<p dir="auto">He wanted to do some more films but because the later ones didn't make as much money he couldn't find financing for them.</p>

<p dir="auto">I agree. That probably was the worst of all his films. I mean it wasn't completely bad. It just was the least funny I've seen from him. My top 3 favorite Brooks films are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Spaceballs</li>
<li>Robin Hood: Men In Tights</li>
<li>History Of The World Part I<br />
the three after them would be:</li>
<li>Life Stinks</li>
<li>Blazing Saddles</li>
<li>Young Frankenstein<br />
This guy had so much more he could have done as far as his creativity went, but I respect that with his wife being sick for so long then passing for the next 10 years after Dracula: Dead and Loving It, then her passing, he lost motivation to be that firm with pushing his ideas forward into more movies.<br />
I just love what he does with parody and film. I think his writing is some of the funniest in history and when it's his time to go, I will never forget that about him nor change that conclusion about him in my mind.</li>
</ol>

<p dir="auto">Definitely not his best but I still really like that film.</p>

<p dir="auto">It really is too bad though he let Dracula: Dead and Loving It of all things be his last film.</p>

<p dir="auto">For years he was working on The Producers and Young Frankenstein on Broadway but left when his wife passed away.  After that he now seems to do mainly voice work.  I think with him being almost 90 and his wife's death he decided it was time to step back.</p>
