Oh man, are you kidding, everyone and their brother is in this one! The Three Stooges are even in it, lol
As for the movie itself, I think it was made at just the right time, because most of the stars (like Buster Keaton) were big-name stars 25-30 years before, (and in silent movies) and seeing them on the big screen in later years was probably a big treat for the moviegoers of the day. Not only that but it's damn funny too!
