1. Blazing Saddles.
Even though he probably played an even better role in Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles is my favorite.

4. I voted for _Young Frankenstein_
although it's the one that got him to thinking that he was an all-round filmmaker--and ended up ruining him.

7. A fav scene is in Willie Wonka
I voted for Young Frankenshtieeeen but Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory has a great scene when the kid and Grandpa cheat with the ever lasting gob stoppers and Gene Wilder goes nuts: you cheated, ..., you get none of it,... good day sir, I said good day sir!

11. No, it's the fizzy lifting drinks.
Giving back the gobstopper despite Wonka's rudeness is what won Charlie the factory. He and Grandpa Joe stole fizzy lifting drinks. Strange how I remember this despite not having seen the movie in 20 years.

8. "But the evil Escargot knew what time it was....
his tinkering was well-timed."

FRANCE. 1789.

I LOVE "Start the Revolution Without Me."

9. Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother
Though I think his best role is Willy Wonka or Blazing Saddles.

But I love Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother.

Blazing Saddles, Silver Streak, Willy Wonka -- my 3 favs.

Then there were those murder mysteries he did recently.
