SPACEBALLS had me cracking UP!! | First Time Reaction

The Alien scene, the reason the man says “not again” is because the actor is John Hurt, he played the character Caine in the film Alien, that has the alien burst out of his chest!

“You’ve captured their stunt doubles” is one of my favorite jokes in any movie 😂

"I am your father's, brother's, nephew's, cousin's, former roommate."

"What's wrong Colonel Sanders, chicken?" Can't believe that scene went over my head all these years! lol

The guy who says, "We ain't found shit", Is Tim Russ. He would go on to play Lieutenant Tuvok, on Star Trek: Voyager, from 1995-2001.

The subtle jokes are just as good as the obvious ones. When Dark Helmet slams into the wall after stopping from Ludicrous speed and says to take a 5 minute break, it's actually 5 minutes of runtime before he's onscreen again. The merchandising scene was in the film as Lucas gave Brooks the ability to make the film and use his effects studio as long as there was no merchandising. He also wasn't allowed to have Lonestar look like Han Solo, so Brooks made him look like Indiana Jones instead. The actor in the diner with the chest buster is the actor that had this in Alien, hence the "not again" line. Love this film and watching people discover it ❤

Valium is a prescribed medication that relaxes you and makes you sleepy. That is why Prince Valium is yawning/sleeping. It's one of my favourite jokes in the movie

When “Rogue One” came out and there was a planet shield that needed a combination, guess what came to mind?

One of my all time favourite movies! Rick Moranis ended up costing Mel Brooks "a lot" of money, since the crew (including Brooks) couldn't help but laugh during his scenes, most notably when he first appears on screen and has breathing problems. George Lucas lended the services of his company ILM to shoot some scenes. The escape pod dropping out was actually a (once) deleted scene from A New Hope. He agreed to let Brooks make the movie on the condition that he couldn't make merchandise, hence the running gag throughout the movie. And he didn't want Lone Star to dress like Han, so Brooks chose to dress him like Indiana Jones. Rick Moranis improvised the entire scene where he plays with his dolls, he was sick and had a fever that day and still came up with one of the best scenes. The original title was Planet Moron. Brooks had a bad reaction to the Yogurt make up and got a bad rash around his eyes. The voice Dark Helmet has when his... dark helmet visor is down is inspired by David Prose, the physical actor for Darth Vader in the original trilogy, and how he sounded with the mask on set. You can find footage of it.

The radar tech who did the sound effects is Michael Winslow. He appeared in the Police Academy franchise and some other stuff before taking a break to raise his children after his wife died. A year or two ago, he competed on America's Got Talent. Michael actually saved some production money on this movie by doing his own sound effects.

The baby Alien singing is an homage to a very classic Warner Brothers cartoon, where a man down on his luck finds a magical frog that does that song and dance. However, every time he tries to show the magical frog to someone, the frog doesn't do the act. So everyone thinks the man is crazy. (Sigh) when cartoons weren't afraid to be dark in subtle ways.

"You idiots! You've captured their stunt doubles!" My favorite joke of the movie. Stephen Tobolowsky crushes his one scene. He's so pompous until the reveal and his gasp of shock is perfect 🤣🤣🤣

Funny, she doesn't look druish 😂😂😂 great, that's all we need, a druish princess 😂😂😂

"When did we get to Disneyland?" Ironic foreshadowing right there.

"Delightfully stupid" is a great description!

"Evil will always triumph because good is dumb!" I love that line.

History of the World Part One is vital. High Anxiety after you've fallen down an Alfred Hitchcock rabbit hole.

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. 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!

My favourite Mel Brooks film. John Candy as Barf and Joan Rivers as Dot Matrix are priceless. Rest in Peace legends. Best spoof movie ever.

Easter egg for you Addie, don't know if you noticed or not but when our boys stop at the cafe near the end of the film, you'll notice the Millennium Falcon parked out front......🤣🤣🤣
