    So a sequel of a classic 80s movie, made 40 years later. Is there any chance whatsoever its going to be any good?

      With lowered expectations, definitely.

      Mel Brooks has a good handle on what is funny.

        Not for a couple of decades he hasn’t, see Spaceballs the series or crazy history of the world part 2

    We don’t need a spaceballs 2. Star Wars is already a parody of itself.

      And if that’s not bad enough, there’s the Zack Snyder knock-off that Netflix keeps waving in my face like a cat’s arse.

      I watched the first one, Netflix. You don’t get to fool me twice.

        I gave that a chance since I feel like people seem to be a bit unfair to Snyder but yeah it was so fucking boring and just copying Warhammer, Star Wars, Firefly, a couple other scifi serieseseses.

      What if it ends up being the star wars people want, like an inverse parody?

      I doubt it will even be good, but one can hope.

      I will accept him in one of two roles: the Schwartz Ghost of Dark Helmet or Crayola Wren, the plucky and colorful yet angsty child of Lone Star and Princess Vespa who idolizes Dark Helmet.

      Crayola Wren draws pictures of Dark Helmet in whatever the current equivalent to a Lisa Frank notebook is.

    Maybe it will be just as good as the star wars prequels and sequels

    I’d quite like a piss-take if the prequels, then one of the sequels. Although, quite a lot of the Sequel Trilogy took the piss anyway.

    I do not know who the fuck Josh Gad is, and a quick look at his IMDB page has not set my expectations stunningly high.

      He’s really more of a theater guy than movies. But he’s hilarious
