Rick Moranis has barely done any acting in the last 30 years but he made an appearance last week at CinemaCon to help promote his upcoming sequel to Spaceballs. Moranis helped raise an entire generation of moviegoers. I belong to that generation & deeply appreciate Moranis.

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids is another Rick Moranis movie that kind of helped define my childhood. I could quote this movie from start to finish. Back when owning Cable matter, this was on constantly. I’m glad Moranis is returning to acting with the Spaceballs sequel. He’s the best.

Mel Brooks directed Spaceballs in 1987 & it’s one of the best satires in Cinema history. Now, 40 years later, Brooks is going to star in a Spaceballs sequel that’s set to drop in April of 2027. The sequel will undoubtedly miss John Candy, but the fact Brooks is returning for the sequel & will be acting again is why I’m excited. That, and Rick Moranis is ending his acting hiatus.
