[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9275316, member: 7006"] I think the one thing that from Star Wars that would work really well for a Spaceballs parody event would be everything that occurs on Endor. That whole Return of the Jedi ending is just running so close to the edge of self-parody itself-- teddy bears taking on a full military unit using nothing rocks and logs and ropes and such-- that it wouldn't take much to nudge things just ever-so-slightly and turn the entire third act of that film into a bunch of comedy sketches for roleplay and action in a Spaceballs RPG. Even something as simple as the chase scene on "Speeder Bikes" by having all the PCs on actual bicycles trying to pedal and ride through a forest would be comedy in itself. Instead of teddy bear "Ewoks", the forest moon is filled with cute aaracocka "Seahawks". The party's mission is to go down to the surface and take out the "Shield generator"... which is nothing more than an Artificer on a tall platform casting the [I]Shield[/I] spell over and over again out of a wand or something. Best of luck with what you come up with! [/QUOTE]
