There's a Star Wars RPG and a Star Trek RPG, but why aren't there any Space Balls ones. Who wouldn't love a campaign setting with a Mel Brooks played Yoda rip off or a goofy and incompetent Lord Dark Helmet.
No wait, no I don't; I'd have to be as funny as Mel Brooks to carry it off, and I'm not sure I'm up for it. I think it'd be a lot of fun as a one-shot, though.
Hey GBK, while you're changing your sig, it's a little big. Could you please put the {size=1} {/size} brackets around it, changing the {} to []? That'll make it smaller without changing the text. thanks!
I just don't think people are very interested in comedy role-playing, though I could be wrong. I know a lot of funny people, but sitting them down at a gaming table and saying "we're playing spaceballs, so be funny!" just doesn't seem like a good idea.
And I had a great deal of fun with Ghostbusters, Paranoia (back in print!) and Tabloid! all humorous RPGS.
Spaceballs? No, doesn't appeal to me, though you could fake it with the Starwars games. But then I didn't much like the movie either. (Young Frankenstien? Yes. Blazing Saddles? Yes. The Producers? Oh, yes. Spaceballs? I didn't get the feeling that he even liked the genre he was parodying.)
Okay, choose another film by Brooks, preferably from his Perfect Trinity -- The Producers, Blazing Saddle, and Young Frankenstein. By the time he made Spaceballs, he had lost all ability to be funny...
(...it's okay, I'm in therapy over this one, too...)
