I keep glancing at and I have no clue how people got from one place to another. She's on a planet now, and who the hell is this woman in exploitative garb?

So many careers blossomed from this classic. Like a mushroom cloud.

The camera relocates to a giant square claw, where a space emperor has court. We learn the survivor was brain damaged so they didn't learn anything from him. The emperor tells some golems to do something. Then a judge in an orb that looks like a metallic Donald Trump mated with a squid sentences the boy and girl smugglers to harsh labor, on I think different planets.

He's dehydraded and you don't seem to be doing anything about that... Must be an American healtcare system ship.

"Don't worry, Mr. Plummer, you saw how acclaimed other classically trained actors were when they appeared in that silly Star Wars movie, right?"

It's clear that Christopher Plummer soaked up ALL of the budget here

I’ve never heard of it, but I’m sure this must be a fabulous movie.

@nazokiyoubinbou you're assuming the Count ever made any plans more than 5 seconds in advance

I mean he didn't even have standing orders for "if enemy ship is approaching, then shoot" he had to command all that manually #monsterdon

This reminds me. Why is it in scifi movies people can just like... watch what is going on in the enemy's ship? But they can't watch plans being made or anything like that of course.

Like it's pretty much just "put on channel 52 so we can watch the battle please."

Wow, watching the deleted scenes stream and wow that Not-Star Wars style text goes fast! I'm a very fast reader and I can't keep up!

No wonder they deleted that!

@cainmark Kids on a playground:

"And then I get you caught in a machine. You can't get out! You're stuck so I win!"

"Oh yeah? Well I use my eye laser beams to send you flying backwards and get free!"

"Oh yeah? Well I use my SUPER DEATH RAY to shoot you. No one can survive a death ray!"

"Nu uh. I can. I just bounce them back at you and you die instead!"

"ARG!! I QUIT. This is stupid!"

"Haha, I win!"

At least this movie didn't burned "The Hoff" carrer and he got to act in movies like "Click" and the first "Spongebob Squarepants" movie.

I liked a lot of the costuming and set designs of "Starcrash".

It really sounded like three little boys on a playground making up everything as they went, continuity and purpose and scientific logic be damned. Which could be interesting to listen to. But definitely not to watch. Commentary made it fun.

I can absolutely see a lot of this movie being used in the animated show "Futurama", though.
