46 Comments

1. Best movie

2. The Sheriff in this is the GOAT. He's just a fantastically written and performed character. 😂😂😂

3. Robin Hood was played by Cary Elwes, also known for roles in 'The Princess Bride' and 'Glory'.

4. If you want a mind mess go and watch the first SAW movie after seeing Carry Elweys in this and Princess Bride. 😅

5. This was made when we could still laugh at ourselves and not affend anyone. I really miss those days. First time I saw this movie I tried to count the number of times Prince John's mole moved but I lost count because I was laughing so much.

6. i really would love to see your reaction to spaceballs
   these 2 movies used to be my favorite when i was like 8-10 years old
   i havent seen them in at least 10 years
   thanks for reminding me that i should watch them again
   i used to watch them so many times that i knew almost every line hahah

7. I am not sure if it was brought up, but when they said to "fox them" , it is basically a ye olde spoof style of saying to "fax them".

8. Just want to say that as a Bears fan, I was rooting for the Bengals in '22

9. 39:28 you kids need to get it together and watch these movies in order.

10. This was a send up of Kevin Costner's Robin of Sherwood which came out shortly before this as well as The Godfather and Malcolm X. Also referenced was the assassination of JFK and the Rodney King beating by police officers. The joke about having an English accent was because Kevin Costner didn't sound English. You should watch Silent Movie as Dom DeLuise was so funny in it too.

11. I am happy of the both of you are enjoying this movie but you really need to watch the Kevin Costner Robin Hood from 1991 before watching this film because this film is more or less a parody of that specific Robin Hood film the scenes the jokes. 18:00 because Kevin Costner could not fake an English accent to save his life and he was the protagonist of the film surrounded by white guys who could do an English accent Morgan Freeman with a I want to say Middle Eastern accent and Kevin Costner Robin Hood was the only person throughout the whole film with an American accent . Robin Hood coming home to England and kissing the sand that was also in the Kevin Costner Robin Hood. The nasty looking witch. Robin Hood and little John fighting near a river a very large river people in the comment section tell these two they need to watch the Kevin Costner Robin Hood prince of thieves and then rewatch this film.

12. WARNING: Mel Brooks is a deep rabbit hole. I will explain.

    Mel is the king of Hollywood satire. As of 2022, parody movies (Scary Movie, A Haunted House, etc.) fall into two categories:
    1. Ripping off Mel Brooks.
    2. Ripping off Mel Brooks and lying about it.

    Most of his films poke fun at a specific genre. A few examples are Blazing Saddles (westerns), Young Frankenstein (the classic black and white Universal Studios horror movies), and Spaceballs (sci-fi space movies).

    Then there are movies that are funny versions aka "spoofs" of specific movies.
    1. This movie —> "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" with Kevin Costner.
    2. "Dracula: Dead and Loving It" —> "Bram Stoker's Dracula" with Gary Oldman and Keanu Reeves.
    3. "High Anxiety" —> Alfred Hitchcock's suspense films (particularly "Vertigo" and "Psycho").

    Lastly, he has a few films which (while being funny) are original stories that do not spoof anything. Check out "The Producers" (there are two versions. Mel wrote and directed both). And one more that NEVER gets enough credit is "Life Stinks," where Brooks plays a billionaire asshole who makes a bet with his rich friends that he can survive a month living as a homeless man.

    And yes, you can consider this comment a high recommendation for every movie I have listed.

    Like I said at the top: deep rabbit hole. Enjoy digging and have an amazing day!

13. OMG one of my favorites!!!!!!!

14. Mel Brooks has an Alfred Hitchcock parody called High Anxiety. It’s very funny.

15. Leggs brand panty hose used to come in a plastic easter egg type packaging.

16. Watch space balls and blazing saddles

17. The panty hose/tights in eggs are my favorite joke in this movie! In the 80s the panty hose brand L'eggs was super popular and the hose came in egg shaped containers. Its supposed to be a funny "modern" thing with everyone getting L'eggs hose to go into battle! 🤣🤣

18. My favorite movie ever. Thank you for watching this absolute classic

19. If you haven't seen it yet, plz check out "History of the World part 1". It's my absolute favorite Mel Brooks movie.

20. Please watch Real Genius! Lol you'll love it.

21. You haven't seen Blazing Saddles?? It's another Mel Brooks film. You've gotta see it!!

22. Please react to Dracula Dead and Loving It too! It's one of my favorite Mel Brooks movies 🤣🤣

23. "Unlike other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent" is poking fun at Kevin Costner for his Robin rendition in "Prince of Thieves."

24. I wonder how many retakes a movie like this takes because laughing

25. For another good movie with the guy playing robin hood, Cary elwes, check out Ella Enchanted (he plays the antagonist). He is also Jim Carrey's love rival in Liar Liar.

26. My fave of Mel Brooks is Young Frankenstein! He takes the horror classic and turns it into a penis joke! "Oh, sweet mystery of life, at last I found you!" LOL!

27. You should check out the movie Cannonball Run or any Mel Brooks movie like Blazing Saddles, History of the World Part One, or Young Frankenstein

28. I love your reactions but sometimes you make me feel so old. There was a pantyhose brand called Leggs which came in plastic eggs so that was the joke with the tights in eggs.

29. Young Frankenstein is a Mel Brooks film must see also.

30. Please, please, please do "Blazing Saddles", the funniest of the Mel Brooks movies! It is a "western" comedy and the source of the lines "A black sheriff?…Why not? It worked in 'Blazing Saddles'", which was spoken at the end of the Men In Tights movie. Blazing Saddles is not only hysterically silly, it is also a good buddy movie, and clever spoof against racism. A truly brilliant comedic film!

31. This is especially a parody of "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves"

32. This is my favorite kind of humor! So many movies use this silly type comedy. I Love it!

33. I still want you to do a movie with YOUR KIDS…. The Neverending Story.

34. I'd love to see y'all react to Pirates of Penzance if you haven't already seen it. It was originally an opera but they made a movie of it in 1982. It's super funny but I recommend subtitles, otherwise you might miss some of it

35. You have GOT to react to the movie Blazing Saddles!

36. Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are in my top 10 comedies. Mel Brooks has a great sense of humor. Gene Wilder stars in both and, he is genius.

37. try reviewing " moving violations" with Bill Murray's brother John Murray and Jennifer Tilly, it's a stupid funny 🍿 movie

38. Now, for THE Robin Hood movie, you need to see the 1938 film 'The Adventures of Robin Hood' starring Errol Flynn.

39. OMG YOU GUYS NEED TO WATCH BLAZING SADDLES!
    It made cinematic history for making a satire of racism, and is one of Mel Brooks's most famous films. I love it because it kinda goes, "HEY RACISTS! THIS IS HOW DUMB YOU LOOK!"
    XD

40. You guys mention Monty Python a bit, and I'm not sure what you mean. Monty Python's Flying Circus was a show on the BBC for several years, which led to some iconic sketches (the Dead Parrot sketch, for instance), but they also did a few movies (Holy Grail, The Life of Brian, and one other, I think, that I can't recall at the moment… or maybe not).

41. The Witch Happens to be the Voice of the Fairy God Mother in Shrek

42. You should of watched Robin Hood Prince of theves before watching this you'd get more of the jokes. Like the I can speak with an English accent Kevin costner was Robin and used an American accent.

43. U need to do blazing saddles……it's a racial satire from the 70s

44. You need to see both Blazing Saddles and Kevin Costner's Robin Hood: Peince of Thieves (esp for the British accent comment).

45. You guys really should've watched Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves first ;-P

46. A couple of things the Engl;ish accent line was taking a shot at the Kevin Costner Robin Hood amongst others, who didn't really have very good english accents in the films.

    Also, a very easy joke to miss towards the end of the film, is something most people will never get unless they were born in the 70s or 80s or earlier, unless they were into military history. In the archery contest the second arrow Robin shoots, if you pay attention and they do hold it for a few seconds, has the word Patriot on it. This is a reference to the first Iraq/Gulf war where Iraq invaded Kuwait in the early 90s. The Americans had a new missile called the Patriot missile, which had the smartest targetin via techniology the owrld had seen to date.
