Hell Spawn · Apr 28, 2001, 07:28 AM

How many other spoofs on sci fi movies are there?
And if here are gimme some examples...

zombie84 · Apr 28, 2001, 09:14 AM

more than you'd think actually.

Bayleaf48 · Dec 6, 2001, 03:53 PM

Plenty, but how many of them have become as well known & popular as 'Spaceballs'? & the answer would probably be not that many at all, infact I can't think of any myself!

Innerspace (spoof of Fantasic Voyage) and Galaxy Quest (spoof on Star Trek but more specificaly the Trek fan culture) come to mind.

There's a movie I bid on at eBay called Mutant on the Bounty. No idea what it's about, but I can't resist a dirt-cheap 2md hand scifi movie, especially one that's (supposed to be) a comedy.

I'll let you know if it was worth my bringing it up.

There was also a short film called Hardware Wars, that was actually pretty funny. It was only about 15 min. long.

there are plenty of other sci fi spoofs, but Spaceballs is the one that most people think of [even more than Galaxy Quest] thats the only reason I feel that my friend {HD}black^mage & I can get our script for SPACEBALLS EPISODE II: THE SEARCH FOR MORE MONEY produced, even if we have the worst producer in the world. But wit the message in mind SPACEBALLS RULES!

Heck I'd take Spaceballs over Galaxy Quest any day.. It's hilarious the way they rip on Star Wars the whole time.. And still have enough originality to make a decent/fresh movie.

Just found this thread again, and thought I should mention ... I didn't win it

So I still don't know if it was worth watching or not ...

There was that troopers thing. It was a 10 minute parody of cops featuring storm troopers. I remember it was extremly funny. It explained how the farm was destroyed in Episode 4.

"oww that'll leave a mark"

SF_not_Sci-Fi · Jan 11, 2003, 03:58 PM

you can also try www.newgrounds.com for flash SF parodies. They have all sorts of flash movies and games there...

Splendiferous · May 18, 2003, 08:47 AM

Right. I found Mutant on the Bounty at a carboot sale and instantly bought it, thinking of this thread. I've watched half of it, but I can't really get around to watching the other half. It's not funny. It's not boring, it's just ... not funny.

I'll tell you what is funny though - a short called Trooper Clerks. basically, it's a 'trailer' for a 'movie' of Clerks set on the Deathstar - there's also a Flash/Shockwave/whatever-it's-called cartoon, very funny if you like Star Wars and Kevin Smith movies ...
