When Mel Brooks wanted to make that movie, he asked for George Lucas’ blessing. Half because of professional curtesy, half because of legal concerns. Lucas loved the idea and gave Brooks access to his Special Effects company (explaining the high production quality, for the time). The only restrictions was that they couldn’t sell any merchandise, and Lone Star couldn’t look like Han Solo. Because Brooks is Brooks, he made the merchandising joke and he dressed Lone Star like Indiana Jones.

This movie and all Brooks movies have tons of movie parodies, meme style jokes, and one-off jokes with sometimes long setups, such as naming the colonel Sanders so they could say, “What’s a matter, Colonel, chicken?” to which he practically crows when flustered, at one small moment in the movie. I never even noticed the Kafka joke until I had to read the book Metamorphosis in school. “Prepare for metamorphosis. Ready, Kafka?” The joke was only two seconds long. There are tons of these micro-jokes and Brooks is one of the only directors I know that does them in movies. It certainly gives his movies a style.

45:00 The movie generally is a STAR WARS (1977) parody, or, more accurately, a parody of the first three STAR WARS movies made in 1977, 1980, and 1983 -- Episodes IV, V, and VI. Blowing up the ship with a countdown and explosion is a STAR TREK II - WRATH OF KHAN (1982) movie trope. Michael Winslow of POLICE ACADEMY (1980) did his sound effects gags. They punched up the desert scene with music from LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1962). The alien hatching from the man's chest is an ALIENS (1980) reference (and they hired the same actor!) The hatched alien singing and dancing to Ragtime Gal is a 1950s LOONEY TUNES reference. The little Jawa-like critters (the Dinks) that help Lone Starr and our heroes, sing THE COLONEL BOGEY MARCH from the movie BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI (1957). When the heroes appear in the temple, there is a great effigy of Yogurt, and he is behind it, and the heroes resemble the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, Dorothy, and the Scarecrow from THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939). The TEMPLE OF DOOM is an INDIANA JONES reference. Many of the silly movie antics (turning off the film by mistake, bumping into the camera, and so forth) are gags reminiscent of the movie THE KENTUCKY FRIED MOVIE (1977). The transformation of the ship into a maid with a vacuum cleaner is a TRANSFORMERS (1982) reference. The Liberty Head/Torch on the beach with the apes on horseback is a PLANET OF THE APES (1968) reference.

Movies these actors were also in that you should see: Independence Day Police Academy movies (the black guy) Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Uncle Buck Planes, Trains, and Automobiles 41:58 is a reference to the original 1968, "Planet of the Apes"

In the scene of the little people walking in the desert is a reference to snow white and the 7 dwarfs

15:40 fun fact about this scene: if you look at the time stamp of the movie, it is exactly 5 minutes until you see them again in the movie after this scene, so they literally took a 5 minute break

I do admit, out of all the review channels I've seen, you guys are the best!! Love your reactions for Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles. You guys should check out another Mel Brooks classic, Robin Hood Men in Tights. I think you'll enjoy it. Great job, keep it up!

Just a note on two of the actors. Tim Russ, most famous for place Tuvok in Star Trek Voyager, has admitted there have been times he regretted his small role as the Spaceball "combing the desert" with an afro comb, mostly because he had grown weary of people coming up to him and telling him, "they ain't found sh*t!" Second, though he has been retired for years, I'll always remember Rick Moranis for his part in one of the greatest hidden jokes in cinema history. They joke? In Ghostbusters, Moranis' character, Louis Tully, is destined to become Vince Clortho, the Keymaster of Gozer. Not that you'd know if from looking at him, particularly given the Keymaster was forever locking himself out of his own apartment.

And then watch ‘Galaxy Quest’ after. Don’t start with Star Trek II. Start with the original movie. It may not be the best Trek movie, but it’s not bad.

all the even numbered movies are best and most of the others are (imho) quite crappy, but if you don't know almost anything about that franchise, you need to start with the first anyway: "The Movie". btw: no big fan of the newest remakes with alternate timelines to the entire historic franchise.

Another thing you guys missed from the Alien chest burster scene... back in the "Old Days" Warner Brothers had this old frog on a counter joke where when a spot light was shined at him he would do that song and dance... it was "Michigan J. Frog"... Look it up, it was an awesome spoof of classic Warner Brothers Looney Tunes...

This is such a classic - it's funny on its' own, but if you've seen Star Wars, Alien, Star Trek, Blazing Saddles, and whatnot then it's next level hilarious. Mel Brooks showed it to George Lucas and he thought it was hilarious, what a good sport.

When the head and arm crashed on the beach and looked like the statue of liberty, and then the apes on horseback showed up, that's an homage to the movie "Planet of the Apes." You'll have to put that on you future viewing list.
