SJW’s are some of the most humorless people on the planet.

I didn’t see if this humorless assclown watched Blazing Saddles. Maybe a few episodes of “In Living Color”?

Maybe a few episodes of “In Living Color”?What a great show that was. Jim Carrey before he went totally bonkers. That parody of Vanilla Ice, basically ended his career.

The esteemed author. Bet he makes absolutely wonderful company when watching not only Airplane, but Blazing Saddles, Silver Streak, M*A*S*H (during it's first one or two seasons), All in the Family, Sanford and Son, Dukes of Hazzard, and other wonderfully objectionable material we got to grow up with, lol.

He probably doesn’t even know that this movie spoofs the Airport series of disaster films of the 70s.

Watch them dissect Blazing Saddles. Will they recognize it’s not a racist movie? It’s the opposite, it outright mocks the racist characters and they are the butt of the jokes.

This person’s bio says he has made a few short films, and that is all he will ever do. He wouldn’t know the true comedic value of a film if it bit him in the *****.
Undercover Brother is the same kind of film as Airplane, but written with the producers and directors mostly being black, if not totally black. And they make fun of the whites (and women) and make it personal. Guess what, it is just as funny from the other direction and I do not take the white jokes personally.
I cannot answer for women.
