'A Zulu regiment can run fifty miles in a day and fight a battle at the end of it'
'That's daft. I don't see no sense in running to fight a battle.'
Has to be one of the best films ever.

'independent, fire at will'
always expect the soldier to say..."poor will, why pick on him":ner: aka carry on up kyber.
If it's a miracle, Colour Sergeant, it's a short-chambered, Boxer-Henry .45 calibre miracle.
vast majority of the men weren't welsh either, although the film gives that impression. Baker and Chard both died of cancer at about same age surprisingly as both were heavy smokers. Baker owned, what he thought was a copy of Chard's VC, and after he died it proved to be authentic after tests.

Cleavon Little was not warned about the "you know. . . . morons" line. His reaction was real.
While filming, Burton Gilliam (Lyle, the henchman of Taggart (Slim Pickens)) was having a difficult time saying the word "nigger", especially to Cleavon Little, because he really liked him. Finally, after several takes, Little took Gilliam off to the side and told him it was okay because these weren't his words. Little jokingly added, "If I thought you would say those words to me in any other situation we'd go to fist city, but this is all fun. Don't worry about it."
After promising Warner Brothers that he would edit out several "offensive" scenes, such as the infamous farting sequence, Mel Brooks never cut a single scene except one: after the room is darkened and Lilly (Madeline Kahn) informs Bart "It's TWUE! It's TWUE!," Bart (Cleavon Little) quietly states, "You're sucking on my arm." The scene was later added back to the home video release.
''Well, they've got a very good bass section, mind, but no top tenors that's for sure''

The McDowell's restaurant was actually a Wendy's on Queens Boulevard that was scheduled to be closed for renovation. The production had approval from McDonald's corporate headquarters, which apparently didn't pass the word down to their local outlets. On the day the McDowell's sign went up, the manager of the McDonald's one half mile up the road arrived with his lawyer and took photographs, telling the set dressing crew they were going to be sued for everything they were worth. The restaurant remained in business until early 2013.
Most of the dance performed by the royal dancers before presenting Prince Akeem's queen-to-be is a high-tempo rendition of the dance from Michael Jackson: Thriller (1983).
The barbers call Akeem "Kunta Kinte." John Amos played the adult Kunta Kinte in Roots (1977). Madge Sinclair played Kunta Kinte's wife, and James Earl Jones played Alex Haley, Jr. in Roots: The Next Generations (1979).
When King Jaffe Joffer ( James Earl Jones ) comes looking for his son Akeem at McDowell's restaurant, his line "No. Do not alert him to my presence. I shall deal with him myself" is a homage to Darth Vader (who is voiced by Jones) who in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (1983) has a similar line, "No. Leave them to me. I will deal with them myself". In Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Vader (Jones) kills an admiral for an error, saying, "They have been alerted to your presence."
Agreed - I have a copy somewhere.Quote:
