    So is scientology Spaceballs? Or Galaxy Quest? I suggest the second one because it’s a riff of Star Trek and… well, I don’t know WHAT scientology is trying to rip off.

      Scientology is like if they started selling MLM merch.

      Hubbard more or less said “if you want to get rich, start a religion.”

      I think Scientology was its own thing but the production company realized that if they could attach it to a known brand it would have a bigger audience.

      Like Lawnmowerman, The Joker, Starship Troopers.
