That is the right way for a spoof. They have to be functional in the genre in their own right. And Spaceballs is a good spoof that also works as a good scifi comedy.
Nope. The ship being that long was not to set up 'We break for nobody.' If the humor was just that, it could have been a regular sized ship and the effect would have been the same. The comedy in this scene was how ridiculously long the ship is. In fact if 'we break for nobody' wasn't on the back of the ship, the humor would have still been the same. So, I guess what I am saying is, you missed the joke.
Something I never noticed until now: you can actually hear the engines starting at about 0:25, which further leads you into thinking "this has to be end, right?"
It be freaking hilarious if they made it go for 5 Min only for a narrator or director say 'Hurry up already' and it's just a 10m wide Ring ship just spinning around lol.
WE BRAKE FOR NOBODY! I was laughing so hard! This movie is 25 yrs old still funny and gets me every time! BARF, Lone Star, Princess Vespa, Dot, RIP John Candy!
If they did a reboot they could play Apollo 440 Can't Stop the Rock or at least have like a cultural reference to it and the Independence Day "I'm Baaack" guy. lol

@@jaredruff9823 What? This thing is at minimum 100 times the size of Titanic, which is generous. It would need very very exotic materials to not break itself apart from the sheer mass during any maneuver adding angular momentum. It would likely require the entire planets resources and most manpower to construct in less than 100 years. This thing is absolutely massive, and it is in space :9
This is my favorite part of any movie ever. The drama is perfect. The looooooooooooooong shot of the battleship kills me every time. I always have to replay everytime I watch because I love it so much.
As a kid, because I watched this so many times the VHS tape broke, I always remembered that when I saw the largest "wing" at 1:04 the end of the ship was near.
Spaceball One is said to be 11km (6.8 miles) in length! In feet, that would be 35,904 feet! The RMS Titanic, which measured 883 feet long, would be teeny tiny compared to this thing!! If Spaceball One was to be sent in a nose dive down to the wreck of the Titanic on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, only a third of the ship would be underwater!! Yes, a Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet would be like a mosquito compared to the size of Spaceball One!! This thing is HUMONGOUS!!
Spaceballs is real masterpiece - funny, interesting, intriguing and very entertaining. Visual effects were awesome too.This parody on Star Wars, Alien, Planet of Apes became my favorite spoof film (along with Galaxy Quest). Bill Pullman, Daphne Zuniga, John Candy, Mel Brooks, Rick Moranis and all others did a brilliant job. Too bad they didn't make a sequel. That-time Spoof films had nice jokes while our modern ones only can use strong language, black humour & sex. No originality these days

Well, brace yourself. A sequel has been into talks with Mel Brooks and the rest of the cast. Quite possibly to be "The Search for More Money".
I remember reading about this joke in a movie magazine but it was so much funnier to see it for myself, instead of it being described in a non partisan review.
This ship is GINORMOUS, measuring 11km (6.8 miles) in length! Going by the time it takes to view the entire ship, Spaceball One would be traveling at a speed of 237.67 miles per hour! Each one of the engines has a diameter that appears to match the overall length of the LZ-129 Hindenburg, which measured 804 feet long! If one were to send Spaceball One down to the wreck of the RMS Titanic (which lies 2.5 miles underwater at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean), in a direct nose dive, only a third of the ship's overall length would be submerged! I'm also certain that the metal alloys that were used in the construction of Spaceball One would be strong enough to endure the pressures encountered in those kind of water depths. UPDATE: Tues, 11/16/2021 @ 00:16 Hours: I got more details that will help give a really good idea of the size of Spaceball One: a Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet measuring 250 feet long would take up three quarters of the diameter of the radar dish that is "jammed"! Another place on Spaceball One that you can put the 747 airliner is on top of the bridge of the ship! And the tower supporting that huge radar dish appears to be a bit taller than the Saturn V rocket that took the first men to the moon. Saturn V measures 363 feet tall!
I dunno, the _Cathedral Terra_ from Gurren-Lagann is the largest actual vessel I've ever seen in media: easily in the ballpark of around *twice the length of our Moons' diameter.* Its' so large that the crewmen have no choice but to rely upon an internal teleportation network to be able to get anywhere around the ship fast enough. Its production capacity alone is frighteningly efficient that in just a matter of minutes; it is able to create an entire armada of Space Gunmen: Mecha that are roughly around 500 meters in height that can themselves house up to 180,000 people outside of combat: easily large enough to support a population equivalent to that of Ontario, California.

FunkMasterFlex3 It's perfectly accurate. The Eclipse is at least twice as massive, *not* twice as long. Some of the original portrayals showed it as being longer than the Executor, but those have since been retconned; the Executor class is 19km, and the Eclipse is 17.5km. That's from official sources if you care.
Honestly this is a good parody of a Star Destroyer entrance. I mean if they used this angle for the Executor's entrance on Empire, it would nearly look and take as much time as this. Well done this I say. A surprise to be sure but a welcome one.
The Executor/Super Star Destroyer from Return of the Jedi is bigger actually. Oh man, did I just sound like a big Star Wars geek. Ok, I am. (Love Spaceballs though)
Executor-Class Star Destroyer: 19 km Eclipse-Class Dreadnought: 17 km Sovereign-Calss Dreadnought: 15 km Mega-Class Star Destroyer: 60 km Spaceball 1: 11 km So it's big, not as big than the dreadnoughts on this list but that opening scene is pretty long. Imagine Episode 5 opened with the Executor panning to the screen? It would take like 2 minutes and 30 seconds to pan the entire ship
Oy Gevalt! It must have taken 6 months to build that opening scene spaceship! Having seen the STAR DESTROYER at ILM whilst they were making EMPIRE, the 11 ft. new one (as opposed to the 3 footer for NEW HOPE) I was told it took 6 months to build -- hence why it looked so damn cool. Now this one! Wowza indeed. Kudos to the effects house and Mel Brooks for creating this outstanding model. If they did it these days in CGI, they better get some real artistes as the newbies get lazy and just 'duplicate-duplicate-duplicate' just to get it done. A pity.
Spaceballs introduces a ridiculously large ship as a parody of The opening of A New Hope. Result a joke that still holds up to this day. The Last Jedi introduce the First Order flagship Supremacy that might be even bigger than the ludicrously-oversized Spaceball One and does so as an attempt at serious Drama. End result, A Joke that will likely stand the text of time despite the film makers continuously saying that it's meant to be taken seriously Dammit!!!
Lol, I expected the ship to have passed by numerous times with the sections dipping down, but nope. 0:30, you would think that's the engine exhaust. 0:56, you would then think, oh this is the aft bridge so it's almost over.

Travis Linton Sinister..... Perfect take on it, as many times as I've seen it, including in the theater. It's spin off "Jaws". You made me laugh hard
You can just imagine the look on musicians' faces in the orchestra pit.
It's like the music has to keep repeating itself because the ship is so big they need to fill time.
The conductor is that guy from Monty Python that yells "Get on with it!"
Sounds like the Jaws theme.
My favorite part about this whole scene is how you can clearly hear the orchestra getting louder and more frantic as they start to get frustrated. 😂
I can just imagine the conductor flipping off the ship as he has his orchestra start from the top
President Scroob: This ship is too long! If I walked, the movie would be over!
