGHT!" Also, hanging the horse along with the cowboy meant that the cowboy was "hung like a horse", an extremely deep joke underneath the absurdity shown in that scene.
"Walk this way" has always been an opening for some kind of humorous response. Example: "If I could walk that way I wouldn't need the talcum powder." Young Frankenstein preceded this film, 1974 vs. 1981.
Kudos that you got the Oedipus joke. And the Maurice Chevalier reference.
if you check the filmography of the cast you will find them to be big stars in movies, TV, and the comedy circuit at the time and in the future. This was jam-packed with talent that helped to make it great.
You will absolutely crack up at A Fish Called Wanda. Looking forward to more of your reactions, thanks so much for sharing. You are a delight.
Someone said Caveman is the one with dinosaurs. I just confused it as a Madeline Kahn movie😅
and Aria again with one of the cutest reactions. Thank you very much.
Thankyou for watching ❤️
@@ariachanson01 i think i saw the reaction for naked gun 3 at least 20 times from start to finish :D
You are awesome❤️
@@ariachanson01 no you are, thank you so very much for doing this. plz dont stop
I always wondered what the other Five Commandments were. 😂
Great reaction video. This movie is so funny. I might recommend that you watch Brooks in the remake of “To Be or Not To Be,” which also starred his real-life wife, Anne Bancroft. It’s very funny, though there are some serious moments in it as well. Brooks produced it, but it was directed by Alan Johnson, who choreographed several of Mel’s movies, including “History of the World.”
I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!
Me neither!
Nobody does!
“Nobody’s expects the spanish Inquisition”
I've never seen Bladerunner either, and usually I've seen these older classic films. Great reaction.
There is actually a part 2 now after like 40 years, it was a Hulu series
Dom Deloiuse, who plays Emperor Nero, is in Silent Movie with Marty Feldman (Eyegore from Young Frankenstein). Some of my other favorite Mel Brooks movies are The Producers, High Anxiety, and Robin Hood Men in Tights.
The beautiful and kindhearted Aria graces us once again🥰
❤️❤️❤️
@@ariachanson01 ❤❤❤❤
Mel Brooks was everywhere, man. He's gotta be in his 1,000,000's
Fun thing. Mel re-used the melody and music from "Jews in Space" for the "Men in Tights" song.
😄👍 Dom DeLuise, who played Ceasar in this movie, was also Don Giovanni in "Robin Hood Men In Tights" and the guy directing the gay dance routine at the end of "Blazing Saddles." He's also in the Mel Brooks film, "The 12 Chairs" (1970). I am really looking forward to watching you react to every single one of those films you mentioned at the end. I did a search of your channel and noticed that so far, you've only reacted to one Jim Carrey comedy ("Bruce Almighty"). I also highly recommend "Liar Liar" (1997) and "The Mask" (1994). 😉
At Universal Studios I rode a Tour Tram through the Red Sea Parting set but Moses was not there!
I have this on VHS. Fun!!
It took a while, but - a of very recently - there is a part 2. It's a show rather than a movie.
More comedies! Definitely watch more comedies! The world needs to laugh right now, or we're going to burst out crying.
True, more comedies it is:D
@@ariachanson01 Yay! 🥳
You've been knocking it out of the park with these silly movies lately. More outrageously silly movie recommendations include This is Spinal Tap, Three Amigos. More modern recommendations include Step Brothers, Tropic Thunder.
The History of The World Part 2 is available on Hulu.
Orson Wells did the narration. Brooks paid him $ 10,000. Great post. Don't let the bastards get you down!
The "part I" is the probably the longest call back in joke history. It is referring to Sir Francis Drake, explorer and privateer who, while being imprisoned in the Tower of London, wrote a book History of the World Part I, fully intending to write a Part II, only to be killed by the English crown before he could.
I am really looking forward to watching all of the movies you have listed, especially The Meaning of Life! Also, watching Monty Python's Flying Circus is not for everyone, but for those who do like it, it is a bit of something different! And so much fun too!! Get some rest and I will see you in your next reaction!!
I appreciate that she did this.
Great, I was thinking about this movie last night and that no one reacts to it. Glad it was you that reacted first. You do comedies so well. BTW Part 2 was done recently as a streaming series. I am sure some people liked it; meh.... Drunk History was a far better series.
Based on what you referenced, my vote is A Fish Called Wanda. Kevin Kline won an Oscar for it. The entire cast was awesome too!
I'll be watching every single one I mentioned😁
Ooh yeah! I vote for that too, to be swiftly followed by "Fierce Creatures" with the same group of actors - John Cleese, Michael Palin, Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Kline. Kevin deserved his Oscar for Wanda and his performance in Creatures is just as good. I also loved his performance in "Dave" with Sigourney Weaver
@@dingokidneys it is like saffrom... A little or a lot. it is all great. Monty without Python.Terry directed A Fish Called Wanda I think...
There is a History of the World Part II. I haven't seen it, so cant comment.
A Fish Called Wanda! Yes!
And there will always be assholes. Sorry you had to deal with one, though.
One of my favorite Mel Brooks movies.
From the ones I've seen, this one and Young Frankenstein top the list for me :D
@@ariachanson01 Young Frankenstein is my second favorite. Igor is great.. Its even better if you have seen the original Frankenstein and bride of Frankenstein. I like when you watch comedies, Love your smile 😇😁
I believe the statue is a sphinx, woman's head, lion's body, bird's wings. Oedipus faces one in Greek myth.
Another great American comedy is Smokey and the Bandit! It’s a southern American favorite but because a National Treasure! Starring Burt Reynolds, Sally Field and the great Jackie Gleason.
Just so you know history of the world part 2 came out last year and Mel brooks did it,haven’t seen it as it’s only on Netflix I think.
“The last remake of beau geste” is very funny but rarely watched. I recommend it to you because I think you would love it.
The one with dinosaurs is Caveman, starring Ringo Starr, it's hilarious, I recommend it enthusiastically.
Aria and comedies are such a great combination. You have to love her infectious laugh. And by the way, /m in my late 60's and still haven't seen Blade Runner. Nor do I have a huge desire to see it.
Recommendations for comedy:
1 - Fletch
2 - Fletch Lives! (Has the sheriff from Blazing Saddles in it)
The joke the Empress makes about being 'hung'.. hung is slang for having a large penis.. the same joke was used in Blazing Saddles. Bart's friend says, I heard you were hung. Bart responds with, 'and they were right'.. 🤣.. enjoyed watching your Mel Brooks journey
Oh, thanks for explaining. I didn't get this joke in Blazing Saddles either🙈😅
@@ariachanson01 I'm so happy you get/caught so many of the jokes, it makes it so much fun to laugh with you. Each time you rewatch this movie, you will catch jokes you missed because they are non-stop
If you are still looking for laughs.. silly comedy= Tommy Boy.. smart comedy= Big Lebowski.. your intelligence jumps off of the screen, great channel.. keep it up!! 😎👍
Peace and love to you. Thanks for sharing.
There is also a history of the world pt 2 that was the first sequel he made and he's going to be a producer on spaceballs 2 which they are currently working on the cast.
A COMEDY (with Jack Black and Michael Cera ) that travels thru time is "Year One"... I think you'd enjoy it!
I am a 38 year old American nerd, and I have never seen Bladerunner. It just hasn't happened yet. So no, it's not even a little bit weird that someone hasn't seen a particular movie. That dude is weird.
THANK YOU
Exactly what I thought
Well, as they said in Holy Grail: Get on with it! Seriously, it is a visual treat of fantastic filmmaking and presents great roles for Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer. It makes you think. Very gritty. I think it deserves to be high on the "to see" list. All the best to you!
Keep going with Mel Brooks, you will see each movie has callback to previous ones. You will enjoy Hot Fuzz and the rest of Mel Brooks. Airplane is another 70'-80's classic, lot of 70'-80's humor so you can miss certain things but worth it. See you and Minnie next time!
Saw Airplane 1&2 last year, loved them:D many more Mel Brooks movies still left though😄
@@ariachanson01 Oops, forgot about Airplane.
Brooks produced History of the World Part Two, not as a movie but as a mini-series on Hulu
So sorry to hear about that jerk's comment, but I'm happy this film made your day. BTW, "Caveman" might be the comedy that has dinosaurs you were talking about.
Have you watched Mel Brooks' "Silent Movie" yet?
Part II came out on Hulu a year or 2 ago. It is worth checking out.
The joke at about 12:31, "If they're captured, they're hung." "Not necessarily." , is a play on the word, "hung". One meaning a method of execution, the other has to do with a lengthy male appendage.
Having watched this, now you'll get at least one more joke in Robin Hood: Men In Tights. Before watching it, reacting to the serious Robin Hood Prince of Thieves is optional but recommended.
"Fierce Creatures" is a different story (not a sequel) but it's the same troupe as "A Fish Called Wanda" and even more fun, IMO.
"Victor/Victoria" is a hilarious gender-bending comedy musical that only a few have reacted to. Peak Julie Andrews.
Not a comedy, but "Flash Gordon" is so simple and wholesomely good that it's a great movie to watch when you're feeling down. Besides, you can never go wrong with the rocking Queen awesomeness soundtrack.
Not necessarily hung is referring to his male appendage
I love how the joke of mispronouncing Harvey Korman's character's name in "Blazing Saddles" was carried over to this film with Count de Mo ne...😂😅😊
Also, I would recommend the movie Clue if you haven’t seen it. Madeline Kahn is in it, among many other legendary comedy actors.
Her best lines in that movie I say.
_History of the World, Part 1_ is from '81. _Young Frankenstein_ is from '74. But it seems to me the bit in question ("Walk this way.") is probably quite a bit older than that.
The "Walk this way." gag has been around a long time. Even before Mel Brooks.
I seen the statue of liberty.. in ghostbusters 2 ^^
one silly movie that is somehow lost is 1989s 'Erik the Viking'. Its so silly its so fun.. and not a single react anywhere
It’s good to be the King!!
Try, please, Laurel & Hardy shorts. They’re only about 25 minutes long. Some suggestions, Busy Buddies, Helpmates, Towed in a hole, Brats, Hog Wild. I think you’ll enjoy them if you’re concentrating on Comedy.
At that time a very popular singer was the handsome and talented, beautifully-voiced Engelbert Humperdinck. Maybe they were referencing him.
Oh yeah, could be him
