This weekend is the 30th day of remembrance of Spaceballs , Mel Brooks ( somewhat ) darling Star Wars spoof . Brooks might ’ve coif out to imitate and satirize George Lucas ’ iconic work , but that does n’t imply everyone else did their enquiry .
In an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter , co - star Bill Pullman admitted that he did n’t learn Star Wars before co - starring in Spaceballs , intend he did n’t really know who his part , Lone Starr , was really parodying . And it was n’t like it was a new movie , either — all three film in the original trilogy came out twelvemonth before Spaceballs . A New Hope was a decade old by that point .
“ I miss it the first time around , ” Pullman said . “ I just need Mel to tell me what was go on . I did n’t want to see Star Wars to know what the whole thing was . ”

Star Wars may have embark on out as a surprise knock in 1977 , but it ’s since become one of the most fabled franchises in cinematic story , admit a prequel movie about Han Solo , Lone Starr ’s inspiration . Nowadays , it ’s kind of funny to imagine Pullman trying to parody something he knew much nothing about . Then again , it ’s Spaceballs . perhaps it in reality helped .
