Spaceballs

"Comb the Desert"
Get ready for ludicrous speed, Spaceballs 2 is coming, but first… relive the original absurdity on the big screen!

Since its release, Spaceballs has earned a devoted cult following thanks to its sharp wit, iconic characters, and hilarious send-up of the Star Wars universe and other sci-fi favorites. From Dark Helmet’s oversized helmet to the unforgettable Yogurt and his “Merchandising” spiel, this film is packed with moments that fans keep quoting decades later.

Why see it now? In a time when big blockbusters dominate the screen, Spaceballs reminds us how clever comedy and fearless satire can shine. Plus, with the buzz around the upcoming Spaceballs 2: a sequel long teased but never realized until recently, there’s no better moment to revisit this cult classic and experience the original that inspired generations of parody films.

Behind the scenes, the making of Spaceballs is a story of creative risk-taking. Director Mel Brooks pushed boundaries with his sharp humor and commitment to practical effects, creating a timeless film that still feels fresh and relevant today.

Don’t miss your chance to catch Spaceballs on the big screen because in space, no one can hear you laugh… but at The State everyone will!
