HOLY SHIT, RICK MORANIS IS COMING BACK!

(And a bunch of other original cast members too, which is also very cool, but Rick Moranis basically quit acting to be a stay-at-home dad three decades ago and this is the project significant enough to lure him back. It's gotta be a pretty good script if it's capable of that!)

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He’s been trying to get back into acting for a while now. This is a great movie for fans to get to see him in.

I was wondering if he was coming back. Really the most important character

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It would also be impossible to replace him. I'd say that imo it was his most iconic role.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Also the movie's most iconic character.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

What about John Candy though!!!!!

[–] IndigoLarry@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Gonna miss him as Barf. RIP

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago (6 children)

My wife says dogs don't live that long so they can spin it that way 🙂‍↕️.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

I know right. If they don't find a way to honor him I will be very disappointed. Better be big goddamn statue of him in that movie.

I didn't think we have the technology to bring him back

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

We sort of do but it will be a nightmare abomination of stitched together dead things.

(I'm talking about AI, not actual frankenstein tech, John probably would have been cool with that way of coming back.)

Well, this is certainly not something I expected to see today. Not sure how I feel about it. Amazon has a great history of ruining things they touch.

[–] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 23 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (5 children)

side-eyes Invincible

...almost everything. Kinda bummed we didn't get a Spawn cameo but, I get it.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 30 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

Fallout and The Boys are also very good. Also continued The Expanse well.

We asked what the fans want. Instead, we're making this movie.

Damn. Mel brooks is looking spry for 99.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I genuinely thought he had passed several years ago, I had a real Mandela-Effect moment when I saw this trailer, I thought at first "There's no way this will be funny without Mel leading it." Then he appeared and seemed old but energetic and thought "there is no WAY they used AI to resurrect him, this is horrible!"

It took a few minutes for me to figure out what reality I was in and I still have my doubts about Spaceballs sequel, not because I don't think it will be funny, but because the general population who discusses things and overanalyzes things get the loudest voice and review bomb movies that are supposed to be just fun and not a pointed social statement.

Dick Van Dyke is also still around and doing projects heading towards 100.

If keeping busy is keeping them around I look forward to each of their 150th birthday parties.

There are more and more promising trials of life-extension drugs, procedures and genetic tricks, It seems like we might be only a couple decades away from extending human lifespans* by around 30% from conservative averages.

I wonder how many of us are going to slide under that lowering Indiana-Jones door. And how many people are going to live on after seeing people they care for dying to a disease that we still think of as natural. and will look back at one day the way we look at how we lived before germ theory or antibiotics existed.

* in this case, "human" will probably mean wealthy white men, but it will be a start.

Definite proof that it's good to be the king!

Hey at least Mel Brooks won't have to wear makeup to play Yogurt. Dude is 98.

[–] Codilingus@sh.itjust.works 26 points 4 days ago (1 children)

He's 99 end of this month 😲.

[–] Gerudo@lemm.ee 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I just want him around long enough to see this made, and to get his parts in for Yogurt.

[–] Codilingus@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago

I'm hoping his soul refuses to rest until The Search for More Money is completed!

There was a rumor many, many years ago of Spaceballs 3: The Search for Spaceballs 2

History of the World Part II was honestly fucking great. It also had very little to do with Mel Brooks. It had brilliant comedians at the helm writing and steering everything: Ike Barinholtz, Nick Kroll, and Wanda Sykes. A goddamn DREAM TEAM, and they pulled it off regardless of the reviews.

This outing had better heavy hitters really leaning hard into the comedy. I've heard good things about The Naked Gun remake which is a lot of people in this same arena, plus Seth Macfarlane. That's quite a big team.

Please don't ruin this great movie with a sub-par sequel.

Rick Moranis, I'm speaking directly to you because I know in my heart you are using Lemmy.

You better fucking show up.

[–] SippyCup@feddit.nl 23 points 4 days ago (2 children)

He's already signed on, along with Bill Pullman

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] SippyCup@feddit.nl 10 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It seems like he's expected to return as well.

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

The REAL Rick Moranis wouldn't have horrible grammar and punctuation. He's Canadian.

Get outta heeeeeeere ✊

Damn, they're finally making 'The Search for More Money.' Too bad Disney kind of beat him to it.

[–] sartalon@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I hope Bill Pullman's son is in this too as Lonestar's son. And his name is Bob.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Cartoon went largely unnoticed, missing the subtitle (so far) "the search for more money" and if they hit that release year Mr Brooks will be over 100 years old.

He also fought in WW2.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 12 points 4 days ago

hahhaha! YES!

if Brooks is making it, sure.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 10 points 4 days ago

Oh god, no!
