Spaceballs! An oldie but still funny as hell!…

September 28, 2007

If you havn’t seen Spaceballs, you need to go out right now and rent it, better yet, buy this movie!! This has got to be one of the funniest parody’s ever created. This is definitely a classic that everyone should see at least once.

With a classic cast including: John Candy, Rick Moranis and Mel Brooks, the budget for Spaceballs was $22,700,000 (estimated). The film grossed $38,119,483 during its run in the United States, taking in $6,600,000 on its opening weekend.

Planet Spaceball, led by President Skroob (Mel Brooks), has foolishly wasted all of its air and, desperate to find more, aims at extorting the peaceful Planet Druidia into giving them all of its air. They devise a plan to kidnap the Druish Princess Vespa, who is about to marry the narcoleptic Prince Valium. Resenting this marriage, Vespa runs off from the altar and escapes into space, where she is attacked by the Spaceballs (commanded by Dark Helmet, played by Rick Moranis).

Vespa’s father, King Roland, hires Captain Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his mawg Barf (John Candy) (who are desperate for money to pay back their debts to the Mafioso Pizza the Hutt), to rescue his daughter. They manage to rescue her and escape the Spaceballs, but have to crash-land on a desert planet. There, they meet the sage Yogurt, who introduces Lone Starr to the mysterious power called the The Schwartz. However, the Spaceballs trick Vespa into leaving her hiding place and capture her again. Lone Starr and Barf rescue the Princess, but not before the Spaceballs have succeeded in forcing King Roland to reveal the entry code to Druidia’s atmosphere (which is simply 1-2-3-4-5). Their spaceship Spaceball One transforms into Mega Maid with a vacuum cleaner, which starts to extract the air from Druidia. Lone Starr uses his Schwartz ring to reverse the procedure, defeats Dark Helmet in a duel using lightsaber-like weapons emanating from their Schwartz rings, and causes Mega Maid to self-destruct.

Lone Starr returns the Princess to Druidia and, since his creditor Pizza the Hutt “ate himself to death”, leaves without taking the agreed payment, a million spacebucks, instead taking a much smaller amount of only 248 spacebucks for food, gas and tolls. Shortly afterwards, on finding out that he is a “certified Prince”, he returns just in time to interrupt the marriage and marry Vespa himself.

Her are some of the best parts of the movie.

September 25, 2007

The official StarWarsblog.com has posted a link to WizardWorld.com who recently posted a blog entry on the top 20 things Star Wars fans have ot look forward to in the future.

Can anyone guess what number 1 is? The Force Unleashed game of course! That’s not a real big surprise. Coming in second place is The Force Unleashed toys! I have to admit that is pretty accurate because The Force Unleashed is the biggest Star Wars thing i’m looking forward to. My second would have to be the animated Clone Wars Series!

Star Wars marked its 30th anniversary this year, and to celebrate, there was a lot of wistful looking back going on. However, the future holds much more for the galaxy far, far away. With brand new video games, TV shows, comics, toys and even films, the franchise you grew up with is still going strong. ToyFare takes a look at what’s in store for Star Wars fans in the coming months, including the upcoming CGI cartoon, the Force Unleashed video game, Gentle Giant’s Animated Han Solo Maquette and 17 other Star Wars-related things we just can’t wait for!

Sneak Peek at “Family Guy: Blue Harvest”…

September 22, 2007

StarWars.com has posted some “Sneak peak” videos of the upcoming Family Guy Blue Harvest episode. Family Guy is probably one of my favorite shows nowadays and i’ve been dying to see this episode.. it looks like it’s going to be definitely worth the wait.


In the upcoming Star Wars tribute called “Family Guy: Blue Harvest,” fans will see their favorite characters played by the somewhat snarky cast of “Family Guy,” including Peter Griffin as Han Solo, Lois as Princess Leia, Stewie as Darth Vader, Brian as Chewbacca, Chris as Luke Skywalker. Cleveland as R2-D2, Quagmire as C-3PO, and Herbert as old Obi-Wan Kenobi, among others.
Dominic Polcino, the director of “Family Guy: Blue Harvest,” thinks fans will get a special kick out of seeing a pint-sized Sith Lord. “Stewie playing Darth Vader is a delight — it’s great to see all that evil boil down into one tiny little character,” Polcino laughs. “That’s going to be a lot of fun for fans to see.”

Below, we proudly present a promo clip and sneak peeks at the one-hour special “Family Guy: Blue Harvest” airing on FOX on Sept. 23, 2007.
