I can’t imagine the makers of a movie 38 years ago, which felt dated 37.9 years ago will come up with anything that isn’t awful. Has anyone watched Spaceballs this century?

I saw it in the theatre a few years ago.


I get the hate for Spaceballs. Unlike his other movies that parodied genres he loved, he was just taking on the hot new space movie. I still love it because it's full of jokes, and I'll watch anything with John Candy and Rick Moranis.

Spaceballs holds up better than a lot of comedy movies. I can’t see how it’s “dated”. Sitcoms from the 90s have dated worse than Spaceballs.

Comb the desert!

I always knew people are the worst, but I never imagined this was possible.

Mel Brooks movies are all terrible and unfunny. Especially Blazing Saddles, where a Jew and a black guy team up and belittle rural whites.

Perhaps your opinion is clouded by you not liking black or jewish people?

Great. I have rethink all of my life’s choices, including rewatching Spaceballs, now that D-bag thanked my post.

Can’t say I’ve seen any of his movies myself but I’ll definitely give him the benefit of the doubt and avoid siding with the board’s resident homeschooled klan member.

The VVitch and the Light House, were such original movies and ideas. Selfishly, I would like some more of that.

Even the Northman felt novel and exciting.

What an age where you feel confident in allowing your prejudice to be viewed so openly. Grubs like you never used to show yourself to the surface.
You’re yucky
