  • Spaceballs (1987)
    Spaceballs is a 1987 American space opera parody film co-written, produced and directed by Mel Brooks. It is primarily a parody of the original Star Wars trilogy, but also parodies other sci-fi films and popular franchises including Star Trek, Alien, The Wizard of Oz, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Planet of the Apes, and Transformers. The film stars Bill Pullman, John Candy, and Rick Moranis, with the supporting cast including Daphne Zuniga, Dick Van Patten, George Wyner, Lorene Yarnell, and the voice of Joan Rivers. In addition to Brooks playing a dual role, the film also features Brooks regulars Dom DeLuise and Rudy De Luca in cameo appearances.

    Mel Brooks asked permission from George Lucas before filming. Lucas's only condition was 'no merchandizing' which in turn 'merchandizing' became a running joke throughout the movie.

      One of the other conditions was the main character couldn't look like Han Solo. Which is why they made him look like Indiana Jones instead....

    Coby, the voice for Pizza the Hutt was Dom DeLuise and yes, Dot's voice is Joan Rivers. The actor in the suit for Dot is the mime Lorene Yarnell from Shields and Yarnell. One of George Lucas' stipulations for permission to parody his franchise was that the Han Solo character couldn't be costumed like he is in Star Wars hence the idea to make him look instead like Indiana Jones. And if you didn't ever figure it out, Mel Brooks played 2 roles in this film...he is President Skroob and Yogurt. Also, Michael Winslow from Police Academy is the radar officer that got jammed doing all those crazy sound effects he is known for. Lucas loved the script so much that he offered the services of ILM to do the visual effects which is why they are top notch for 1987. Some of the escape pod footage is actually unused film from A New Hope. After our heroes get rescued by the "jawas' thru walking up to the scary stage of Yogurt is a veiled reference to the Wizard of Oz. I'm sure you can get which Spaceballs character translates to which character in Oz. One other thing: the doll playing scene was a last minute suggestion by Mel to Rick that he totally improvised on the spot.

    What I really love about this movie: it not only makes fun of the originals, but is also a loving homage to Star Wars.
    The incredible attention to detail in the film sets, costumes and equipment alone, as well as the many allusions to the content, requires that the audience knows the original very well in order for the gags to work. At the same time, the movie takes the nonsense to the absolute extreme.

    Great reaction Coby like always i love Mel brooks movies. A fun fact...when Rick Moranis says 'why don't we take a five minute break', it's exactly 5 minutes in the film before we see the spaceballs again.
    In case you didn't realize, or know, the late Sir John Hurt was the guy who had the alien come out of him. He was the original actor from Alien as well. Some great little bit's a pieces about this film which makes it funnier when you know. By the way, the guy making the sounds is the legendary Michael Winslow. You can see more of him in Police Academy.
    Mel Brooks had to get permission from George Lucas who only agreed on the grounds that they sold no merchandise and that Lone Starr couldn't dress as Han Solo. So brooks filled the movie with fake merch and dressed Lone Starr like Indiana Jones instead.

    There's polystyrene cups everywhere cause cast and crew kept leaving them all over the set, so Brooks just wrote them into the film. And one of my favorite joke of the movie is the stunt double one. There are a lot of 4th wall breaking jokes in the movie (the spaceball cassette, the cameraman getting slashed by Darth Helmet, Yoghurt doing merchandising stuff because "it's where real money from the movie is made" but the stunt double one really made me lose it completely as it was completely unexpected. It was so well done! Keep up the good work. I suggest reaction to more Mel Brooks movies all of the are hilarious.

    The cast in this movie is fantastic. Especially Rick Moranis as Dark Helmet. And of course, Mel Brooks as Yogurt & President Skroob. And this is easily my favorite "Star Wars" parody.
    I still very VERY highly recommend the Star Wars behind the scenes documentary "From Star Wars to Jedi: The Making of a Saga" narrated by Mark Hamill(Luke Skywalker). If you're still going in release order, just to let you know it came out in 1983. It's my favorite "Star Wars" behind the scenes documentary.
    Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊

    Now that you have seen one Mel Brooks film, you absolutely must check out the silliness of "History of the World, Part I". Of course, no Mel Brooks journey is complete until you have seen "Young Frankenstein" and "Blazing Saddles".

    Mel FINALLY received his 'Lifetime Achievement' Oscar this year in his 90's gods bless him! Watch EVERYTHING he ever did, the man is the GREATEST! 🥰 We're not worthy! 🤣 'Pizza' was Dom DeLuise, one of Mel's favorites. 'President Skroob' and 'Yogurt' were both Mel Brooks. Dark Helmet playing with his dolls was total improvisation by Rick Moranis, Brooks just turned him loose and decided to leave it in. 😛🤣

    Mel Brooks not only played President Skroob (Which is technically Brooks spelled backwards), he was also Yogurt, he was on his knees when he played that part. The part close to the end where the little alien sang Hello My Baby, it was a reference to a classic Bugs Bunny cartoon called One Froggy Evening. You should see it if you want to understand that joke. The coloring book that Yogurt showed was actually a Transformers coloring book.

    49:19 Ronny Graham had 11 movie roles, 6 of which were for Mel Brooks.
    As the minister, he didn't understand the character or how excited he should get, so he was directly mimicking Mel Brooks's reading of the script with building exasperation finishing with an approving smile.

  • @Harrison11106

    One of my favorite Mel Brooks films. Some years back he said he was ready to finally do Spaceballs 2: The Search for more Money. He was just waiting on Rick Moranis to come out of retirement. Brooks even had Dark Helmets helmet . Unfortunately too much time has passed. Two of the original stars are dead, & Rick Moranis has shown zero inkling of wanting to come back into the comedy/acting field.

  • @MacTechG4

It is one of those movies that there is no way it could be released today, which are some of the best to watch.

    Mel....what a national treasure! Going back to his earliest movies, all brilliant! It's hard to believe, he was a WW2 hero! All his movies are pure genius, the producers is a riot! He cowrote blazing saddles with Richard Pryor and how he got Gene Hackman to take a bit part in, Young Frankenstein, I'll never know! Mel is Yogurt, in this, he's usually in all his movies somewhere! This movie has so many movies in it, even a bit of Dune! He was also hillarious in he had a reoccurring bit part as a guy I think named, Methuselah, in the TV show, Mad About You!

    13:55 John Candy’s character Barf was a Mawg (half man/half dog) because Chewie from Star Wars was named after George Lucas’ dog.
    Also…
    Though Dom Deluise was the voice of Pizza the Hut, there was an actual actor in the suit. Unfortunately, that had to be a one shot stunt. The suit was covered in real pizza toppings. It wasn’t fake cheese, sauce and pepperoni, it was real melted cheese, tomato sauce and cooked pepperoni. So it was the same temperature as a real pizza served at a restaurant. The inside of the suit was a literal oven. The actor suffered heat exhaustion to the point of almost actual heat stroke. After one shot of the scene, he had to be pulled out of the suit. After the first shot, he refused, on medical advice, not to go back in the suit. Other actors and stuntmen also refused as well. So they had to use what footage they had managed to record.

You are very knowledgeable about celebrities! Dom DeLuise is the voice of "Pizza the Hut". He is probably best known from the "Cannonball Run" films with Burt Reynolds. Tim Russ (Tuvok - Star Trek: Voyager) is the Trooper with the giant hair pick. TRIVIA - People ask him more questions about this film than Star Trek!🤯 Stephen Tobolowsky is the Captain of the Guard. Brenda Strong (Desperate Housewives) is the nurse. Tony Cox (Bad Santa) is a Dink. Felix Silla (TWIKI - Buck Rogers) is a Dink. Phil Hartman is the voice of a Dink. Mime Lorene Shields of the mime team Shields and Yarnell plays the physical body of Dot Matrix. Twins Charlene & Marlene (Denise and Dian Gallup) are Doublemint Gum Twins from the TV commercials. Of course the voice talents of Michael Winslow (Police Academy films) are on display here. Great reactions to this fun comedy, Coby!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 Yep, Dick Van Patton starred in the 70s to 80s TV series "Eight is Enough".
