      I would rather say “evil will always triumph, because good is complacent” but that’s not as catchy as Dark helmet’s quote. anyway peace is a lie, there’s only passion
      Note:I hope people get the reference I was making in the last sentence.

    Funny thing about the scene where Dark Helmet is drinking coffee from the Styrofoam cup. They made that scene intentionally because the crew kept leaving styrofoam cups around the set while they were filming and it became too much trouble to keep stopping to clean them up. So they added that scene to establish that the spaceballs just use those cups.

    The reason the effects are so good (at least for the time) is because they actually got the people who did the effects for Star Wars. George Lucas himself agreed to the project, on the condition that no merchandise be made. That was the inspiration for the MOICHANDISING!

    11:40 I am a "80's historian" myself lol.
    the surgeon joke came from the genuinely true fact that plastic sergeons were filthy rich and worked on their time. You had to schedule everything and since they were the 'bad boy' doctors of the time they were often late because they usually played golf. Back in the 80s they viewed playing golf as a status symbol.
