"Prepare for metamorphosis!"
"Ready Kafka!"
Most underrated joke in the movie.
That is one of my favorite jokes in the movie.
It usually gets cut out of reactions.
Nobody gets this joke. And that's what makes it great. It is so unbelievably obscure.
@@HALberdier17 One of my faves is when Skroob is reading Hitler's autobiography "I did nothing wrong!"...upside down.
Evil will always triumph, bc good is dumb
They actually didn't do much merchandise for the movie. That was the deal Mel Brooks made with George Lucas to get his blessing. George asked him not to sell any toys
Oh wow! Makes sense I guess!
Especially since Lonestar looks eerily similar to Han Solo. Lol
Mel Brooks literally added all the merchandising jokes in the movie after being told he wasn't allowed to sell merch. It's meta on top of meta and makes the running merch joke that much funnier upon rewatch! Do History of the World pt. 1 next please!
@@johnbarry1712 As I understand it, _not_ dressing him like Han Solo was also part of the deal, so he got dressed like Indiana Jones instead!
The deal Brooks and Lucas made was no merchandising and Lonestar couldn’t look like Han in exchange for Lucas’s ok to make it and visual effects.
It's my birthday today, so I hope you left a like on the video 👀
Not above using your birthday as leverage. I respect the honesty 😅
@Lolly Wright I tried threats, but I had to stop after the police got involved.
Happy birthday you magnificent bastard
Sure did, happy birthday!
You owe me a drink.
I love your genuineness! You don’t feel the need to put on a personally. I almost feel like I am sitting down to watch films with a buddy rather than watching a UA-cam channel
Appreciate that, dude! 👊
@@RyanCarrington for a true bonkers and schlock piece of 80's sci fi I highly recommend that you react to Flash Gordon (1980), a true comic book film in every way imaginable
Legit. Same reason I watch. The fact I didn’t feel the want to punch you in the face or say stfu, keep them coming my guy.
"Was that the same actor?" Yes. That was John Hurt CBE "simply the greatest actor in the world." He happily reprised the chestburster scene from Alien for the "Oh no, not again" joke. Keep your eye out for him ahead when you get to The Elephant Man, V for Vendetta, Contact, Snowpiercer, Hellboy, and dozens of other films. We lost him in 2017 at age 77.
I watched V for Vendetta on the channel
@Ryan Carrington Thought you had! John Hurt played the big brother-esque dictator on the big screen (appropriate because he also starred in the 1984 1984) Memorable line delivery "I WANT THEM TO REMEMBER WHY THEY NEED US!"
Including olivander in Harry Potter and the voice of the Dragon kilghara in the Merlin tv series.
Glad to see you eventually caught on to the Prince Valium (not Prince Valiant) sleepiness joke. 👑🥱😉 And Happy Birthday! 🎉🎈🎂
Took me way too long but thank god I got there haha
Thank you!
Anyone who does not get it has obviously not seen Beetlejuice where Lydia basically makes the same joke!
@@RyanCarrington Dot: "I know prince Valium is a pill..."
George Lucas loved the idea so much, he gave Mel Brooks access to ILM (the visual effects company he created for Star Wars), that’s why the movie looks so good for a spoof movie.
The condition was that they don’t sell spaceballs toys, that’s why the merchandising joke.
Also, Lone Star couldn’t look like Han Solo. If you pay attention, he’s dressed like Indiana Jones. That’s Mel Brooks being very Mel Brooks.
Mel Brooks is an all time great. We are lucky to have lived in a time where we can enjoy his gift of entertainment. Also I still always say "I hear she gives good helmet" whenever a friend says something abt a hot celebrity. Lol
This isn't Carrington...it's his stunt double!
This was great!
Everyone misses the Prince Valium joke so give yourself some credit for getting it eventually. I've seen several reactions to this movie and I think you're the only person I've seen that actually got the joke.
Young Frankenstein might be Mel Brooks' best film, so I think you'll enjoy that one. Robin Hood: Men in Tights is another parody film by Brooks that you might want to watch as well. It's specifically a parody of the 1993 Kevin Costner film Robin Hood but you don't really need to have seen that to enjoy Men in Tights. You might also want to check out High Anxiety which is a parody of Alfred Hitchcock films, specifically North by Northwest which is also definitely worth watching. High Anxiety brings back Harvey Korman, Cloris Leachman, and Madeline Kahn who were all in Blazing Saddles.
Can't wait to see the next reaction!
You’re realization of Prince Valium was hilarious! Thanks for the laugh.
😂 I'm just glad I finally got it hahaha
Content on your birthday… the commitment! ❤🎉
That was the great Dom Deluise as Pizza the Hut. My favorite Dom character is still Captain Chaos from The Cannonball Run movies
I'm unfamiliar with this person I'm afraid!
@@RyanCarrington At the end of Blazing Saddles, Dom Deluise plays the director of the big dance sequence before the cowboy fight bursts in..."Not in the face!"
Cannonball Run is a lot of fun...you oughta give it a watch.
Don't talk about "Him"! 😁
I like his role as the Pope in Johnny Dangerously. He killed it in Blazing Saddles - I wish I could do the megaphone in the ear bit when correcting people!
@@RyanCarrington You gotta watch Cannonball Run. Old Burt Reynolds movie, worth every second.
“Spaceballs?! Shit, there goes the planet.”
He's Prince VALIUM. Named for a tranquilizer. Hence the sleepiness. :D Edited: Nevermind, you just got it! LOL
I was about to say, keep going haha
It took me wayyyy too long 💀
Though it wouldn't be for a few years after this movie, the 'we ain't found shit' guy (Tim Russ) went on to be in quite a bit of Star Trek, after just losing out to LeVar Burton for TNG...
Tuvok in star trek Voyager
The scene at 15:11 is just cinema history. Perfect.
The merchandising bit is a nod to the fact that Mel Brooks called up George Lucas to give George a heads up that he was thinking about making a film that heavily parodies Star Wars. Lucas didn’t have a problem with it because he loves Brooks’ work, but he insisted that they don’t try and make any merch for it because it would dilute Star Wars merch. So this was fake merch as a tip of the hat to that agreement.
Mel Brooks sent a copy of the screenplay to George Lucas when he asked him about doing the parody. George gave him the OK but on the condition that he wouldn't sell any Spaceballs Merchandise after the film. That's where all that with Yogurt's store came from and you saw the Spaceballs action figures, bed sheets, toilet paper, shaving cream and the rest in the shop came from and the line about Spaceballs 2, the search for More Money.
Lucas even gave Brooks access to ILM to get all those special effects
Three films written by Quentin Tarantino, but directed by different people worth reacting to:
*NATURAL BORN KILLERS*
*TRUE ROMANCE*
*FROM DUSK TILL DAWN*
Quentin will never watch NBK
@@cjpolett2055 Repetition works, David !
NOBODY TELL HIM ANYTHING ABOUT FDTD
true romance is awesome i just mentioned that to him the other day too...i saw a YT video i've watched a certifiable amount of times called ENTER SANDMAN: A MOVIE VILLAINS TRIBUTE... its so bad-ass...just beautiful... and this other channel vilas sheldon 90s action tribute SABOTAGE..its even synchronized... got me in the mood to watch demolition man again
May The Schwartz Be With You.
And with you!
"give my regards to Schwartzmen heimleghen" ~ overboard, 1980s
the desert comber who says "we ain't found sh*t" is the same actor that played Tuvok on Star Trek Voyager
Oh damn, no way!
@@RyanCarrington yes way, lookup Tim Russ - We ain't found... on youtube, he made a joke about it not so long ago
Happy birthday! Don't feel bad about Prince Valium, I've seen a lot of people miss that lol
Little known fact. The Spaceball that yells "WE AIN'T FOUND SHIT!" in the scene when they're "combing" the desert is the Actor Tim Russ who played Tuvok in Star Trek years later. 😁👍
Happy birthday! Thanks for another great reaction, and for sharing yourself with all of us for the past year or so - here's to many more adventures 😁🥳
The radar guy is Michael Winslow, best known as Jones from the Police Academy movies. Mel Brooks has said in later years that he saved a lot of money on a sound effects technician by having Winslow do the radar sounds himself.
Happy Birthday Ryan. Love this movie, the 'We're in the now now' scene my personal highlight.
Thank you!
I know you can't react to every funny moment in the movie, but one of my favorites is "Whatsamatta Colonel Sandurz, chicken?" after he says "Ludicrous speed".
My favorite gag...The bumper sticker on the RV says "I ❤Uranus"
I know other people have said it on other videos, but your editing is a pleasant surprise and it really makes the videos that much better. Great stuff dude
Appreciate that!
I spend way too much time editing, so it's always good to hear a compliment 👊
Happy birthday. 🎉. Great reaction as always. Thanks for all the wonderful content!!
Thank you!
A couple interesting facts. The black actor on the pic in the desert is same actor who played TUVOK on Voyager. To this day still one of his favorite roles. And the nurse with the plastic surgeon is same actress in many movies. Most easily seen is the main Captain in the movie STARSHIP TROOPERS. VERY COOL
FUN REACTION! You had a lot of the really good stuff in the edit. George Lucas loved it. He gave Brooks permission so long as there was no merchandising to compete with his. So the merchandising became a gag throughout the film.
"Keep firing, assholes!" lives rent-free in my head.
I’ve always loved that Dark Helmets “tie” is literally just a dick and balls 😂
Hi Ryan,
George Lucas helped Mel Brooks with his company ILM doing the SFX, and the escape pod takes are even exactly the same as in Star Wars 😉
5:30 Yes, that's Bill Pullman
9:30 The legendary Michael Winslow! If you don't know him, check out "Police Academy" or one of his stand-ups 😂
17:55 Reference to "The wizard of Oz"
18:20 George Lucas helped with the movie production but didn't want any merchandise to be made, especially action figures. That's what the "merchandise running gag" is about 😉
21:00 To my knowlege, this scene was improvised 😂
32:21 Noticed the Millenium Falcon? 😉
Michael Winslow is the Radar guy that makes the noises of the scene with his mouth 😊
The scenes where they were walking to the Yogurt statue and when Yogurt was fading away "oh what a world" were referencing Wizard of Oz 😊😅😊
13:19 Blink and you miss it, the Barf's fire hydrant with the words "Dawg's Room".
I was 9 when this came out and has a crush on Pullman ever since. Yes, he's the ID president. Every movie he's in is gold but this one is classic.
Mel Brooks asked George Lucas if he was allowed to make a spoof about Star Wars
Reading the script, Lucas agreed, and even offered Mel Brooks the use of the visual effects studio that was used to make Star Wars, it's why a lot of the VFX are actually really good for a spoof movie. The only deal was: No merchandise, and he couldn't directly use any characters from Star Wars.
So Mel Brooks worked the merchandise into the story itself and made the main character look like Indiana Jones instead
George loved the movie when he saw it
Fun fact if it hasn't been mentioned. Joan Rivers, the voice of Dot, improvised her ENTIRE role. Mel Brooks didn't write a script for her.
That's pretty cool!
The cringiness of Dark Helmet playing with his dolls is similar to the cringiness in Blazing Saddles when Hedy... I mean Hedley plays with his toy froggy in the bathtub.
Oh yeah, I never thought about that 😂
Young Frankenstein will crack you up, it's my personal favourite Mel Brooks film.
Dude happy birthday and thanks for another great reaction!
I freaking love this movie. When this movie came out I was about 8 and the first time i saw the trailer on tv i was certain it was titled Space Calls because the word balls was off limits for tv back then.
Ahaha! Brilliant 😂
There's a fantastic 1996 John Sayles film called "Lone Star" that's well worth watching. No connection whatsoever with this movie, just the name reminded me.
I love this movie! You’ll have to watch Robin Hood - Men in Tights as that’s equally ridiculous! Great laughs 😃
This movie has many 4th wall breaks and one heavy 4th wall explosion
I'm getting the feeling Mel Brooks loves a 4th wall break haha
This was the 1st reaction of yours I've listened to on headphones. Such a great experience. You do a killer job on the audio on your videos. As always keep up the great work and hope you're doing well my man!
Dude, I really appreciate this. I was moaning to my missus only a few days ago that I got annoyingly fixated on audio and spent hours trying to get it right.
@Ryan Carrington for real? Wow, well tell the missus that all your hard work paid off and didn't go unnoticed. Cheers!
@Metal Andy I did as soon as I saw your comment 😂
Stay metal 🤙
@@RyanCarrington That's awesome!! You know it!
In the part where Dark Helmet asked for a five minute break, it is almost exactly five minutes from the time they leave that scene on Spaceball One, to the start of the next scene on the ship. Please don't ask why I know that.
By the way, Happy Birthday from Newfoundland, Canada.
Watching ur reactions tonight have helped so freaking much..
Thank you again..
Yea it was the same actor as the original first person to be killed with a chestburster (John Hurt)
Good to know! I think I need to watch Alien again haha
Robin Hood: Men In Tights is one of my favourite comedies ever, you should watch it if you get a chance.
Helmet being Lonestar's father#s brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate actually makes them former roommates (Lonestar's father's brother is LonestarÄs uncle, LonestarÄs uncle's nephew is Lonestar's cousin and Lonestar's cousin's cousin is Lonestar himself).
Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 & I liked your videos no matter the day lol..hope you get to enjoy your day to the fullest.
Thank you 😊
Happy Birthday Ryan!!! As usual a great reaction:)
Thank you!
19:01 Best Line Ever! 😂
"When Will Then Be Now??
Soon!!"
love this film, watch it so often, i know it all off by heart
"High Anxiety" is another good Mel Brooks movie. It spoofs Alfred Hitchcock movies.
Almost all Star Wars with a little Star Trek. I think the self destruct voice was the same actress who did the computer voice in Star Trek.
Happy birthday!! Love this movie!!
You should also check out Dracula: Dead and Loving It. It has not only Brooks but also Leslie Nielsen and Harvey Korman in it. Absolutely hilarious take on the Dracula story.
For another kinda different movie with Bill Pulman take the time to watch “Ruthless People “. It’s just a completely hilarious movie. I’m new to the scene so if you have done it already ok but “Robin Hood Men In Tights” is another classic Mel Brookes movie.
Ooh I've bot heard of that one.
Yes, Men in Tights is on the list!
Another "kinda different" ;) movie with Bill Pulman I highly recommend is "Lost Highway" by David Lynch. Dark, disturbing, brilliant.
@@mrtveye6682 I've actually been wanting to get into David Lynch. And other recommendations of his stuff?
@@RyanCarrington Oh, don't get me started on David Lynch. One of my top-3 directors of all time. Basically you can't go wrong with any of his movies, though I have to say, his original version of "Dune" was kinda half hit, half miss, and "Inland Empire" is "to artsy to be pleasant" even for my taste.
If you want to dig deeper into David Lynch, I would start with "Blue Velvet", than "Mulholland Drive" (my absolute favorite), "Wild At Heart" and "Lost Highway". Those are somehow the "classic David Lynch"-style movies.
"Elephant Man" is kinda different, but a real good drama movie. "Straight Story" ist just heart-warming beautiful and shows, that Lynch can do just "straight-forward" storytelling without weird twists and turns too.
And then you might be ready for "Eraserhead" - one of the films I watched, was fascinated, think it's brilliant, but never watched it again, cause it's one of the most disturbing movies I ever watched (and I watch quite a few weird movies).
Oh, and you can throw in "Twin Peaks" - the TV series - any time.
Missed you too, Boo
15:05 That Was The Best Part Of The Movie! 😂
Fun fact..Mel Brooks asked George Lucas for permission to make a spoof of Star Wars…Lucas agreed as long as he didn’t dress Lone Star like Han Solo…so he dressed him like Indiana Jones 😂
Fun fact pizza the hut's costume was actually made of cheese
For a Canadian James Doohan did a very good Scottish accent. Mind Texan John Hillerman did a superb British accent as Higgins in Magnum PI.
You’re the only person reacting to this movie that has ever mentioned Michael Winslow almost breaking at what Rick did. Amazing how the obvious change in his tone when speaking like he’s trying to stifle a laugh goes over people’s heads. Mind many people also miss that Dark Helmet has a cock and balls for a tie 🤷🏻♂️
George Lucas actually liked the idea and allowed the Millennium Falcon to be parked at the dinner
I never thought about Colonel Sanders outfit does look a lot like M.Bison from Street Fighter. And to think this movie proceeded the actual arcade game by at least 5 to 6 years.
Comedic brilliance
14:03 Sunglasses 🕶️ A Hairbrush And A Water Bottle Is Enough For The Desert.
You'll be delighted to know I heard the video title "What A Spoof!" in Dark Helmet's voice - particularly the tone he has whilst berating Lone Starr's gullibility in the Self Destruct room scene :P
As to what he did to the danglies? Put the squeeze on em. Force Choke and all that. :P
Haha I can hear it! 😂
The Producers is another great MB film, especially the newer version with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick.
Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊
Thank you! 👊
I proudly own spaceballs the soundtrack
The digital censoring sound made me think I was listening to an Atari Teenage Riot album.
He's got blue balls and he reads real good!
The wouldn't let Lone Star dress like Han Solo, so Brooks dressed him as Indiana Jones.
Happy Birthday!
Thank you
You need Young Frankenstein in your life
Everybody does!
2:43 Juiced Em Grapes Real Hard Into A Not So Subtle Fine Wine. 🍇🍷😬🤪😬🤪
I love it ❤happy birthday to you brother
Thanks bro!
Happy Birthday Ryan! 🎊🎁
A cake emoji is the best I can do: 🎂🎂🎂
Enjoy your day🎉
I appreciate it, thank you!
happy bday Ryan
Thank youu
Happy birthday 🥳
Thank you!
Nice reaction mate , If you want another 80s classic to check out , Can I suggest Big Trouble in Little China , Its a little ridiculous, it has 80s action and 80s Martial arts in it , Good old Jack Burton and the Porkchop Express
I'm surprise hardly anyone watches the commentary… it's on the DVD, but was part of laserdisc version they put out! Mel Brooks even mentioned the laserdisc in the commentary! As well as that he(Mel Brooks) wanted the whole movie being just the ship going across the screen! 😂😂
That's something I miss about buying DVDs. I'd watch Commentary on all my favourite movies when available.
@@RyanCarringtonyeah and I'm such a fan of this movie and sci-fi movies/shows in general, that I have a bunch of it on DVD (VHS as well)! 😉😉
Try Mel Brooks Dracula Dead and Lovin It next time, awesome 👌 request 😀
And if look closely at parking lot at Cafe will see the Millineum Falcon there
I just found your channel love it I'm going to subscribe on the basis alone you knew who Joan Rivers voice was you rock like Elvis.
Appreciate it, man! 👊
Not sure if some else said it but here it goes the merch joke is because g Lucas made most of his money from star wars off of merchandise and not actually getting a normal salary which i believe he gave up due to the movie going over budget and gave the green light to this movie based on an agreement with m brookes not to make any space balls merchandise
33:06 its the same guy from Alien
You should check out Mel Brooks' "Life Stinks". It is one of my favorites. It has heart and it's funny. I don't know why more people don't do a reaction to that to movie, cause it's really good.
Absolutely Agree!! Definitely Underrated!!
@@jamesedwards2483 ...I know, right? I think there is only like one reaction on youtube to that movie, yet I think it is one of Mel Brooks' best...weird.
Happy Birthday
Thank you
6:45 I Need To Lose Mine! 😬
Hilariously this movie had twice the budget of the first Star Wars movie
Blimey! 😂
Love this film ❤
Now you need to watch Galaxy Quest!
Yes, definitely!
Try Young Frankenstein!!
