My, What a Large Helmet You Have

I was watching Spaceballs, a classic film, and realized a few things:

This was the last funny movie Mel Brooks made.
This was the last time Joan Rivers was funny. At all.
This was Rick Moranis's funniest role ever.
Daphne Zuniga was (is) hot.

Just thought I would share...

Rick was funny in Spaceballs, true, but nothing eclipses his role in Strange Brew.
Nothing.
Do you hear me?
Don't make me destroy you for such heresy.

Dude, Nathan has an excellent point (threats aside). In all honesty, Canada has been going downhill ever since.

We're going to have to go right to Ludicrous Speed!

God, for the days that Mel Brooks made funny movies.

I think I need to rent Blazing Saddles again soon.

For more Friday fun, you can go here for more Spaceballs humor (as well as a HUGE blast-from-the-past [TM] humor for Internet old-guys like ZombyBoy and me).

Now, what are the odds of Spaceballs being mentioned in the Grudge Match? And, hell, I didn't even know the Match was still running.

I'm feeling familiar stirrings inside...could it be? Could I have found the last vestiges of...The Rage [TM]? I must go vote right now...

And I note that Han Solo is winning. As well he should.

I had to vote for Bender. He's right up there with Stewie and Mojo Jojo on the list of bext cartoon characters of all time.

All of this makes me wonder if I still have my Dead Tree [TM] version of the Grudge Match. That would be Mentos-level Cool [TM]!
