This week on Nice Ashes, Mike and Nate are lighting up the Montecristo Platinum Series Toro and taking a nostalgic trip through Mel Brooks' 1987 sci-fi comedy classic, Spaceballs. They discuss how the film holds up nearly four decades later, revisit its most memorable jokes and quotable lines, explore behind-the-scenes trivia—including George Lucas' surprising involvement—and compare it to other Mel Brooks classics like Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, and Robin Hood: Men in Tights. The conversation also expands into the current state of Hollywood, modern comedy, movie theaters, and why original storytelling seems harder to find today.
