    Mel Brooks, and George Lucas are actual friends.
    George gave Mel his complete blessing to do this parody.
    The only thing Mel was not allowed to do is sell actual toys, thus the infamous Merchandising scene in the movie.
    The Ships being see are actual Star Wars ships. George allowed Mel to use the actual models.
    George loves Space Balls, and laughed when he watched it according to interviews.

The little Jawa wannabes dink dink song was for Col Bogey and the BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI. When our four heroes are about to meet Yogurt, that was a WIZARD of OZ moment. The singing dancing belly buster alien, Warner Brothers cartoon, ONE FROGGY EVENING. Lots of stupid sight and sound gags. And the inevitable fourth wall. So glad you had a great time as well.

    The Millennium Falcon is in the parking lot at the diner that Lonestar is at. Also the 7 singing creatures that give them water is a parody of jawas of Star Wars combined with the 7 dwarves of Snow White. That's why Lonestar mentions Disneyland. When they go to see Yogurt, it's a parody of The Wizard of Oz.

    We did do well on the test and I very clearly remember the movie we watched was Space Balls.

    I love Mel Brooks and this Movie. Probably one reference people don't get is the reference to one of the greatest films of all time 1934's film It Happened One Night. A Guy is trying to take a spoiled girl back to her father and get a reward. They can't stand each other but fall in love. At the end he doesn't take the reward but just his expenses just like this movie. If you want to see one of the greatest romantic comedies of all time, I would highly recommend watching it.

    Unfortunately they haven't made Spaceballs 2, Mel Brooks wanted to make but it's been delayed for many different reasons over years, such the death of his then wife Anne Bancroft in 2005, in fact she was a famous actress in her own right and she was beautiful also. Mel Brooks just turned 97 in June so I doubt the second movie will happen, here's a important fact that you will appreciate especially Mary about Mel Brooks, he is a WW-2 Veteran and was U.S. Army Combat Engineer who was involved in "The Battle Of the Bulge", which is in your homeland area.

    Strange to hear a movie that came out when I was in high school called a classic. Anyway...
    The way the princess's car launched might be a nod to the "Thunderbirds" show, the one with the marionettes. Thunderbird 2 launched that way and the car vaguely resembles it.
    The Ford Galaxie (that is the right spelling) was a full sized sedan, mainly, produced in 1960s into the early 70s.
    The alien song and dance was a nod to Michigan J. Frog, a cartoon character who made a few appearances. He was something of a cursed frog found in a box in the foundation of a building. It would sing and dance, but only for the man who found it. Anyone else shows up, it's just a frog again. This caused the guy no end of trouble.

    "Shall I have Snotty beam you down?" - That's a parody of Star Trek. There was a character named Scotty, who was the had engineer, and they used teleporters called "Transporters" to get from the ship to the surface of a planet and back again, or to other ships. The process was called "Beaming". As in "Beam us down." or "Beam me aboard."

    Thanks for this one! It's great you got to see this one after some of the references. The Alien reference is actually a tribute to the Warner Brothers cartoon character Michigan J. Frog or "The Singing Frog." It is a short cartoon that will make clear what the Alien is doing but the frog shows up in a ton of Warner Bros. Cartoons. The first time I saw the frog was in the movie "1001 Rabbit Tales" which is just a "clip-show" of old cartoons set in a through-story of Bugs Bunny telling tales to a kid alla "One Thousand and One Nights" where we get the stories of Aladdin, Shahrazad, and Shahryar. Have you seen any of the old Warner Bros. Cartoons? It might be a purely American thing. Classic Bugs stuff would be "Rabbit Seasoning" or "Rabbit of Seville." Anyone else have any favorite Warner Bros. Cartoons?

    The Alien singing is a reference to a short cartoon called Michigan J Frog.
    Is only about 5 minutes but if you watch it you'll get that joke.
    When the first meet Yogurt, that scene is a reference to the Wizard of Oz.

    The scene when they were walking toward the large statue of Yogurt was symbolizing 1939 colorized movie "The Wizard of Oz". The princess is Dorothy, Dot-Matrix is the Tin Man, Barf is the cowardly lion, and Lonestar is the scarecrow (at least I think that is who they are supposed to represent).

      Wizard of Oz was not 'colorized', per se. The 'Oz' portion of the movie was made in Technicolor.

Our local theater operated as a second-run theater, so you got a big discount but had to wait a long time for popular movies. I remember waiting a very long time for The Empire Strikes Back.

    I just showed your reaction to Spaceballs to my next door neighbor and he picked up on a couple of jokes you might have missed. When Lone Star is sitting by the fire and tells the Princess he was born somewhere in the Ford Galaxy it's a play on words. A Ford Galaxie (not a misspelling) is a model of a car that was very popular from 1959-1974. It was replaced by the Ford LTD.
    When the 4 enter Yogurt's cave and approach his statue, it's a short parody on the Wizard of Oz scene where Dorothy, Tin Man, Scare Crow, and Cowardly Lion approach the Wizard for the first time. I can't believe I missed these two scenes.

    A fun bit of trivia about this movie is that Brooks felt it might tread too close to Star Wars at times so he went and asked George Lucas for permission. Lucas gave him permission but said it was conditional on them not making merchandise of the movie. That is where the whole Spaceballs: The Merch scene came from, mocking SW for all it's merch and the line "Merchandising: Where the real money from the movie is made" is in reference to his talk with Lucas.

    To "give someone the raspberry" is an old-timey insult gesture. To stick out your tongue and make a fart sound with your mouth.
    The guy working the jammed radar station was also in Police Academy. Worth a watch.
    A "Druish Princess" is a reference to a "Jewish Princess"; A stereotypical spoiled American Jewish woman.
    Schwartz means black. You may remember Blazing Saddles, the Jewish/Native American chief saw the black people in the wagon and said "Schvartzes!"

    That was Dom Deluise as Pizza the Hut. He also played the director of the musical at the end of Blazing Saddles and he was Don Giovanni in Robin Hood: Men in Tights. If you keep watching Mel Brooks movies you'll see him again, like actually see him though. Like Cloris Leachman, Madeline Kahn, and Harvey Korman, Brooks liked having him in many of his movies.
    Deluise also had the starring role in the 1979 comedy-drama movie *Fatso*, a good, but not great, sweet and sentimental little movie, that is also worth watching if you are ever in the mood for something like that. The film was produced and directed by Anne Bancroft and she starred in it too, she is one of the legendary actresses of Hollywood and she was also Mel Brooks' wife from 1964 until her death in 2005.
    Deluise also was a good friend of Burt Reynolds (Jack Horner in Boogie Nights) and they did a lot of movies together.
    Also, recommending again you watch *The Muppet Movie* (1979) I really think you'll like it and it's a great time for you to see it! 😊
    Best Regards!

    I appreciate that the Tesla car company is not afraid to joke around and not take themselves too seriously. The "Ludicrous Mode" that they included in their cars, and the race track capable "Plaid Edition" are references to the speeds of the Spaceballs ship. And the stereo volume and fan speeds in the cars go to a maximum number of 11 instead of 10, which is a reference to the rock music mockumentary This is Spinal Tap.

Some even have modern juke boxes at the tables, that pull up MP3s.
