'Spaceballs 2' Could Flop if It's Anything Like the Animated Series

In the summer of 1987, Mel Brooks brought forth what could arguably be the greatest Star Wars parody to have ever existed. Among other hilarious pieces of satire, Spaceballs gave us the Schwartz instead of the Force, a half-man, half-dog named Barf in place of Chewbacca and transformed the Empire’s Death Star into a giant robot maid that sucked the air out of planets. Even though it wasn’t well-received during its initial theatrical run, this space opera spoof has gained an enormous cult following, so much so that a sequel is in development. But there’s a ghost in Spaceballs’ past that I’m worried will affect this new movie. You should be, too.
