This. Its one of the best meta moments/stories in this movie. The whole time, he HATES his character and that line because he thinks its "cheesy" and beneath him. The alien (I cant remember his name) who takes it seriously shows him that even a stupid show with a cheesy line/character can have REAL meaning for people, and that meaning is something special and can even do things like have profound impact on peoples lives for the better. Its a wonderful showing of how/why people can take things like Star Trek or whatever so seriously and love it so much.

I had originally not wanted to see [Galaxy Quest] because I heard that it was making fun of Star Trek and then Jonathan Frakes rang me up and said "You must not miss this movie! See it on a Saturday night in a full theatre." And I did and of course I found it was brilliant. Brilliant. No one laughed louder or longer in the cinema than I did, but the idea that the ship was saved and all of our heroes in that movie were saved simply by the fact that there were fans who did understand the scientific principles on which the ship worked was absolutely wonderful. And it was both funny and also touching in that it paid tribute to the dedication of these fans. - Patrick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard on TNG)

And in the end it's the crazy fans who have memorized every inch of the ship that save the day.

[@Hiraghm]

I think one of the reasons this movie was so good was of all the character development: Jason learned to be a leader, and that it's not all about him. Alexander learned that, even though _he_ thought his role was silly... it actually _meant_ something to the audience. Mathesar developed into a real leader. Guy got over his fear and became a participating crew/cast member. Gwen learned to stop obsessing about how trivial her role was, and _made_ it non-trivial (notice how at the end she's telling Jason what the computer is saying... but we can't hear the computer...) Fred got his mojo back...

For being a scifi comedy with a modest budget, the creature effects in this film were great, as well as the attention to detail. In the first fight, Saris was whole, but after that one, he had a metal eye patch and a cybernetic hand. He also has giant wing/spines that are movable. And Alan Rickman's character had a headpiece that gets progressively beat up as the last half goes on.

[@Caseytify]

One of the best Star Trek movies ever made. It's more a love letter to the fans than a straight parody. ... I didn't see it in your reaction, but one of my favorite lines was Sigourney's "Ducts; why is it always ducts?" in an obvious reference to Alien. They mixed the original series and the Next generation together, as well as some of the other ST series. For example, Seven of Nine from Voyager was famous for being stuck in skin tight cat suits. William Shatner was always doing shoulder rolls, and frequently lost his shirt. Alexander Dane reminds me equally of Spock, Worf, and Captain Picard (can't escape his character, known for his catchphrase "Today is a good day to die", a respected Shakespearean actor). ... The time span between the original series and the revived Galaxy Quest was 18 years, which was the time from the end of the original Star Trek to the debut of The Next Generation. Coincidence? Fun Fact: Guy's scream in the pod room was unscripted. Sigourney's reaction was genuine surprise. Also, Guy was a reference to the original ST, where some unknown crewman died, as Guy said, to emphasize the danger. These poor souls became known as redshirts, as nearly every one who died in a landing party wore a red shirt. JJ Abrams included the gag in his 2009 movie. Of the three crew who space jumped to the drilling platform, the crewman in the red suit died.

[@mikejankowski6321]

Your references got caught in the blender. Worf was the one with the "good day to die" while Picard's was "make it so". But yes, a British guy with a headpiece as an intellectual (Doctor) alien. Great stuff! The best, fastest red shirt death was on Capella IV in Friday's Child...so classic.

The ego of actors, the whole fandom conventions, and of course Star Trek and other such movies and series. I loved it, still do! I think its funny how Sigourney Weaver's outfit becomes progressively more torn up and revealing as the drama intensifies. Much like the Captain losing his shirt on the first planetary landing. This movie is such a classic and I feel foolish for waiting so long to see it and appreciate it's genius.

Fred is so chill because his character is a pothead. BUT, in order to get the rating the had to remove the references to the actual drug. The closest they get is at 20:23 when Guy asks Fred if he’s stoned. But that’s why he’s always so chill and ALWAYS has his paper bag of snacks…. You know… munchies. If I’m not mistaken he missed the initial trip to the ship because he was checking the vending machine for more munchies. But, if you know, you know, Fred has a problem. Lol

[@baeleth]

I love that there is a Thermian audio track for the whole movie on the DVD for this movie.

They were awesome to meet.

[@McBeelzebub]

I assume others have already mentioned this but just in case, there’s a documentary about the making of the movie called Never Surrender that’s almost as good as the movie itself. Also I noticed that your nervous chuckles during the tense moments actually sounded similar to the Thermians when they were agitated. Good reaction!

16:15 "Rudimentary lathe..." This is an homage to Star Trek:TOS E1S18 Arean where Kirk defeated the Gorn captain by constructing a rudimentary bamboo cannon using Sulfur, Saltpeter, Diamond Dust (Sulfur, Potassium and Carbon being the components of black gun powder) , Diamonds, and iron-hard bamboo. Most of this movie is a set of callbacks and homages. It was not really so much a parody as a loving homage, which is why it worked so well. As another comment said, this is the 2nd best Star Trek movie behind ST2: The Wrath of Khan.

Such a beautiful tribute and loving parody at the same time. There are so many "moments" in this movie that it would take quite a while to list them all, but others have done their favorites. It's funnier if you watched Star Trek, but it is also fun and entertaining even if you didn't. It's a movie that, wisely, they didn't try to create a sequel. It could have never measured up, and they probably have difficulty reassembling the cast. Every actor played their character to the absolute pinnacle, and it fit together like a perfect jigsaw puzzle. A genius work of art.

[@twofacetoo75]

Just to clarify, at 23:38 - they DID believe them, it's just that now they understand the point of 'pretending' (acting), it's not for malice but for fun, and they're astonished at the genius behind the special effects of making a tiny model ship look gigantic. That's why they're laughing, they actually get it now, and they think it's incredible. I just wanted to point out because I always loved that moment. They're not mad about being deceived, they understand it was all in good fun and they're 'in on the joke' now.

[@joeb918]

This nails so many things about fandom in general even outside of Star Trek Trekkie/Trekker stuff. But as one myself it of course especially nails that aspect down perfectly, as well as the lives of the people on these shows and the convention circuit. It’s great stuff. Watching it in a theatre with friends and family who are also fellow Star Trek fans surrounded by others who weren’t was absolutely a great experience, especially because we were laughing the hardest and everyone else thought we had lost it completely.

The "real" Protector's bridge was built on a giant gymbal moved with hydraulic rams so that the director could randomly send the entire set crashing three feet in any direction he wanted.

I noticed his weird behavior but I just thought he was awkward. The rest of the movie is not short in awkwardness anyway. The parts where he is smoking were cut from the movie to get a PG rating. But if you pay attention you can see tiny bits of smoke around him in some scenes. Also there was cursing that was cut or dub-over to get the PG rating.

Came here specifically to find someone who commented this and click like. 3 Amigos was one of my favorite movies growing up, and Galaxy Quest joined it immediately as soon as it came out. They're both wonderful homages to their specific genres.

@𝕋𝕖𝕩𝕥 𝕄𝕖 𝕆𝕟 𝕋𝕖𝕝𝕖𝕘𝕣𝕒𝕞 @Addie_Counts Hi Addie! My apologies for the late response, I had to work a 12 hr shift today and I just got home. I hope that it was actually you that messaged me? Did I win something? 😁

Enrico Colantoni(Mathaxar, the head Thermian) plays a former sheriff turned private detective on "Veronica Mars." I also saw him in a few episodes of "Person of Interest."

He was a fashion magazine photographer in a sitcom, too, though I don't remember its name.

On the DVD, one of the language options is the alien language. You can watch the entire movie in their language.

I love that this movie has made the rounds on a lot of reactor channels. Its fun to revisit it in 30 minute doses.

8:54 That scream is the funniest part of the movie. :D

16:49 We are all that is left. First time they started to realize what this was all about.

I was happy to see you select this movie it has one of my friends in it Bill Chott he has just a small part in it as one of the fans at the convention but it always brings a smile to my face to see him in it even for just the couple minutes he's on screen

Alexander: Could they be the miners? Fred: Sure. They’re like 3 years old. Everyone looks at him. Alexander: MINERS, NOT MINORS! Fred: You lost me. 🤣

[@mikejankowski6321]

Many say that this is a perfect movie, and I have to agree. You will undoubtedly get comments covering all the aspects and trivia, so I will just keep mine to one: Fred was stoned. He was chill and constantly snacking.

This is the first time I'm watching one of your videos and I must say: I *love* how invested you are in the movie! You just seem to be having so much fun and empathizing with the characters the whole way. This was a total joy to watch. Especially since I love sharing Galaxy Quest with anyone I can get to watch it.

Brent Spiner & Patrick Stewart, LCDR Data & Captain Piccard in the Next Generation, went to the premiere. When it was over Spiner told Stewart "that was Star Trek movie we should have made" As for the ham acting, watch ANY of the original series, you'll understand! LOL The bathroom scene where the commander heard his fans mocking him actually happened to William Shatner the original Captain Kirk. This is one of my favorite movies

[@dcemerald70]

This is underrated comedy! I saw bits of it when I was a kid, but I managed to watch the full movie when I was older. I really loved the concept of the story; I also think it’s cool how it incorporates fan favorite moments from iconic space themed shows like Star Trek.

"Somehow I feel that Sam Rockwell never ages" ... Galaxy Quest (1999) :D
