This week, we’re joined by podcaster and writer Becky Darke to dive into the hilarious world of space opera parodies. We’ll be dissecting Mel Brooks' iconic spoof of Star Wars, Spaceballs (1987), and Dean Parisot's love letter to Star Trek fandom, Galaxy Quest (1999). Together, we explore the intersection of comedy and science fiction, unraveling how these two films 'find the funny' in the Space Opera genre.
From memorable one-liners to clever genre twists, join us as we celebrate the humor and heart that these parodies bring to the galaxy.
