That IS exciting!!! Spaceballs was the only movie my little brother and I had completely memorized. We're act it out at the dinner table, which would drive our dad insane because he thought it was such a stupid movie. Hahah.

I love the idea of a sequel, but really, who would take over the John Candy required role? I can't think of a single comedic actor today who could even close to JC's calibre. Possibly Wil Farrell, but even that might not work on some levels for this kind of movie since Wil doesn't seem to be able to play deadpan like JC could or Lesie Neilson can. JMO.

I recall a rumour that went around some time ago. This was about 4-5 years after Spaceballs came out. The rumour basically outlined the concept for another Spaceballs movie.

It was to be called Spaceballs 3: The Search for the Lost Sequel. Brooks was rumoured to be taking shots at the attempts to drag money out of the movie going public by producing substandard sequels, etc.

Of course this may have just been a rumour. Since it never happened I have no idea if its just an idea he had, or if he ever did anything to get the ball rolling on it.

PS: The action figures Dark Helmet was playing with in Spaceballs can be found at Planet Hollywood in Niagara Falls Canada. If they were not safely secured behind glass, they would have been found in my den.

All other things aside, I'll be *very* disappointed if the movie isn't subtitled "The Soich for More Money"!!! (I guess I'd settle for "The Search for More Money", but that's not what Yoghurt said...)

hmm well ive heard their going to use the "spaceballs three: the search for space balls two" as the title but it could have just been a rumor, and jc role could never be filled with any other actor, so they might just write braf out of the script, or at least with candy gone thats what i'd do

Spaceballs is easily one of the poorest films brooks ever made..ok ill say it its downright bad.
It does not even come close to Blazing Saddles or Young Frankenstein...In fact i think it is embarassing for this to be called a Mel brooks movie

Spaceballs was a creative hillarious film. If you think it is downright bad, you probably have some type of object lodged in your A$$! Have some fun. Embarassing to be called a Mel brooks movie?? Is there such a thing? Id like to see your accolades Tom!

Tom spaceballs is hilarious, and you're a faggot.

Id stick my spaceballs in your moms yoghurt

i think that spaceballs two will be great if any one hates the first one they are a fool who have no sense of humour the best bit is wen dark helmet says "evil will triumph because good is dumb" the second one i heard was space balls 3: the search for spaceballs 2

I agree with most of you, Spaceballs is the funniest movie I have ever seen. In fact, I can't even watch Star Wars without laughing at it, how ridiculous.

Tom, you're a Jackass in every sense of the word.

Perhaps I could send you some Midol so your attitude towards life might improve. Hey, it has helped for all the other Bitches I have met in my life.

Spaceballs is the best movie ever and I beleive that the sequel will be just as good as the first.

On anouther note, whoever thinks that Spaceballs is a bad movie must have a very large stick in his A$$!

Those Dolls are definatly at the Planet Hollywood in NF,ONT. Got me a picture with them...almost crapped when I saw them!

I think that Mel is going to have to comb the desert to find someone as talented as John Candy to play Barf, and i hope that he finds something more than S*!T. To the cool guy that thinks Spaceballs sucks, that would be you Tom, What is with you man?

I dont really think a sequel to one of the greatest movies ever is gonna be good idea.I mean cuz most of the time sequels downright blow, and i dont want that to ruin spaceballs for me.but thats just my opinion

Spaceballs 2??? I swear to god, I shed a tear when I heard the good news. I was so danged happy. I love it. The man is a genius. Now he can add stuff from the new Star Wars movies as well. As many people have previously stated, John Candy will most certainly be missed. No one could EVER replace him. I think the best solution to this would be to not even try to. If he wants to include something like Barf, make it be his son, Puke or somethin'. But whatever happens, I will be at the midnight showing of this movie. May da shwartz be wit joo!!!

Cool beans! I love Spaceballs and look forward to this new one. It is one of those movies that I never get sick of. Here's hopes that Dark Helmet has a lot of miss fourtune and says even more funny lines. "I am your father's, brother's, nephew's, cousion's former room mate." Cracks me up all the time.

I just want to know where I can find Spaceballs 2 I have the 1st and I want to find the 2nd one thank you
Ryan Wickman

how about these potential barfs: Mike Meyers(he did an exellent fat bastard and Shreq 2 well played fat roles), Horatio Sans(just cause he's fat), John Goodman(thats what my roomate just said), any other ideas please post!!!

I think Spaceballs is one of the best movies ever made. It's hilarious. I quote it all the time, I even nicknamed my roommate's ex-fiancee Horse-faced Space Dog. I saw it before I saw any of the Star Wars movies...I prefer Spaceballs!!! I can't wait for the sequel.

There is another alternative- a CG Barf with a voice actor doing the voice. Ok. So he'd end up being called Barf Barf Jinks.....

SpaceBalls is the best movie ever made. It's the only movie I've seen over 100 times and still laugh just like it's the first. John Candy is unreplaceable, but I think barf barf jinks will be a needed comic relif to a sad ending.

Spaceballs is the best sci/fi/comedy ever made, I've been watching it over and over for the last 15 years. Seeing as their releasing a 2-disc special edition DVD set; hopefully this means a closer release for SPACEBALLS 2.

OK, I agree SPACEBALLS is quite great, but I disagree with the young padawan who siad it is best than Star Wars.

It couldn't exist without Star Wars!!!!

Anyway, I find every single parody or fan film, or mention of Star Wars in any other communicative product to be rather and homage

Nevertheless I'm lookin forward to watch SPACEBALLS 2...

I'm a Mel Brooks' true fan, so, Rabi...GET ON IT!!!!!

Master Am-Aral

I'm glad Mel Brooks is making a sequel to the original Spaceballs. Spaceballs was amazing i can't believe tom even got on this site. he brings shame to the Spaceball community

I'm glad Mel Brooks is making a sequel to the original Spaceballs. Spaceballs was amazing i can't believe tom even got on this site. he brings shame to the Spaceball community.

yes this makes me soo happy, i love the original movie and i plan on buying the collectors dvd. the idea of a sequel makes me happy everywhere ;). but sadly i found out just last night that jon candy was dead. i thought he was still alive, but sadly he is no longer with us. he will be missed.

I thought I heard somewhere that it's going to be called "Spaceballs 2: Clown Wars" I, for one, would love to see this flick.

i was really hoping this would be released before star wars. i had heard it would be called, spaceballs: the prequel. i guess we'll have to wait and see.

spaceballs was the first mel brooks movie ive ever seen...it got me hooked! mel brooks is my favorite ever now...me and my friends watch his movies all the time...we even have mel brooks movie nites when we watch one rite after another...as for u Tom...who do u think u are??? whoever doesnt like spaceballs is worth less than the bottom of my shoe! anyway...mel brooks rocks...dont u ever forget that!

Pizza the Hutt rules

THis is too much goodness. Soguess what it's probably total and utter bullshit, so fucking unfair.

Spaceballs was an excellent parody of many films of the sci-fi genre and a sequel would be a brilliant idea. I've heard all the rumours and seen various suggested titles, but does anybody have any concrete proof that Mel is going to write the sequel?

I don't want to get my hopes up and then have them obliterated.

I must admit I thought spaceballs was a very funny movie, and the funniest part for me was when Helmet says he can't breath in this thing. lol

As for John Candy, they don't even need to replace him. They could CGI him, (with permission from those closest to him of course) I'm sure it could be done.

OK OK OK I would first and foremost say to TOM You need a stiff schwartz shoved right up yer rear.. You stupid scruffy looking nerf herding Jar Jar lover... Spaceballs is a cult classic.. At least I think it should be, as well as most of the other people who have posted on here.. No one could replace John Candy.. Chris Farley might have come close but unfortunately he has departed as well.. They should not even bother trying to get Barf back on the scene.. No one will ever be able to pull it off... They need to get cameo appearence's by sine if the Star Wars members.. I did like how they got Mark Hamill to appear in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.. I am a die hard Star Wars fan with a very large collection and I will always have a special spot on my shelf for Spaceballs...

TOM you suck your dead mom's manly balls!
if you would take time from jerking off to Leonarnd Lemoy you would see how AWESOME spaceballs is.

Spaceballs is brilliant for many reasons, the quote at the beginning of this review definitely among them. I was saddened to discover that Spaceballs 2 was a hoax, but Spaceballs: The Animated Series looks legitimate:

http://www.scrypticstudios.com/index.php/news/179

However, we at spaceballstheprequel.com will not rest until there is a prequel made - even a sequel will not make us entirely happy.

When I found out the news that there was going to be a spaceball sequel, i was so excited, I couldn't stop telling my mum. I have bombarded my friends at school with puotes from spaceballs 1 and they are all dying to see it. Tom, I cannot think of another theory about your lack of love for spaceballs except that you have had a lobotomy. I think that they should make lone starr take on a padawan. Barf Barf binks; good idea but it wont happen. My the schwartz be with you

I barfed with excitement when I heard of Spaceballs 2. Lone Death Starr Barf Barf Binks will prevail over your padawan. They should make a Schwartz temple like the jedi temple on star wars. They should also make a pizza the hutt ghost. Tom go stick your head where it belongs...in the toilet

Congrats on having another Spaceballs. My son who is 6, loves that movie,as also myself. I can't wait to bring him to see this one. I think there should be characters that are Jedi's make them Jewi's, that would be funny. And i will be waiting in line for this one.
Are the same actors gonna be in it, like the princess and her dad, Lonestar, Barf as we know it John Candy wont but maybe a son of Barf. Reg.(regurgutate)
See you at the show

Ok, this might seem like a dumb question for you guys, but help me out please: I'm from Germany and I've only seen the dubbed version - until today. In spite of the language barrier, I got most of the jokes in English, except maybe the most important one: *what* is The Schwartz? In German it's translated as The Juice but as I don't know what Schwartz is, I have no idea if that makes any sense at all - a lot of word games are lost in translation..... so if you could educate me here?

Mel Brooks (brilliant writer) now has 3 more episodes of Star Wars to make fun of...for which Lucas has helped him more than he could have ever imagined with the likes of Jar Jar and young Anakin. Add to that the Matrix and LOTR and there's no way a Spaceballs sequel can fail.

"I said fire across her nose not up it!"

Spaceballs is the coolest movie ever. Ive been hoping for a sequel since the line
"I hope to see you again in Space Balls 2, the Search for more money" but 17 or so years have gone by. I hope it comes out soon.

oh man
i knew something had to come

you know atleast a space balls special addition
with added cheesie effects or something

cant wait
and mell brooks hasnt made a bad movie
i still loved the newer stuff

he has to put chappelle as samuel jackson's character from the new crap movies

mmm
mmm good mutha f!ckin beer, b!tc#es

Kessy - Schwartz is not an English word. It rhymes with Force but sounds funnier. I suppose if anything, it's another self-referential Jew joke (schwartz sounds sort of like a Yiddish word).

i think it would be funny if john candy's character was just played by a puppy.

The Name will be Revenge of the Shtick.

Call it Spaceballs Episode 1: The Sequel

or

Spaceballs Episode 1: the Phantom Mench

I'd like to see it named Spaceballs 3: the search for spaceballs 2

Dude i'm 12 and I love Space Balls like when they go into ludicrous speed and dark helmet goes flying into the front when theyu stop and Tom sucks

Hey Tom you candy coated son of a bitch. You suck gorrila nuts. Spaceballs is funnier than you asshole. I'm gonna come to your house and shove a garden hose up your crusty ass and turn it on.
Spaceballs rocks!

Spaceballs 2 is gonna be too sweet! I wonder what dark helmet is gonna be like as a kid. I wonder if it's gonna be anything like the Star Wars. I wonder a lot of things about this new one, including when it's gonna come out. I cant wait. I am your father's brother's nefew's cousin's former roomate.

"I knew it! I'm surrounded by Asshole's."

Brooks has done it again!

when the heck is spaceballs 2 comin' out i loved spaceballs 1
so when will the sequal come out its been a pretty long time since starwars 3 and even longer since spaceballs 1

good job You make me feel like you are cooler than the coolest person on earth

How about: "Space Balls, Revenge Of The Gafeltafish."
I wish Mel Brooks would make a parody of "Lord of The Rings."
He could change it to "Lord of The Midgets, Return of The Dwarf." or something like that. John Candy was so funny. He's the only person I've ever seen that makes me laugh by just looking at him. One time on SCTV, he faked being choked-up and nervous between lyrics in an old Chiliwack song. It was his turn in the band to hit the high note in the song. Suddenly, on the lyrics "she leads along the way," he gasped half-way through singing and his face turned red with this uncomfortable look that only he could make. It would have made a cat laugh.

A great idea for a Mel Brooks sequel, something he has never done before, would be a combination of two movies coming together. Who doesn't remeber the ending to History of the World Part 1?

It would be great to see a movie where the "Spaceballs" encounter the "Jews in Space".

the greatest line in the movie is "when will then be now" and the answer of course is SOON!!!!!!

i changed my mind ur all a bunch of fucked up nerds who probably have memorized monty python too, you all can suck my cock cuz u suck

Spaceballs rocks u suck

u a$$holes who say it is better dan Star Wars!!!!!!!!They both ROCK OUT LOUD!!!but spaceballs wouldnt exist without star wars!!!!!!!!!!

i still say they both rock

also Tom u suck!Spaceballs is his BEST!!!!!!1
