Sweet! The first one was a classic! Too bad no John Candy to play barf for this one :cry:

"I see your schwartz is as big as mine!"

[bignick]

I have a bad feeling that this one will suck.

[Wshakspear]

He's writing the script...and thats where there at. when they start signing people on i'll get excited.

(actually, i already am, but i dont want to get too depressed if it doesnt work out.)

[Backlash]

Hmm, the first was so awesome, I hope this isn't a case where the sequel can't live up to expectations, no matter how good it is :(

But here's to hoping it does!

[Nirvanaguy777]

awesome, cant wait for this

[evilmax17]

I can see it making fun of all the rereleases, like:

Greedo shoots first.
Han-"Hey! I was supposed to shoot first"
Greedo-"No you weren't"
Han-"How about we both shoot at the same time"
Greedo-"Alright, on three"

Something to that effect

[daikaiju]

What's the matter Col. Sanders? Chicken ?

[Kaijufan]

This sounds good. I cant wait for it.

[Reality's Fringe]

"I knew it. I'm surrounded by assholes!" *puts helmet down "Keep firing, Assholes!" <The movie is a classic, and I'll see the new one for sure.

[Ikohn4ever]

I am still waitin for my spaceballs flamethrower to come in the mail

[ZeroSupporT]

Hopefully they won't touch it up so much with new technology and effects and just let the actors roll out the jokes like in the first one. I would hate to see it all hollywood-ed up.

It was posted on Fark, so they're probably getting hammered pretty good. It took a couple times of reloading to get it to go through for me.

[anonymouswhoami]

I had high expectations for the first one and was very disappointed. Great cast but poor script. Hopefully, this one will be better.

I wonder if Mel Brooks can make a comeback? Arguably, his worst period came after Spaceballs. He had some pathetic movies- The worst was Robin Hood, Men in tights. That was a sad piece of comedic filmmaking.

[crickett003]

The original was hilarious. I haven't seen it in a hell of a long time.

I loved it!

*runs to netflix to add SPACEBALLS to list*

Robin Hood was great, all my friends can recite the whole movie from memory.

My vote for worst Mel Brooks film ever goes to Dracula:Dead and Loving it...Oh man was that bad.

....Are you mad? That was great! Hell, me and my 7th grade class sang that song (in the outfits) for the school talent show...a Catholic school talent show.

F'n great movie...

[hiccupleftovers]

Yay!! Oh Joy oh Rapture..I would love to see this. Mel Brooks is one of the greatest comic geniuses of our time that is sadly to say, very much under appreciated.

You're kidding right??? Robin Hood is an awesome movie..very funny.

[hiccupleftovers]

The one Mel Brooks movie that I would like to see truly done is The History of the World Part 2. The first one is hilarious.

I second that.

Third'd. That movie was great.

[Grave_Addiction]

Hey nahny nahny and a ho ho ho!

[hiccupleftovers]

You're just being too pessimistic. I'm sure that if someone said that the Olsen twins would be in it, you would say that it is the greatest thing ever. :wink:

[darekIsAwesome]

Thought Robin Hood was great

[darekIsAwesome]

But none of them compare to the real classic. Monty Python and the Holy Grail..

[Xevious]

Damn....I didn't know there was soo much love for "Robin Hood- Men in Tights". I did not laugh at all when watching that movie. Maybe it was the mood I was in...

But still, I stand by what I said. I didnt not see the Dracula movie though. I have heard that movie stinks.

I'll give you that one, Dracula wasn't that great.

[KingDox]

I hope the movie doesn't turn out to be another blues Brothers 2000.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I don't know what to think yet.

[Death2Sanity]

What??? Robin Hood: Men in Tights AND Dracula: Dead and Loving It were great.

Good stuff.

Can't wait for this, either.

[Alpha2]

Well if anything aside from John Candy I'm pretty sure they can get the rest of the cast back together, not like they're doin' anything. :D

[SneakyPenguin]

This will rock, but my favorites are still The Producers and Blazing Saddles.

[Gothic Walrus]

We'll have to see how this one shapes out. Mel could have some fun with the prequels, but the movie will have to be genuinely funny to succeed. That can be hard to achieve at times...

If he wanted to go off on a tangent, some of the sci-fi clunkers from recent years might be easy targets. "Battlefield Earth" or "Lost in Space," anyone?

Here's hoping that the movie actually comes together...and that it'll be good when it does.

[Alpha2]

I wonder if the dicision to do this wasnt based on his currently doing a remake of The Producers... 2 movies for the price of one (since he's getting a tax break for filming The Producers in New York)

[hiccupleftovers]

This will rock, but my favorites are still The Producers and Blazing Saddles.

I genuinely like most of his work. Considering he made Blazingf Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Robin Hood, The history of the world part one, etc.

[Eclipse]

Wow..ANd if I now think about it, The letters of the word Sith can be rearranged for interesting new combinationrs! :wink:

This? Isth? Hsit?

[Xevious]

shit

[daikaiju]

I haven't heard any love for High Anxiety...one of my personal Mel Brooks faves...


In any event...I would hope it wouldn't be tamed down...I would think that some of Mel's humor would be tough to pitch to a studio in these "politically correct" times - can you imagine a movie like Blazing Saddles coming out these days?

[Gothic Walrus]

shit

Sarcasm is lost on you, isn't it?

[crazytalkx]

This is great shaq-fuing news. Too bad it will definitely not be as good as the original.

[WildWop]

I hope he doesn't reuse any of the characters from the original. The loss of Candy would be bad enough, but then we'd have to deal with middle-aged Rick Moranis and Bill Pullman... it'd be like making Indiana Jones 4... oh wait, they're doing that too... shit...

[coolcps]

i want history of the world part 2, they show it at the end of 1 with Jews in Space, but they never made it as far as i know.

[DigitalSpace]

I still haven't seen Spaceballs. I want to, though.

I watched Robin Hood: Men In Tights years ago and loved it. For some reason, I bought it on VHS about a year ago and haven't watched that copy yet.

I don't know... My gut instinct tells me that this will be a prequel, or at least a mockery of the idea of a prequel. Maybe Mel should just edit a bunch of bad CG into the original, and call it a new movie. :)

Man you need to see Spaceballs, very cool. I just got the DVD as a matter of fact. Robin Hood MIT is awesome too.

[Grave_Addiction]

I bet she gives great helmet.

That is one that I never ever got as a child. Only until I was about 16 did I realize how great that line was.
