If one goes to the trouble of making a 40-year-old sequel to Mel Brooks’ frightfully funny spoof Spaceballs, one ought to, at the very least, accommodate the comedy legend for his scenes. It’s only polite. Happily, such courtesy was present during production of director Josh Greenbaum’s follow-up, Spaceballs: The New One.
