I am reading Tim Curry’s 2025 memoir, Vagabond

and in it, he not only devotes a chapter to Muppet Treasure Island, but also references this very post

so, to recap

no, Tim Curry is absolutely NOT a Muppet; however

BLAZING SADDLES (1974)

take place at the Pickwick Drive-In Theater in Burbank — L.A. for 250 invited guests - ALL ON HORSEBACK.

In The Garden of Earthly Delights, the triptych by Hieronymus Bosch, there is some music written on the butt of one of the tormented. The music was transcribed by Amelia Hamrick. It then was arranged and performed by James Spalink. It was arranged as would have been the style in the 15th Century when the painting was completed. It sounds like this:

IT HAS

- a dumbass guy who is completely infatuated with his girlfriend

- a cunning clever girlfriend who is equally infatuated with him

- lead two actors are MARRIED

- pretty good down syndrome representation (adult with down syndrome is left to care for a house, treated as an adult, shown as intelligent compared to the dumbass main character, is also a very good character and i love him very much)

- very good gags (*takes back banana* i'm taking this one, because here you're all 'nom nom nom' (i promise it's funny in context))

- the cutest almost-sex scene i've ever seen

- IT HAS NICOLETTA BRASCHI IN IT (<- beautiful woman, talented actress)

- it's highly comedic

- DID I MENTION TORTIE CAT GF AND ORANGE CAT BF

- seriously they are so so good everybody should watch this film

Question: What is the greatest magic of all? Answer: Friendship, right? [B]: The greatest magic of all is not friendship, it's chronomancy, the ability to control and warp time. If friendship were the greatest magic, look, it's a pet peeve of mine (...)

You can’t just like the idea and envision yourself in one of these roles you have to figure out how to be about it ♥️🫶🏽
