What's your favorite line or moment from this movie?
Each and every line uttered by Alan Rickman is my favorite line. 😁
@@Stogie2112 that’s valid 😁
@@bunnytailsREACTS ... His greatest performance, in my opinion, was playing the Sheriff of Nottingham in "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" (1991). 👍👍
Tony Shalhoub's reaction when he is beamed up. "Huh. That was a hell of a thing. What's wrong with them?"
The bathroom conversation was a real thing overheard at a convention bathroom about Shatner.
By Grabthar's hammer, what a reaction.
😁
Quite agree, by the Suns of Warvan ... what a savings
You got there before I did. :P
"and it exploded" might be my favorite line delivery
My friends and I have quoted that line for 20 years or so
Yes the dramatic pause was great.
_"he was worried about dying and now he's looking at boobs?"_
Is there ever a bad time to look at boobs? 😆
When you stop looking, you stop living. Church!
I hope that's what I'm doing when my time comes!
I mean, really. It might be his last chance.
Uh...no.
The only time would be if your significant other catches you looking at someone else's boobs
I love how Galaxy Quest is basically acknowledged by fans as an unofficial Star Trek movie. Also, Patrick Stewart initially refused to see it until Jonathan Frakes told him to give it a try. He loved it. "Nobody laughed louder or longer in the cinema than I did."
Wonderful 😁
Stewart had the same reaction to Red Dwarf.
My GF at the time convinced me to watch this, now I see it as more Orville than Star Trek but fun as it's own thing.
No, it's a parody of Star Trek, not an "unofficial Star Trek movie." Definitely better than Orville, though.
It is, basically, an unofficial Star Trek movie. At the same time, it's not a movie that you need to have watched Star Trek to appreciate.
Galaxy Quest shows how to honor a franchise the right way.
"Surely you don't think that Gilligan's Island is a......?"
"Those poor people 😔"
I love how Fred is so chill all the time. Because he is high af. That is why he carries the paper bag all around, it has his gear in it.
Fred is baked.
And his munchies!
The man had the ultimate hot box experience during his transportation.
Adrian Monk: The Chill Years.
Mr Monk and the 'Trip to Space'.
It took me a few viewings to realize how perfect having Guy play the security chief was. He was always so hyper-vigilant about any possible threats.
🤔 Good point!
Also, his job on the barrilium sphere planet was to "set up a peremeter". Jason even called him Fleegman.
Hyper paranoid, maybe.. which, as it happens, is a good trait in a Security Chief.
Also - who was the only member of the original Next Gen bridge crew to die during the TV series' run?
The sweetest love-letter to Start Trek ever made
One fun little easter egg in the movie is the number on the side of the spaceship, the "Protector" is "NTE-3120" NTE stands for "Not The Enterprise" 😅
😱🤯
It always cracks me up, when Sarris starts shooting up the bridge. Guy is the only person who doesn't get hit.. In spite of all of his fears he's actually an anti-red shirt!
Nice observation
Or he is seen by the shooter as the least capable threat present. And given that Saris is shooting at Thermians, it says a lot about his eventual promotion!
It took me several watchings to catch that!
32:17 What Alexander means by 'not fair' is that he didn't get any credit for saving the crew there.. they just kept cheering for the commander instead.. just like in the show I'm assuming!
When Mathezar was being broken by learning that the show wasn't real, his actor did such a good job of conveying his despair that Tim Allen had to leave the room for a while.
To which Alan Rickman said "Oh my God, I think he just experienced acting!"
Rickman wasn't a fan of Tim.
That was the moment that did it? I knew it happened, but not what scene. Thank you
The scene really affected Tim because his show, Home Improvement, was wrapping up. He'd been Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor so long, he was having to get used to just being Tim Allen again.
There is a famous Leonard Nimoy story about him being in a restaurant and the waitress asked him. "Is it true you're the guy who wrote the book?" and since he had written a couple of books by then he responded "yes." The waitress replied by saying she'd raised her kids by it. (Dr. Spock was a famous author about raising children.)
Hilarious, especially considering his first book was titled "I Am Not Spock".
Guy screaming might be my favorite part. but also him yelling "is there air? you don't know!"
That line was added at the request of Tim Allen- _he_ was the one who asked that question off-camera, and they gave it to Guy to say!
He ad-libbed the scream and sigourney jumped to it naturally
Alan Rickman owned everything he was ever in. How does one man just start talking and he's suddenly epic lol.
So true!
He's British!
Every time I hear Alan Rickman say the line and MEAN it! “ by Grabthar’s Hammer, by the Sons of Warvan. You shall be avenged.” I just tear up. Bunnytails, your time with Star Trek has made you a great commander.
today , is a good day to DIE.
Glad I'm not the only one!
A surprisingly somber moment in an otherwise largely non-serious film. Well executed!
@@bunnytailsREACTS That's quite interesting. The concept of "comic relief" in a tragedy is well known, but there seems to be no term for the opposite effect: that is, I have been unable to find a phrase referring to a tragic moment in a work of comedy. It's less common, of course, but it does sometimes happen (as in Galaxy Quest), but several sources state that there is no antonym for "comic relief" and no phrase even discussing the idea of a tragic moment in a comedy.
@@MarkRyan-u3u I think there's a theory of comedy, that it has to be rooted in deep pathos for the characters and high-stakes in their world. Like, think of the premise of Mrs. Doubtfire -- there's nothing inherently comedic in the idea of a man potentially losing his whole family. Galaxy Quest is a story about bitter, disillusioned actors feeling used and discarded in their industry and an alien civilization facing extermination. Both of these premises need to be played with absolute sincerity to work comedically. So that may be why. But I do agree that we should have a word for it!
10:20 Sigourney Weaver didn’t know “Guy” was going to scream, so that was a genuine look of shock.
Haha! It’s even more entertaining knowing that
Always nice when a genuine Trekkie watches this movie.
trekker
Your spot on impression of a Thermian made me laugh my ass off. Thanks, Bunnytails 😂
My pleasure 😊
31:03 When Gwen (Sigourney) says "Well, screw that!" watch her mouth, it was added in post production. She doesn't say "screw" lol
Yeah, they made quite a few edits along with the dropped F bombs when they decided they wanted the movie to come in with a PG rating instead of an R rating. Like all the drug references. That’s why Tony Shalhoub’s character is so laid back. He’s supposed to be stoned the whole time. They thought it’d be hilarious if they’re “Scotty” instead of reacting with the typical (add in the Scottish accent.) “I CAN’T GIVE ER ANYMORE CAPTAIN!! IF I PUSH ER ANYMORE SHE’LL TEAR THE SHIP APART!!”, they’d get the stoner’s “Hey guys. They’re…telling me…the ship can’t take it…ship’s breaking apart…just FYI, ya know”. 😂🥹
@@coffeeveins and then Legends of Tomorrow hilariously combined the two with a high as a kite Nate (Nick Zano) quoting some of Scotty’s lines in a bad imitation accent. ruclips.net/video/cfUep23V_Jw/видео.htmlsi=jz36Uj-RZLdNOFAe
Ohh! Good catch Chris!
Yeah that re-writing of the movie always ticks me off a little bit. Modern audiences are more afraid of the word "fuck" than people in the 90s? Come on.
@@SlamminGraham The changes were made before the initial release.
"Give him a hand, he's British!"
The impromptu announcer for the crew's return is Kevin McDonald, member of Canadian comedy troupe Kids In The Hall
I've never met a Trek fan that didn't love Galaxy Quest.
There are a few in my comments, but not many!
I love the fact that the new security chief is named Roc (Rock! Rock! Rock!) Ingersoll. Ingersoll Machine Tools makes various milling machines, including (ahem) lathes.
Like many DVDs, the Galaxy Quest DVD had multiple language audio tracks. English, French, Spanish. Unlike most DVDs, Galaxy Quest included Thermian. So yes, you could listen to the whole movie in Thermian.
What!???? I need to see this
I love the scene where the ship starts to depart from space dock, and it starts to slide to the left toward the space dock walls, and everyone on the bridge starts leaning to the right. I don't know why, but that kills me every time!!!
Though, if I'm being honest, every scene with Sigourney Weaver and every scene with Missi Pyle (Laliari) is infinitely re-watchable. ❤
I loved the little touch of having the fans at the convention shooting Sarris with their Nerf guns.
Yes Bunny, all the costumes of the antagonists in this film are practical. The effects on this film are top notch.
Top notch is right!
“That’s no Corbomite” was the moment I realized I married the wrong woman. 😂
🤣
loved the dedication, clapping and walking like "termite or dalmatian". 👏
In addition to the major names you mentioned, superfan Brandon was played by a very young Justin Long; Fred was played by Tony Shalhoub (Monk); and one of the Thermians was played by Rainn Wilson (Dwight from the Office).
Special shout out to the great Enrico Colantoni who, in addition to portraying Mathesar with such a delicate blend of comedy & pathos, created much of the "business" of how Thermians act and sound.
The reason Tech Sgt. Chen looks so chill and relaxed is because he's always high, Guy even remarks about it in one scene; "Are you stoned?" And he always has snacks with him.
There is a deleted scene where Gwen unzips her uniform to distract one of the aliens right before they get to the room with the button, that's why her top is open.
I have to amend my favorite scene. It is when Bunny imitated the alien walk and salute! Priceless!
😁
In City of Heroes when they added Titan Weapons as a power set, I made a character called "Grabthar the Just" who wields a giant hammer. :D
This movie is such a tasteful "love-letter" to the Star Trek / Sci-Fi fandom. If you've never seen The Orville television series, that is another great homage to Star Trek. The Orville is both good comedy and good sci-fi with great effects, costumes, aliens, etc.
💯
There’s a good meta understanding of Star Trek in this. William Shatner had been accused of hogging lines. The actors were venturing on to other pursuits, but conventions had kept them going.
The actor that played Mathizar came up with the Thermian way of speaking based on a vocal warm-up exercise he used to do as a young actor and did it as a joke. The director loved it so it stayed.
Amazing!
As I recall, the entire set of Thermian mannerisms, their speech patterns as you say, but also their laugh, their clapping and the way they walk was based off of Enrico Colantoni's audition for the role of Mathesar, and he was tasked with teaching it to the other actors playing Thermians.
I think it was Wil Wheaton who said, "We should have done this." after he saw GQ.
Galaxy Quest was a thing that made The Orville possible; a Trek spoof film that enabled a TNG-style continuation series.
Orville was a loving comedic homage to ST but ended up a really good show in it's own right
@@DaleKingProfile it sure has. One that no-one reacts to **COUGH**
@@TroyConvers5000 I think the problem is that the early episode feel like Family Guy in space. My guess is that Seth sold the show as a parody and slowly dialed down on the dumb jokes to turn it into a more or less serious show with an occasional joke
If you enjoyed this, you might really like "Never Surrender - A Galaxy Quest Documentary".
@JoePlett I would add that it is written as an actual documentary for the "real" Galaxy Quest TV series, much like an ST retrospective would be. Very entertaining. Good suggestion.
Edit: I got this wrong, I was thinking of "Galaxy Quest 20th Anniversary: The Journey Continues." Both are great.
@@ilionreactor1079 You're thinking of a different one. "Never Surrender" is not a mockumentary.
@@Wishbone1977 You're correct. I was thinking of "Galaxy Quest 20th Anniversary: The Journey Continues"
The last act of the movie is a tribute to Star Trek Fans. I think it's the reason this movie was so popular with ST fans. It paid some love to the fandom.
When I was a teen in the 1980s, I had the printed blueprints of the USS Enterprise, watched all the episodes over and over, read the novelizations of the episodes, and hundreds of Star Trek novels. Right now, on my bookshelf behind me, I have the "Star Trek Technical Manual", "20th Century Computers and How They Worked by Lieutenant Commander Data", "making of..." books about some of the movies...just all sorts of fun stuff like that. Oh, and I also have four Tribbles scattered around the house.
And the T in my name stands for Tiberius. My dad was also a Star Trek fan.
Such a good movie. An affectionate parody of TOS and its behind the scenes shenanigans plus the resulting Trek fandom. And also a darn good scifi adventure in its own right. Love it.
There are four great Star Trek movies: The Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, The Undiscovered Country, and Galaxy Quest.
The best part of this reaction is at 40:55.
Eh, I think First Contact is also a great movie.
There are four great Star Trek movies: The Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, First Contact, and Galaxy Quest.
I keep trying to unsee "The Undiscovered Country", but I can't :(
Search for Spock never gets any love, but it's a perfectly good film. It just suffers from being sandwiched between two great films.
'Klingon adjacent.' What a concept! 😄
The Termites or Dalmatians, their walk reminds me so much of how characters in Everquest Online Adventures would run when they were farther away in the distance and a lesser model was being used. The legs especially!
EQ. God I still miss that game. One of the best mmos ever made and I still love the shadow knight class
One of my favorite movies. I believe Jonathan Frakes once said in an interview that this movie was his favorite episode of Star Trek.
"That's no corbomite, that's the real deal." Spoken like a true Trekkie!
28:08 I’ve always felt that silent turn when Jason wordlessly says, “it’s time to stop fucking around here,” and everyone slips into their roles unquestioningly was one of Tim’s finest acting moments. So much said with just one look.
Back in the 70s, there was a Trek anthology novel that had a story called Visit to a Weird Planet, Revisited. Shatner, Nimoy, and Kelley were filming an episode on set and like Mirror Mirror, switched places with their Starfleet counterparts and ended up in the 'real' Trek universe. Was hilarious, just like GQ.
Oh, I remember reading those Star Trek: The New Voyages books. There was a short story written before that one called Visit to a Weird Planet where it was done the other way around. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beamed onto the Star Trek set. I fibnally came across it a few years ago.
It was in one of the James Blish anthologies. He wrote the short story novelizations of the TOS episodes. He added a few original stories to the collection and this was one of them.
@@amlor Not to start an argument, but Blish didn't write it. The only original Star Trek story he wrote was the first Star Trek novel, "Spock Must Die".
"Visit to a Weird Planet" was written by Jean Lorrah and Willard F. Hunt and was published in the fanzine, Spocknalia. The sequel was written by Ruth Berman (no erelation to RIck) and was also first published in Spocknalia, but was included in the first anthology of (mostly) fan-written stories, "Star Trek: The New Voyages". There was a "Star Trek: The New Voyages 2" but I never saw another one after that.
There were some good stories in that first one, and one truly great one called, "Mind Sifter" by Shirley S. Maiewski.
Towards the end, when Sarris kills the bridge crew right before the Omega 13 activation, the only person to not get shot is Guy.
Oh! I didn’t even realize, haha
"Somebody's merchandise just got obliterated" By the crew, arriving in an actual spaceship. If I were at a Trek con and a Runabout crashed and destroyed my stall, and out stepped Captain Sisko, my merch is the LAST thing on my mind
Good point 😁
To me, Galaxy Quest is the best of the Star Trek movies the way Space Balls is the best of Star Wars. They both captured, humorously, the fandoms love of the franchises.
Ah Galaxy Quest. A tribute in it's own right to Star Trek fandom!
That's it exactly! That salute to the fans at the end was basically the whole point of the movie.
Wonderful to see A Piece Of The Action, The Corbomite Manoeuvre and Arena amongst other episodes (not to mention the somewhat fractious off-screen dramas) be the inspiration for this movie. Yet it’s clearly affectionate whilst a spoofing/satirising Star Trek 😂❤
I think that was the coolest part about this movie is that the official Star Trek fandom / people who make Star Trek have claimed this movie as a Star Trek movie
It's great how you almost instantly expressed the theme of this one; yes, these shows have a bit of corn to them, but there is absolutely a significance and depth to them. They are inspiring, enlightening and even life changing. So wonderful to see the crew finally understand their show was more than just geek references and laser guns and cool outfits. It was about what it is to be human, about conveying that human experience and understanding it. The film has a perfect mix of humor and drama that is very, very rare. It's poking fun at the genre but also doing it with obvious GREAT love. One of the very few "modern classics" IMO.
Now, you gotta work on a famous one-liner...!
31:04 Note how she's not actually saying, "Well, screw that!"
The unfortunate curse of the film having to appeal to wider audiences...
Bunny, I think you have the _ideal_ outfit for your first viewing of this movie. The best kind of satire is one that fans of the _franchise_ will appreciate.
1:23 Just to illustrate my point, somewhere along the line, _Star Trek_ began to prefer for its Klingons actors from the _Shakespearean_ fold. I think this guy is here to acknowledge that fact.
I was waiting for you to watch this, as I guessed you'd love it! It's a really well written film - the comedy, the sci-fi drama and the development of the individual characters is all brilliantly interwoven, and it's simultaneously an affectionate parody and a tribute to the genre.
The pratical effect extended to the Command Deck. That part of the set was designed to move so the crew's movements would be synchronized during battle scenes.
This movie is so well done, and so sweet for the fans. It's amazing how well it came together.
As a Star Trek fan, I just loved this movie. My favorite scene was the one on one with the rock monster. Totally a Gorn moment.
Enrico Colantoni is such a G in this. As has been said the way the Thermians speak and move was pretty much all workshopped by himself and his audition. Aside from this I know him best as Veronica Mars' dad, but he also had a great part on the show Person of Interest.
This is my second favorite Star Trek movie that isn't a Star Trek movie. The first is Forbidden Planet, which Roddenberry did state was a major source of inspiration. The third is Master And Commander: At World's End.
I think yours was the best reaction to Galaxy Quest I've seen yet..you caught all the Trek references.
Since the invention of movies, there have been only five perfect comedies. One of them is "The Princess Bride." This is another one.
Hi Bunny,
this is such a fun cool movie! and def an homage to Star Trek, their actors and their fans. It was just a really great time, getting to watch it with you. Also your Thermian impression made me chuckle, you are fun! Thanks for all the great times! Take care cute space bunny, and thanks for the fun times!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Aliens basing their world on records of our culture is of course done in Star Trek with “A Piece of the Action” and even “Patterns of Force”.
A great homage to our beloved series. Lenard Nemoy often wore the Spock ears around his home to find the character. Which he eventually nailed.
Sigourney Weaver's line about there always being ducts is a reference to the Alien franchise.
The we work together or not at all is a reference to the animated series. When the racist studio didn't want Nichelle Nichols or the other none white actors to voice their characters. Their friends and costars told the studio if they aren't welcomed then no one will do the show.
Sam Rockwell is fantastic as the "Red Shirt" representative.
Life-long, second-generation Trekkie here.
I don't know much about _TAS,_ but I had no idea _that_ happened! :O
Really, and Nichelle Nichols of all people. The one person inarguably responsible for making the real space program as diverse as Star Trek. Got much better performing personnel too.
The whole, "I'm not going to say that stupid line." actually has some basis in reality. After Star Trek ended, Leonard Nimoy felt that being in Star Trek hurt his acting career and said he was never going to say, "Live long and prosper." ever again. A few years went by and one of the first Star Trek conventions happened. Leonard did not go but a couple Star Trek alumni did. After the convention they contacted him and told him he really needed to attend one. He reluctantly agreed and went to the next one he could attend. While there he met fan after fan telling him how much his character Mr. Spock meant to them and one fan even said they were thinking of unaliveing themselves but hearing Spock say, "Live long and Prosper." caused them to stop. Also, many fans over the years told him that they decided to go into science because of Mr. Spock. Needless to say, Leonard did not have any problems saying, "That stupid line." after that.
James Doohan got a letter like that once. There is an interview with him talking about it.
Lovely story, thank you!
@@GrantWaller.-hf6jn I think all of them have gotten letters like that. But I do remember seeing that interview with James.
@@bunnytailsREACTS during the time he was exhausted by it he wrote a book called "I am not Spock" years later he wrote "I am Spock"
LOL, what a great movie to get dressed up for.
I do what I can 😁
Well done, bunny! This might be the best Galaxy Quest reaction I've seen. Not only did you get the Star Trek references, you actually referred to them. Brilliant!
"This isn’t corbomite, this is real." Loved it.
That’s very kind of you!
More Star Trek than Star Trek, is what tv show The Orville was called when it started around 2018. Many trekkies had problems with Star Trek Discovery and so The Orville was much liked. Seth McFarlane made the show with this intent. Its not a spoof, by the way.
The Orville was great and I do feel like it captured the essence of classic Star Trek in a way that some of the more modern Treks have not.
7:45 fun fact: at this point, during the theater presentation, as the bay doors were opening to space, the aspect ratio changed from a smaller TV ratio to one that filled the entire theater screen.
It changes twice, actually. It starts in 1.33:1 (4:3) with the old TV show, then it widens to 1.85:1 (16:9) at the convention and finally widens again to 2.35:1 (21:9) as the bay doors open and stays that way for the rest of the movie.
If you enjoy behind the scenes discussions, I can't recommend highly enough the 2019 documentary Never Surrender on Prime. Made for the 20th anniversary of Galaxy Quest, it talks with cast, crew, and executives about how the film was made (including how the Thermians became how they were). It also talks with fans, critics and some Star Trek alumni about how the film was received and the lasting legacy it has had. I have watched it many times and it is a great compliment to watching the film.
Your TOS references are getting spooky good. Welcome to the club :)
This is how Star Trek went from being a tv show to something more because fans began asking questions about stuff that the writers only intended for the episode that it appeared in, fans made it the Star Trek Universe. Sadly this is also reflective of the real disconnect between actors of Star Trek how actors would before filming scenes would edit scripts taking lines intended for other actors, William Shatner did this a lot so much that when he was given the director's chair for Star Trek V actor Geoge Takei was reluctant to apprise his role as Sulu. This "hammer" parallels not just Leonard Nimoy who was only known as Spock despite playing other characters in other shows but reflects actors being type cast by studios themselves.
This film is a work of art. A true cinematic spectacle. It is close to perfect. Beautifuly shot, with an engaging story that keeps you gripped from start to end.
Its 50 years old and has withstood the test of time. Will always be my favourite ever film.
Note that as Security Chief "Roc" Ingersol, Guy gets to send other redshirts to their deaths, but as a member of the cast, his character is a guaranteed survivor.
The only thing that would've made the ending cooler is if the kids who helped save them were shown as being trainees on the bridge crew.
Umm, not every security chief in Trek survives. Not going to mention any names since she hasn’t seen TNG yet, but you know…
The kids are on the lower decks.
I'd've rather they been included as "technical advisors" in the credits, but yeah, trainees on the Protector would have also been pretty epic.
32:15: Aliens: Commander Taggert has saved us.
Alexander Dane aka "Dr. Lazarus": It's not fair.
You: What's not fair?
Me: That Taggert / Jason Nesmith/ Tim Allen got (as usual) all the credit for saving the aliens instead of Dr. Lazarus / Alexander Dane / Alan Rickman, who did all of the actual work. Part of his motivation is constant jealousy that the commander gets all of the credit for himself; every time.
" miners not minors..." man, gets me every time...that and everything Guy says...superb!
🤣
Love this film! Hey Bunny, the Thermian walk - when we walk, leg forward/opposite arm back, leg back, opposite arm forward.
When they walk, it's leg forward/same side arm forward, leg back/same side arm back- it's counter intuitive. Basically, your arm on each side follows each leg on the same side (or leg follows arm on same side - same thing).
Walking that way is tough enough, but running like that like they were in some scenes, well, that's why it's so funny, because it looks very odd and hard to do without screwing up even falling over!
They actually had "Thermian School" where the actors playing them were taught how to walk and talk and otherwise be a Thermian, by actor Enrico Colantoni (Mathezar), who invented it all on his own.
It may not be a Star Trek movie but it is a great Star Trek movie! Great reaction Bunny!
A bit of information for you.
The actor who played Billy the Kid in The Green Mile was Sam Rockwell.
During the scene where Sarris shoots everyone, Guy is the only one NOT shot.
"Bunny you're overthinking it" 😄
😭😭😭
I think the thing that I enjoyed the most about this reaction was watching you get more and more into the movie as it kept going. 😎👍🏽
Enrico Colantoni(Mathezar) was a regular on "Veronica Mars" as the title character's father, a former sheriff turned private detective. He had a very different role as a guest star on "Person of Interest." I hace learned that he is in "Just Shoot Me," which I haven't watched.
This is a really great movie! It has so much going for it. It is funny, heart warming, a loving tribute, there's character growth and redemption, and the good guys win!
However, thinking about actors having that one line, I think Bunny should have one. I even have one for her -- "I'm watching you". She could start every reaction with "I haven't seen it before, but today Galaxy Quest... I'm watching you!" Say the line, Bunny...
Amblin did the distribution of the movie and since Spielberg founded the company, he was curious to see what Galaxy Quest was all about, especialy since he wasn't too fond of Tim Allen (at that time, Tim Allen was mostly famous because of the series Home Improvement). As luck would have it, they were shooting the Malthazar torture scene, and Spielberg had to admit he was wrong about Tim Allen's acting abilities. On that note, right after they filmed that scene, Tim asked for some time alone in his trailer, to which Alan Rickman replied "he just experienced acting".
My favorite line comes from your reaction: "Don't listen to those RUclips comments!" at 4:15.
Good advice!
Tony Shalhoub's character was supposed to be stoned. But they didn't mention that because they wanted the PG-13 rating. Same with Sigourney Weaver being dubbed over when looking at the chompers.
It all makes sense now!
When Sarris appeared at the convention at the end, I did not think the people would be scared. I thought they would just be impressed by the alien makeup and acting.
Well, if a large spacecraft crashed into a sci-fi convention area, it would be a mixed reaction.
By Grabthor's hammer, what a savings.
If you were a fan of Dr Lazarus's arc in the film, you should read two books by Leonard Nimoy titled "I am not Spock" and "I am Spock". They deal with him being resentful of being typecast as Spock, and then him realizing what his character meant to the fans and coming around and embracing playing Spock. Both are good reads.
The bathroom scene is based on a real event that happened to William Shatner after the series ended.
I never realized that Guy Fleegman was the actor in the Green Mile!!! Also your Thurmian Walk or trot was AMAZING at the end!!! Thankyou bunnytails for helping with my Chronic Pain level!!! U truly Lowered it immensely!!! Love from Phnx AZ.
Haha thank you!!
I love when Sigourney says "Screw that" but that is NOT what her mouth said. XD
