    That’s like saying Tropic Thunder aged poorly, the point of the racism is to mock it. Which for the time I think blazing saddles was pretty progressive in that regard.

      Which is exactly why I said the language and the message were fine? The language definitely isn’t something that is acceptable in movies today, even in mocking. And I would say the same thing about Tropic Thunder, though not to the same degree.

      I love both movies, I want to be clear.
