Useless trivia: about the Alien reference ...... the actor who had the alien pop out of him was actor John Hurt, who had the same thing happen to him in the movie "Alien", hence his line, "Oh no, not again ..."
@Spooky Mulder Given that she specifically states that she has already seen Alien once, not really. Unless you mean a spoiler to all the people in the comments section, in which case I have to say that since the movie is from 1979, it may be a bit late to complain about spoilers.
Not useless at all. :)
Wishbone1977 he doesn’t say it was a spoiler though 😂 read before you lecture
He was also the voice of Hazel in Watership Down, which means he's also had buckshot pecked out of his leg by a seagull.
Not a useless fact at all, never undersell that tidbit again
"We ain't found shit" - Best line in any movie
That was Tim Russ, who played Tuvok in Star Trek Voyager
"OUT OF ORDER?!" "Fuck! Even in the FUTURE, nothin' works!"
@@vodengc520 "We aren't living in the past or the present anymore. This is the FUTURE!" - "... huh?"
Yes! I absolutely lost it the 1st time I saw that! LOL
It's such an amazing line. And how to the shot just holds for a few seconds afterwards... I love it
Mel Brooks said that if he thought he could get away with it _Spaceballs_ would have been two hours of just that ship passing by.
That is brilliant.
Fun fact: The dolls scene was, in its entirety, *ad-libbed,* on the spot, in a single take.
While Rick Moranis was feeling ill!
Pure genius scene
Lol
Fun fact the reason why they joked about merchandise so much when there was none to be had was due to copyright. The only way mel Brooks could make this movie and parody so much from star wars was because George Lucas gave him the go ahead on the agreement that there would be no merchandise due to the powers that be thinking parents would get confused and buy spaceballs actionfigures instead of star wars cutting into their sales.
@@Indy509 Actually, it was my understanding that Lucas said "No action figures." And that it was never Brooks' intention to merchandise Spaceballs, but he took a jab at Lucas' merchandising of Star Wars anyway.
@@Indy509 yup, george lucas said no merchandise, cuz the characters (obviously) looked too close to their counterparts :V... the agreement, came to be, because Mel Brooks hired ILM for the special effects ( owned by ... none other than George Lucas)
Nat: "What if he's like the Han/Luke character? What if he's Dark Helmet's son?"
Nope. Just his father's brothers nephew's cousin's former roommate.
His father's brother's nephew could well be himself, so Dark Helmet might have been his former roommate.
In other words, nothing.
@@jbrisby *absolutely nothing
Lone Star: And what does that make us?
Dark Helmet: Absolutely nothing!
"God willing we meet again in Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money"
-Yogurt, Spaceballs (1987)
They should have released before that 'Spaceballs 3: In Search of Spaceballs 2"
Spaceballs 2 would be perfect to reference the prequels, which is a perfect parallel to searching for more money.
Mike Aninger r/thatsthejoke
There was a rumour at the time that the sequel would be called “Spaceballs 3: the search for Spaceballs: 2”
@@s.anthonyulibarri2488 I heard the sequel was going to be called
my favorite trivia about this movie: When Mel asked Lucas if he could shoot a parody, he agreed on the sole condition that he did not sell merchandise. So, since Mel couldn't sell merch outside the movie, he put it all IN the movie. And then, of course, went overboard. I Love Mel Brooks!
I think also he asked for ILM to do the effects as well if I recall watching a fun fact video, and that was one of the conditions of no merchandise. Which is a shame, I really wanted that flame thrower.. 😂
I thought parody was protected? Why did Mel need George’s permission? SNL parodies everything all the time.
@@Orangeflava He didn't 'need' it, he wanted it. He was being professional.
@@Briansgate oh okay. Cool. Class act.
@@Orangeflava Weird Al does the same thing with parody songs.
"This is my Virgin Alarm. It's programmed to go off before you do."
- One of the most underrated lines in this crazy movie
-Dot Matrix, 1969
13:28 Even though they mention 'Spaceballs 2: The Search for more Money' in the script, Mel Brooks once said he wasn't too interested in making the second movie but he was interested in making the third movie 'Spaceballs 3: The Search for Spaceballs 2'
I'd ask Rick Moranis's kids if any of them wanted to star in Spaceballs 3, and give them the role of Kylo Helmet.
LOL Disney made Spaceballs 2 Search for More Money, three times over.
agenttheater5 Just like History of the World Part 1. Part 2 was never made. All part of the joke.
Same goes for the _Loaded Weapon 1_ parody of Lethal Weapon
If I remember correctly, Mel Brooks wanted to get George Lucas' blessing before making the movie but Lucas only let him do it on the condition that there would be no merchandising which is why it's such a huge running joke in the movie.
It's also why to this day, you can't find a Spaceballs flamethrower.
No shit! You learn something new everyday.
Although I did see an ad online for a Spaceballs the Face Mask. I'm half tempted to buy it.
Kind of a shitty move by Lucas if you ask me... If anyone is aware of how much money can be made from merchandising, it's George Lucas. He knew exactly what he was doing when making this condition.
Moichendizing, moichendizing, moichendizing!
If you’ve never seen The Princess Bride you must watch it. It’s an all time classic and would be a riot to watch you react to it.
A great recommendation. If she enjoys movies like this I'm sure she'd love it
Great suggestion. The Princess Bride is an unmitigated classic.
Watched it for the first time a year ago. Boring and stupid. Completely overrated.
I'd love to see her do The Princess Bride.
@@robertcorbett9455 your opinion..... it's in the minority
I love that John Hurt reprised his role from Alien's Chestburster scene.
The man will always have my respect for doing what essentially was a parody of himself.
And Ripley too
I would love to see a watchmojo countdown of actors who have parodied their own performances. Two that I can think of are John Hurt and Richard Crenna.
@@davidstowers1964 And the Michigan Frog bit was just the icing on the cake for that scene.
In addition to Richard Crenna, "Hot Shots Part Deux" also had Martin Sheen reprising his role from "Apocalypse Now." Also having Lloyd Bridges diving in a wet suit was likely a parody of his old "Sea Hunt" TV show.
I always wondered if it was the same actor, and you confirmed it!
My dad was that person that rented this movie for me thinking it was the Star Wars movie I was talking about. Best. Day. Ever!!
For real, Same thing here !
I imagine this is what it’s like to overdose on acid and then watch Star Wars. Like you just see this.
not gonna lie, spaceballs was the first "star wars" movie i ever watched, and the irony is, when i did watch a new hope, i kinda got bored as i didnt like it as much...
I got to see this on the big screen when it was first released. I think it was at the Heritage Park Mall in Midwest City, Oklahoma.
"The ship is too big, if I walk, the movie would be over." Love that part.
"I'm a Mog. Half Man, Half Dog. I'm my own best friend."
"What's your name?"
"Barf"
"Full name"
"Barfolomew"
LOL
@@fubar1217 Not in here, mister! This is a Mercedes!
I miss John Candy 😭😭
One of the greatest lines in the movie 🎥
"Is there a Spaceballs 2?"
There is a joke about making a sequel in every Mel Brooks movie and he has never done one. One of them is even called "History of The World Part I" and there's no part two.
I thought it was History of the World Part II with there. Being no one.
Otter_Boom No, you’re having a Mengele effect about the Mandela effect.
The funny thing to me about this was that for a few years a rumor about him making Spaceballs 3- The search for Spaceballs 2.
Spaceballs 3 , the Search for Spaceballs 2
There is actually a Spaceballs animated tv series, that parodies the prequels, the matrix and other scifi, it's not as on point as the movie, but not bad
" Good thing he's not Prince Viagra" - and Natalie proves she's totally cut out for the kind of humor this movie provides.
Prince Viagra might have been the case had the drug been invented when Spaceballs was made.
also, princess Vespa, vespa in italian is wasp.
Takes a sip afterwards
I don't know, I think princess Vespa might have been thrilled at the idea of marrying a handsome prince named Viagra! (she certainly wouldn't have been 'neglected' in that marriage!) ;)
Also, I agree, Natalie is totally in sync with this, old style, corny, goofy humor style.
(her reactions today, are the same as mine were long ago, in a theatre far, far away)
@@PrvtGeek It's also a scooter. 🛵
Fun Fact! When Mel Brooks presented his idea for "Spaceballs" to George Lucas, he was so enthusiastic that his company ILM took over the special effects for Spaceballs.
Dot Matrix was a type of printer in the 80s. Twas a joke that would’ve been funnier then
Yeah, and I paid $400 for mine...
Dot Matrix is also one of the main characters in the computer-animated series ReBoot.
@@Gameflyer001 which is also based on said printer...
@@Gameflyer001 alphanumeric...!
Very noisy printers.
“What’s the matter, Colonel Sanders!? Chicken?!?”
it took me YEARS to understand that joke hhahahahhahah xD
That line was so dumb that it was hilarious.
Oh wow I've been watching this movie for years and never connected those words 😂 totally went over my head
The great thing about Spaceballs is that it's completely unabashed about being frustratingly dumb. I love it with every fiber of my being.
Evil will always triumph over good, because good is dumb.
"Spaceballs" is a glorious euphoria of bad jokes. It's such goofy bliss.
In my opinion it was kind of trash
I don't feel that it has held up well.
I think Airplane and The Naked Gun are funnier. I'd love to see someone in their 20's react to those and we'll see how well the humor has held up.
Airplane is possibly even sillier and stupider than Spaceballs, but they throw so many joke at you that even if only 25% of them succeed, you're still having a good time.
my favorite moments are when the characters do or have something dumb.
Examples:
Dot Matrix has a Virgin Alarm Installed in her
Dark Helmet... well there are many reasons why he's the best.
Barf is his own best friend
Every guy on Dark Helmets ship is an A$$hole.
President Sroob has a combination on his luggage that goes "1, 2, 3, 4, 5"
And so on.
Fun fact: the scene you said that was starting to look like Wizard of Oz, was actually shot on the same sound stage that that scene from Wizard of Oz was shot. Spaceballs was also the last movie shot on this sound stage before it was demolished.
"What the hell am I looking at, when does this happen in the movie?"
"Now sir, you're looking at now. Everything that's happening now is happening now."
"What happened to then?"
"We passed it."
"When?"
"Just now. We're at now now."
"Well go back to then."
"When?"
"Now!"
"Now?"
"Now!"
"I can't."
"Why?"
"We passed it"
"When?"
"Just now."
Toto, I don't think Who is on first anymore.
it's like the classic Abbot and Costello routine "Who's On First?"
When will then be now?
@@1GuyWith6Guns ...Now. (but Who is on First?)
@@mmarvel2003 ...How soon?
I lost it when she said "his helmet is so big" about 30 minutes before the line happens in the movie!
I can't even look at Rick Moranis without cracking up after this movie.
My sister and I were watching SW Episode III in the cinema. When the big dramatic scene when we hear Darth Vader's breathing apparatus for the first time both of us had to stop ourselves from bursting out laughing because it reminded us of the "I can't breathe in this thing!"-line. So, yeah, Episode III will always remind us of Space Balls. :)
YES, finally some Mel Brooks. Once again going to put out Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. Maybe I'll have to join Patreon to get them in the polls
Blazing Saddles? Natalie's fragile brain would explode.
Robin Hood: Men in Tights.
Young Frankenstein is a must.
Personally, the two greatest comedies right there.
Blazing Saddles is one of the best movies ever.
Robin Hood: Men in Tights is made by the same director and is like this movie if not funnier.
GOD, MEN IN THIGHTS IS HILARIOUS AF XD
She definitely needs to watch that one!
_Young Frankenstein_ is a big one... and _Blazing Saddles_ ...
Also high anxiety andTo Be or Not to Be.
Really? Mel Brooks made that?
So now you know why a Tesla's sport mode is called "Ludicrous Speed"
We have Tesla t-shirts that say we've gone to plaid.
If you haven’t seen it yet The Princess Bride is phenomenal comedy gold.
It’s the perfect movie
Does she look like someone who hasn't watched Princess Bride at least 10 times already?
I vote for this
The Princess Bride is my all time favorite movie!! Great movie, and great for the whole family!
@@vwlssnvwls3262 I concur one of the greatest movies ever made
Combing the desert will always, always make me laugh. It's so gleefully dumb.
We ain't found shit.
@@MrSurabane The guy who delivers that line? Commander Tuvok of the USS Voyager!
Classic 80’s comedy that never gets old and not makes people laugh. Still one of my all time favorites.
Natalie, if you liked this, you NEED to watch Robin Hood Men in Tights. It is also directed by Mel Brooks, and is soooooooo funny!!!!!!!
If this was your first dose of John Candy, I highly recommend you dive in further. Uncle Buck is probably his best film, but you really can't go wrong with any of them.
Also, fun bit of trivia, in this film, Bill Pullman's Winnebago is Eagle 5. In Independence Day, his call sign as a pilot is Eagle 1.
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles I think is peak Candy.
Cool Runnings! That was one of my favourite movies when I was a kid.
@@vampdan great match up of actors for sure.
The great out doors
Johnny Le rough on sctv was also a great part for him
Really glad you enjoyed Spaceballs :) it’s pure, silly fun. When you’re looking for another Mel Brooks comedy, I’d definitely recommend Robin Hood: Men in Tights, or if you’re feeling adventurous, Blazing Saddles.
Blazing Saddles will absolutely be a shock to the system I think. It’s very much one of Mel Brooks’ edgier works, and certainly not something that could ever be made today (despite, personally thinking that we need a new movie like it more than ever).
Looking forward to seeing you watch Alien, and hopefully Aliens not long after. They are two absolutely classic movies, and gave us one of the most badass women in film in the form of Ellen Ripley. Sigourney Weaver is such a fantastic actress, and gives an incredibly powerful performance in the role, especially in Aliens.
I love Men in Tights so much. It’s just so darn fun.
Also Young Frankenstein.
"You couldn't make 'Blazing Saddles' today". An interesting essay on that... ruclips.net/video/62cPPSyoQkE/видео.html
tl;dw - 'Blazing Saddles' is a film by a Black person and a Jewish person. Who very carefully thought out what they would and would not include in the film.
You could absolutely make Blazing Saddles today because of who created it. Context matters.
I don't even care what she's reacting to, it's always so warm and wholesome to watch because of her personality and energy. Just seeing her smile and telling us to grab a snack, I just relax.
My favorite joke in all of Spaceballs is the slow reveal of the ship at the beginning of the film. The way the soundtrack goes from ominous to impatient to bored in its pacing, until it gives only a half-hearted effort at the end, is hilarious and subtle.
Another suggestion to watch one of the best of the "stupid humor" movies ever....Airplane. :)
Absolutely!!!!
Watch Airplane!
@@robertrobertJ but there's absolutely no way to play "Blazing Saddles" in this day and age. It's one of the funniest movies ever so she should def watch it, but man it's one risky movie. Nowadays so called "adults" would freak out about the racy humor. It was co-written by Richard Pryor but I don't think he got a writing credit. I don't know why.
My vote for Airplane! also.
And for Star Wars parody... well, at least a parody of the trailer: Hardware Wars (www.imdb.com/title/tt0077658/) ... equally ridiculous and nicely short.
Yes! Watch Airplane!
the Mega Maid transforming scene is a spoof of 1986's Transformers: The Movie, when Unicron transforms into his robot mode
And Mega Maid, the name, is just a riff off of Megatron, not Mega Man, who wasn't really popular yet in 86.
I adore both films, but I never got that reference. I just figured they couldn't do a death star spoof well or came at it with the vacuum-for-air in mind ...& maids use vacuums. :)
@Risen General you got that right!
"I don't give a damn who it is, im gonna marry SOMEBODY TODAY!! ALRIGHT!! The short, SHORT version! Do you? "yes" "Do you?" "Yes!" Good ur married, kiss'er!" the priest cracks me up every time. lol
"What if he's Dark Helmet's son."
You don't even know what you're in for.
"This is so ridiculous...."
First time watching a Mel Brooks film, eh?
She just saw Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, so it's not a stretch.
@@keithwoods1103 Not as much of a stretch as you trying to be edgy, lol.
History of the world part 1 - oh my!!!! Freaken awesome
You never seen SpaceBalls ?? haha. Great... What a film. I miss John Candy. :(
Fun fact: This is Elon Musk's inspiration movie
He implemented "ludicrous" in Tesla cars to define their speed and acceleration. "Plaid" is rumored to be next in the next years.
The flamethrower came from here as well.
Looks like he got plaid from wkrp cincinnati not spaceballs though...
Fun Fact for ya: The whole scene with Darth Helmet playing with his dolls, was improvised by Rick Moranis, and was not in the script. The director just told him to do...whatever.
If the “jam” makes you laugh, you are 100% cut out for more Mel Brooks. Do Men in Tights!
You gotta be a man to wear tights!
While Alien is a great haunted house movie set in space, Aliens is an amazing action thriller. It 's one of the best sequels ever made, and fully cemented James Cameron as a genius writer-director. Also, it must be said, Sigourney Weaver is AMAZING in the film!
I would use my bot to smash the like button a million times on this comment, but it's too busy trolling Brie Larson.
One of the best movies ever made imho. I highly suggest watching the eight hour making of documentary if you have the time....maybe not all in one sitting.
Aliens kind of ruined the franchise in a way though. Alien 3 was more like the original Alien and wasn't really that bad but everyone was expecting another "amazing action thriller" and that's not the kind of movie it was so it bombed.
@@nodak81 Alien 3 made the same mistake that the recent Terminator film did. It invalidated the characters' hard won victory from the previous film that the audience really cared about. Both films would have been much better received if they had simply found a way around that stumbling block. Like you said, Alien 3 wasn't that bad, but audiences simply couldn't forget the elephant in the room. Newt, Hicks, and John Connor deserved better.
She should just watch Aliens and not watch Alien again.
Aliens doesn't even need the first movie. It stands on its own pretty well.
It wasn't on your reaction video. But after the radar gets "jammed" the radarman, Michael Winslow is the one who does all the sound effects.
You should definitely see him in the Police Academy movies. His sound effects are out of this world and spectacular.
As well as Cheech and Chong's Next Movie (which may have been his first on screen appearance)
Saying "This is so dumb," yet still laughing, has been my reaction to pretty much every Mel Brooks movie ever. 🙈
The guy who had the alien pop out of his chest was actually in the first Alien movie, thus the "Not again."
The actor who appears in the "Chest Burster" scene in alien, John Hurt is the same actor who appears in the same scene in spaceballs.
My favorite part: "We ain't found sh*t!" Also the way the second parking guard that says "yeah!" has stuck with me for years.
The actor in the diner with the alien bursting from his chest is John Hurt. (R.I.P.). Who also played the original victim in Alien. Which is why he's like: "Not again."
Mel Brooks greatest movie is Blazing Saddles, but people think it's racist.. Showing racism isn't racist. It's being honest and anyone upset by it is probably being dishonest.
It's absolutely NOT racist, it's satirical and making fun of racists.
So happy you finally watched Spaceballs, i've been waiting for this! One of my all time favorite comedies.
One of my absolute favorite comedies. You simply have to do Blazing Saddles as well. Uninterrupted laughter from start to finish!!
Blazing Saddles? Natalie would turn it off in the first five minutes.
This is more star Wars than Ep7-9.
@@bigaugust3828 Why you think that?
@@QuayNemSorr There's a certain word (and other closely related words ) that is/are used allll throughout Blazing Saddles, and the movie lets you know this right up front.
@@Melancthon7332 But that's pretty much the point of the movie: making fun of racists. Will youtube ban such footage?!
"Young Frankenstein" IMO is a funnier Mel Brooks movie that you should watch. (also "Airplane" as others have mentioned)
RIP John Hurt and Joan Rivers. 🎥 💓 🍿
You apparently never watch Blazing Saddles
Just to clarify, "Airplane!" is NOT by Mel Brooks, it was just mentioned in the same breath because it's another classic of this sort of uber-dumb parody style. Has some classic lines too ("Surely you can't be serious?!" "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley!").
And seconded "Blazing Saddles" as another of Mel Brook's greatest, perhaps his best. "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" is another really funny one.
I agree, "Young Frankenstein" is really funny. Gene Wilder and Marty Feldman are amazing on that movie.
And RIP John Candy and Dick Van Patten...
"It's a parody, and it's by Mel Brooks" is there anything else you need to know? Spaceballs and History of the World part 1 are still some of my favourite comedies of all time.
Natalie's judgemental expression at the Druish Princess joke. (*Chef's kiss*)
Fun fact: The scene at 8:52 where Dark Helmet plays with the dolls (and doesn't get seen!) was entirely improvised. Rick Moranis was handed the dolls just before they started filming, and was told to do something funny.
"His helmet is so big!"
-That's what she said....
Sorry...
We thought it, you said it. :P
That's what the Princess Vespa doll said...
12:21 "Is he your daddy?"
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
... Sorry...
"I've lost the beeps, the sweeps, and the creeps!" "The what, the what, and the what?!"
But if you like stupid movies that are so dumb and stupid it's great(!), I recommend the following:
ANY Monty Python Movie
- Monty Python The Meaning of Life
- Monty Python The Life of Brian
- Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Tucker and Dale vs Evil
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
Airplane
National Lampoons Loaded Weapon
They're all funny, but Holy Grail is on another level. The first time I watched it I basically almost did not get to breathe if not between one laugh and another, it's literally so packed with great jokes there's not a single dull moment.
"Good thing he's not Prince Viagra."
Gotta admit it: I LOLed.
i would think the princesses would like that. I mean when he said he be up all night he mean he up all night
When you can... watch Robin Hood: Men in Tights
I almost feel like she should watch Prince of Thieves first, to catch more of the references/similarities that Men in Tights lampoons, lol.
@@vodengc520 That's a lot of vegetables to have to slog through before the dessert
@@IrishCarney oh come on! Prince of thieves wasn't that bad! I liked it!
"Arsenic and Old lace" next (if you want to get the Teddy Roosevelt reference with his safari helmet)
Now that IS a good suggestion.
Classic Movie... I still think this movie is funny. Charrrrge
BULLY!
A man of culture i see
Wholesome fact about the actor who plays Dark Helmet - Rick Moranis. He was one of the highest paying actors at the time but after his wife died of cancer he stopped acting to be a full time dad and take care of his children. Its not just an alien reference its the same actor as in the alien movie thats why he say "not again"
watching this again after Galaxy Quest! love your channel, you've come so far.
"His helmet's so big!"
My drink came.out my nose. Thanks lol
"Now you see that evil will always triumph...because good is dumb."
You could tell Mel Brooks was a fan, to do a parody that was tasteful and silly. It was great how he hit so many other film references that weren't Star Wars as well.
"How big is this ship?!" The ship size thing was a reference to the opening scene in Star Wars (Ep4). The star destroyer seemed to just keep coming and coming. It had people in awe of the size and scale on the movie screen.
Really have enjoyed your reactions. Even the ones when you don't quite get something or you finally get a reveal to something you had been questioning that had been set-up earlier.
May the Schwartz be with you
I laughed so hard when this movie came out. Yes, I'm old. Have you seen Blazing Saddles? They could not make that movie now.
Was my first thought when I saw the name of this video. Not only could Blazing Saddles not be made today, she'd lose her channel if she tried to watch it with us.
Hold on while I whip this out.
@@jwoellhof Others have reacted to it with no repercussions. She'd be fine.
Anybody who says it couldn't be made today doesn't understand what actually makes it work. "Oh it's just so offensive." Not really. Bigotry is portrayed as stupid 100% of the time in the movie. Movies that push those same boundaries DO get made today. The only joke that would always be cut for TV was the fart scene at the campfire. The rest would be dubbed for language, but still get broadcast.
She would have to edit heavily for RUclips's sake, but that's it.
@@voxorox thank you! i'm always saying this. it's actually aged quite well
3:52 I dunno, I think Vespa would probably be much happier with Prince Viagra.
Also, the robot is 'Dot Matrix,' which is a play on the old dot matrix printing style.
If you're interested, someone made "Spaceballs the facemask" so you can go outside during the pandemic
While you'r detouring through Mel Books Street, watch his 90's masterpiece, Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993). The burn joke there is they parody and make fun of how Kevin Costner did a big budget Robin Hood flick (back in 1991) with no accent.
Needs to see Prince of Thieves before Men in Tights. 🏹🏹🏹
Natalie you are so much fun! These are all movies I have seen but I love watching your discoveries. And even time you laugh I laugh. You’re so much fun.
"WATER *MAH ASS!* BRING THIS GUY SOME PEPTO BISMOL!" Has never failed to make me laugh like a maniac and fall out of my chair for as long as I can remember.
Mel Brooks was known for including lots of Jewish jokes in his movies. Like The Schwartz.
Watching this reaction and it just dawned on me that the chestburster sceen in Spaceballs is also John Hurt, same guy who played Kane in Alien. Awesome of him to do the parody film and parody himself.
"It's great to be King!" One of Mel Brooks' greatest lines. (Different movie)
It's good to be da king. (History of the World and then again in Robin Hood)
Natalie, If you could only see one more movie: "John Carpenter's THE THING" (1982)
"if only you could see what I've seen with your eyes"
Yeeeessss!!!!!
Love that movie. My second favorite movie
Glad she covered that one. It's my favorite horror movie of all time, especially as someone who doesn't generally like horror movies much.
What, no reaction to the "Jews in Space" trailer at the end of the movie? (never mind; that was in History of the World Part 1)
Brooks nailed it with the "merchandising" line. In fact when he requested permission from Lucas to do the spoof, Lucas specified that no merchandising was allowed.
Fun fact: Lone Starr's call sign was "Eagle 5." In Independence Day Pullman was Eagle 1.
Most people don't understand the humor of "Jews in space." It's because the Jews pictured are orthodox Jews, and they believe "space" is God's country (heaven), and mankind is not supposed to go, incarnate into heaven.
Fun fact, part of the joke behind Dark Helmet is that he sounds like the original voice actor to play Darth Vader. Seriously, listen to the original recordings, they are hilarious.
It's fitting that there is only one hero character. In the initial script( a direct rip-off of the hidden fortress by Akira Kurosawa), there is one hero that was divided into Obi-Wan and Han Solo. Luke's character was initially the princess, leading to the creation of Luke AND Leia.
I've seen this movie a hundred times, and I still think it's pretty funny, but today I was laughing at your reaction laughs, great stuff thanks Natalie!
Fun fact: Predator was in theaters at the same time Spaceballs was.
Did he sit at the front?
Making a lot of weird noises?
voodoochile333 I know funny, and that’s funny.
You hit 50K today!!! Congrats, friend!
I'd love to see you react to Tremors. Also The Princess Bride if you haven't already seen it.
I haven't seen Tremors for years! Thanks for reminding me about it 👍🏼
You need to watch the movie Airplane! from 1980. Now that is a classical comedy - and still funny.
Shirley you can’t be serious?
@@g8kpr3000 Don't call me Shirley.
Just don't park in the red zone.
In one of her videos, she had a drinking problem.
Robin Hood: Men in Tights is my favorite of these movies
I truly still find it hilarious when people call something stupid and laugh at it because dumb humor always hits
"I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate."
Hilariously, depending on the number of cousins Lone Starr has, he and Dark Helmet may well *have* been former roommates.
But since you didn't watch Alien first you won't get the joke! "Not again!" ;)
And the comedy is not exactly high brow. But still funny. :D
EDIT! Oh you did get the Alien reference, it was also the actor from Alien reprising his role as a hatchery for an alien, hence "Not again!"
Oh yeah! Spoilers!
She says in the video she has seen Alien once so she got the reference.
She says later in the video that she did watch it once so she knows that bit was from Alien
@@charlesedwards2856 yeah just caught that
That was my first thought. Why would anyone knowingly recommend Spaceballs before Alien, if just for that joke alone?
I did not see this coming but this makes me happy! Haha!
Another recommendation: Willow.
If you're up for another silly comedy: The Three Amigos
Out of a plethora of recommendations, those are two good ones.
Since she LOVED LoTR, Im SURE she'd love Willow!
Nice! I seriously can't watch that "Pizza the Hutt" scene without laughing. :)
Just the ridiculously long shot of the ship at the beginning, that just keeps going and GOING, has me cracking up every time, then it just never lets up. So much fun.
When you get around to Star Trek movies, the best place to start is Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan, then 3 + 4. Those films act as the unofficial trilogy. A really good parody of classic Star Trek is 1999's "Galaxy Quest". Definitely looking forward to your reaction of Alien, Aliens and Alien 3. Just watched your Lord Of The Rings reactions and had forgotten how good those films were! They had huge success at Oscar time in 2004 - their adaptation of the novels was incredible.
Wouldn't hurt to watch the episode "Space Seed" of the original Star Trek series before diving into Star Trek 2. It will make the movie make much more sense.
@@nodak81 I agree! It really is a must.
With the exception of The Two Towers. They badly mangled the book in that movie. It also set into motion some of the more frustrating and inexplicable changes made in RotK.
“I had to run! If I walked the movie would be over!”
there was no sequel but Spaceballs was developed into an animated television show which debuted in September 2008 as Spaceballs: The Animated Series on G4 (US) and Super Channel (Canada).
'It's my virgin alarm. It's programmed to go off before you do.'
That line has stuck with me for the past 34 years!
Natalie....watch Firefly....I promise you will love it!
YES! FIREFLY!
Fully agree!!!
When will Then be Now?
Soon!
How soon?
The Alien Reference: They also got the same actor who played Kane in Alien too! So it's an awesome reference and John Hurt was such a sport for doing the cameo.
The bit where Dark Helmet is playing with dolls was improved. They just gave Rick Moranis the figures and told him to mess around with them.
If you haven't already checked it out, I will recommend Blazing Saddles. It's another Mel Brooks comedy and one of my favourite movies.
