Originally thought this would be 30min… I’ll get better I swear. Ethan’s not beyond saving yet, drop the podcast and the problem’s solved. I do speak as a defunct fan, the guy sincerely needs to stop writing off criticism as hate. My delivery is harsh because I think he needs it to be. Enh idk, what do you think?

Spaceballs is a 1987 American space opera parody film co-written, produced and directed by Mel Brooks. It primarily parodies the original Star Wars trilogy, but also of other popular franchises such as Star Trek, Alien, The Wizard of Oz, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Planet of the Apes, and Transformers. The film stars Bill Pullman, John Candy, and Rick Moranis, with the supporting cast including Daphne Zuniga, Dick Van Patten, George Wyner, Lorene Yarnell, and the voice of Joan Rivers. In addition to Brooks playing a dual role, the film also features Brooks regulars Dom DeLuise and Rudy De Luca in cameo appearances.
