Will Spaceballs 2 be Based or Cringe?

As much respect as I will have for Brooks if (if) he can pull off one more nigger zinger and witty jabs at Star Wars' carcass, it's rare for lightning to strike twice, especially now that Jews are Jewier than every before (especially with each other). He'll need to advance his own Jew-jitsu after some decades-long stinkers.

Also Spaceballs is in no position to talk shit as a franchise about the craptacular corporate sequel that sucked hard even with the surviving cast returning

Part of the reason the sequel trilogy sucked was how they treated the original cast in their roles. At no point did Luke, Han Solo, Leia, and the rest reunite in any one scene. Han Solo gets killed off early on, TLJ was written as Leia as some girlboss who can Force-levitate back to a ship; it was clear Admiral Tumblrhair was written because Carrie Fisher was physically unable to do the stuff they wanted, and Luke just mopes and drinks blue milk before Force-levitating off the side of a cliff.

Had they had competent writers who didn't have a visceral hatred of Star Wars and its fans it could've been great.

I just hope this nigga lives because I don't want the occasion of the release to be ruined by all the usual fake dreary sadbrain "in memoriam" type shit.

Or worse they will computer generate himself mid way through production. Remember what happened to Mel Blanc? I hope this mf lives and gets to see his own movie before passing on the sunset.

The guy that attacked him failed as hard as the guy that tried to assassinate a guy that was just voted in as South Korea's next President.

Thread 'South Korea's opposition Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung stabbed'



SEOUL, Jan 2 (Reuters) - South Korea's opposition Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung was stabbed in the neck during a visit to the southern port city of Busan on Tuesday, the Yonhap news agency reported.

Lee was attacked by an unidentified man while touring the site of a proposed airport, Yonhap said.

The assailant appeared to be a man in his 50s or 60s. He approached Lee asking for an autograph, then suddenly lunged...

Really? I must have missed that :roll:

60s nostalgia was a huge part of the character and you are being disingenuous if you are pretending otherwise. I don't know how you would even parody modern Bond when the Craig ones are so joyless.

Pull a Kingsman. Cash off one good movie and never learn why people liked it.

Brooks did The Producers in 2005, which I remember as being pretty shit (though I have no idea if it's a good adaptation of the musical or whatever). Before that was Dracula: Dead and Loving It (which I enjoy, but recognize that it's pretty terrible). So you'd have to go to 1994 for Men in Tights to find something pretty inarguably good (and even that was very much of its time, what with the Farvegnugen, etc jokes).

Since then his two big projects have been that utter shit History of the World Part II series (tbf, I bailed after 5 terrible DEI minutes, so who knows), and Paws of Fury (yeah, I never heard of it either).

I don't think Brooks has the wherewithal to fight off the unfunny writers or the 'modern audience' adjustments, he's just happy to be involved with a project thats big and his again.

The director's previous "big" movies are Strays (some Will Ferrell talking dog movie), and a Kristen Wiig movie (Barb and Star go to Vista del Mar) that I assume was meant to be used in psychological torture or experiments.

Lone Star is being replaced by his nepo baby son who makes Kellen Lutz look like Marlon Brando. Daphne Zuniga is being replaced by a nigger.

tldr - this is going to be utter shit, it's not even a gamble.

Wonder if they'll have the balls to have it center on the old as shit original cast and that be part of the gag as all the usual parts of the movie are filled with old people. Or if like every other movie they'll bring in young replacements who will take over the plot.

The big question is, will those old people gracefully pass their roles off to the young replacements? Or will the old people all get killed off, maybe even brutally, so that the young characters can replace them forcefully, as what happens in today's media?

I hate Matthew Broderick, so the musical never did anything for me. The original Producers is a classic, and easily Mel's best movie.

Hot take: Mel's filmography is trash. The original Space Balls sucks. When it comes to making parody films, the Zucker brothers lapped him with Airplane and The Naked Gun.

You don't remember how Silent Movie and High Anxiety made you laugh and laugh?

(I don't either)
 
History of the World Part II was such dogshit, I have little hope that this is going to be any better.
