Captain Lone Starr
for Captain Lone Starr in Spaceballs: The Monty Python Edition
Suggested by ltathena

Princess Vespa, the bold, bossy and beautiful heir to the throne of planet Druidia, is fleeing her intended marriage to the painfully dull Prince Valium, the only eligible bachelor prince in her region of space. Unfortunately, Vespa and her robot servant Dot Matrix acquire the attention of the Spaceballs, a group of spacefaring evildoers led by Dark Helmet and Prime Minister Skroob who plan to seize Vespa and hold her hostage in exchange for access to Druidia's oxygen in order to drain it away and use it to replenish their home world's own thinning atmosphere. All hope lies with two rogues-for-hire: Lone Starr and Barf the Mawg , who hope to use the substantial reward offered by Vespa's father to pay off their debt to crime boss Pizza the Hutt. With a little help from wise-cracking mystic Master Yogurt, Lone Starr fights to save Planet Druidia, defeat the Spaceballs, and maybe get the girl, too.
