while i love the hell out of her for being the fist real action star hero, never thought she was very attractive till this role.




If I'm not mistaken, she commented on that aspect saying "Being blond with a push-up bra had that effect on many people".

Funniest part of the movie to me, even though it wasn’t planned that way it works perfectly in the context of the movie

Jamie Lee Curtis is a prime example of a "Butterface".

Smoking hot body BUT from the neck up rather MEH....although she's shown herself to be a very level-headed person and is now embracing the fact she's getting older and the hair actually turns gray, wrinkles happen and gravity is truth.

I wouldn't say Butterface as much as I would say average. She looks like an average woman, not beautiful but not ugly.

I hadn't seen it until recently and loved it.

They either did a bad job promoting it or I just wasn't paying attention when it came out. I remember thinking that it looked like some dumb kids version of star trek, but it was not that at all. It's style of comedy was right in my wheelhouse when it came out (and today).

I think maybe it's a hidden gem.
There is literally a documentary about Galaxy Quest.

Btw, whoever was the casting director deserves an honorary Oscar.

Every different piece of the character puzzle fits.

When I first saw it, was flabbergasted they pulled this goof/spoof off.

Then after a few viewings, realized they hit a home run....that is timeless.

I won't say that stupid line again!

Then they pull this on us



I can't praise this movie enough

ETA: Alan Rickman was gone way too soon.

ETA2: I love the story of Tim Allen becoming emotional when confessing to Mathezar that he lied to them and Alan Rickman said something along the lines of "I think he just discovered acting"

And well deserved for all the reasons posters have stated.

Galaxy Quest is akin to The Princess Bride, as in, you have to be a terrible person to not enjoy it.
