[QUOTE="paradox42, post: 3084181, member: 29746"] IME people who have seen Spaceballs fall into two camps: either they love it and think it's brilliant (me, and most of the people I know), or they hate it, for various reasons along the lines of "it's pointless" "it's too silly" or other things that all really boil down to "the humor isn't my style." That alone is an interesting phenomenon in my book, to have such extreme reactions from the movie. For me, the best part about it is all the break-the-fourth-wall gags, like the camera hitting Dark Helmet's faceplate and knocking him down, or when Colonel Sandurz uses the remote to turn off the whole movie. :lol: I've always loved that kind of joke, and Spaceballs took it to a whole new dimension (literally and figuratively)!
