The 10 funniest scenes in Spaceballs (imo, obviously). With a movie full of memorable quotes, a lot of one-liners and sight gags were bound to be left out.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing". -Edmund Burke "Evil will always triumph because good is dumb". -Dark Helmet Gotta love the contrast!!!
I've always appreciated the subtle visual gag with the comb the desert scene... Specifically the part where Dark Helmet uses his megaphone to talk to a guy a couple of feet away from him but doesn't use it to talk to his troops who are much farther away.
Steven Levine That's Mel Brooks for you always making fun at stereotypes mainly racism, (Spaceballs, To be or not to be, History of the world part 1 and (Blazing saddles partly written by Richard Pryor) plus many other films he made, complete comedy genius
I don't know why, but since the first time I heard it. The way he says Fuck, makes me feel like no one could ever make Fuck sound as terrible as he had.
God this movie is still hilarious. I mean every time I watch a comedy from like the 80s or something, it's never funny, the jokes are just stupid, but this movie is still hilarious all these years later!
what are you talking about, man? have u seen Airplane! Beverly Hills Cop (even though its mostly drama), Spinal Tap, Caddyshack, NL's Vacation(Chevy Chase), Top Secret!, Naked Gun, Fish Called Wanda?...
I like the part where they're in the desert and he uses the megaphone to talk to Sanders, when Sanders is right next to him, and then puts it down and shouts at the people out combing.
"Fuck, even in the future nothing works" So, true today. Must install update, no service in area, cartridge misaligned. Fuck! Even in the future nothing works!
+Jesse Finnerty ... "The sheriff's a ..." DING goes the bell.. too funny and Cleavon Little was great in that movie, Richard Pryor was actually supposed to get the role.
I think an underrated gag is Dark Helmet using his megaphone to speak to Colonel Sandurz, who is directly beside him, and then putting it down and shouting with his hand near his mouth to the desert combers
Spaceballs is real masterpiece - funny, interesting, intriguing and very entertaining. Visual effects were awesome too.This parody on Star Wars, Alien, Planet of Apes became my favorite spoof film (along with Galaxy Quest). Bill Pullman, Daphne Zuniga, John Candy, Mel Brooks, Rick Moranis and all others did a brilliant job. Too bad they didn't make a sequel. That-time Spoof films had nice jokes while our modern ones only can use strong language, black humour & sex. No originality these days
This movie is 25 Years old and I'm still laughing the shit out of me....The Humor still works...after 25 Years....Well done, Mel and may the Schwarzt be with you!
It's kinda funny how everyone's like "You missed this" and "You left out that", when the first thing in the description says "imo" or "in my opinion". Of course he didn't include all those other things. They didn't make it into his personal top 10 funniest scenes. Sure, the title says "10 Best Gags", but that's what the description is for: to describe. Unfortunately few people actually look at it and just assume the title says it all. Which can make them look really stupid.
Fun fact: the doll scene was completely improvised by Rick Moranis.
and that was Dick Van Patten's real hair as well.
Henchman Twenty1 Totally agree
***** The actor who played Dark Helmet here and was also in Ghostbusters. Seen that film?
srbarkerchan Too bad he is no longer acting. Apparently he stopped it to take care of his kids.
Henchman Twenty1 damn you beat me too it
"What's the matter Colonel Sander, chicken?"
I just got that, my fucking god.
I didn't get it until I read your comment.
Michael Bell lol! we all have those moments, brother.
Please explain :/
That was funny but I think I didnt understood it properly
Colonel Sanders is the founder of KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken).
My World In Disorder .... I didn't get this joke till just now and I have seen the part many times. FML
"Druish princesses are often attracted to money and power"
Mel Brooks is such a genius
Mel brooks is one of the most oldest actors at age 96 when Betty white surpassed at age 99
"Funny, she doesn't look Druish."
Rick Moranis improvised that.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing". -Edmund Burke
"Evil will always triumph because good is dumb". -Dark Helmet
Gotta love the contrast!!!
Hahaha :) Awesome and oh so true comparison my friend :)
+RayJayRob What good are rules/laws with no one to enforce them?
+RayJayRob Contrast? One could argue that not doing anything to stop evil is kind of dumb...
Or for Good men to not know the difference, as is what's happening today.
Then it's up to the good women, obviously,
smh
One of my fav bits is when the good guys have been 'captured'... "That's not them, you've captured their stunt doubles!"
2:15.. Perhaps the best breaking of the fourth wall joke ever made
+Nevan Slone That joke was so great, we're still working on fixing the fourth wall. It's costing us a fortune!
And then the Deadpool movie will come out, and everything will have been for naught.
+Nevan Slone I agree that and the rewind scene from Funny Games (1997), are the most ingenious 4th wall breaking ever made.
"Good is Dumb"
The better was when they hit cameraman during fight between Lonestar and Dark Helmet
"We ain't found shit". That's Tim Russ, Tuvok on Star Trek Voyager. LOL!!!
Sunovabitch, so he is!
And principal Franklin in ICarly.
@@tamrinto holy shit I never knew that
@@dawsynlarson696 if you don't believe me, look it up.
You left off ludicrous speed
sakollada1968 Yes, I did.
+BrotherReed "Oh, buckle this!"
+sakollada1968 Quite Ludicrous how they left it out.
+sakollada1968
And the 'breaking'. :)
+sakollada1968 And the alien! xD
I've always appreciated the subtle visual gag with the comb the desert scene...
Specifically the part where Dark Helmet uses his megaphone to talk to a guy a couple of feet away from him but doesn't use it to talk to his troops who are much farther away.
Yeah I noticed that
“We ain’t found shit!”
can't believe you cut before 'keep firing, assholes!'
superextremelaser IKR!!
+superextremelaser actually im glad he did. that parts not as funny
We ain't found shit!
Ghaz3k THATS RACIST!
Steven Levine That's Mel Brooks for you always making fun at stereotypes mainly racism, (Spaceballs, To be or not to be, History of the world part 1 and (Blazing saddles partly written by Richard Pryor) plus many other films he made, complete comedy genius
Steven Levine double negatives are racist?
Steven Levine that ain't racist, that's tuvok from star trek voyager.
Steven Levine ROFL CRY moore
"Now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb" lol
"What's the combination?"
"12345!"
"12345?"
"Yes!"
"That's amazing I've got the same combination on my luggage!"
The mandela effect has changed the movie dialogue
Damn it, you know my password now. I hate changing my phone's password... Maybe it will be better if I set it 123456. You'll never figure it out!
What about the bleeps, creeps, and the sweeps?
James Davis Well if I had thought it was one of the 10 funniest gags, it would be in the video, wouldn't it?
James Davis The what, the what, and the what?
BrotherReed So effectively, you went OVER OUR HELMETS!
+James Davis or they've gone to plaid?
+James Davis Iam Barf a Mog. Half man half dog.... I am my own best friend.
Besides the Austin Powers movies, this has to be one of my favorite spoof movies.
Mike Barr I thought it spoofed James Bond. I'm most likely wrong.
***** Oh! Thought I was wrong for a second. Thanks Josh.
Spaceballs, Austin Powers, American Pie (all 3), Scary Movie 4, Naked Gun, and Zoolander were hilarious.
I love how out of nowhere Dark Helmet starts having a semi-jamaican accent while taunting Lone Star
"Did you see anything?!"
"No sir. I did not see you playing with your dolls again."
Love that scene!!
This movie is rated PG and it drops the f bomb
This movie presensitivity meaning that it was ok to say these things because most people knew how to take a joke back then
It's these damn colleges!
Mike Manboob There wasn't a PG-13 rating at that time
viKing1428 Not so! PG-13 was created in 1984. Spaceballs was relased in '87.
+Mike Manboob You get a limit of 1 f bomb. 2 or more and it's rated R.
Another interesting one. *Skroob running* "President Skroob... Salute! Hail, Skroob!" Skroob: "The ship is too big. If I walk the movie will be over."
Retro PC User Fun Fact: Skroob is spelt Brooks backwards because it’s Mel Brooks who is the director.
Well, almost. Yet, Skroob is funnier than Skoorb.
On number 6, you forgot the part where president Skroob comes in and says "That's the combination I have on my luggage"
#9 was always my #1.
Here it is!
Out Of Order?!?
FUCK! Even in the future nothing works!
I don't know why, but since the first time I heard it. The way he says Fuck, makes me feel like no one could ever make Fuck sound as terrible as he had.
Jesse Royer You make an interesting point - when you reserve a word it's meaning is amplified.
God this movie is still hilarious. I mean every time I watch a comedy from like the 80s or something, it's never funny, the jokes are just stupid, but this movie is still hilarious all these years later!
what are you talking about, man? have u seen Airplane! Beverly Hills Cop (even though its mostly drama), Spinal Tap, Caddyshack, NL's Vacation(Chevy Chase), Top Secret!, Naked Gun, Fish Called Wanda?...
brian head Yeah I have seen most of those, I guess you got a point. I just about died laughing when I watched This is Spinal Tap
*****
How could you not know Spinal Tap is a comedy?
"Even in the future, nothing works!"
The most relatable line of all
Whats the matter Colonel Sanders, CHICKEN??
p- pawkahk, prepare ...
I like the part where they're in the desert and he uses the megaphone to talk to Sanders, when Sanders is right next to him, and then puts it down and shouts at the people out combing.
1:40 - 2:14
Soo that's where Stewie Griffin's accent and personality came from :D
Did you see anything? No sir, I didn't see you playing with your dolls again. Rofl
So actually he saw?
Rick Moranis improvised that entire scene, by the way!
Missing: Jamming the radar...with a jar of Jam
Raspberry
Only one man would give me the raspberry...
KlunkerRider LONESTAR!
qazqa5 [hit the camera] dunk
"evil will always triumph because good is dumb"
"Fuck, even in the future nothing works" So, true today. Must install update, no service in area, cartridge misaligned. Fuck! Even in the future nothing works!
The fact that they didn’t do anything to hide the faces of the stunt doubles is such an underrated classic. Lol.
30 years later and this film still brings me tears of laughter!!!
Colonal Sanders killss it!!!
5:05 you can clearly see George Wyner is doing his best to deliver the line without busting up laughing especially at 5:16 LOL
I love the Dark Helmet voice Rick does, it’s so fitting for an evil emperor
KEEP FOIRING, ASSHOLES!
Col. Sandurz: "It's megamaid, she's gone from suck to blow!" LMFAO!!
I agree this needs the ludicrius speed scene.. and you forgot the funniest keep firing assholes line from #2
yeah, but he can't play all the funny jokes or the whole movie will be in the clip.
I love it when Lonestar tells Princess Vespa "From now on, you will refer to me as IDIOT, not YOU CAPTAIN!" lol
I love how Kylo Ren's character is essentially Dark Helmet
No, Dark Helmet is way better
Don’t you ever disrespect dark helmet like that again
Why have best parts? The whole movie is fu*king funny
That was hilarious how he reacts when the general barges through the door while Lord Helmet plays with his dolls.
My favorites are "funny she didn't look druish to me." And " I am your father's,Brother's,Nephew's,Cousin's former roommate m"
#1 should be when spaceball one is jammed
I really have to rewatch this movie some time XD
This is a comedy classic
I love when Dark Helmet was speaking as if his helmet were down even though the helmet was up.
The gag at 3:19 is especially funny now that the actor has become known for playing Tuvok, a particularly stoic character on Star trek: Voyager
'Even in the future nothing works.
Probably my favourite line in the film.
Rick Moranis and George Wyner completely stole the show. Brilliant chemistry.
That was ludicrous!
"What about you guys?"
"We ain't found shee-it"
Mel Brooks movies packed so many gags in, you needed to watch them several times just to get them all.
MAN WE AIN'T FOUND SHIT!¡!! I love that part.
my favorite part of the whole movie is between 0:00:00 - 1:36:00
Only Mel Brooks can get away with a black joke...hahaha
What about Blazing Saddles? I think he'd get lynched if he tried to make that movie nowadays...
+Jesse Finnerty ... "The sheriff's a ..." DING goes the bell.. too funny and Cleavon Little was great in that movie, Richard Pryor was actually supposed to get the role.
“We ain’t found shit!”
Will always be my favorite. 😂😂
My favorite joke of all time is, "I'm a Mog. Half man and half dog. I'm my own best friend."
One of the funniest movies in history!
Whats the matter colonel sanders? CHICKEN?!?
Missed the scene in the diner. Especially the 'check please' at the end is unforgettably funny!
I think an underrated gag is Dark Helmet using his megaphone to speak to Colonel Sandurz, who is directly beside him, and then putting it down and shouting with his hand near his mouth to the desert combers
Spaceballs is real masterpiece - funny, interesting, intriguing and very entertaining. Visual effects were awesome too.This parody on Star Wars, Alien, Planet of Apes became my favorite spoof film (along with Galaxy Quest).

Most families watch Frosty the Snowman at Christmas time. Mine watched Spaceballs. Is it any wonder I ended up as messed up as I did?
Why doesn't this have more views. Just watched it after a few beers and I laughed my face off!
I loved the movie.
This whole movie is a gag, and it is amazing for it.
Thanks for the laugh
12345? AMAZING!!! I've got the same combination on my luggage!
so what this list is telling me is that Rick Moranis acting and improv+Mel Brooks writing and direction=comedy gold
This movie is 25 Years old and I'm still laughing the shit out of me....The Humor still works...after 25 Years....Well done, Mel and may the Schwarzt be with you!
The best gag is the entire movie.
when will then be now?
soon...
Very soon!
"now you see that evil will always triumph........because good is dumb." LOL; cracks me up every time!
Brings tears every time! Love it!
Geoge Lucas made Mel Brooks agree that no acton figure be made for his star wars parody, Space Balls. Tht isspiored number one, here.
And the whole "moichendising" scene with Yogurt.
***** "MERCHANDISING!"
The single greatest one-word movie quote in history!
Missing "Spaceballs? shit there goes the planet"
My favorite'll always be: Dark Helmet, "How many Assholes we got on this ship"
Crew, "YO!!!"
+Danny Lawson Dark Helmet-"I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes."
(Lowers mask.)
Dark Helmet-"KEEP FIRING, ASSHOLES!!!"
Thanks for adding that, I forgot all about that part!
My favorite movie of all time!!!!! I love this flick and laugh every time i watch it
All the movie is funny
I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes. Story of my life.
same
That's what the mayor of San Francisco says every day. Ha ha ha.
Yeah. Even my friends are assholes.
Dear me, what are those things coming out of her nose?
SPACEBALLS?!?!
Oh shit, there goes the planet.
this movie will never get old
12345? Amazing - I got the same combination on my cell phone :-)))
Luckily my new one is protected with my thumb print :-))
It's kinda funny how everyone's like "You missed this" and "You left out that", when the first thing in the description says "imo" or "in my opinion". Of course he didn't include all those other things. They didn't make it into his personal top 10 funniest scenes. Sure, the title says "10 Best Gags", but that's what the description is for: to describe. Unfortunately few people actually look at it and just assume the title says it all. Which can make them look really stupid.
Great collection! Number one was great!
I dont know why there is a top 10 when this entire movie is gold.
No "I've lost the bleeps, I've lost the sweeps, and I've lost the creeps"?
That’s not all he’s lost.
"Even in the future nothing works!" - Big helmet guy
I am now convinced to watch this, thnx
I love the fact that he uses the bullhorn to talk to Sanders who's right next to him, and then just yells at the guys in the distance.
I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes.
and sadly nowadays we have "epic movie" an "meet the spartans" ..................
That "chicken" gag is possibly one of my favourite of all time.
Absolutely love this film!!
#2 and 1 need to be reversed. the Asshole scene was the funniest and best one
Agree
Evil will always triumph because good is dumb. Sounds like the Star Wars prequels!
I like how Helmet uses the megaphone to talk to Sanders, who's right next to him, but he yells to talk to the guys who are far away.
I love Michael Winslow's part and where Rick wanted to rip that MIC off as he clumsily tried to hang it up.
#2 needs to be bumped up to #1, and the original #1 (now #2) should have Ludicrous Speed, GO!!!!
and stop
John Hurt saying "Not again!" as the alien burst through his chest was up there too.
"Check please!"
This somehow becomes a lot funnier when you imagine Lord Helmut as a parody of Kylo Ren.
These Gags are hilarious 😂
