    I laugh at about 95% of the jokes in GQ even though I've watched it many times over the years and like it more than most Trek movies. But if you put a gun at my head, I couldn't tell you anything about Mystery Men even though I know I watched the movie once. Not the plot, not a line of dialog, not a single gag. Different strokes for different folks.

          Mystery Men? Really? You compare Galaxy Quest to Mystery Men? If you didn't even laugh at Guy's line about air on an alien planet, you need to take your sense of humor into the shop. It's clearly broken.
          Besides nostalgia from 90's kids (which I am), what do people love so much about this GQ?
          This wasn't for 90s kids. This was for Star Trek fans. Specifically classic Trek.

            Super overrated if you ask me. I saw it when it first released in 1999 and several times since then. I give it a 6.5

              If you didn't care for it, why did you watch it several times?

                Because it's on TV a lot and it's something to watch?

                  I think it is one of those movies that if I try to explain why I thought it was funny it just would have no purpose. You either enjoy this kind of humor or you don't. When I first saw it I just loved every second of it. So many memorable little moments and quotable lines.

                    The appeal is Weaver's cleavage. It starts and ends with that.

                      Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better but the frog dies in the process. - E.B. White

                        GQ is heads and above MM. And I've never seen Fanboys nor care to.
