Plus, dude blew up the earth.

Maybe in the place of one of the spoof captains I might toss in Taylor from Planet of the Apes. If we’re considering Tom Hanks a space captain I think Heston should rank.

Fun list!

No love for Serenity’s Mal Reynolds? For shame! And how about some old school love for Leslie Nielsen for Forbidden Planet?

That’s a pretty big Star Trek/Star Wars ratio to everything else (especially when you count Spaceballs and Galaxy Quest).

Not sure Navigator fits the list as Joey’s not really the captain (he’s actually a kidnapped kid). However, if you want a captain from a live-action Disney movie how about Zunar-J-5/9 Doric-4-7, or Jake for short, from The Cat From Outer Space?
