Wicked is doing another "30 days - 30 news" announcement round, and I thought, why not share with you all the information as early as possible, so when the time comes, I just need to add the specific data still missing. Their second announcement is the 45th anniversary edition of a comedy movie:

 

SILENT MOVIE is a satirical comedy written, and directed by Mel Brooks (Spaceballs, Robin Hood: Men in tights, Dracula: Dead and Loving), who is also starring in this 1976 movie, that is produced in the manner of silent film and makes fun of typical slapstick silent film comedies, such as those by Charlie Chaplin.
 

There is no additional information as of now. This might even not be a Mediabook - for their first announcement they used a couple of tags including #Mediabook, which is missing for this (and the next) release. I don't know if that is intentional, or just negligence, but in my opinion this title does not really fit to their Mediabook lineup. Judging from already released titles I could see this one besides the 30th Anniversary Edition of Wicked Visions Cadillac Man release, which was a Scanavo fullsleeve keepcase; in that case this would be a single or dual disk release, with a booklet. Let's see - if this is the case for this release as well, I'll ask a moderator to move it to the other section, but for now, as Wicked Vison is mainly a Mediabook label, I'll keep it here for the sake of the doubt.

 

Here's the trailer:

To be quite honest, this is absolutely not my cup of tea. I've seen (larger) parts of Robin Hood, Dracula and Space Ball, and did not like any of them, so I do not know what to make of this title... I am not big on comedy anyways, so....

What do you think? Do you know the movie? Is it worth watching and owning?
