Ep. 205: Spaceballs

Zo ends up in yet another galaxy far, far, far, far away. By his reconning he's at the furthest galaxy, yet. Here there are no galaxy spanning empires, but their is a planet with a failing atmosphere and a massive military. Instead of putting forward policies that would save the environment of his world President Skroob would rather steal the atmosphere from a planet with a weaker military. The power disparity between his planet and the planet that he plans to attack is so great that it doesn't even matter that his troops are mostly Assholes. Fortunately, a spoiled princess, a loyal droid, a scruffy pilot and his half-man/half-dog best friend stand in the way to thwart the President and all the dastardly forces of planet Spaceballs. Episode Chapters00:05:02 Opening Credits for Spaceballs Starring Mel Brooks, John Candy, Rick Moranis, Bill Pullman, and Daphne Zuniga00:18:49 Favorite Parts of the 1987 film Spaceballs01:13:46 Trivia from the sci-fi action fantasy Spaceballs01:24:11 Critics' Thoughts on Mel Brook's Spaceballs Links to sound effects:epidemicsounds.commixkit.co Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: [email protected]: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.
