Happy 100 Birthday, @MelBrooks! ๐
Robin Hood: Men in Tights was the very first film I ever saw in a cinema as a kid, and it absolutely blew my mind โ the jokes, the songs, the sheer chaotic brilliance had me hooked from the opening credits. You make the world a funnier and brighter place. Thank you for the laughter, legend. Long may you reign for another 100yrs!

โVigilante revenge flicks like 70s blaxploitation (Black vets vs KKK) & PTAโs โOne Battle After Anotherโ revolutionary left fantasies get praised by the Left as โpunching up.โ Imagine a modern one with a Black vigilante killing skinheads/right-wingers in Americaโ itโd be hailed as a masterpiece. But Uwe Bollโs Citizen Vigilante (Armie Hammer vs real migrant crime) gets banned & called xenophobic. Same Death Wish power fantasy, different targets. The hypocrisy is glaring. Real systems failing demand real catharsis.

@Gavin_McInnes So glad you uploaded this on @censoreddottv โ Iโve always wanted to see it. It would be awesome if you did a watch-along on #GOML. I loved watching #OneBattleAfterAnother with your commentary; Iโd never have watched it otherwise.
