Which I guess makes as much sense.

I've always assumed that the hissing was the audience's way of letting Frederick know that they didn't like him (because of what his ancestors had done) and wanted him to get off the stage. Also, I took the "scientits' "theory" as a joke (though it WOULD be pretty funny if Freddy really HAD almost called his colleagues "scientits"!).

my fellow scien ssss tists my fellow scien TITS notice no s so obviously they were reminding him of a previous time when he forgot the s and said tits instead of tists .. arent i a geniu ssssss

To hiss at someone in a theater is to communicate dissaproval from the audience to the communicator/actor/performer on stage. Older crowds would recognize and the humor of the the scene was much more relavent 38 years ago.

Beginning in the 12th century when the country was in need of highly skilled citizens, settlers from Germany immigrated to the area in and around Transylvania. They were known as Transylvanian Saxons.

What I don't understand is that the characters are supposed to be German, but the REAL Transylvania is what is now called Romaniatotally different country.

i agree - one of these years i plan to not bother with it - ever

Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought an idiot - than to open it and remove all doubt!

You are a complete moron. Recycling is processing used materials (waste) into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials. It has NOTHING to do with being an old joke or age. They used a joke in one film then turned around in another film they were making and did the same joke. That IS recycling a joke. The films do not have to be years apart or even months.

Yeah like I said. And that is age. If you "reuse" something that means the first time it was used was older than when it was reused, hence the "re". And if both movies were from 1974 Brooks wasn't reusing anything.
Again, J McClane, get off my nuts.

To recycle something means you borrowed an old joke
No it does not, age has nothing to do with it.
Recycle means to simply to use again in the original form or with minimal alteration.
Jesus died for our sins. As he's already deadsin away.

Um yes it does. To recycle something means you borrowed an old joke like, say, in Robin Hood Men IN Tights (bad movie) the mole was moving around like Igor's hump was. But how can you recycle a joke when both movies were from the same time?

I took it as them expressing displeasure at his including himself in their elite group as he was seen as a quack and not a "fellow scientist."

Young Frankenstein is my favorite Mel Brooks movie, but, one of my favorite parts from Blazing Saddles
Dancers- "YESSSSS!"
Dom Deluise- "Sounds like steam escaping!"
For some reason, I always hear it in my mind with a lisp"Thounds like theam ethcaping!"

I used to think Frederick was having a hard time pronouncing scientists, and he made the "ssss" sound.
But yeah, someone's heckling him.

When I mean recycled, I mean recycled as from a previous film. Yes, both films came out the same year, but that's not relevant.

Blazing Saddles was released before Young Frankenstein. I remember because I saw them both when they were first released.
"Joey, have you ever been in a Turkish prison?"

That doesn't matter-it being the same year.

^ This. Without question.
