Loved High Anxiety...

I got it, I got it, I got it...I don't got it!

Agreed, bjensen4. High Anxiety is my favorite Brooks film.

It's hard to pick the other two spots, but I'd say:

The Producers
Blazing Saddles

12 Chairs might be up there. I was really too young when I saw it, but I have a feeling if I saw it again as an adult, I'd appreciate it more.

Not a film, but much more. I have always thought Get Smart is among his finest creative work.

My favorites are:

'Spaceballs'
'Young Frankenstein'
'History of the World"

Edit: 'Life Stinks' would get honorable mention. Hillarious.

C’mon, Saddles is #1! It’s both hilarious and manages to fit in the greatest anti-racism message in the history of Hollywood, since it’s done with humor rather than a sledgehammer.
#2 is Frankenstein
Everything else is tied for #3, none of it holds up quite as well……
