Still quote this all the time

Tony Shalhoub's character is stoned throughout the movie. That's why he's so mellow and always snacking.

Star Trek fans voted this movie to be amongst the top 10 best Star Trek movies is all time. Even Patrick Stewart really liked this film.

Enrico invented how the aliens act. When he went in to read for the part, he used that voice and cadence. He then worked with the actors playing them and they developed the walk and other eccentricities.

There was actually a scene cut of Monk getting high before they left Earth. That's why he's acting weird and snacking the whole time. He's high as a kite.

"Galaxy Quest": The best "Star Trek" movie that Paramount didn't make.

One of the best movies ever made imo. A great masterclass in filmmaking really; it is put together so well and a star studded cast to boot.

Easy to miss detail: Guy spends the whole movie worrying about dying, but in the final shootout he was the only one of the main crew who didn’t get shot

Sigourney weaver wanted a chance to play against type. The wig is hers and she plays a "dumb blond".

The squids looked so good because they were models. No CGI. Rubber and goo!

"...and now back again after 18 years" The gap between Star Trek: Original series and Star Trek: Next gen was, you guessed it, 18 years.

5:00 That scene was based on William Shatner’s real-life experience at a convention, in fact!

There was an episode of Saturday Night Live with guest host William Shatner. There's a skit where he's at a Star Trek convention and he's being asked questions about the show. He responds with (a paraphrase I'm not looking this up) 'I'm just an actor. I play a part. I don't know what the script writer meant by that. Why are you so obsessed with this show? Get out of your parent's basement and get a life!" Some people were very upset.

Weavers shirt is zipped down later in the show after the button scene because there was a deleted scene where she undid her shirt to try to distract one of the alien guards, but since that scene was deleted they would have had to reshoot the 2nd half of the show to have her shirt done right, but they decided just to keep it zipped down. Not complaining of course.

I remember one time I was working for a security company, and they found me a gig at a private school. But not as a security guard... My job was to walk around the school every half hour and make sure all the fire extinguishers were fully charged. (Because the school's fire alarm wasn't working.) That's 12 times a day, walking by each of the fire extinguishers mounted around the school and looking at them to make sure that little gauge on the side was still in the green... *"Look! I have one job in this lousy school, it's stupid, but I'm gonna do it! Okay?"* By the third or fourth day, I was reciting that line probably at least as often as I was checking the extinguishers.

Last Year, at the store I was working at...our water main exploded one morning. The store didn't have running water all day. Night came (my shift) and we had water but no sprinkler system. They had to assign 5 of us to walk the store be sure there wasn't some random fire breaking out. We weren't allowed to talk to them or distract them in any way. I was speaking to one of them at the end of the day and he looked like their brain was melting out of his ears. He said it was the most brain-numbing day of his entire life. Walking the same 3 departments all night long. His fitness tracker said he did 12 miles that night.

After they all get transported, Guy screams and you see Gwen flinch. That wasn't in the script. Sam Rockwell decided to add a scream to the alien reveal and Sigourney Weaver's reaction was 100% genuine. The original script was a lot more adult than the finished movie. There is a deleted scene where Fred gets high before he goes to the ship. That is why his behaviour is off. When Gwen and Jason are faced with the chompers, Gwen says "Well screw that". However, if you read her lips, she didn't say "screw", she said "fuck". That is another rewrite to make it more family friendly. They just didn't bother to reshoot the scene.

This is one of my all time favorite feel good movies. I saw it in the theater with very low expectations. I could not stop laughing.

This is one of my top comfort movies! Its so silly and fun while also having heart. Great reaction as always! Also, did you notice that when Saras was killing everybody, the only person not getting shot was Guy? 😂 I always loved that little detail after him being scared the whole movie of dying first.

12:57 Funny Fact: The registry letters that are scrapped off were “NTE” which stood for “Not The Enterprise” 🤣

"Who does Sarris' voice?" Robin Sachs - the same guy in the suit - that makeup is alll practical.

Possibly we all know him better as Ethan Rayne from "Buffy". Sadly, along with Rickman, he is no longer among us, but how wonderfully committed to every role he was!

"What happened to Robin Sachs?" Meanwhile right there on the screen it says "Died of a heart attack in 2013" (which is why his filmography ends in 2012). He was the father of the little girl who got mobbed by dinosaurs on the island at the start of Jurassic Park 2, hard to recognise without all the prosthetics though

He is best remembered for 4 episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer where he played the antagonist Ethan Rayne

You've got to love how, at the end, when Sarris is shooting everyone he doesn't shoot Guy.

the joke throughout the whole movie is that Guy is expendable and is going to get killed, then when everyone is getting shot by Sarris towards the end, Guy is the only one not getting shot :p

I'm glad someone else has seen and enjoyed Just Shoot Me!. Monk wasn't an alien, he was high all the time. He carried a munchie bag the whole film. That's why he was so chill. Also, everytime someone said his name... Chen... he squinted his eyes to be "asian". In the movie (around 29:00 here) Guy asks Chen if he's high. At the end when Sarris is shooting everyone, Guy is the only one who _doesn't_ get shot. 28:10 the aliens are bug-like, so the guy dying could be a joke of an insect splatting on the windshield. Anyone not familiar with tv shows from the 70s and 80s, countdown timers ALWAYS stopped on 0:01. This joke was well appreciated by me.

In Goldfinger it stopped at 007.

29:20 For the record, I want you to look at Sigourney's mouth when she says "Well, screw that!" Just look at it and notice how...she's not actually saying "Well, screw that!" Fun fact: She originally said, "Well, fuck that!" in that scene but had to dub over it later for ratings reasons.

Galaxy Quest is a cult classic. If you enjoyed it, you should check out Never Surrender: A Galaxy Quest Documentary from 2019.

For Sam Rockwell Confessions of a Dangerous Mind might be one of the most underappreciated movies of all time

Monk is not an alien, they just cut nearly every overt reference to the fact that he tokes up A LOT, along with almost every instance of cursing, to bring it down from an R-rating.

When he is first transported to the ship you can see smoke drifting out of his "cocoon".

" He shit himself" The actor's aren't used to the sound effects - they're put in after the filming. The guys who put in sounf effects had to tell Brent Spiner (Data in TNG) to stop touching the screen so many times because they have to put in a bleep everytime he does it. "Could you make it 3 instead of 7? You're making our job harder."

Sigourney's character has nothing to do with Barbarella. There was a deleted scene, where she entices one of the guards into a trap. That's why her uniform is messed up. Also, originally, Tommy was forced to back up, when he hits the wall of the space station. That's why the physics of the Protector II's escape from spacedock don't quite make sense.

Yayyy you stay watching some great classic comedies I love it. Btw that dessert with all the little monsters was filmed in Goblin Valley in Utah in the US. The rocks really look like that! It’s such a unique geological form.

19:55 No, he's just stoned. Didn't notice he always has the munchies?

The sequel would require a re-cast of Alan Rickman and no one wants to do that still

That's not just a transportation mode...it is the Tim the Tool Man Jello Mold.

I paraphrased that line for two guys watching Star Trek: TNG for the first time. They love Chief O'Brien. "Guys, you do realize he might not make it to the end of the series." - O"Brien: I'm going to die! Picard: You're not going to die." O'Brien: Really? Really? What's my first name? Picard: You have a first name. O'Brien: Okay. What is it? Picard: Ah.... ah............ O'Brien: Mommy!!! He does have a first name - they haven't gotten to that episode yet.

32:08 Yes, he’s the only one _not_ shot before the Omega 13 is activated.

As much as I now hate that they omitted the backstory of Tony Shalhoub being as high as a kite, or changed Sigourney Weaver's "well, fuck that!", I'm so glad I was able to watch this as a kid. I come from a family who adores Star Trek, so much so that I was named after a character from the earlier seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation. This movie made me love the franchise even more, and of course I've been referencing this movie here and there for the past 25 years.

@29:21 LOL - At the same time you said “What the f#uc!k” Sigourney Weaver was saying”F#ck that!” but it got dubbed to make the film PG

Omg, I love this movie so much! And the Thermians are the best movie aliens ever. 😀💜

The script originally called for the Fred character to be a big-time pothead, but the studio said no, as that would ensure an R rating, which would keep kids from buying tickets to see the film. So the director told Tony Shalhoub just to go ahead and play it as a pothead anyway, and the people they wanted to get it, would get it.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know it went that deep. A lot of reactors I have seen don't understand his character.

К сожалению, в этот фильм не вошла ещё одна очень смешная сцена, где погибший инопланетянин показывал Лазарусу сделанную специально для него комнату по образцу из сериала. Это просто шикарная сцена... Посмотрите удалённые сцены из этого фильма, я думаю, что Вам понравится и эта сцена и может быть какая-нибудь ещё. Мне там ещё одна сцена нравится. Я бы включила это в фильм.

I mostly recognize Sam Rockwell (Guy) as Justin Hammer from Iron Man 2

Sam Rockwell won Oscar for a great movie "3 billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri". The only better sci-fi comedy I know is an Indian movie "PK" (2014).

Such a spoof of Star trek. Great movie, Tim Allen losing his shirt fighting the rock monster is a parody of William Shatner always losing his shirt during fights as captain Kirk. Alan Rickman steals this movie, just like anything he's in lol

One of my favorite movies! So funny, but I get fully invested. I always tear up as they’re first moving the Protector away from the space dock - that’s is until the veering!

I’m sure you’ve been told this on Patreon but I’ll say anyway. This movie was much more of an adult oriented film, but the producers made them change it after filming to make it more family friendly. Both the characters of Sam Rockwell and Monk were high, that’s why Monk was relaxed and and Guy was freaking out. There was a lot more cursing as well, including the infamous “fuck that” that was overdubbed to “screw that” by Weaver. And of course someone already commented the reason why Weaver’s shirt was completely open at the end. But yea, that was reference anyway.

Sam ROCKWELL WAS IN THE GREEN MILE.....

Actually the character of Tony Shalhoub was written in as a stoner originally but because the wanted it to be family friendly they kept the attitude in but never referred to it physically

Definitely need to check out Sam Rockwell's films!

If you're looking to watch more Sam Rockwell, I'd suggest 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri. Much more Rockwell than The Green Mile.

Yes, I’m so happy you did this one! I saw this as a kid and liked it, but when I rewatched it as an adult, I fell in love with it! Definitely one of my favorite comfort movies now. Also, I’m glad I’m not the only one who immediately calls out Enrico Colantoni as Elliot from Just Shoot Me lmao. I don’t remember anything about that show because I was really young when it was on, but that cast really stuck in my mind for some reason 😂 P.S. If you want a great Sam Rockwell film, check out Moon! It’s a fantastic sci-fi movie by David Bowie’s son, Duncan Jones.

They started filming this as an R Rated movie. Tony Shaloub's character was supposed to be a Stoner. Sigourney says the F word which was dubbed over (when they encounter the Hallway of death). They decided to make it into a PG film to get a larger audience and because of pressure from Disney as he was their Santa Claus. Apparently they are still discussing a sequel. Rumor has it that Benedict Cumberbatch will replace Alan Rickman. Cumberbatch does a perfect imitation of Rickman.

"Monk" is stoned. All the time. That's why he's always so chill and hungry.

Dude, you have to watch Star Trek!

Sigourney's shirt becoming less present when they reach the blue button was due to a scene they cut out of the final film - She has to 'seduce' one of the guards to get past them into the room with the button. I think it was just looked at as too much of a silly break in the tension, so they got rid of it, but they'd already filmed her with her suit half unzipped.

What's great is on old shows people's uniforms would suddenly be ripped more later on that I thought they did that to her to follow the making fun of everything. It made sense she looked like that without any explanation. I never questioned it lol😂

Sam Rockwell was in The Green Mile.

Sam Rockwell is a fantastic actor. He’s a chameleon. Some of my favorite films he’s in: Mr. Right, Laggies, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and Woman Walks Ahead (he’s such an awful character, but a beautiful story). This movie is a favorite sci-fi adventure that I have loved since 1999. Such a star studded cast for it to not be more widely known.
