    GALAXY QUEST MOVIE REACTION | 0:00 - 30:44
    GALAXY QUEST MOVIE REVIEW | 30:45 - 32:12
    Galaxy Quest Movie Description:
    The stars of a 1970s sci-fi show - now scraping a living through re-runs and sci-fi conventions - are beamed aboard an alien spacecraft. Believing the cast's heroic on-screen dramas are historical documents of real-life adventures, the band of aliens turn to the ailing celebrities for help in their quest to overcome the oppressive regime in their solar system.
    Galaxy Quest is a 1999 American science fiction comedy film directed by Dean Parisot and written by David Howard and Robert Gordon. A parody of and homage to science-fiction films and series, especially Star Trek and its fandom, the film stars Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell and Daryl Mitchell. It depicts the cast of a fictional defunct cult television series, Galaxy Quest, who are visited by actual aliens who think the series is an accurate documentary, and drawn into a very real interstellar conflict.
    The film was a modest box office success and positively received by critics: it won the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Nebula Award for Best Script. It was also nominated for 10 Saturn Awards, including Best Science Fiction Film and Best Director for Parisot, Best Actress for Weaver, and Best Supporting Actor for Rickman, with Allen winning Best Actor.
    Galaxy Quest eventually achieved cult status, especially from Star Trek fans for its affectionate parody, but also from more mainstream audiences as a comedy film in its own right.
    Several Star Trek cast and crew members praised the film. It was included in Reader's Digest's list of The Top 100+ Funniest Movies of All Time in 2012, and Star Trek fans voted it the seventh best Star Trek film of all time in 2013.

    Sam Rockwell's scream after the transport was not in the script, was ad-libbed by Sam. It Caught Sigourney off guard, and her shock jump was real. They kept it in the final cut :)
    The whole film is a nod to the fact that Star Trek actors end up on convention circuits, and the fact that Kirk in the original series always ended up with his shirt off.
    Alan Rickman: "OH YES, IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT YOU ISNT IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".
    There is a documentary about the film with a couple of actors, Will Wheaton and Brent Spiner praising it.
    Oh and Tony Schlaub's character was originally supposed to be non stop stoned, hence why he was always mellow, or had the munchies. Sigourney Weavers 'Well Screw that !!!", read her lips to see what she actually said.

      Also, the self destruct ending at 1 second was another such send-up of the trope of "saving the ship at the last second."
      Undoubtedly, all the shows ended countdown timers at 1 second before detonation, so they designed the system literally to end destruction at "1 second," not whenever they actually cut the write or pressed the button, or whatever. Funny riff. ;)

      ​@@MuljoStpho That's a good question. They actually give a small hint? The problem, you watching from a human perspective. We're used to lie and be lied to, to make believe. Simply because our communication system enables us to speak untruth. Acting is pretending aka lying about who you truly are, as entertainment or a way to get into the pants of a pretty girl. What if, because of its evolution (or the physical laws of a an entire universe) an existence is unable to develop the ability to lie and pretend?
      Thou shalt not lie!
      To humans it is as natural as breathing, but the dooming consequences to civilization unseen. The subliminal message of this funny little movie: Your whole world, your entire life is a lie! Ha!

    Did you notice how, when Sarris showed up on the ship, he has that thing bolted to the side of his face? That's a "bandage" over a wound he suffered when Jason attacked his ship at the beginning, not knowing all this was real. So Sarris has a personal bone to pick with Jason, aside from just wanting to kill all the Thermians.
    I think the most wonderful thing about the movie is that last shot that flies up over the actors' heads and ends the story with the shot of the applauding, adoring audience. This film was made when fans were still considered losers, before geek culture became cool. It felt really wonderful to have a film say that fans were valuable people, that geeks could actually save the world precisely because they _were_ geeks.

    1:35 Patrick Stewart actually said that he initially dismissed/avoided this movie because he expected it to just be a parody of Star Trek that made fun of the actors and fans. Jonathan Frakes told him that he needed to go see it in the theater, with a full audience. He did, and he ended up loving the movie and how made the fans of the show turn out to be the true heroes (by helping the cast at the end of the movie with all their knowledge of the show).

    The going back in time being "cheap" is what they are commenting on with that scene. Many people would laugh about the time travel episodes in Star Trek. Guy was made after a real person, who used to work for Paramount, and was often and extra TNG as a security or transporter person. They immortalized him in this move.

    The bridge of the ship was actually built on a moving set so that all the actors was thrown around in the same direction then the ship was hit because the directors vision was to make it as real as possible.

    I saw this in theaters when I was 16 and was regularly going to scifi conventions like in the movie. So I loved it from the very first time I saw it! You can tell that the people who made it had seen those same conventions. One thing that I notice every time is in the scene where they are trying to go through the "chompers" you can see that Gwen actually says "Well fuck that!" And that is what she said when I saw it in theaters. But once it went to DVD and of course tv they dubbed over it with "Well screw that!"

    Mellverse - “Man, who did these effects?!”
    Well, I have your answer my guy. The man behind the effects was the late and great Stan Winston, he was a master of his craft and worked on a lot of films like the first four Terminator films, the Jurassic Park trilogy (before World became a thing), John Carpenter’s The Thing, Pumpkinhead (his directorial debut), Inspector Gadget and his final film before his death, the one that kickstarted the Marvel Cinematic Universe… Iron Man.
