This is one of those examples of genuinely good reference humor, because IMHO it works even if you don't get it -- like a lot of us did, seeing Spaceballs when we were too young for Alien.

(I mistakenly thought that if I can handle this spoof scene then I can handle the original film) Bought the DVD and spent that night from the opening titles to end credits hidden behind a couch cushion. To this day I regret nothing. The fact John Hurt came back just to film this short cameo scene is nothing short of perfection. I remember reading in a booklet that came with my copy of Spaceballs that John Hurt said the fake chest for this film was much more comfortable than the one used in the original Alien.

Despite that milestone in my life, the Alien movie was on what used to be the ABC Sunday Night Movie recorded on VHS via VCR at my High School alma mater, and I watched it with my other friends. Hence the first ever day I fell in love with the Alien franchise. I am, rest assured, a foremost fan of science fiction.

Me: One Spoof Parody Of Alien By 20th Century Fox & One Parody Of Classic Warner Bros Cartoons Looney Tunes

That was nice of the restaurant to build a tiny little door on the counter just incase a dancing musical alien need to use it :3

@Wayne Flanigan No its actually for Aliens, they were made in the early 4350s 4360s...never seen a SCI FI diner before?

Funny, I loved this movie as a kid. But, 28 years later I never realized this whole seen was so accurate to aliens and the cameo! Awesome!

One of the best scene`s ever, the very first time we all saw this, we couldn't stop laughing for over 1/2 an hr.

I love how the Millennium Falcon is parked in the Diner parking lot. 😂

Are there any other recognizable space crafts? That's the only one I recognized.

I was 14 and I loved this movie. And Goonies

The comedy on top is the looks of pure "NOPE" from everyone involved.

When I was a kid, this was my favorite scene. Me and my brother would be laughing like crazy.

I love Spaceballs, but my favorite scene was when they went to ludicrous speed.

i almost died the first time seeing this

If you watch this scene with zero context of Alien, it's still horrifying. I saw Spaceballs for the first time with a group of friends & I got most of the other references, but I had no prior knowledge of Alien, so when THIS scene happened, I was both confused & terrified.

Its so sad they don’t make these type of movies anymore because they are hilarious compared to most modern day movies

Most modern day movies are sad parodies of better movies from the past.

6 people had the space special!

I have seen this about a million times and it still makes me laugh hysterically. I don't know if it's the dancing or that little hat or both. Thanks Mel !

I love how the millennium falcon is chilling in the back at 0:06 even tho this movie is meant to make fun of Star Wars

The fact that John Hurt was also in Alien makes this scene 10x funnier.

I haven’t seen Alien but the “Not again!” reminded me of that scene from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

The whale! 🤣

"Well if it isn't lone star...and his sidekick puke". Great film.

We took these movies for granted.

The way she says "soup" is super cute

Saw this when it came out. See it a few times since then. After all these years finally noticed the Millennium Falcon.

One of my favorite Mel Brooks films.

John Hurt could never enjoy a meal without an alien bursting out of his chest.

I never noticed the whole crew of the Nostromo was recreated.

0:04 You can see the Millennium Falcon in the parking lot on the right side.

After reading this, I double-checked the scene again. Good job. Also, inside the diner, the counter contained a "Spaceballs, the Placemat" placemat. 😎

Haven't seen this in years but it brought back the laughs...what a great movie.

This really is a classic!! It is just simply brilliant!! One of Mel's best, next to Blazing Saddles!!! Everything about this film screams classic!!!

Good to see John again. Never could control his tail.

I saw Alien like years before I saw this scene. When I saw this scene; me, and my dad were laughing for days. Espcially since we both love the Looney Tunes song that the Alien sings.

Fun fact that the song the alien sings is hello my baby. The song was sung by Bill Roberts, who voiced Michigan j frog and the alien.

Only just noticed the "Spaceballs: The Placemat"

FYI, that IS the Millennium Falcon. Brooks put it in there just to see if anyone would notice.

one of the best movies ever created

I love that it was John Hurt and I love he said “oh no not again” if I only waited Space Balls when I was younger I’d probably wouldn’t of have been traumatized for a decade…

It's funny that John Hurt and the people are dressed the same from the 1st alien movie I find it so funny how he say's oh no not again I even saw the 1st alien movie before I saw spaceballs.

Spaceballs, released in theatres in 1987, on VHS in 1988. All happened in the last years of the Iron Curtain. VHS players were slowly coming into my country from the West, and pirate dubbed pirate copies of Hollywood movies ended up in households way before they might've appear in theatres. So we've seen Spaceballs and the "pirated copy" scene - through a pirated copy.
