I would've seen a second Spaceballs movie the first day it hit theaters. It would've been cool to see Brooks take a few stabs at a post-prequel Lucas. But Brooks decided not to make a movie- and we're getting an animated show instead. I don't know about anyone else here, but I'm not interested in seeing this cartoon at all.

BTW, If you don't know what I'm talking about, read this. I took this news from scifi wire:

Brooks Heads To Drawing Board
Mel Brooks, who co-wrote and directed the 1987 SF spoof Spaceballs, is working on a new animated television series based on the film, Variety reported. Brooksfilms will develop and produce an hourlong pilot and 13 half-hour episodes in partnership with Berliner Film Companie and MGM Domestic TV.
Brooks and co-writer Thomas Meehan will write the pilot based on the adventures of the reluctant hero Lone Starr, his hairy pal Barf and the feisty Princess Vespa, who must use the power of the schwartz against the evil Dark Helmet. Brooks will also provide voices for the characters he portrayed in the film, President Scroob and Yogurt.

Ooh...

I'll check it out no matter how good or bad it is.
