Spaceballs The Animated Series TV Clip - Lord Of The Onion Rings

[sausagenmuff]

fuck I hate vector animation. it's like comparing a painting to a crayon drawing. fuck animators

[shockraid1]

Oh my God, this ... this BLOWS.

[jamesharvey]

The problem here is that the animation isn't done by anyone with a sense of comedic timing. There's too many edits to give the jokes room to breathe. Also, it sucks.

[AncientMagicINC]

He should know from Futurama... its a smell-o-scope

[metalgta4xcon]

Dark helmet doesnt sound the same without Rick Moranis!

[putabuela]

jeje it funny to see dark helmet as a very very tiny person in this toon, cause actually President Skroob and dark helmet are almost the same height XD

[thychaos]

well this was a disappointment. actually not really. i didnt have too high of expectations for a cartoon show of a movie. shows that come from movies usually suck anyways.

[TheTones20]

It is his Mells voice.

[HelveticRaven]

The animation is as attractive as an empty plastic bottle

[Lady162]

Holy crap! I think that's Mel Brooks' voice!

[CountVanAccount]

@Lady162 Lets hope not because I wouldnt want this to be the last thing people connect him with. they made a joke out of it in the movie and now they did it. Stupid if you ask me.

[NeoSarinatan]

You know, it's sad when I've seen better flash animation on the internet, made by only one or two people.

[laura20022004]

lol funny

[MacDragard]

I was hoping for more Star Wars parodies, since Spaceballs is, after all, supposed to be a huge parody of Star Wars.

[MrThomasCWest]

Spaceballs was a paradoy of a lot of the sci-fi genre of the time, just heavier on Star Wars.

Ahhhh.....To be young again....and also a robot.

[vigo894]

@MrThomasCWest To be young again, and have Vandal Savage's powers.

[MrThomasCWest]

Or a robot.

[Fawful5]

I for one don't think this is terrible. It's not as good as the movie; it's not the route I would choose, but it's not terrible.

[Tabbimura]

The Scroobs nose sence ewerything!!

[laura20022004]

wow

[dead82]

dark helmet look a little....tiny

[AMVpurgatory]

*sighs* Why must Flash be used in EVERY animated project these days? It brings the quality down so much...

[fotakatos]

It's probably not Flash but you're right: this style of animation sucks. Animation for dummies... <.<

[AMVpurgatory]

No, it has the distinctive look and feel of Flash animation. Actually, most television animation is done in Macromedia Flash these days. It's simply that many shows, like this one, are animated using all of the shortcuts in Flash rather than fluid, quality animation.

[newageoutlaw]

Cuz it's cheap and gives a quick turnaround.

[millenniumfalsehood]

After all, wasn't Spaceballs II supposed to be called "Da Soich fer More Money"?

*sigh* nowadays it's more about making money than it is about producing true quality. :,(

[mrbuch]

It's...... horrible. Is this a a real show? Why would they do this to Spaceballs?

[millenniumfalsehood]

If you can believe it, Mel Brooks *himself* was the brains behind it. There was something lost in this new show. It has the characters, it has the stupid jokes (which, if you're honest with yourself, were what made the first Spaceballs such a classic). It's probably because this is, essentially, a parody of a parody, and as such the comedic element is entirely dumbed down to a point that the whole thing seems pointless.

[mrbuch]

I hear you. But in his prime, I don't think even Mel Brooks would have dared to do a 'Lord of the Onion Rings' joke! Aw man. This depresses me. Thanks for the info by the way.

[millenniumfalsehood]

My point exactly. And I forgot to mention Thomas Meehan was also behind it. One thing I can pin down: Dark Helmet was the buttmonkey of the movie, be they've gone too far in the cartoon with the buttmonkey-ness. He's short, whiny, incompetent, and acts like a kid waaaaay too much.

[Guernicaman]

@millenniumfalsehood - It's like watching Spaceballs (or any Mel Brooks movie, for that matter) on basic cable.

[TheGrayWolf96]

@millenniumfalsehood

I guess you could say it's like making a copy of a copy, where the second copy isn't as good as the original.

[ztslovebird]

No offence to Mel Brooks, but he should stick to live action. And NO MORE TV SHOWS BASED ON CLASSICS!!!!

[batboyexe]

WHY ISN'T THIS ON SPACE!

[frankenmuth1]

it sucks that Rick Morranis is not voicing Dark Helmet

[scoutscampfiresong]

roflmao Scroobie - Doo 5/5

[MiyukiZero]

For a funny scene rewind 1:28 to 1:27 multiple times. It is funny like a Rock Lee moment.

[comicbookfanboy]

me love onion rings

[MiyukiZero]

Mel broooks is a genius with the cartoon and movies.

[PROTENON]

terrible animation, unfunny jokes, dark helmet is also not funny (he was the best character in the movie). mel brooks hasn't done anything in years so it's nice to hear his voice but other than that this series blows

[leatherjacket1]

why is darth helmet so little??? hes a friggin baby in this!!!

[pandagal21]

lmao

[ztslovebird]

Did you see the original movie?

[leatherjacket1]

hells to the yea

[ztslovebird]

His size in the cartoon makes fun of the original actor, who's pretty short in real life.

[Kalle72]

You don't say?

[39middle]

umm.. i thought lonestar's dad is a king and we have no idea how he is.

[ztslovebird]

Maybe he used the onion ring to become king.

[39middle]

maybe but.... if you could use onion rings to become king; then the blomin onion would rule the world.

[ztslovebird]

He said it was a MAGIC onion ring! But I wouldn't put much into the show, anyway.

[PrincessKairi124]

Bwahahahaha!!! :D Funny!!!! *Sighs* My dad has to see Spaceballs animated... :) I'm an anime fanatic/sort of a cartoon geek, so I REALLY REALLY find this hilarious!!! :3 And my dad likes South Park, so... xD
