Best Sci-Fi Spoofs
With the announcement that former members of Monty Python
are reuniting for a sci-fi movie spoof (please, please, please, and get sole
holdout Eric Idle to join in), I started thinking how many laughs I've gotten
from other humorous takes on the genre.
Here, in no particular order, are some faves:
Young Frankenstein
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Ah! Very good. Would you
mind telling me whose brain I DID put in?
Igor: Then you won't be angry?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: I will NOT be angry.
Igor: Abby someone.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: [pause, then] Abby someone. Abby who?
Igor: Abby... Normal.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: [pause, then] Abby Normal?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: I will NOT be angry.
Igor: Abby someone.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: [pause, then] Abby someone. Abby who?
Igor: Abby... Normal.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: [pause, then] Abby Normal?
Spaceballs
Dark Helmet: You have the ring, and I see your
Schwartz is as big as mine. Now let's see how well you handle it.
Galaxy Quest
Mmm…Monte Cristo
Mathesar: We have enjoyed preparing many of your esoteric dishes. Your Monte Cristo
sandwich is a current favorite among the adventurous.
Mars Attacks
Grandma Florence Norris: They blew up Congress! Ha ha
ha ha!
Something, Something, Something, Dark Side (and all the rest
of the Family Guy/Star Wars parodies)
Luke/Chris:
Echo-3 to Echo-7. Han old buddy, are you there?
Han/Peter:
Luke, we talked about this. I changed my codename.
Luke/Chris:
Oh, right. Echo-3 to Carlos Spiceyweener.
Han/Peter:
Carlos Spiceyweener here.
