Wow I had no idea he was that old. And only a few years ago he was trying to get a spaceballs sequel greenlit (and I believe he unfortunately failed). Kudos to him!
And they got Rick Moranis out of retirement to reprise his role as Dark Helmet, which is just delightful. I hope we see more of him in movies now that his children are grown.
Hope for the best, expect the worst. Some drink champagne, some die of thirst. No way of knowing which ways it's going...hope for the best, expect the worst
I can highly recommend the documentary Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man! What a legend, what a life.

If you can't get enough of Mel Brooks I'll also recommend the 2022 documentary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Automat

Happy birthday, Mr. Brooks.
"The funniest man who ever lived?" - I beg to differ.
That is Rik Mayall. Also, the sexiest.
Pity Rik didn't make it to 100 though. Would have loved to have seen another Bottom or two ..
