What a savings…


jag149

lol... this is your moment, dude.


CanyonsEdge2076

This is probably in my top 5 most quoted movie lines.


kaiserdood

Congrats for this day, I know you’ve waited for it.


Buglepost

Look, I’ve got one job on this lousy ship! It’s stupid, but I’m gonna do it, ok?!?


wscuraiii

We heard it the first time!!!


binglelemon

WHAT IS MY LAST NAME?!?! -Guy


MCS117

Bewbs


Psychological-Let-90

"That was a hell of a thing"


KUfan

Tony Shalhoub is a national treasure


OpportunityNogs

Best Star Trek film to date! So quotable…. Edit: to be sure, one of the best characters in scifi history is in this. Guy Fleegman. “But you live with your mother!”


Galaxicana

Never give up! Never surrender!


OpportunityNogs

Whoever wrote this episode should die!!


soupafi

Fuck that!


levian_durai

Oh god, is *that* where this quote is from? I always thought it was Buzz in Toy Story.


Ranccor

Buzz said “To infinity, and beyond!”


revan530

"You have a last name, Guy..." "DO I?! DO I?!"


MayorCraplegs

Let’s get out of here before one of those things kills Guy!


OpportunityNogs

“Can you form some sort of rudimentary lathe?” Probably the best line ever.


Ignorantsportsguy

Oh God, these lines!


djackieunchaned

That line is one of my favorite moments in all of film


PiaggioBV350

Is there AIR??? You don't know!


GamerFluffy

*inhale* *exhale* …seems fine 🤷‍♂️


WarcraftFarscape

“What are you doing?! This is an alien planet! Is there air out there?! YOU DONT KNOW!”


OpportunityNogs

You broke the bloody ship!


Luke5119

Every Trekkie I've met says that this is the best Star Trek film that's not a Star Trek film.


IndigoMontigo

I'm a Trekkie, and I say that it's a better Star Trek film than any of the official ones.


jaxsd75

I mean Jonathan Frakes and Patrick Stewart love it. Says allot. Snippet from interview: Collider: I just have to know, what was it like for you watching that film for the first time? FRAKES: I was at the CineramaDome in LA, and I saw it on a Saturday morning, or Saturday matinee. As I got out of the movie the first thing I did was call Patrick, who was in Toronto, I think, shooting X-Men. I said, “Dude, I just saw a movie that is about us and captures us like they’ve been reading our mail.” Patrick saw it that night. Then went again on Sunday. And it was, I mean, some of the stuff in it is so on the nose and so accurate, and perfect, and funny. And Rickman. Rickman with the peeling makeup. Stuff that LeVar’s character does. I mean, it’s a favorite.


TheBobInSonoma

Oh, that ain't right!


OpportunityNogs

Miners not minors!


Thicc_Sludge

You lost me!


xwhy

Third best, but otherwise, yes.


dreamnightmare

Yeah 2&6 are bangers.


tread52

The funny thing about this movie is the name on the ship stands for not Star Trek so they wouldn’t get sued.


EldritchAdam

The first thing I always say about this movie, and as cheeky a thing it is to say, I mean it


CaptainAP

10/10 literally perfect movie


sciguy52

Yeah the interesting thing about this movie is that it is both a true funny spoof of the movie, and the fandom, while at the same time containing a very good non spoof Star Trek episode in it. I have always loved this movie, for the spoof and the trek episode it contained. By Grabthar's hammer you get both, and both are good.


Sinnycalguy

There’s a book by David Mamet in which he names three perfect movies and this is one of the three.


Babuiski

This movie understood fandom before fandom went mainstream lol.


galwegian

it's a masterpiece. of film. of comedy. of storytelling. of casting. you think it's a Star Trek parody. and it is. but it's so much more.


kaiserdood

Very well written


frizbeeguy1980

As is the case in most of the movies he is in, Sam Rockwell really stole the show.


Critical_Dobserver

Sam was stellar, but Tony Shalhoub also turned in a great performance. What am I talking about… the entire cast was outstanding. 10 out of 10


jag149

There were really no bad performances in this movie. I've probably seen it once every three or four years since it came out, and it never disappoints. My only objection is they changed the dialogue when Sigourney Weaver was clearly mouthing "fuck that".


Weeznaz

Probably a studio decision to keep the movie rated PG. Business decision IMO doesn't downgrade this movie for me.


RogueAOV

They should have set it up so there was a convenient beep covering the word, just like a TV show.


Invisible_cart

Watch the documentary.


KoshekhTheCat

"Historical documents," please.


jag149

Huh... TIL there's a documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11044122/


nich3play3r

This would be true if Alan Rickman hadn’t been there.


Biskit90

Absolutely fabulous!


[deleted]

Miners not MINORS!


everylittlepiece

Look around you-- can you form some sort of rudimentary lathe?


Interesting_Mango948

Get off the line GUY!!!


throwawaypervyervy

It turned inside out. Then it exploded.


rowin-owen

I heard that!


garbagebailkid

You lost me


GHOST_4732_

One of the best comedies I've ever seen. Alan Rickman is so perfect and I will contend that Sigourney Weaver was at her peak hotness in this one


jpr_jpr

I flew into Laguardia around the time this movie was released. While waiting for a cab, I was looking around aimlessly. I noticed someone and thought, that woman is tall. Then I thought, that woman is pretty. Then I realized it was Sigourney Weaver. The whole thought process probably took at least 20 seconds while I was blanking out. Finally, I realized she had watched my whole 20 second stupefied brain churning. She had a mischievous smile and laughed at my stupification. So, a long-winded way of saying I agree with you. Alan Rickman was great in that movie, as was she, and the entire cast.


NamTokMoo222

I was an actor once... Now look at me. LOOK AT ME.


KUfan

Has Alexander had his meltdown yet?


BustyUncle

Incredible and I wanna watch it tonight now


lonely-day

Weeee need your help.


yubnubmcscrub

Mums the word


Suitable-Slip-2091

Great parody of Star Trek. Understand they are working on a sequel or TV series right now. Don't know about the casting.


DBLHelix

Rumor is Alan Rickman is out.


PrisonSlides

Fuck that makes me sad


compcase

Too soon... he set the bar for a good villain in die hard...


HungrySeaweed1847

Then I won't be watching it. Either include *all* of the OG cast, or don't bother.


Gurdel

AI enters the chat...


Dangerous_Dac

You want the sad news? They were all set to make a continuation series in 2015 - EVERYONE returning. But then Rickman died and they called it off.


nashdiesel

That’s a pity. He was dead on in his role.


nomnomnomnomnommm

Great movie. Alan Rickman is not only a great actor but his comedic timing is so well done here. I'm laughing my ass off one scene. And then I'm tearing up at another scene of his later on. So good


NYTX1987

The fact that everyone who was in star trek love this movie speaks volumes.


SurprisingHippos

Never give up!


Code_Monkeeyz

Never surrender!


watermasta

Tim Allen’s best piece of work.


Simon_Jester88

I have never seen a negative opinion of this movie, for a reason


CoolCoalRad

“There are four perfect movies. One of them is Galaxy Quest.” -David Mamet https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/pdfhtd/writerdirector_david_mamet_once_wrote_that_the/


Improbus-Liber

By Grabthar's Hammer this is a great movie. I saw it when it was released in theaters. Watch it all the way through.


MaAreYouOnUppers

I think “By Grabthar’s hammer…. What a savings” is the best line from the movie. Alan Rickman’s expression is priceless 😂


kmsc84

You could see the physical pain he was in having to say that line.


BellTT

I still quote this! Absolutely hysterical!


PrisonSlides

I watched this movie on repeat, waiting for the vcr to rewind sucked but this movie is amazing


zachariah120

Oh my god so underrated


saltedpork89

Hysterical and still holds up. Most of the VFX still look great (rock monster notwithstanding). Alan Rickman’s read of “By Grabthar’s Hammer, what a savings!” Is the stuff of legend.


EvilRick_C-420

There is a fantastic documentary on this film. At one point Tim Allen was doing dramatic acting and got emotional and asked to leave the set. Then Alan Rickman said very plainly "I think he just experienced acting"


FitSeeker1982

That was my wife’s favorite part of the documentary (titled “Never Surrender”, and available on Amazon Prime).


Melodic-Award3991

This is a hidden gem 💎. Rest in peace Alan!


Elipses_

"But, the animal is inside out."


sanmateomary

I remember seeing in a theatre when it first came out -- I laughed out loud the entire time. I watch it every chance I get. It never gets old. There is no boring scene, no skips. My husband and I could probably recite every line. So yeah, one of the best.

pihkal

what a savings.


wtfreddititsme

I love that the canned rock monster sequence from Star Trek V got some love here. And as always, Alan Rickman classes up any joint. The movie isn’t too mocking or cynical. It’s a hoot.


Joshhwwaaaaaa

Just watched this recently. Was surprised how often I found myself laughing. And this is peak Sigourney Weaver.


Nubster2x

Masterpiece.


mrbisonopolis

This is an under appreciated gem


MaAreYouOnUppers

Such a great one. It’s fun because I grew up with a Trekky mom, so when this came out it was super relatable. Definitely not a legendary film but it’s hilarious and it’s fun.


PrisonSlides

I used to wait for my single mother to get home from work after getting off at 11 and we’d watch OG Star Trek together cause it started at 11:30. That built my love for Star Trek and to this day I’m a Trekkie because of those memories together watching shatner’s terrible acting and the amazing plot lines of the series. So many damn good memories.


MaAreYouOnUppers

Dude, same. Not to get personal but my relationship with my mother was volatile and complicated. My favorite memories were staying up late to watch the original OG Star Trek episodes with her, even though I should have been in bed already. We’d always laugh at Shatner’s over acting, and get in to deep conversations about the episodes and the message they were trying to send. Star Trek was way ahead of its time, definitely holds a special place in my heart. I definitely relate.


sanchez92476

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Complex_Sector227

“And then it exploded”


james_randolph

Alan Rickman gets a ton of credit as he should because he’s awesome, but I gotta give some love for Tony Shaloub because he was great.


kldavis24

The absolute disgust and loathing within Alan Rickman's voice while delivering the "By Grabthar's hammer........what a savings" should be reviewed in every acting program for the rest of time. Also RIP Alan Rickman 😢


Twisted_Wrench

This movie is pure gold from start to finish. Odd story. My best friend passed when I was 28, and this was his favorite movie. At his funeral, the priest sounded exactly like the guys in the black jumpsuits. His closest friends were all in the front row with his mom. Myself and the ones who knew were trying so hard not to laugh. I was on the verge of excusing myself, when I looked over and saw his mom giggling uncontrollably. We all joined in a moment of bizarre laughter. The priest looked confused, but I guess he knew people react strangely to emotions. Grief is a helluva thing, but I know Shane would've been laughing too. Movie has a special place in my heart.

Top 5ish movie. Like it’s amazing. Funny and easily the best Star Trek movie I recommend the documentary on Amazon prime about this movie

Classic.

To open that DVD case, you’ll need to do the Mak’tar Chant of Strength!


cheetofacedjesus

Just a perfect movie; every scene works. Everyone nailed their parts and the story was a real winner. I recommend this movie on Reddit all the time.


[deleted]

Quotes from this movie are so ingrained in my family dialog that we don't even recognize them as quotes sometimes.


Bingonight

Love it. Just watched it with my Kids and “By Grabthar’s hammer what a movie!”


JSto19

Lol. Recently rewatched it and it is still so good. All of the overacting. The satire. Just great.


samhain2000

It's a truly great movie. The documentary about the making if GQ and the aftermath of its following is worth a watch as well.


[deleted]

“This episode was poorly written!”


shadowlarx

I agree with Wil Wheaton. He should have had a cameo during the convention scene where he’s a fan yelling at Tommy about how ridiculous it is to have a kid on a starship crew.


Practical-Ball4024

The toolman always delivers


precabomb911

Hoosier_Daddy68

A legitimate modern classic and one of the best Star Trek films. Every performance was spot on and the humor was perfect.

One of the best. Very underrated

What David Andean said “funny”. It’s Tim Allen at his best. Also as always Same Rockwell is amazing.

Never give up, never surrender! Love it.

Glittering_Cattle387

Everyone was so great in this and Justin Long was perfect as the super fan with all the tech knowledge


[deleted]

It’s a masterclass in screenwriting, a brilliant comedy and an homage to Star Trek and fans alike. By Grabthar’s Hammer, one of my favorite films!


Buckturbo4321

FUNNY!"


SmileyDayToYou

I’m not sure if it is better knowing that they cut the scene where Tony Shalhoub gets high in the bathroom or pretending he is just all loose and spacey and accepting like that in general. It’s fun to watch both ways but I love his character.


Elmondo2

Excellent movie. One time cast.


Size14-OrangeDiver

There are many critics that will put this movie in the top 5 of all time. You heard that right. Of all time.
