  3. This morning, Child.0 and Partner were getting ready to leave for school. I walked into the kitchen. Child.0 looked up at me but didn't say anything as they were telling Partner something. So, naturally I spoke up.

    Child.0 jumped. "How are you so quiet?"

    Me: "You looked straight at me."

    C.0: "I didn't see you."

    Me: "I was clearly using the Mak'tar stealth haze."

    C.0: "What's that?"

    And that, my friends, is when I had realized I had utterly failed to be a parent. A fifteen year old who didn't know what a stealth haze was or Mak'tar? I should just give up.

    Partner, on the other hand, knew exactly what I was talking about it.

    Which is why I'm thankful every day they married me.

  4. ""On paper, it was a Star Trek parody. It turned into a cult classic so beloved it was voted in 2013 by Trekers as the seventh greatest #StarTrek film ever made.

    But what makes #GalaxyQuest brilliant isn't just the premise or the jokes or how well it respects the genre that it satarizes or the fandom that it exposes.

    It's the characters from the top down. From the geniusly ironic casting of Sigourney Weaver, […] To Enrico Clinton, who single-handedly invented the characterization of an entire alien race […] ""

  5. Need mindcandy, so I'm rewatching Galaxy Quest for the umpteenth time. Love the homage to the ending of Blake's 7 towards the end of the movie. If you know, you know ; )

  6. Spent the last two hours of 2025 watching #GalaxyQuest, the perfect #NewYears movie. Somehow my sister-in-law had never seen it, and was highly entertained!

    “I wish they put out a director’s cut of the movie because, at the last minute, DreamWorks decided to release the movie with some of the more sophisticated scenes cut that Alan was in because it needed a kids’ movie to go up against [Columbia Pictures’] Stuart Little. And why they don’t put out the movie again with more of his very, very strange and wonderful scenes?” 📀

  12. In #GalaxyQuest there’s a little gag about “go through the chompy crushie things.” It’s clearly a detail from an episode where nobody had a name for that scene. Sigourney Weaver’s character says “This episode was badly written!”

    Star Wars Episode 2 has an entire pointless scene of chompy, crushie things. It literally looks like it was shot just to serve as the basis for a level in the corresponding video game.

    R2-D2 reveals that he is part cat, by fucking pushing C3PO off a ledge into the chompy crushie things for no reason. C3PO nearly gets destroyed, his head gets stuck on a Roger Roger droid’s body. And then, what? They’re best buds again and they’re gonna go on space adventures for a couple more lifetimes?

  14. Not a Thanksgiving person, not in a Thanksgiving country, so thinking of using #Comedon 's hiatus tomorrow as a chance to catch up on some classic #ComedyMovies I missed (Priscilla, Queen of the Desert? #GalaxyQuest?)

    Tempted to tag it #ComedonOfTheThankless 😄 (or maybe just #ComedonCatchup)

  15. Galaxy Quest has a special features spot on dvd.

    One feature is they did the entire length of the movie in Thermian speaking overlay. Went to a few favorite spots to see how they dubbed it, and those yielded some giggles.

    Best part was when she was standing at the chompers, in the original movie they dubbed 'Screw that' to stay PG, though that's not what was originally filmed. In the Thermian special feature version, it actually said the original (when filmed) line, but in a Thermian-ish way.

    They couldn't resist fun any step of the way, it really shows. Their devotion to playfulness is my idea of perfection.

    Best. Movie. EVER.

  22. @SynAck I def mostly agree with that, especially the first time I watched it - I bailed after a few eps thinking “this (i.e. Seth) doesn’t know if it wants to be earnest #StarTrek homage or #FamilyGuy in Space”… but I went back to it about a year later & gave it another try

    all those issues are still there, but in the end I really enjoyed having something new & Trek-ish to watch that leaned into the funny a little, but also managed the occasional deft turn into pathos (I find that some of the best comedians are very adept at funny… funny… funny… oh crap, they just ripped my heart out!! 😭)

    ultimately, I made my peace with it as Seth MacFarlane’s very naked, heart-on-his-sleeve love letter to Star Trek (and #crooners, and #MovieMusicals / #MusicalTheatre…)

    maybe the fact that we’ve had #LowerDecks has shifted the Overton window for Trek being more overtly funny? (although of course humour has always been in the mix, right from the #TOS days)

    anyway, for me it goes solidly into the Star Trek fan pantheon (“#fantheon”? 🤔) on whose throne firmly sits #GalaxyQuest 💁‍♀️ I def won’t be sad if it gets a fourth season (or more)
