I think Mike had that quiet, angry rant about his mom taking him to a shoe store opening instead of Woodstock, that was great.

One of my favorites is Mike talking about the time he went on a fun run or a hike and it is just filled with embarrassing details.

Also, the space children gave us the Satellite of Love TV show, and it's Spanish counterpart.

I love Mike's bi-polar attempt at trying to convince the children to keep from sending them the movie.

If it’s true that the walk was between Batavia and St. Charles, I think I know exactly which McDonalds/gas station he was talking about. The Amoco is now a title loan office, but I think we can still have it added to the National Register of Historic Places.

That was actually Joel, I think in either Catalina Caper or The Beatniks. Mike did have that one rant about how some guy cost him a temp job though, that lasted with him fuming about it (while the bots stood around awkwardly) through the commercial break.

I liked the one where he was making the baking soda bomb, and ranting about how he used to make those and got fired for it, and just getting angrier and angrier, using bigger and bigger baking soda boxes to fill it.

Also, "You people bring matches for Mikey?"

It's very cloying sci-fi, perhaps an apex example of the typical MST movie by being super-white, super-talky and super-boring but because it's in SPACE people were supposed to be entertained.

Or as Crow says: Somehow the answer to all its questions is big white guys in jumpsuits.

I came in at the end, but apparently RiffTrax has a film called Star Games which features not just writing and directing (air quotes as needed) by the beloved auteur Greydon Clark but also most of his family in featured roles.

The Giant Spider Invasion live show was a delight. It featured a truly horrifying short with marionettes who control the telecommunications system, and the unedited version of 'Invasion' is... certainly a thing. There's a line Mike says in the MST version that went something like "And the movie ramps up the repulsion!" when Farmer Back Brace is chasing his teenage sister-in-law and there's a lot more of that in the full film. I mean, good God, Wisconsin. What's your deal?

They showed the un-MSTed Giant Spider Invasion at the Milwaukee Film Fest a few years ago and they had the director Bill Rebane come out and intro it. He just looked into the crowd and said something along the lines of "I don't know why any of you are here or why you want to watch this".

There are certainly MST/RiffTrax movies that I enjoy un-riffed, but I honestly couldn't see Spider Invasion being one of them. In the same genre it's certainly nothing like, say, 'Them!' which I think is a really good movie for being about giant atomic ants.

RiffTrax is running a 15% off Labor Day sale for the interested. I'm tempted to pick up that very odd Scottish horror sci-fi flick Mary Jo and Bridget did whose name I forget, or maybe Uninvited with the cat who barfs a smaller cat to kill people.
