Spaceballs (1987)

This spoof of the “Star Wars” trilogy pits Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his faithful companion Barf (John Candy) against the evil Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis) and imperious President Skroob (Mel Brooks) in a thrilling quest to save a Druish princess and her kvetching android from the clutches of an evil empire; failure will mean the destruction of a peaceful planet and the reversal of the princess’ nose job. Paying homage to countless classic sci-fi moments along the way, Lone Starr must accomplish epic feats of derring-do and harness the power of the Schwartz to save the universe, and, of course, pay off his debt to the nefarious Pizza the Hutt.
