TVs Ian posted:I do wish there were a “Director’s Cut” version available. Full version of This Island Earth, the cut storm shelter scene and original ending, the original riffs in place, the theme song, etc. First time I saw The Movie was wonderful because it had an extra audio track of my dad in the background complaining that TIE was one of his favorite movies and they were leaving out the good parts.

I had to queue this up and watch. It's still so so funny. A couple dated topical jokes*, but less than I expected. * - "John Sinunu goes for a haircut" and "Ladies and Gentlemen, A Flock of Seagulls!"

I liked MST3K the Movie, but I'm of the opinion that it really didn't need to be made (well, apart from their experience making it being what inspired the wonderful "Crow's Movie" host segments during Incredible Melting Man).

Fighting Trousers posted:Servo bursting out "What kind of shithole planet is this?!" never fails to make me laugh. If I remember the story correctly, the movie was in danger of receiving a G rating, so they threw in that line (and also "Whoop-de-poo poo.") to bump it up to PG.

WeaponX posted:https://youtu.be/a57o1cfahKk The Movie was formative in my sense of humor's development. I had never seen the show before (our cable company didn't get Comedy Central), but I had read about it on the Internet, so I rented it from Blockbuster on a Friday night after school; I was 12 years old. I found it so funny I convinced my old man to watch it with me the next morning. "Breach hull, all die, even had it underlined!"

This is a good one that I've overlooked till now. It usually comes on auto play on YouTube while i fall asleep watching mst3k. It's got some good running jokes, great shorts, and I'm fond of the "rainy day ipecac" invention exchange. Teenage Caveman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3qoqkKCK3M

Teenage Caveman is "the episode with Catching Trouble" in the way War of the Colossal Beast is "the episode with Mr. B Natural", but I still really like it as a whole. Of the very few episodes where they did more than one short, The Unearthly is definitely my favorite, though.

Mr. Meat & Potato Head is fine (although special shout out to Frank's "Stuffing instead of potatoes - honey, I LOVE you!") I always come back to the handy gadget to lock in your pop star's freshness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R88T3ZHbvDM Mike as Morrissey is still uncanny.

So i dunno if this was already mentioned in here but the twitch stream for mst3k and rifftrax is a lot of fun. There's a live chat and they show stuff from The Film Crew too, the short lived show with mike bill and kevin riffing on movies. The live chat is fun! I'm mayhay89 if anyone is on there and sees me cracking wise.

I'm mayhay89 if anyone is on there and sees me cracking wise. I'm surprised at how consistently chill it is. Once in a blue moon you'll get somebody complaining about a Mary Jo and Bridget riff or trying Joel v. Mike but the mods smack it down quick and I haven't seen it happen in ages. For a while there was a guy who tried to make fun of the Troll 2 riff but we started making fun of him and he never came back.

My experience with the Twitch page is that it's 98% ads, and they always manage to interrupt in the middle of a good riff, so I just watch the Pluto channel instead.

I’ve been pretty pleased that alone among 90s nostalgia things, mst3k switched to having a woman be the lead and nobody has complained or made a dumb petition or tried to chase her off twitter. I’m not surprised, as mst3k fans are generally pretty chill and decent.
