Spaceballs 2?

Wow, 3 posts in one day...amazing, but I had to include this when I saw it. Ain't it Cool News is reporting that Mel Brooks is writing a Spaceballs 2 (The Search for More Money...I wish!) to try to release it before Episode III. It doesn't seem likely that he could finish it befor May 19, 2005, but it's nice to know. Ain't it Cool News is known for publshing almost anything, like me, but check out the article below.

Brooks To Make Sequel to 'Spaceballs'

A day after announcing plans to film the movie version of his Broadway musical The Producers in New York, Mel Brooks is being quoted as saying that he is currently working on the script for a sequel to his 1987 Star Wars spoof Spaceballs that he would like to rush into production. Asked by Playbill magazine when the film is likely to hit the screen, Brooks replied: "Best case scenario: a week before the new Star Wars opens. Worst Case Scenario: a year after the new Star Wars opens." The new Star Wars movie, Revenge of the Sith, is due to open on May 19, 2005. Brooks also indicated that he will appear in the sequel (although, he said, he won't have a role in The Producers). "It wouldn't feel right to have anyone else play Yoghurt, and the first one was the best experience I've had making a movie since Blazing Saddles," he said.
