I get to interview at least one and perhaps up to four or five members of Cinematic Titanic tomorrow afternoon!

Going to try very very very hard not to be starstruck.

No I'm not jealous. (I SO lie.)

What? I'm not sweating!

(runs in circles, pees on floor)

That is cool. I got to meet Bill Corbett a couple of weeks ago and am still impressed by how funny and nice he was.

How neat! He seems like he'd be pretty chill in general.

The new Gamera box set is a total treat of course, but that goes without saying. Next box up, along with bonus features:

Time of the Apes
extras:
INTRODUCTION BY AUGUST RAGONE (Author of Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters)
MST HOUR WRAPS

Mighty Jack
extras:
INTRODUCTION BY AUGUST RAGONE
THE DVD MENUS OF MST3K

The Violent Years
extras:
ED-UCATION: ARCHIVAL INTERVIEW WITH DELORES FULLER
ED-UCATION: ARCHIVAL INTERVIEW WITH KATHY WOOD

The Brute Man
extras:
INTRODUCTION BY MARY JO PEHL
TRAIL OF THE CREEPER: MAKING THE BRUTE MAN
THE MAKING OF MST3K (1997)

All great in different, insane ways.

Interview was fantastic, other than me fighting like hell not to come off like a fanboy.

First CInematic Titanic experience was pretty awesome. Especially the three bro-ey gay dudes in what appeared to be a Jules et Jim situation were making out two rows in front of me.

Brilliant. What was the movie, anyway?

Doomsday Machine ... so bad it took two movie crews to ruin it.

Casey Kasem ...
Mission Control Officer

Well I'm sold.

Oh, I lost count of the AT40-based jokes after they passed, well, the top 40.

apropos to nothing:

Been watching a lot of eps lately after discovering how many of them are on instant streaming

if Paulie Walnuts is an MST3K fan*, maybe he can put in a good work for the boys the next time he does the USO thing with Sandy Frank.

(* - something tells me he isn't, but wouldn't it be wonderful if he was?!?)

Just started watching The Rebel Set and so far it's much more entertaining than I'd expected. "Enough money to forget that you can't act." - "Hey, you're in this movie too, buddy."

Was just about to bump this thread to observe: I forgot to wear a bra.

Mannnnnn, Rebel Set, what a bad movie! I mean I know that's the show's whole thing but that was one of the more shapeless and underplotted things I've seen on there.

OH MY GOD monster a-go-go

like seriously wow, what did i just watch

Hahaha.

"Brrrrt."

"...I don't believe it."

This really was the worst movie. At least Manos, Red Zone Cuba, Creeping Terror, etc had unintended camp/clumsiness.
Watching Monster A Go Go is like discovering credit card fraud in your account.

I laughed so hard at that ending.

Ditto, I could barely hear the terrible narration over my own cackling.

"Yes, I made that phone noise."

omg - - gunslinger is blowing me away. The "hallway" gag just piles up higher and higher.

The two dudes at the beginning just sitting on the horses waiting for action to be called!

"And … cue horses!"
"Pffff . . . Corman."

BTW, Bill Corbett recently retweeted one of my tweets and it was the happiest day of my life. The end.

Yeah, wow, overall that was a pretty good episode. (I'm watching these in little bursts before bed every night, thanks to Netflix's motley collection of episodes.) Some classic material in there and the host segments were pretty high-quality, especially the one where Servo is warping time and space for some reason.

Working through Giant Gila Monster now and some bits are slaying me despite the film's fundamentally boring milieu and visual style. "So this whole town revolves around towing cars?"

Also love Joel's thing of doing the Gila Monster's voice whenever they cut away to it, since the monster is clearly an actual-sized gila monster and never seems to be sharing space with the characters, so he just treats him as this totally separate commentator walking on and making periodic gravelly remarks and then walking back off stage. "You wanna bet I get blamed for that even though I was nowhere close?"

And, after the disclaimer in the opening credits: "Aw, man, so the gila monster's fictitious, what a downer."

hahaha i love that someone has compiled this! Although the funniest part really was that just as you'd forgotten about this gag, ten minutes later in the movie it'd pop out again.

*drunkenly* "Come out!"

Found a bunc of mst3k streaming via Amazon Prime instant-watch

Watched Future War, that was O_o so bad

Watching Laserblast now...hilarious! The love scene made me cry from laughing so hard, loving it.

Still can't get over the scene with the aliens killing time in conversation with their superiors. "Uh, your move sir, you called us."

future war is one of my favorite mike episodes. the showdown in the church is so delightfully stupid.

Best running gag ever:

Mike Nelson: [the sheriff in Laserblast bears a striking resemblance to Hank Williams Jr] Look, are you READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?
Mike Nelson: Man, I've gotta go home and get READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!
Crow T. Robot: Let's find out of he's READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!
Mike Nelson: What do we got, another citizen who isn't READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!
Crow T. Robot: Anyway, all my rowdy friends are coming over later.
Crow T. Robot: I just feel like you're not ready for some football.
Tom Servo: Anything you say can be used to get you READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!
Tom Servo: I'm not ready for football anymore.
Tom Servo: [Sheriff is cracking open a Coke bottle] Hey, he knows how to use a Coke!
Mike Nelson: [In tune with old Coca-Cola jingle] I'd like to teach the world to GET READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!

Hahah I do love that.

Perhaps second only to, "Wooooo, Packers!"

Another brilliant gag from Laserblast -- Hank Williams Jr guy gets in car, Servo starts up a car honk noise.

My theory is that they had no idea if that was really going to be the last one so they went for broke throughout.

And the "PACKERS!!!" one was so insane, you could tell that was a bunch of Vikings fans letting out decades' worth of frustration.

And what the hey

My favorite thing about the "Packers!" gag is that it showed up in The Touch of Satan, in the scene in which The Giant Spider Invasion's Robert Easton shows up to conduct a witch-burning. ("Burn the witch!" "Packers! But mostly 'Burn the Witch!'")
