      Enrico Colantoni (Mathesar) invented the way the Thermians speak and move when he auditioned for the movie. Beside winning him the role, it made him the standard that all actors playing Thermians in the movie had to learn from and emulate. He is largely responsible for making the Thermians so funny yet so heartfelt and lovable too.

    Famously, Patrick Stewart refused to watch Galaxy Quest but was convinced to go see the movie by Jonathan Frakes after he had seen it and loved it. It would be really easy to assume that with its premise the movie is mean-spirited but it just oozes so much heart. I can't imagine anyone not being won over by Galaxy Quest

      Interview quote form Jonathan Frakes. "I was at the CineramaDome in LA, and I saw it on a Saturday morning, or Saturday matinee. As I got out of the movie the first thing I did was call Patrick, who was in Toronto, I think, shooting X-Men. I said, “Dude, I just saw a movie that is about us and captures us like they’ve been reading our mail.” Patrick saw it that night. Then went again on the Sunday. And it was, I mean, some of the stuff in it is so on the nose and so accurate, and perfect, and funny. And Rickman. Rickman with the peeling makeup. Stuff that LeVar’s character does. I mean, it’s a favorite. I don’t know why that sequels never been made. I gather it’s encumbered with a lot of people who need money before they even shot, but this seems rife for a remake."

    Alan Rickman's character's obvious distain for his signature line early in the movie is portrayed as a such a soul crushing experience, is the perfect set up for when he finally says it with full purpose and meaning, where it resonates with emotional impact. I watched this movie multiple times, and I still get a little teary eyed at that scene.

    Tony Shalhoub's character was originally meant to be stoned (you can see a puff of smoke when he teleports in) hence his apparent indifference to the situation they find themselves in but the shot of him smoking a joint was cut. IMO It's funnier that he just accepts everything at face value and runs with it.

    So glad you liked it, Verowak! This film is one of the best sci-fi comedies of all time! The _Star Trek_ fandom and even some of the original actors have praised it, and a poll of hard-core fans famously rated it as the 7th best Star Trek movie of all time... ahead of six *actual* Trek movies! There are so many fantastic performances, notably Allan Rickman as an accomplished Shakespearean actor dragged into playing a science fiction character... Patrick Stewart, anyone? 😉 But my personal favorite is Sigourney Weaver, Ellen Ripley herself, one of the most badass characters in the history of science fiction, playing a role that couldn't be more her opposite! 🤣

    As you love Alan Rickman and Sigourney Weaver there is another movie they made together - "Snowcake" - practically the two of them carry the whole movie. Again they are playing characters that are completely different to what they are usually known for and again its a movie that is criminally underrated (in my opinion). "Snowcake" is a fantastic gentle, deeply emotional while still surprisingly funny movie. The main role was written for Alan Rickman and it was him who suggested Sigourney for the her role and even brought her on board, which shows how good he was in his craft as I would never ever could imagine her in such an role but she was fantastic. I don't think anyone had made a reaction to this movie, but even if you don't consider it for a reaction I could only recommend it to watch at least for yourself.
    Galaxy Quest is a underrated gem and so is Snowcake. Sadly we lost Alan Rickman way too soon , he was an hell of an actor in anything he did.

    7 of 9 was introduced like this, true - and sadly Jeri Ryan had a really hard time on set. But thanks to her acting and some quality writing, the character became so much more than that. Actually, one might complain that at some point, Voyager pretty much became mostly "The Doctor and Seven Show", in that they devoted so much time to these characters (which, admittedly had the most interesting premises) that the development of other characters suffered. Still - great character, great actress.

    Alan Rickman is also in the View Askewniverse (specifically Dogma), Quigley Down Under, Bob Roberts, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (not nearly as good as the BBC series, but a great cast [including Sam Rockwell])...for more Sam Rockwell see Jojo Rabbit, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, Moon, Matchstick Men, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, the MCU (Iron Man 2 and All Hail the King specifically)...for more Sigourney Weaver see the Alien movies (I'd stop after the first two), Cabin in the Woods, Gorillas in the Mist, Death and the Maiden, Avatar, Wall-E, Finding Dory, Working Girl, the Ghostbusters movies (continue past the first two at your own risk), Be Kind Rewind, Dave, the MCU again (specifically Defenders this time)...

    Tim Allen has been in a few other movies, including The Santa Clause trilogy, Toy Story, and Big Trouble (2002). That last wasn't liked by critics, but I enjoyed it.
    The movie isn't a love letter to Star Trek the show, but rather a love letter to fandom. And they really do have "walk through" simulations of various Enterprises.
    One bit you seemed to have missed; while being directed by Brandon, they have to crawl through some ducts. At this point Weaver mutters "ducts; _why_ is it always ducts?"
    Fun Fact: in the movie, the new Galaxy Quest premiered 18 years after the end of the first series. By coincidence (or not) 18 years is also the time between the end of the original Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation.
    P.S. Star Trek has always been massively sexist when it came to women's wardrobe, thanks for Roddenberry. The original series had the miniskirt uniforms, not to mention the "barely there" designs by Bill Thiess for many guest stars. Even The Next Generation featured the short skirt uniforms for a time. Star Trek: Voyager with Seven of Nine was the low point; Google images of Seven of Nine and you'll see what I mean. They poured her into cat suits that left nothing to the imagination.
    The story goes that Patrick Stewart especially refused to watch the movie until several fellow cast members urged him to give it a try. He loved it.

    Other excellent work by Sam Rockwell is in JoJo Rabbit (2019) where plays a side character, but a great role in a great film, and Moon (2009), where he is most definitely the lead.

      Upvote both recommendations. JoJo Rabbit is an amazing unique must-watch film, full of stellar performances, and is very popular with TH-cam reactors. Moon is a really solid film as well, though not as well known, and not often reacted to. I expect you'd garner a lot more views with JoJo

    • @gavinmatthewlyall

    Mathesar kinda reminded me of a cross between Andy Kauffman and Robin Williams. This is one of my favorite films of all time. It is one of the few that I go back to a few times per year. I am glad that "The Twist" with the convention attendees caught you by surprise. Original viewers didn't really have that luxury - at least not as much. The trailers pretty much spelled out what the movie was going to be about, so we were expecting the twist. We just didn't know when it would happen.
    An interesting thing about the intro, is that when it was shown in theaters, the curtains are drawn partially closed, to match the opening aspect ratio. When the opening clip ends, then the curtains were drawn open, as we are introduced to the convention setting. It kinda provides a nice & dramatic opening to the movie. I think it was a nice touch. Not only would it have looked strange, if the movie opened with black bars on the ends, it makes it less obvious that something is different, until the actual movie starts, and you realize that you've been watching the movie in a different aspect ratio.
    The movie was presented as a comedy, but I also think it has some weighty moments to it as well. Even though there are laughs to be had, I think it also makes a good light-hearted sci-fi drama. It stands with the best sci-fi offerings that don't have "Star" in their name.

    Tony Shalhoub was playing Fred Kwan (Tech Sergeant Chen) as a stoner. He has the munchies throughout, and he takes (almost) everything in stride. This also explains his "group hug" management style in engineering.
    Also, note that Fred is a caucasian portraying an Asian. This was a choice he made long ago when he selected "Fred Kwan" as his stage name. Every once in a while you'll see him squint, in an unsuccessful attempt to depict epicanthic folds.
    This is the kind of thing that actually happens in Hollywood - think of David Carradine as Kwai Chang Caine in _"Kung Fu."_
