The Muppet Movie... ah the benefits of getting up early and beating everyone to the punch.

How did Young Frankenstein make your top 5 on of Mel Brook's friends but not on Mel Brooks? My Mel Brooks top five would read HotW, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, Robin Hood, then Spaceballs.

Nice class, CMorin.

Mel Brooks doesn't actually act in Young Frankenstein, and I was just going with movies each person acted in.

Outstanding job on knowing your marionette/puppets.

I knew that as soon as I saw both Steve Martin and Mel Brooks besides the fact that the only two movies I could name with heaps of small cameos are Blues Brothers and the Muppet Movie.

Outstanding logic, Rejecht.
