Dreams I Shouldn't Have, But Do

Remember my post about Sparkplugs: The Swindle? Had another one of the dreams last night. Same filmmakers. They made a parody prequel of Spaceballs titled Spaceballs - (Minus) : The Menace Attacks Revenge...basically doing the lampoon job Spaceballs did on the initial Star Wars movies for the prequel trilogy.
It was about the child who would grow up to become Dark Helmet, of course. The main sequence in the first reel was a demolition derby, and Dark Helmet was sore that as the only surviving driver, he wasn't declared the winner...only problem was that all the officials, most of the spectators, all of the media and all of the citizens of the spaceport hosting the event were killed off in the derby's collateral damage. I gave up on watching the rest because 1) I never SAW Spaceballs; 2) I haven't seen most of the Star Wars prequels.
PS: In my travels today I went to a flea-market I know. At the zone that sells action figures, old video game cartridges and comic books, they had a replica of the Assault Rifle/pegleg from Grindhouse. As bizarre as I thought it was I thought "I bet my Facebook buddy Paul already has one."
