The movie Blazing Saddles (1974) is a comedy classic. Many people say that the movie couldn’t be made today because some of the humor is not “politically correct” and could potentially offend someone. There is an anti-joke to this statement.

No, it’s hard to make a film in a day, and it’s already half one.

That reminds me of why Blazing Saddles could never be made today. If you gave the script of Blazing Saddles to a movie exec nowadays, they would look at it and say, “We can’t make this, it’s just Blazing Saddles. It’s already been made.”
