I LOVE this movie! Of course I’m a YUGE Star Trek fan.
I am NOT a fan of comedies. Mostly because they are not funny, they are stupid.
I wouldn’t call this a comedy, per se. It is hilarious in places not “stupid”.
Like Steyn said, it is NOT a Star Trek parody.
He was great in "A Fish Called Wanda," which is a hilarious movie.
It’s amazing how flexible the plot of Seven Samurai is.
Yes, by Grabthar’s Hammer, it is one of the funniest movies ever made. The obvious overdub of Sigourney Weaver saying “Forget that!” as she clearly mouths something else starting with “F” is always a little detail to watch for.
Yeah she had a great girl next door, but classy look to her in that movie.
Also, Kevin Kline was perfect in “A Fish Called Wanda”.
I have always found Kevin Kline to be a pompous, stagy actor. He is okay in “actorish” roles, but I do not find him very believable in most of his real-guy roles. I think he would have been very hammy in Galaxy Quest. While Tim Allen is no great actor, and plays everything pretty much the same, I think he was a better choice for the captain.
My weakness has always been redheads but her as a blonde...Yowza!
Showed this classic to our granddaughter several weeks ago, she LOVED IT!
Fantastic film:
“NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER SURRENDER!”
“By Grabthar’s hammer you shall be avenged!”
A fave of our, too! When it came out my husband and I saw it, I took my son, then I took my son and a friend and then I took my son and several friends. I saw it 4 times at the theater and we have watched it several times since then.......very funny!
NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER!
I would also point out A Fish Called Wanda, where he was terrific. Scary, insane; but, terrific.
A,favorite of ours.
That was my first thought as well when I read the article - I was...”wait...what...”
Maybe it was a sequel he meant or something....
Guy Fleegman?
Fred Kwan should have gotten more screen time.
The sister of my best friend in High School looked just like the actress in the movie.
Yeah, the best are the actors you’re not sure if its them in other roles and have to check out the credits.
Which “Tangled?”
Sigourney Weaver was in both films (GQ and GB) that summer, actually. She looked good in both.
“Crewman number 6”
played by Sam Rockwell, who went on to a brilliant performance of Bob Fosse in the mini-series “Fosse/Verdon”...
Hubba hubba...
