I just pulled up the list, Kevin; it's been quite a while since I saw it, and it seems a lot of movies have been counted since I last perused it - BL (with 260 Fs) is now #14.  Pulp Fiction (265) & Reservoir Dogs 269) are 13 & 12.  The current leader is an eponymous documentary on the word, whose 824 uses & 8.86 uses per minute both pretty much quadruple Lebowski's not-inconsiderable totals.  It was a tough challenge - but by God, they went out and achieved anyway- without the use of their limbs, which some Chinaman took from them in Korea!

It's easily my favorite movie, and perhaps the greatest achievement of western civilization, just edging out the renaissance.
 
Finally, we're talking sensibly.

About 15 years ago, when I was living still in Italy, I acted in a theatrical play which was based on this movie. I was the austrian police commander with the mechanical arm. I made those movement so well that people cracked up especially when it got stuck hahaha

Young Frankenstein is definitely one of my favorites. I haven't seen it in a while and need to pull it out of the archive.
 
I just want to add something about the censorship comments. I think we all have tendency to forget this is not a private board but is being provided by a business. This means, rightly or wrongly, that this board is a reflection of the company. Given this business orientation I think it is perfectly acceptable to have limits placed on the subject matter that can be discussed here.

I agree that Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles are true classics. Personally, I find The Princess Bride to be one of my favorites for hilarious quotes.  
 
Inigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.  
Fezzik: Fuss, fuss... I think he like to scream at *us*.  
Inigo Montoya: Probably he means no *harm*.  
Fezzik: He's really very short on *charm*.  
Inigo Montoya: You have a great gift for rhyme.  
Fezzik: Yes, yes, some of the time.  
Vizzini: Enough of that.  
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?  
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead.  
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it.  
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?  
Vizzini: DYEEAAHHHHHH.

Talk about derailing a thread. By the way, Marty Feldman is my Favorite actor of all time. How about The last remake of Beau Geste? Classic.

Probably we (I) shouldn't even mention Putney Swope...

Back to the origin of this thread - Yes, I got political, knew it, and backed off when told to.  My bad, but harm was meant to no one who sets foot on this site, or to much of those who don't.  So no big deal.  It was a crime of passion.  At least that what I am sticking with . . .
