Dark Helmet: [lifts his helmet] Careful, you idiot! I said across her nose, not up it!

Gunner: [lifts helmet, revealing that he's cross-eyed] Sorry, sir! I'm doing my best!

Dark Helmet: Who made that man a gunner?

Major Asshole: [also cross-eyed] I did, sir. He's my cousin.

Dark Helmet: [to Sandurz] Who is he?

Colonel Sandurz: He's an Asshole, sir.

Dark Helmet: I know that. What's his name?

Colonel Sandurz: That is his name, sir. Asshole. Major Asshole.

Dark Helmet: And his cousin?

Colonel Sandurz: He's an Asshole too, sir. Gunner's mate, First Class, Philip Asshole.

Dark Helmet: How many Assholes have we got on this ship, anyhow?!

Bridge Crew: [stands up and raises a hand, except for one person] YO!

Dark Helmet: I knew it. I'm surrounded by Assholes. [closes helmet] Keep firing, Assholes!

My friends and I quote each other lines from this movie and Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles all the time. Mel Brooks is the greatest comedic genius this country has ever produced.

Hopefully as this woke era dies off a new generation of comedic genius will rise up and poke fun at themselves and all of us.

You couldn’t get a studio today to produce Blazing Saddles to save your life.

I do think we are on the right track with most of the memes today.

Or maybe it’s just me because I have an Abby Normal brain.

From Young Frankenstein:

[Frankenstein, Igor and Inga in front of HUGE castle doors]

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein : While looking at the huge door knockers on the huge castle doors.

What knockers.

Inga : Oh, thank you doctor.

RIP

Amen his work is amazing and all of these were instant classics and I had the exact same thought last night about hopes that real comedy comes back.
