    Pretty sure the film will be horrible but that they pulled off geting Moranis back is simply amazing.

      I was sure the new Naked Gun would be terrible but I laughed my ass off. I’ll give Spaceballs a chance.

        I feel like Mel fucking Brooks may have less energy available at this point in his career to push his artistic vision through.

        I feel like this movie is the cinematic equivalent of 90-year-old congresspeople giving us “greatest hits of ideas that played well decades ago”.

        Go. Retire. You had a great career for a long time. Now find a smaller audience.

          Brooks had very little to do with this sequel aside from reprising his role as Yogurt. He neither wrote nor directed.

      Recent successes in revival movies and comedies, like The Naked Gun, make me hopeful.

      It can be done, you just have to want to do the work.
