Those little guys in the robes that rescued them in the desert were a parody of the Star Wars creatures called Jawas. And it wasn't any Disney song they were whistling. That song's called "Colonel Bogey March", and it was written in 1914 by a British Army Lieutenant. It's been used in movies again and again over the years, mostly war or military movies. But the kids in "The Breakfast Club" did whistle it together in the library.

Who of course Mel Brooks had already referenced to in his first movie 'The Producers' in 1968 - the scene where they're looking for the worst play ever written, and Max Bialystock reads aloud "Gregor Samsa awoke one morning to discover he had been transformed into a giant cockroach" then says "It's too good." That was my introduction to Metamorphosis. Luckily they reuse that joke in the 2000s musical and movie musical. Apparently in the directors commentary for 'Spaceballs', when they get up to the 'Ready Kafka?' Mel comments 'Why did I write that joke? That's a bad joke."

Provided they did no merchandising -Rick Moranis is another great comedic actor! In fact, the scene where Dark Helmet is playing with his dolls was completely improvised by him. Sadly his wife passed away from cancer and he retired from acting to be a full time dad for his kids -as others have pointed out, the diner scene is another spoof of Alien. In fact, it’s the same actor John Hurt who gets the alien explode from his stomach. The fact that the alien sings like Michigan J Frog from Looney Tunes makes it even funnier!

The guy that was in this scene is John Hurt and he is reprising his roll from the original Alien movie from 1979 where this same thing happened, hence the line "Oh no. Not again." Also, I don't know if ya'll know this, but Mel Brooks didn't just direct this movie, but he also played as President Skroob and Yogurt.

Not again!" was a reference to the movie Alien, when the creature burst out of a man's chest--and yes, the man in Alien was played by John Hurt, the same actor in the diner.

Max Headroom was a character who started in Maxel commercials, then went on to do a short lived comedy. The person sitting next to Pizza (Dom Delouise) was fashioned after Max.

Next movie you should check out is Young Frankenstein. It is a Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder movie. One of the funniest ever.

I've always loved that intro shot of SpaceBall One. That was a real physical model built by ILM. It was one of the largest they ever made at 17ft long.

@annieromo74 8 месяцев назад

Also, I forgot to mention that the last scene where the Spaceballs come out of mega maids nose is actually from the original movie called Planet of the Apes in which an astronaut gets lost in space and land on a planet, where the apes rule and human beings are basically caged animals. The last scene of that movie is the human astronaut, played brilliantly by Charlton Heston, Rides on the beach and comes to what used to be the Statue of Liberty, and he realizes that he is on the earth just in a different reality. That’s a fantastic movie too.

You might want to edit your comment because they haven’t seen planet of the apes yet and you just spoiled it for them. So if they read the comments you just told them the plot line

At the truck stop diner, the alien creature singing "Hello My Honey..." is from the Warner Brothers cartoon called One Froggy Evening.

When you are up for a good scary movie again, you need to watch Alien.

@johnnysoccer1983 8 месяцев назад

YES!!!!! This was one of the earliest movies I remember watching, I've seen it dozens of times and it's ALWAYS hilarious..... Only got better as I got older and started getting some of the references to other movies I didn't know.

I would recommend two movies by Alex Proyas. “The Crow” is a fantastic film (though it sadly took the life of its lead actor (Brandon Lee, son of Bruce Lee)). It’s a supernatural revenge film, basically. Dark and gritty. “Dark City” is a dark science fiction film which is so damned good - it is criminally underrated.

@NWRefund 8 месяцев назад

Also, I would recommend an OLD movie with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn called “Charade.” So good.

@NWRefund 8 месяцев назад

Oh, I’d also recommend “Labyrinth,” which is a fantasy film with David Bowie in it and a young Jennifer Connelly. Puppets and puppeteers by Jim Henson’s workshop.

@NWRefund 8 месяцев назад

If you REALLY want to push the envelope, you should watch “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Meatloaf…

@NWRefund 8 месяцев назад

Also, regarding the alien bursting out of that guy’s chest, you should watch “Alien.”

Crow also had a great soundtrack! Such a shame about Brandon Lee 😢💔 I also Love Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story

@tediousmaximus1067 8 месяцев назад

The dancing alien in the diner is a send-up of the movie Alien which you must react to one day. And yes the apes at the end were referring to the original Planet of the Apes (1968) movie which is another one you must do in the future. Both movies are brilliant!

@aliciazambri4237 8 месяцев назад

As someone else mentioned,the diner scene towards the end is spoofing the movie Alien. The guy that had the alien pop out of his chest was the actor in the movie Alien, which is why he said "Not again." And I find that to be the funnies scene in the movie! Also, the scene where Dark Helmet and company landed on the beach and the monkey guy rode up is spoofing Planet of the Apes. I love this movie and I can literally recite it verbatim from beginning to end. So glad you got around to this one.

The Twins at about 9:30 are Dian and Denise Gallup. They were the "Doublemint Twins" for a long time. Wrigley's Doublemint gum had always featured twins in their ads. They were parodying themselves therefore, hence why he says "Chew your gum" to them.

I'm shocked that J doesn't know Who's on First (it's Abbott and Costello)!! You need to show it to him. A few things about the movie: Lonestar is dressed like Indiana Jones Yes, Valium is a tranquilizer hence the Prince being so sleepy. And J is right, there was a frog on Looney Toons that did the top hat a and cane song and dance. Once you watch the Alien movies and the Planet of the Apes movies, you'll get the references.

The funny part about Lonestar: George Lucas had a few conditions for Mel to make this movie. One is they couldn't have the main character look like Han Solo. So they made him look like Indiana Jones instead.... George also said they couldn't do merchandise (other than home video releases), hence all the jokes about merch...

@4ever2good 8 месяцев назад

John Hurt was the one in the chest burster scene in Alien, that's why he says "Not again". For me it shows how genius Mel Brooks is. IF you haven't seen it, my favorite spoof is Robin Hood, Men in Tights. Put that on your list, it's amazing

I saw this in the theater when I was 10 years old. The line that always made me laugh was, "You know what princess? You are ugly when you're angry." I still say it to my wife when she gets mad. It rarely goes well for me.

@annieromo74 8 месяцев назад

First of all thanks so much for all your reactions, and for all your hard work. Your videos always show how much effort you put in. Now just FYI: the last scene that you saw where the creature came out of the guys chest? That was from the movie Alien (the first one). And the guy that it happened to in Spaceballs, his name is John Hurt, he is the guy that it happened to an Alien also. There are so many references to great sci-fi movies. Mel Brooks is the master of these kind of spoof movies. He makes them so well so tongue-in-cheek, so sarcastic, and so hilariously funny. Now you’ve got to review his movie Robin Hood: Men In Tights (guess what that’s a spoof of? LOL!). It is really very funny. Thanks again for all your hard work. I’ve been a subscriber of yours since I first saw your reaction a year ago! 😊👍🙏

Mel Brooks He’s from Brooklyn New York. He plays President Skroob and Yogurt and he’s the Director.

@buckbuchanan4902 8 месяцев назад

A few of the movie reverences in this, that you need to watch are the Aliens movies, the Planet of the Apes movies, and of course the Star Trek movies (and show!). Both of them are great series, but make sure you start from the beginning. Mel Brooks played the evil commander and also Yogurt. Some other great comedies by him are: The Producers, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, High Anxiety and History of the World: part 1.

@shawbros 8 месяцев назад

"A few of the movie reverences in this, that you need to watch" You mean should have watched **prior** to watching this movie,

@melenatorr 8 месяцев назад

And that is why Yogurt comes by his Brooklyn accent honestly and legitimately. As a native Brooklynite myself, I can swear it is so.

The scene where they are combing the desert, the Spaceball with the pick, that actor was Tim Russ. He went on to star in another famous space franchise, Star Trek. He played Tuvok, security chief of the Voyager on Star Trek: Voyager.

@wayneumbach9413 8 месяцев назад

One of my go to movies when I need a laugh. Can never go wrong with Mel Brooks. Jay, you have to take a few minutes and watch the Who’s on First routine by Abbott and Costello. You can’t be a sports fan, and not know this routine!

"Chew your gum." Best line in film last 40 years.

It is crazy. Yeah Joan Rivers is Dot and Bill Pullman plays the Han Solo type. Daphne zuniga is princess Vespa. Also Mel Brooks is not only the director but he plays yogurt and a few other people. He also directed and starred in young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder

Brooks didn't actually appear in "Young Frankenstein".

Classic Mel Brooks comedy. He once said what while the movies he’s best known for are Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein, his best selling movies are Spaceballs and Robin Hood Men in Tights.

The bit about Lone Star only taking expenses instead of all the reward money for returning the runaway bride is lifted directly from It Happened One Night, which is the first movie to sweep the top Oscars (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress) and starred Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert.
