The Producers part 2(The King Of Broadway)

[NekoPlusInu]

"There was a time when I was young and gay- but straight!" I love that, especially considering the actors sexuality xD I can't help but crack a smile

[JOKER3852]

Leo: Oh, how I hate you!!!

Max: Double! Double! Double!

[norfolk316]

Am I the only one that prefers Nathan Lane's Max Bilaystock over Zero Mostel's? Nathan Lane portrays Max as manipulative,dishonest,but by the end genuinely caring about Leo and secretly emotionally needy and desiring the recognition he once enjoyed. I personally find Nathan's version a much more paltable version of Max and a more loveable con-man character.

[Via1tunes]

@norfolk316 no i prefer hin and mathhew better than gene and zero

[xMadamxRaynax]

I was gay! but straight! XD we know max ^.^

[v1de0gamr]

2 people don't think it's good to be the king.

[izzyfromWCS]

@ 3:31 - when nathan lane says - "who do you have to f* to get a break in this town?!"

- was not originally in the script, or written by mel brooks, - during rehersal , before opening night, nathan lane said that as a joke, and it went over very well, so they just added to the script

[Owiion]

@izzyfromWCS Opening niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

:- )

[Ademis]

what is a zigfeld?

[digikate813]

@Ademis Flo Ziegfeld was a famous broadway producer in the first half of the 20th century.

He had a certain style, so that's probably what Max is reffering to.

[reilly500]

I don't get the "It's good to be the king" bit.

[TheSoulMan8]

@reilly500 it's a reference to Mel Brook's a History of the World Part 1

[Jen24601]

@TheSoulMan8 @reilly500 Also referenced in Men in Tights (line of Patrick Stewart's as King Richard)

[catherinet227]

i love the part starting at 3:35... amazing music!

[scurvytoon]

The Yiddish means I believe roughly according to my mother.... Max, Eventually every man has to take a shit. and than garbled ramblings that don't really mean anything.

[Steamrunner92]

@scurvytoon On behalf of everyone else, I thank your mother for the translation. Whether it's accurate or not, it certainly sounds like a Mel Brooks line!

[awbananna]

@scurvytoon That is great! I have no way to check the accuracy, but it certainly sounds like Mel Brooks.

Only makes this song worth listening to all that much more!

[MoonyMidnight]

There was a time

When I was young and gay

(But strait!)

I love that and the Yiddish thing are my favorite!

[sonicx666]

LOVE THIS SONG!

Reminds me a bit of Reviewing the Situation from Oliver! Slightly!

[stuffunoob]

lol this is such a jew song

producers is amazing

[AustralianHPfan]

*unintelligable yiddish sounding stuff*

"...what does that mean?"

"how should i know? I don't speak yiddish - strangely enough, neither did he."

my fav bit :D

[wweecw1]

[AustralianHPfan]

Love natha lane,he rocks!!!

[MikeTooleK9S]

What a bum

[jackskellingtonsora]

Who do you have to fuck to get a break in this stinken town!

lol

[Jono24X]

I wondered why this song was cut from our production of this playat my school, and now I know why...lol. Still, the whole play is contraversal for school. =D

[tormentedmusician23]

when are you coming to rehearsals, speaking of the producers?

[superchuk5]

yeah, most annoying thing is when movie adaptations of musicals cut good songs out

[jackskellingtonsora]

It's in the deleted scenes on the DVD.

[JHBackingTracks]

i know its on deleted scenes, that still makes it a shame it was not in the movie, it would of fit perfectly, when you see how they just finish singing opening night, it links so good. much better than a cross fade to max's office, i think anyway!!

[jackskellingtonsora]

Definitly agreed. This song works very well right after Opening Night.

[hiphopdancer1114]

i was gay but still straight  LOL

[xAcexofxKings]

hey its timon frm lion king xDD

[Duoed]

Lol "Its good to be the king"

Mel Brooks, History of the World Part 1

[v1de0gamr]

And just about every other Mel Brooks film :)

[shikamaruman100]

[MarcusSLazarus]

Ah, I've always loved that 'I don't speak Yiddish... come to think of it, neither did he' line; now THAT is humour!

[louisvuittonswicked]

[TheSoulMan8]

[oohcool]

It was cut in the final product, but it's in the deleted scenes on the dvd

[AiressTaylor]

[longt1]

[y05dstrid]

My school did do it and i played franz leapkan (dont remember how its spelt)

[oohcool]

I'm shocked that a school would do this lol

[AiressTaylor]

[WooTaShooTa]
