We had lunch with Sigourney [Weaver] who was telling us that there actually used to be an R-rated version of that movie which was awesome. It was the director’s cut and it was R-rated and everybody was swearing and there were sex scenes, and the whole thing. They didn’t know what to do with it, so they had to re-edit the whole thing and made it what it is today. We were like, ‘How do we get our hands on the R-rated version of Galaxy Quest?’ She said ‘I don’t know!’ and we were like, ‘Come on, Sigourney!’

While I have some reservations about an R-rated version of this movie, I am incredibly intrigued by the idea of a new version of GALAXY QUEST as it is one of my favorite movies of all time!
In the “chompers” scene Weaver’s character says “Well screw that!” which any amateur lip reader can tell you is not at all what she is really saying. Her actual spoken dialog which is overdubbed with “Well screw that” is “Well fuck that!” further lending credence to the talk of an R-rated version of the film.

This is great news! Now I’m one step closer to fighting the queen from ALIENS like Sigourney Weaver!

GALAXY QUEST did great on Rottentomatoes.com, did a respectable box office of around $90 million and yet it seems hardly anyone has seen this movie? I for one love this movie and have watched it more times than I can count. I really think this is one of the most under appreciated movies ever and if you haven’t seen it you should fucking rent it right now or Netflix it or itunes it or whatever cause its epically funny and a solid movie from start to finish. If you’re a sci-fi fan you have no excuse for not seeing this and loving it. Hell its even got the guy who made Dragoncon pissing in a urinal in the bathroom scene!
Tim Allen! Sigourney Weaver! Allen Rickman! Sam Rockwell! Tony Shalhoub! Seriously what more do you want from a movie? A fucking rock monster?! Cause they have that too!
