This is offensive, misses the mark completely Blazing Saddles continues to be one of the funniest (for the wrong reasons, that’s the point) but best social commentary on the stupidity of Racism. To dumb it down to cartoon characters is a social commentary on the audience acceptance of being spoon feed mental mush in the guise of social commentary, I guess.

Unless a cowboy asks for dimes at a toll booth in the middle of the desert, guys rescue a push cart from quicksand over saving a "worker" or the characters start going off with "The Camp Town Ladies," there is no Blazing Saddles.

OTOH, “In case of emergency, break paper” is kinda funny.

They should have called it eyes of fury. What’s with those huge EYES for preteens that’s usually used to hypnotize the youngins?
