You won’t be disappointed!
I just looked up all of the movies Sam is in. Surreal! Yeah, some are real stinkers, but the guy seems to have been working in movies, steadily, from the first minute he decided to be an actor.

Noticed that, too. The big sci-fi movie of 1999 was the first of the "new" Star Wars franchise. Ghostbusters was wayyyy before that.

FYI: Galaxy Quest is $6.99 on Amazon Prime and $9.99 on Apple TV.
Alan Rickman - God Bless, you went far too soon! While he was great in almost all his efforts, I particularly liked his lead in “Bottle Shock” but I am inclined to gentle, slice-of-life pictures that give the French a cocked snoot!

Yeah Ghostbusters came out in 1984 and GB 2 in 1989. You’re right he must have been thinking about SW 1 The Phantom Menace which did indeed drop in 1999.

Galaxy Quest is great fun movie. I get it 100% even though I have not seen more than 5 minutes Star Trek in my life

I’ve been meaning to order a copy of the DVD. No telling when Tim Allen will be permanently canceled & all his movies & shows go into the abyss.

One of my all-time favorite parodies without question!

Ha Hah Hah Hah!
One of my favorite lines is when they were talking about Gilligans island and the guy says:
“Those poor people!”

I'd consider Galaxy Quest more of a salute to Star Trek than a parody. Comicons were JUST starting to become popular, and the original show was already a part of pop culture.
Never Surrender: A Galaxy Quest Documentary is on Amazon.

The best parodies are also tributes. It’s the old Zappa line: to parody something well the first thing you have to do is learn to do it well. The core of Galaxy Quest (which is really Seven Samurai with a mistaken identity twist) would make a fine Trek movie.

Alien 3 seems to be the most hated of the Alien movies. But they came out with the, “Assembly Cut,” which I highly recommend.

Galaxy Quest is easily the best Star Trek movie ever made.
