Trailer Spaceballs 2: Not the Quest for More Money

[Ryujin]

Not the title that we were promised, but set for release in 2027.

The subtitle is implicit. In, like, most sequels and tie-ins.

Oh gods, no.

I now feel bad- I thought he was dead.

I'll be honest, the new History of the World they did....was not good. Comedy has its time, comedians have their high points, but then there is a moment when they just "don't seem funny anymore".

I still watch and quote the OG spaceballs today, but I am terrified that any new one would just be hot garbage.

Living up to the original is going to be a tall order. But the ensuing years have also provided a lot of material ripe for parody.

I kinda feel like the time for all these 80s sequels passed the world by about 20 years ago. There's a ton of 80s nostalgia now, sure, but the original actors are all in their 70s.

... or they aren't in their '70s .

The older I get, the more tragic John Candy's death at 43 feels.

 

[Dioltach]

They could parody Rogue One with some eerie CGI faces.

I love Spaceballs. I want to think this could be great... depends on how willing they are to be daring and whether they will do the work to be creative and witty (ie not just simple reversal parody or "isn't this funny?" kind of stuff).

Mawg tails and Schwartzs crossed!
