I just saw 'Blazing Saddles' on CNNMSNBCBSABC
At least I think it was Blazing Saddles.
The story was a little bit different than the 1974 classic by Mel Brooks. But the plot was the same.
It begins with an idiot governor
And then the governor decided to appoint a black man
I thought for sure the appointment was designed to drive the racists in Rock Ridge out of their minds. But no - it was to drive the senators in Washington DC out of their minds.
Anyway, the new mayor (or was it senator?) heads off to Washington DC. (Or was it Rock Ridge?)
Where they are eagerly awaiting him….
But wait… Things are not looking so good for Sheriff Burris.…
In fact - Harry (Johnson) Reid and the rest of the democrat senators are a little more than just unhappy.
Here's Harry himself….
I fell asleep and missed the rest of the picture. So I'm not sure how this 2009 version ends. It sure seems an awful lot like the 1974 version though. It'll be interesting how this all works out.

Here I stand, the goddess of desire
Set men on fire
I have this power.
Morning, noon, and night, it's dwink and dancing
Some quick womancing
And then a shower.
Stage door Johnnies constantly suwwound me
They always hound me, with one wequest.
Who can satisfy their lustful habits?
I'm not a wabbit...

No I have never watched it.

How cool.
And how ironic that Blazing Saddles (the original 1974 version) was on the AMC channel last night.
To: Responsibility2nd
FYI, Just found on my channel guide that Blazing Saddles will be on AMC Thursday, January 15. Has a movie thread ever been hosted at FR? Might be a good juncture away from reality....
