Leave well enough alone, Mel Brooks!
You are never going to have the kind of success you had with The Producers! Stop ruining your movies!
Guess he can’t hear us…
Mel Brooks is taking his classic flick Blazing Saddles and is putting it to music for a new stage production. At present, it is said that the funnyman has penned two musical numbers for the show and is in the middle of a third.
In a recent interview, Mel confessed that he wouldn’t be rushing the production to New York once it is completed for fear of what the NYT will say. He explained:
“If I did it, I wouldn’t rush to New York with it because the Times (newspaper) would say, ‘Oh dear, oh dear, another movie converted and transmogrified into a musical… The Times was only lukewarm to Young Frankenstein.”
Their reaction was a reflection of the show itself. No doubt, they will have the same reaction to this newest venture.
Besides, there will never be another Madeline Kahn.
What do U think?
