It's like woke spaceballs.

I'm definitely not going to stop watching, secure in the knowledge I gave Disney $0 for this.

Oh man. Will Mel Brooks have the strength to resist the woke mob?

Just don’t make it’s. Period.

Yeah - this is a pretty awful idea.

And Brooks without Gene Wilder has more misses than hits anyway. Spaceballs is his best and it's still well behind Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein and The Producers, IMO.

This is not gonna go well. Brooks has flat out said he couldn't do most of what he did in the 70s today. I don't expect he'll even try. It's fertile soil that he's gonna end up salting. I hope this falls through. Mel doesn't have much time left and any project could be his last. I'd hate to see it be some watered down quasi-reboot. Especially when it's going to be Josh Gadd likely going a bad John Candy impression.

Let’s be frank, Rick Moranis made Spaceballs.

It was ok in the scenes he wasn’t in, but hilarious the scenes he was in.

A gaggle of lesbian space witches extolling the virtues of 'the power of many' no less!

And the GOT universe is loaded with strong female characters; HOTD even moreso. Hell, HOTD isn't even loaded with unnecessary female nudity and guys still enjoy it.

Just make something good, dammit. And don't TELL everyone that this is a story about powerful women and diversity - just do it. Make the story. And if you don't beat people over the head with it, they won't get riled up about it.

The list of successful efforts at this is pretty damn long. And NONE of them have every major voice out there publicizing how excited they are to piss off white males with this one...

It reminds me of when I listen to some of my pro wrestling podcasts. They talk about character development and how the announcers will sometimes call the wrestlers "charismatic" or "powerful", etc. If they are charismatic or powerful you'll see it in the work. There's no need to TELL the audience that and doing so signals that the character is a complete failure.

Oh for fuck's sake, the original is overrated. This thing doesn't stand a chance.

Brooks turns 98 later this week. I seriously question his level of involvement in, well, pretty much anything at this point.

In keeping with the aforementioned GoT comparison -
