SPACEBALLS / SLEEPER

The continued excitement about Star Wars got us thinking about the classic spoof movie Spaceballs and that got us thinking about a great sci-fi satire that you probably haven’t seen, Sleeper! SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/9AGRm

Both films fall into the sic-fi comedy genre and both use comedy stylings of bygone eras. While Spaceballs is a straight spoof of Star Wars with references to consumerism and other aspects of society, Sleeper is a social commentary told in a way that doesn’t directly call out the audience for issues that could someday lead to a society that barely functions.

In Woody Allen’s 1973 satire, Sleeper, a health food store owner is cryogenically frozen and thawed out 200 years later where he awakes to an incompetently run dystopia. We follow him on his adventures in this strange future where he is now stuck.

Have you seen Sleeper? Are you a fan of Spacebars? What do you think are the best sci-fi comedies?
