Who does not remember the "Who is on first?" routine? I have seen two great variations of this routine as well. A parody on Johnny Carson poking fun at Ronald Reagan and one with the Animaniacs character Slappy the Squirrel called "Who is on stage?"
"Everything that happens now is happening now." "What happened to then?" "We passed then." "When?" "Just now. We're at now-now." "Go back to then." "When?" "Now." "Now?" "Now!" "I can't." "Why?" "We missed it." I rest my case. Also, flawless performances by the two actors. Good job, guys! It would've been so easy to get this - and that dialog - way wrong.
For a long time i wondered why he asked "Who?" at the end, only these days i realised he was only asking "What?" , "Where?" and "When?" in rapid succession. :)
My buddies and I watched Spaceballs last week when were stoned as fuck, and when we got to this scene, not only were we laughing our asses off, we ended with one word "Deeeeeeeeep"
What the hell am I looking at? When does this happen in the movie? Now. You're looking at now, sir. Everything that happens now, is happening now. What happened to then? We passed then. When? Just now. We're at now now. Go back to then. When? Now. Now? Now. I can't. Why? We missed it. When? Just now. When will then be now? Soon. How soon?
I will explain why we cannot go back in time, Read this carefully. If I build a time machine in 7 days, we both get in it and we set it to go back 8 days, We can't because we did not make the machine yet. Get it?

Yeah, directed by Mr.Douchebag how only cares about making money by making the movie sound epic, but, when you see it, IT SUCKS. *Sigh* Too bad Brooks hasn't made a movie in years... :'(
I just love how the conversation mentally broke Dark Helmet to the point he doesn’t know what they are talking about at the end
Not only did they forth wall break. They broke the main villain. That means his sanity correlates to the Fourth wall.
I had to read this several times to appreciate the wisdom... excellent!
Rick Moranis is PHENOMENAL in this movie! The way he changes his voice with the face mask down or not is hysterical! Mel Brooks is a comedy god!
saw this around age 4 in 92' before I ever heard of Star Wars, this WAS literally my Star Wars lolol
This kind of gag has been an old favorite....Anyone remember "Who's on First?" by Abbott & Costello? :)
Who does not remember the "Who is on first?" routine? I have seen two great variations of this routine as well. A parody on Johnny Carson poking fun at Ronald Reagan and one with the Animaniacs character Slappy the Squirrel called "Who is on stage?"
sally squirrel did something similar "Who is the band playing on stage." th-cam.com/video/Mdqv5xIsFLM/w-d-xo.html
this scene never gets old, thanks for uploading it
Never gets old! A true classic!
Mel Brooks. Blazing Saddles, Spaceballs, Young Frankenstein and more. amazing comedy.
What a genius scene. Mel Brooks loves tearing down that fourth wall doesn't he?
One of my favorite bits of Mel Brooks. I actually turned this bit into a Screen saver loop complete with sound. Best screen saver ever!
I watch this last night had the time of my life, would love to see a sequel. Spaceballs 2 : The Schwartz Awakens lol
Even better: Spaceballs 2: The Schwartz Rolls Over On Its Side and Hits The Snooze Button
MisterE1976 According to the everlasting know-it-all, Yoghurt, the sequel was to be called 'Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money'.
@@mickesmanymovies Today, of course, they would need to produce "Spaceballs 3: The Search For Spaceballs 2".
This scene fucked with my head SO bad as a kid.
This movie was soo much better than The force Awakens. Same plot though.
Dark Helmet is much more intimidating than Kylo Ren.
Moichendising!
well they both copied the original Star Wars
"Everything that happens now is happening now."
"What happened to then?"
"We passed then."
"When?"
"Just now. We're at now-now."
"Go back to then."
"When?"
"Now."
"Now?"
"Now!"
"I can't."
"Why?"
"We missed it."
I rest my case.
Also, flawless performances by the two actors. Good job, guys! It would've been so easy to get this - and that dialog - way wrong.
Soon
My reaction when I fast forward through commercials on a DVR and catch up to the live broadcast.
That classic. Man spaceball is the best.
This is abbot and costello level humor. Pure gold i say
One Of The Funniest Scene In The Movie.. Plus An Awesome Ringtone.. For Your Cell Phone.. {When Will Then Be Now..?}

How much of this scene and what lines would be good for a ringtone
Mel Brooks said it best at the AFI Awards... "You finally got it right." ... Comedy genius, inspiration, and most of all, pioneer.
A radio station in NYC used to use some of this dialogue as the intro to The Smiths song ‘How Soon Is Now’ 😂
This is the kind of conversation most people have with their subconscious when watching TENET for the very first time.
PREPARE TO FAST FORWARD!

Dark Helmet: WHO???????
LOL!
one my absolutely favorite dialogs in this movie , mad !!
Pretty much how I felt watching Westworld.
“What the hell am I looking at? When does this happen in the movie??”
Now. You're looking at Now, sir. Everything that happens now is happening Now.

The best way to learn the present, the present continuous the past perfect and the past perfect continuous is to watch that scene.
For a long time i wondered why he asked "Who?" at the end, only these days i realised he was only asking "What?" , "Where?" and "When?" in rapid succession. :)
One of the most genius parts of film ever XD
The best part is they probably did this gag just by projecting what the camera was recording onto the screen or something.
This is a funny Fourth wall break!
The whole damn movie is the funniest part. It's just nonstop comedy.
Love it! It is so true.
I'm still waiting for Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money.
Get in line.
We're past that. Space balls 3: the search for space balls 2.
They are looking on the screen
Greatest 4th wall break in history.
funniest moment in cinema history XD
Such lust for revenge.
*I'M NUCLEAR*
*I'M WIIIIIILLDDDDD*
Sure-fire way to confuse the utter bejeezus out of anybody.
the fourth wall has been broken
Who knows, god willing, we will all meet in spaceballs 2, the serach for more money. Haha epic
Funniest part of the whole movie.
They said "Now" 12 times
When?
They said “Then” 4 times
I've been waiting for a Space Balls 2 based on the episodes 1-3 for 10 years now. When will then be now?
With torrents and bootlegs so popular, this bit could easily be updated
This movie remains a classic. I love it
Mr Johnson don't play with me
We're at now now.
How I explain my streaming occupation
This is almost as classic as "Who's on first?"
this is awesome!! it has this similar feeling to Seinfeld for some reason.
@Marcatolegato He means "when will we be living a future event?"
I don't mean to put down anyone's work or anything, but this is the best meta-joke ever.
the tv experienced a time paradox XD
@Piisuke and walk hard? which is great
We need more Mel Brooks movies :[[
lol you can see Mr. Rental on he left.
That scene with Rey in Last Jedi be like:
when i saw this and they were talking like that i got so confused XD
