Yes, and I still love it just fine. I don't get the hate for it at all. You give Spaceballs a pass, but not Ghostbusters. Mkay, each his own.

Some movies don't age as well as others, for any number of reasons. Easy Rider comes immediately to mind. It doesn't mean that they weren't good movies.

I watch the original Ghostbusters fairly often. And I think it absolutely holds up. I love the shit out of that movie.

Spaceballs is also still a ton of fun.

What.? You got a refund because you didn't like a movie?

I can see both sides. A lot of the affection for the movie is about how cool the stars were as comic actors and a specific comedic sensibility the movie cultivated.

Its humor is very subjective, perhaps moreso than other movies.

Doesn't mean you're wrong for thinking it's a timeless classic
Doesn't mean you're wrong for thinking it's a relic of the era.

Money back on two gift cards to see another movie of our choosing. It's not like we watched the whole thing and got it lol.

Hence my confused post lol.

At the local Harkins theater here they'll give you passes to whatever you want to see if you inform them within an hour of the movie of your displeasure. Not sure if that's everywhere but they do it here. We weren't gonna sit through that garbage.

Wow. You think Spaceballs holds up but Ghostbusters doesn't?

No accounting for taste, I suppose.

Spaceballs was Mel Brooks at his worst. Had you gone with Young Frankenstein or Blazing Saddles, I'd at least understand your point. I'd disagree (Ghostbusters is still good), but I'd at least see where you're coming from.

But man, Spaceballs?
