Hooper was filmed in Tuscaloosa. It was where University Mall is today. It was Northington General Hospital (from WW2) and the movie people blew up everything prior to the mall being built.
I remember watching them film the chase scene with everything blowing up, smoke stacks falling. It was pretty cool. I also remember them stuffing a bunch of explosives under a VW bug and blowing it about 50 feet in the air.

Blazing Saddles had its first screening at Burbank’s Pickwick Drive-in on February 7, 1974. In keeping with the Western theme, only those on horseback were allowed in. Even Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder showed up riding horses.

She drank hard liquor, smoked cigars, carried a 10 gauge shotgun and a .38 Smith & Wesson, gambled, fought duels, punched out men as an old woman, and received special permission from the mayor of Cascade to be served in any bar.
I think The Dollop podcast did an episode on her.
