Watching Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves would help with catching a lot of the references. This movie's basically a direct parody of it. Saw it in the theater with my mom when it came out. Really fun to watch it again.

At the end the line "It's good to be the king..." is from History of the World Part I. Again, Mel being an equal opportunity insulter like the jockeys on camels was referring to the derogatory term for those of Arabia. One of the best lines of "Unlike some Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent..." was parodying Prince of Thieves because Kevin Costner did use or even try an accent.

Early in the movie you get the joke of jockeys on camels. It's a reference to a slur used to refer to people from the middle east. This movie came out maybe 18 months after the end of the first Gulf War and it definitely influences some of the others references, as well, like Tomahawk Arrow.
@jeremygeorgia4943

"Jerusalem?" Yes. This film is an almost scene for scene recreation of the Kevin Costner movie "Prince of Thieves". It also started in Jerusalem, and had Robin Hood as a prisoner of the Crusades, to expand the back story a bit. Also, I think there is also a beach scene, where Kevin Costner is talking to Morgan Freemen on the beach. I think there is a cut, and they all end up in England, and Mel Brooks decided to take some liberties with the interpretation of that scene. I think the opening credits are meant to be a throw-back to older movies, when pre-movie credits were a lot more prevalent. This style would have been pretty appropriate for more classical Robin Hood films. While Costner tried to update the idea, I think Brooks decided to keep more of the classical grounding, to avoid seeming so dark and gritty. Most of the first half of the movie makes far more sense, if you have seen Costner's Robin Hood movie. I am glad you guys finally covered this one. It's a favorite of mine. I think it's slightly more refined than Spaceballs, with a stronger story, while also being a bit "safer" than "Blazing Saddles". Cary Elwes seems perfect for the part.

Mel Brooks may give the jokes more room to breath because of his life experiences. He was a child during the twilight of Vaudeville acts and he cut his teeth writing sketch comedy performed before a live studio audience. So the ingrained timing is probably to hold a beat so that the audience's laughter doesn't cover up the next joke. For many years this continued to be simulated in sitcoms _not_ performed in front of a live audience (like MASH) by using a laugh track, so there was still the requirement to hold for the fake laugh to be inserted. The coming of the late 90s / early 2000s brought the decline of the laugh track, particularly with the rise of the popularity of single camera comedies like Scrubs, Malcolm in the Middle, Arrested Development, etc. so there was no longer a need to slow down the speed of the jokes. Young writers who grew up on that era of TV thus were exposed to entirely different comedic timing than Mel Brooks (who is nearly 97 years old).

The most curious quirk is present when it comes to the Sheriff. He switches around phonemes in the sentences he utters. He says things like "He _deered_ to kill a king's _dare."_ Now it's clear what his _intended_ meaning is, but this is, nonetheless, a comedic _device._ It's called a _spoonerism._ It pops up when someone tries to quote Shakespeare and says something like, "What, by yonder light, breaks wind."

"Dracula: Dead and Loving It" is probably the only Mel Brooks parody movies that you're missing.

Like the Swiss flag, that's a huge plus.

The joke with the Sheriff's name being "Mervin" is that it is, at least by today's standards, a really rare and unusual name, compared to standard names like "Tom", "Michael", or "John". It also sounds kind of "weird" to most people. "Kermit" is similar in terms of rarity and unusualness (though the "Muppets" association is part of that one), think of how many people today actually have either of those names. Interestingly, the name is Welsh, and means "great lord", which would actually make it a fairly appropriate name at the time.

I'm all about your intro Simone. Disney's Robin Hood was a huge part of my childhood. Roger Miller's narration and songs in that movie is pure bliss to listen to, and Not in Nottingham remains one of my all time favorite Disney songs.

This movie is probably my favorite Brooks film.. Fun fact, Kevin Costner wanted to reprise his role as Robin in this one, but it failed due to some scheduling conflict or something if memory serves (I know Mel spoke about it in a making of video)

Perhaps take a look at the 1938 Adventures of Robin Hood w/ Errol Flynn, Basil Rathbone, Olivia de Havilland et al. The classic on which all further Robin Hood movies (inc Disney) were based.

The "I'm so happy" line and the way she pronounced it is definitely a reference to the old "Scrooge" movie with Alastair Sim. One of the female characters says that line and pronounces it exactly like that, the difference being that the audience was supposed to take it seriously.

So funny that George mentions he thinks Simone's opening bit is from Cheers, when Roger Rees (Rottingham) may he rest in peace was on Cheers for 1 or 2 seasons.

At the start of this movie one of the villagers when the roof catches fire was the really loud lady in Blazing Saddles (and is Dom Delouis' wife). That scene were Robin hits the sherif in the dining room, one of the women in red is Leita from Deep Space 9.

This is like watching Spaceballs before Star Wars. ...Which I kinda did, so I shouldn't complain. The great thing about Mel Brooks' best parodies is that you can get a lot out of rewatching the originals and the spoofs multiple times over the years, picking up ever more references on the way.

I don't know if it's still this way but back in the day Rent-a Wreck was awesome. You'd rent a car or truck for dirt cheap. It was clean and ran fine but it was usually dented and scratched, so if you accidentally added another dent, they didn't give a shit unless you actually broke something. Perfect for moving small loads of furniture or appliances, or doing a run to the landfill.

The "Hey Abbott!" line at the wedding was a reference to Abbott & Costello. Lou Costello would want to get Bud Abbott's attention when he was on trouble or scared on their movies abd he'd holler "Hey Abbott!"

Please please watch the original 1967 *The Producers* . It is Mel Brooks’ first and best film. I’m not certain why more people aren’t reacting to it - legendary film critic Roger Ebert thought it the greatest comedy of all time. I love your channel. Keep up the great work!

Dave Chappelle doing the Men in Tights sequence could honestly be taken as a comedian in a film just wanting to be involved with the joke. I've always loved this movie, I had a crush on Amy Yasbeck when I was a kid and I think Blinkin has the second coolest pair of shades, right behind Ozzy.

Fun fact that also makes some scenes even funnier is the guy who plays Little Johh, Eric Allan Kramer, was the first live action Marvel Thor in The Incredible Hulk Returns (1988). Being in my early teens when this came out seeing "Thor" thrashing around in a puddle had me dying. It's like if Lou Ferrigno jumped up on a chair screaming being scared of a mouse. 😆

Can't you see the tears we're cryin'? Can't there be some hap-pi-ness for me? Not in Nottingham♫♪ Oooo-de-lolly! Thank you for that, Simone. I love to see when other people remember that one.
