'Blazing Saddles' & 'Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory' Return To Theaters This Weekend

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Blazing Saddles in theaters

Earlier this week we found out the sad news that comedy legend Gene Wilder had passed away at 83 years old due to complications from Alzheimer's disease. Fellow actors, comedians, filmmakers and fans have been paying tribute to Gene Wilder all over the web, and now movie theaters are offering the chance to celebrate the man's life by enjoying two of his most iconic roles on the big screen again.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Blazing Saddles will both return to select AMC Theatres locations for this weekend only. Since neither of these titles are readily available on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime for free, this might be your best way to experience the classic films and enjoy them with fellow comedy lovers and Gene Wilder fans.

Get the full list of locations where you can see Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Blazing Saddles in theaters after the jump.

At all locations, on Saturday, September 3rd and Sunday, September 4th, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory will play at 5pm while Blazing Saddles will play at 7:30pm. And the good news is that tickets for each are only $5. That sounds like one hell of a double feature.

If you don't live near any of these AMC Theatres locations, you should check your local listings, because Variety says there are also 145 non-AMC locations that will be playing Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory as well. There are probably plenty also playing Blazing Saddles as well and maybe even Young Frankenstein too.
