4. Well, obviously it's not meant to be taken literally...
He means all makers of dairy products. :rofl:

(I probably misquoted that - it's been entirely too long since I've seen that movie.) :hi:

5. Get yourself a nice bag of wolf nipple chips and ocelot spleens...
nothing like imperialist tidbits while enjoying a fine film.

Oddly, my favorite line is Michael Palin's delivery (as Caesar) of "He has a wife, you know..."

9. 'Why are you always on about women, Stan?'
"I want to be one."

"What?

"I want to be a woman. From now on, I want you all to call me Loretta."

"What??"

"It's my right as a man."

"Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?"

"I want to have babies."

"You want to have babies??"

"It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them."

"But you can't have babies!"

"Don't you oppress me!"

"I'm not oppressin' you, Stan; you haven't got a womb! Where's the fetus gonna gestate? Y'gonna keep it in a box??"

14. McDonald didn't exactly boost his Cy Young potential, either
Walk three and hit a guy in the same inning, and they all fucking score. :grr:

15. It's so funny!
I loved the scene where Pilate is giving the crowd a chance to select whom he will 'wewease' and the crowd calls "Roderick" and he says "I wewease Wadewick" and they crack up :party:

16. Funniest scene was Brian captured by the aliens.
That was like the end of Blazing Saddles when we see the townspeople fighting the bad guys and all of a sudden they cut
to this big splashy musical number; it just comes right out of nowhere.

17. no no no its not out of nowhere.

That was part of it, the single story, spilled over into every other story. don't you see how that works. It breaks the limits of one film and spills into many other films. Like a dimensional transition, or how Blazing saddles breaks the 4th wall when the characters talk to the audience, then even breaks another wall by entering into other movies.

That was a meant to be part of Blazing Saddles. Its got the quick draw, its got the chess piece, the vampire, lots of stuff, would take days to list them all.

Although I think they got the name for Gene Wilder wrong it was suppose to be wacko pronounced with a soft 'a'. meaning crazy, not like the city in texas.
