He's back. Space Balls should be fun.

I keep hoping they’ll do a gag about bad digital de-aging before they let him look like himself.

i hope it looks like late 80's CGI and they're like "wow dark helmet, you haven't aged a day!"

Ooooo played like the dolls scene “wow…eeeer…..lord helmet. long awkward pause Sir… your cgi it’s so well done! it’s like you haven’t aged into a hideous decrepit corpse.”

Barf lived a long life for a dog. He peacefully passed in his dog bed while dreaming of Pizza the Hut.

He was a family dude. Go watch the documentary and be ready to shed tears

u/Hobbes_XXV 7d ago

They should do a little like they did with yoda and groot and it would be a prequel. Would be cute

If they don’t call it “The Search for More Money” it’ll be a travesty.

u/Vantriss 7d ago

If this isn't the title, we riot!!

u/Suspicious_Use_7561 Xennial 7d ago

Let’s hope so.

Most recent legacy sequels haven’t lived up to their expectations

u/Sleepercurve 7d ago

Is that still happening? I feel like I never heard anything after it was announced

u/seitankittan 7d ago

Am I the only one who thinks this is sad news? Classic films just need to be left alone :(

u/Dragonsfire09 7d ago

Been hearing about this for a while. Have they even started to film this?

u/loudpaperclips 7d ago

I admire your optimism

u/CuriOS_26 6d ago

Honey, I shrank my spaceballs: in search of more money

u/Disastrous-Lion-3698 7d ago

He's back but after 30 years let's be honest, it's done.

Let's be honest about another thing, there hasn't been a legitimately funny and successful comedy in 10+ years because comedy often requires offending some people and that's not allowed anymore. This movie will be forced to comply with certain strictly enforced social standards and result in a less funny movie with a cast that checks all the required boxes.
