Mummm!
Best line: Tony Shalhoub after he beams the Rock Monster into the evil lizard's group -"It's the little things..."
LOVED this movie.......must have seen it 5 times in the theater .Was Teb Rainn Wilson? Have seen the Thermian, Quellik, in several shows since then. Nice memories of a really fun send-up!
At first I thought “What is this stupid movie doing with all these top-tier actors?” But as it went on I was swept up in it. It had me in tears in a couple of places. I’d love to see a sequel.
Well, honey, mine... are real!
So are mine... Sigourney!
Gadzooks! I ain't getting in the middle of this... Right, Seven?
Game, set... match--
One of my very most favoritest movies. I’ve watched it a dozen times, at least. There are a lot of fascinating small touches in it that are very clever.
I only have one job to do on this ship....it is stupid, but I am going to do it.
Or when he first is transported to the ship. All the others are shaking and quivering in shock, and he’s just grinning like “Wow.”
And by the way, the cartoon girl's aren't real. They're drawn.
My FAVORITE lines are the back and forth between Tim Allen’s character, Jason Nesmith, and Alan Rickman’s character, Sir Alexander Dane.
My FAVORITE line in the movie is delivered by Rickman and is directed at Allen, IIRC, after Allen participates in a very physical fight scene which ends with the NOW “shirtless” Allen winded, but victorious.
Sir Alexander Dane: I see you’ve managed to get your shirt off.
One of my top 10 favorite movies E.V.E.R.
I also found this on the link you posted.
Galaxy Quest: Deleted Scenes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM_IQAhvnKQ
It starts off with familiar scenes from the movie and the shows the unseen cuts of those scenes.
Weird subtitles, but the cut scenes are interesting.
I adore this movie. One from a short list that can always cheer me up on a bad day. I like it so much, I own it, and yet I’ll still watch it on tv when I stumble across it. :)
He and “Guy” are my favorite characters. Growing up watching the original ST reruns over and over and over, I know that this movie mocks every nuance of Trekkiedom, including the conventions and fans.
Oh, I love it when they’re looking at those deceptively cute little miners, and Gwen goes “Awww...” and starts forward. Guy yanks her back and squawks, “Do you guys even WATCH THE SHOW??”
One of my favorites. I liked the "Rudimentary Lathe" line, too - a great send-up of Star Trek's "Arena" plot.
Yep, perfectly done. As was Guy's reaction to what transpired next.
Thanks for posting this, great movie, one of my favorites of all time. Mostly because I don’t like Shatner, and Tim Allen got it down perfect playing the obnoxious captain. Bought it and watch it repeatedly.
I only watched Galaxy Quest because I'm a big fan of Sigourney Weaver. Also I liked the other actors. And I like sci-fi movies, even the lame ones. And I like comedies. Are those enough reasons to watch it?
I was also surprised and amazed that Sigourney Weaver could do comedy after all those dramatic roles like Working Girl and Ghostbusters.
And I don't think that I've ever read a longer post on Free Republic. Thanks V.F.
