Join us as we dive into Galaxy Quest (1999), the cult sci-fi comedy released on December 25, 1999. Directed by Dean Parisot, this beloved film stars Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, and Sam Rockwell. Galaxy Quest hilariously follows a group of washed-up actors from a defunct TV show who are mistaken for real space heroes by aliens in need of help. In this episode, we explore the film’s clever satire, its impact on sci-fi culture, and why it continues to resonate with fans.
