HOLD THE LINE TROPE MOVIE
And some fans consider it an honorary Star Trek film to begin with (especially because including it in the timeline helps keep the Star Trek Movie Curse straight). The film won the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, and the writers accepted the award almost in tears because they were so pleased that the Sci-Fi community "got it" - that the film was a valentine, not a sneer. This brilliant, loving parody of Star Trek ( with aspects of the film Three Amigos) hangs a lampshade on most of its tropes. They now have to play their roles for real, defeating an alien warlord with nothing more than mediocre acting skills. Instead, the actors find that they are the last hope of the Thermians, a race of naïve aliens fighting a losing war, who mistakenly believe that Galaxy Quest was actually a documentary. When the aliens ask him to pay a return visit, Jason ropes in the rest of the main cast, plus one Red Shirt, for what Jason believes will be more ego-boosting fun. He had been abducted by real aliens, and taken to a real spaceship, a perfect copy of the show's Protector, where he'd fought a real space battle. Only when the "film" is over does he realize that it was all real. One day, a hungover Jason is approached by what he believes to be a group of fans who want him to star in an amateur film. Only Jason Nesmith (played by Tim Allen), the egomaniac actor who played The Captain, is still enjoying himself - and the rest of the cast think he's a total jerk (again, very much like Star Trek). Eighteen years later, its washed-up stars are fixtures on the fan circuit, though most of them despise the show, its fans, and each other. In 1982, Galaxy Quest, a series very much like Star Trek, was cancelled.
