    In addition to the merchandise thing Lucas also told Brooks he couldn't dress Lonestar like Han Solo. Brilliantly, Brooks dressed him like Indiana Jones instead.

      Title: The Culinary Elegance of Black Truffle Salt
      Introduction:
      In the realm of gastronomy, few ingredients command as much reverence and fascination as black truffle salt. A marriage of two culinary treasures - the earthy, intoxicating aroma of black truffles and the pure essence of salt - this exquisite seasoning tantalizes the senses and elevates dishes to extraordinary heights. In this essay, we explore the origins, characteristics, culinary applications, and cultural significance of black truffle salt, delving into its allure and enduring appeal.
      Origins and Characteristics:
      Black truffles, prized for centuries for their elusive nature and unparalleled flavor, hail from regions like France, Italy, and Spain, where they thrive in symbiotic harmony with certain tree species. Tuber melanosporum, the species commonly associated with black truffles, imparts a unique blend of earthiness, musk, and umami that captivates the palate. When finely ground and infused with high-quality sea salt, the resulting black truffle salt exudes a seductive aroma and robust flavor profile that is both decadent and nuanced.
      Culinary Applications:
      The versatility of black truffle salt knows no bounds, offering a passport to culinary creativity and indulgence. Its mere presence can transform the mundane into the extraordinary, turning everyday dishes into gourmet masterpieces. A mere pinch of black truffle salt can elevate simple fare such as scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, or creamy risotto to sublime heights, infusing each bite with an irresistible depth of flavor. Furthermore, its affinity for rich, savory dishes makes it a prized companion for pasta, meats, seafood, and even popcorn, adding a luxurious touch to any culinary creation.
      Cultural Significance:
      Beyond its culinary prowess, black truffle salt carries with it a sense of prestige and cultural significance deeply rooted in tradition. Truffle hunting, an age-old practice passed down through generations in regions like Provence and Piedmont, embodies a timeless connection to the land and a reverence for nature's bounty. The culinary celebrations that ensue upon unearthing these prized fungi serve as a testament to the integral role truffles play in local culture and tradition. Moreover, black truffle salt has become synonymous with luxury and sophistication, gracing the tables of fine dining establishments and gourmet kitchens worldwide, where it symbolizes indulgence and refinement.
      Conclusion:
      In conclusion, black truffle salt stands as a shining example of culinary elegance and innovation, capturing the essence of truffles in a versatile and accessible form. Its origins steeped in tradition, its characteristics defined by complexity, and its culinary applications limited only by imagination. As we continue to savor its seductive flavors and embrace its cultural significance, we pay homage to the timeless allure of this culinary treasure. Indeed, black truffle salt transcends mere seasoning, embodying a legacy of taste, tradition, and culinary excellence that continues to inspire and delight epicureans around the globe.

    Fun Fact: The scene with John Hurt at the diner who had the Alien inside of him was actually the same guy from "Alien" (1979). It really makes his line hilarious. "Oh no, not again!"
    Also, George Lucas loved this movie and wrote Mel Brooks a letter after its premiere, saying he thought he was going to bust something from laughing so hard. George Lucas also told Mel Brooks had he not chosen to parody "Star Wars", this movie would have succeeded as a great adventure movie. Mel Brooks said he was extremely flattered by George Lucas's compliments and support.

    From the Spaceballs documentary, Mel said he sent the screenplay to George Lucas to get his OK to make Spaceballs. George told Mel OK but told him he couldn't sell Spaceballs merchandise to compete with his own stuff. That's why you see the Spaceball sheets, action figures, toilet paper, shaving cream and everything he had in the store in the movie. Another thing you may not have noticed was when the group gets into Yogurt's lair, they kind of resemble the Scarecrow, Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Lion in the shot. You didn't mention the "Druish Jokes" either.

    If you haven't seen Mel Brooks' The Producers, there are 2 versions, the original from 1968 and the 2005 remake, which is really an adaptation of the Broadway musical. They're both worth your time. What makes this movie better than it would have been is that George Lucas found out Brooks was making a Star Wars satire, so he gave Mel full access to Lucasfilms, so he had the best special effects technology available for 1987.

    Funny thing about Rick Moranis and John Candy. In Ghostbusters, the role of Louis was supposed to go to John Candy but he turned it down. Then John immediately recommended Rick for the role. John also made a cameo in the Ghostbusters music video so in a way he was a part of the movie. And then these two eventually did this movie together. That's the fate of Hollywood. Nothing will top the funny men of the 80's who brought us so much laughter and joy.

    The reason Spaceball One looks so impressively detailed in the opening is because Industrial Light & Magic did all of the visual effects. The same people who did Star Wars. Also, fun fact, part of the price for getting ILM to do the effects is that Lonestar could not look like Han Solo. So Brooks make him look like Indiana Jones instead.
    10:56 the "Assholes" bit is easily one of my favorite jokes in the whole movie.
    20:30 The dolls scene was totally adlibbed. They sat Rick Moranis down with a bunch of dolls dressed up as the characters and told him to have fun and started filming. The whole scene is great, but my favorite part is the look on Moranis' face just before the scene ends when he realizes that Col. Sanders just admitted to seeing him playing with his dolls.
    25:09 So, I worked it out a while back and, and Lonestar's dad would have only need to have two siblings who each had at least one child for the former roommate to have been Lonestar himself.

    Hey guys, thanks so much for watching and giving your reaction to this great gem. I love this movie and it's hilarious, one of my fav movies of all time. FYI Rick Moranis is considered short 5'5" and it's a shame that he doesn't act anymore, but yes he's a comedy legend. John Candy may he R.I.P. was a very funny comedian and I've heard he was very friendly in person. I think was one of Bill Pullman's first movies, btw I loved him in Ruthless People, another great comedy that everybody should see. Mel Brooks is a pretty good actor, but great director, love all his movies, he's got a great sense of humor. I'm a huge fan of parodies and I loved this movie, can't say anything bad about it.

I have watched his movies countless times, read about him, and I've seen every video I can find about John Candy.

    Just do the 'math' on that. Your "Father's Brother" is your uncle, his Nephew is likely you, or another male relative in your generation, so he's YOUR Cousin's former room-mate.

    I've watched this film dozens & dozens of times over the years, but it took you reading the introductory text for me to get the joke about "Chapter 11"!
    Chapter 11 is what you declare when you go bankrupt!
    I always saw the weird tiny tie with a medallion on each side as representing Darth Helmet's little d**k energy.
    I suppose the Spaceballs could be representative of being 'balls' only. That would make them all d**kless...
    Rick Moranis is 5'-6" tall. Yes, he's short. But then, Mel Brooks is 5'-5". And both portray "Big Men" in charge.
    Stock the ship's bridge with actors 6ft or taller, and it becomes comedy gold.

    So glad you got all those references, INCLUDING Michigan J. Frog (lots of folks don't know that one) and that was indeed John Hurt reprising his Alien role. Picking up on the Wizard of Oz was good too. And you managed to get most of the really great stuff into the video.
    Yeah, back in the days of the original trilogy, Star Wars merchandise was EVERYWHERE. Damn near on the toilet paper, which is why it was such a joke here. George Lucas gave Mel Brooks permission to parody all that stuff to such an extent on one condition - NO merchandise! He didn't want any competition/confusion in the marketplace (where he was making the really BIG money from Star Wars).
    The "We ain't found shit!" guy was Tim Russ, later to play Tuvok on Star Trek Voyager.

    Before Star Wars premiered in 1977, director George Lucas and 20th Century Fox approached Mego about producing Star Wars action figures, but the company passed because it didn’t expect the movie to do very well. Instead, the Kenner toy company acquired the license. In 1978, Kenner released the first Star Wars action figures: Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca and R2-D2.

I've seen him save ghosts on Casper, sweetly lose the girl on Sleepless in Seattle (TEAM WALTER), mesmerizingly lose his mind in Lost Highway, save the world on Independence Day and charmingly (and amusingly) fight his feelings for his soul mate on my favorite, While You were Sleeping while Sandra Bullock was such a convincing actress she made the audience excuse all her lies as we route for both of them. After all these years and movies, Spaceballs will always hold a special place in my heart. Such a quotable movie and timeless laughter.

    God I love Rick Moranis. He's a Canadian icon. He got his start with John Candy on the Canadian sketch comedy "SCTV". The show was incredibly special for me as some of it's seasons were shot in my hometown of Edmonton, Alberta. The alumni include a list of many recognizable names. SCTV aired a mockumentary in the style of "Spinal Tap", available online called "The Last Polka". It follows the life and times of the legendary Polka duo the Schmenge Brothers, and stars John Candy, Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, and Rick Moranis!!! It is a hidden gem that I urge any fan of comedy to watch.

    Hey guys!
    For me, this is an all-time classic, never gets old to me! And you're right, I think the whole cast got a great time when filming it!
    Some fun facts:
    - The dialogue between Colonel Sanderz and Dark Helmet when he suprises him playing with his dolls was improvised!
    - The reason for the merchandise running gag is the fact that George Lucas helped Mel Brooks with the SFX in the movie, but didn't want any Spaceballs merchandise to be released, especially action figures. Plus Star Wars was the brand that started the whole merchandise madness, so Mel made his joke over and over in the movie
    - You saw "Independence day"? Bill Pullman (Lone Star) is the U.S. president in that one, I was laughing out loud when I saw it the first time and recognised him!
    - The first scene in Yoghurt's place with the big statue is a hommage to "The Wizard Of Oz"
    - Noticed the Millenium Falcon in the parking lot of the space diner? 😉
    Another great Mel Brooks movie in my opinion is "Robin Hood: Men in tights", which got the same kind of humor and pop culture references. And as you guys like John Candy, check out "Blues Brothers". He got only a small role in there, but I think the vibe of the movie is right yours 😉
