About Spaceballs (1987)
When the nefarious Dark Helmet hatches a plan to snatch Princess Vespa and steal her planet's air, space-bum-for-hire Lone Starr and his clueless sidekick fly to the rescue. Along the way, they meet Yogurt, who puts Lone Starr wise to the power of "The Schwartz." Can he master it in time to save the day?
What We Discussed on the Podcast
This week the Dads are taking a look at Steve's pick, the 1987 comedy classic SPACEBALLS. It's one of Steve's top ten comedies of all time... but Nic has never seen it!
Come along as Nic and Steve take a look at this send-up of numerous sci-fi franchises, including Star Wars, Alien, Star Trek, and Planet of the Apes. Will it hold up? How does it look with a fresh set of eyes in 2025?
All those answers (plus how long it takes Spaceball One to fly past the camera in the film's opening sequence) in this episode of 2 Dads 1 Movie!
