Do you find something comical about my appearance when I'm driving my automobile?
But it does have the guy who, for whatever reason, was staying in the hallway.

Oh boy. I didn’t know Fatty Arbuckle was still going in those days. (And he wasn’t at all the worst of it. I liked him.)

Really? I recall an interview with the director was very hurt that they mocked him, personally, at the end.

Fake edit: He's wasn't that salty about it: http://www.badmovies.org/interviews/ricksloane/

quote:

Hobgoblins was another story; that movie was made very early in my career. It was never one of my favorite films. I laughed through the entire MST3K episode, until the very end. I wasn't expecting the humor to suddenly be at my own expense. I was mortified when they dragged out the cardboard cutout and pretended to do an interview with me. I was caught off guard. I had never seen them rip apart any other director before on the show.

But in the long run, that was what made the movie famous. There would have never been a Hobgoblins 2 without MST3K and I hope one of their incarnations decides to riff on the sequel. It won't be the same without it. As I was editing Hobgoblins 2, I could almost guess some of the jokes they would insert. I even named the production company, Halfway 2 Sanity, which I'm sure will not go unnoticed.

The guy who played JK Robertson in Time Chasers, though, he's my favorite example of someone completely not able to take a joke. He was incredibly offended anyone would mock a distinguished actor like himself (no, really).

Was It JK's actor who had the problem? I thought it was Matt's actor (a.k.a. Pink Boy a.k.a. Michael Medved).

The Hobgoblins Director was super salty about it, haha. He changed his tune a little bit later because it really did make the movie enough of a thing that he made the sequel, and he's basically begging them to riff on Hobgoblins 2.

He should have been cool like the director for parts: the clonus horror. You can see it on the Shout! DVD release. He was grateful to Msties for coming to his defense when he sued the makers of The Island.

Though he was puzzled by them shouting 'Biography!' in said defense.

Has Not Actually Done Cocaine
watching The Beast of Yucca Flats episode, man the previous two Coleman Francis films they did must have been absolutely atrocious for them to react so negatively upon finding out they'd be doing a third one, also this must have been one of the shortest movies MST3K ever did considering they had to put two shorts in to meet the episode's required length

funny thing is this will be the first time I've ever watched this movie even though I've owned a DVD copy of the non-MST3K version since around 2005(as part of an 8 pack that also has Bowery At Midnight, Beast From Haunted Cave, Condemned To Live, Creature From The Haunted Sea, The Corpse Vanishes, Giant From The Unknown, and The Monster Maker)

Yeah, Beast of Yucca Flats had earned it's scorn. Also you'll notice the Coleman Francis hallmarks in the other two (mostly light planes, confusion, and despair).
Possibly the longest short movie ever. Flag on the Moon.

Beast From Haunted Cave would have made a decent episode. Hateful, stupid characters, terrible monster, nonsensical plot, but still has that Corman magic. Also they can cut about a half hour of skiing and chairlift-riding.

I did a Donald Pleasence double feature - Puma Man, and Warrior of the Lost World. I still can't decide which one had the worst protagonist.

Warrior of the Lost World. Puma Man at least has a character arc.

the running time for beast of yucca flats is under an hour and it doesn't even have recorded sound. francis didn't have a mic to record any dialogue which is why it's all shouted from offscreen or narrated. it is barely a movie

This probably explains why he padded out his next two movies with a whole lot of goddamn nothing going on. And smoking, and coffee, and sexual assault, and parachuting, and more light aircraft, and extended music/dance party sequences, and people shooting from light aircraft, etc.
