I was surprised by this factoid and tried to guess which categories the movie was nominated for.

I guessed song, screenplay, and costumes…?

Without looking what would you guess?

Feel strongly about screenplay.

Then throw in some editing or sound nomination.

All I recall is Best Supporting Actress for Madeline Kahn, but I'd also guess Best Original Screenplay and Best Original Song.

Naturally, the academy would not let them win any of their awards, so they made up their own.

Young Frankenstein also had two nominations in the same year.

I may be an anomaly, but Saddles and Frankenstein were pure genius. But in my opinion, the rest of his movies were just dumb (yes...even Spaceballs).

Pretty much agree, history of the world is overrated, Spaceballs stinks.

High anxiety was decent, Silent Movie was ok.

Men in tights…oof.

Never saw the Producers.

Ya...forgot about History of the World. It had some good bits, but no where near the level of BS and YF.

I agree. Those 2 were genius, and so well-done. The others - meh. I really tried to like Spaceballs, but apart from a few chuckles, it just wasn't good.

Spaceballs is great. As is Men in Tights.
Cary Elwes is a (Inter)national treasure.
Let's go, Brandon!

The Producers was genius. Plus, it introduced the world to Kenny Mars. And Brooks was smart enough to use him again.
