Keromaru5 posted:I think this actually came up in the episode guide: IIRC, the movie gave them so little to work with that they gave up and made all the host segments about waffles. The best part of that was making a sketch referencing Coily, then not riffing the Coily short for another 7 years.

Has Gary in Motion (on Youtube) removed the Cinematic versions of MST3K? We've been looking at them on weekends (Eegah...not so much watching out for snakes, but so much more of Arch Hall, Jr's face), but unless my search-fu has failed me, they seem to have disappeared off youtube. Did find this, though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXW6-KlMM9Y which I think will be tonight's film. (Much needed after my university suddenly announced on Monday that they are enacting a major purge of permanent staff on my faculty to save Edit -- yep: they were removed a few days ago https://www.reddit.com/r/MST3K/comments/hisqrl/garyinmotion_cinema_editions_removed/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MST3K/comments/hiuxfs/the_curtain_closes_on_mst3k_cinema_editions/ ETA -- And here's probably why they were removed: big article all about the guy's work brought his channel to the wrong people's attention, I guess: https://www.pastemagazine.com/comedy/mst3k/mst3k-cinema-edition-youtube-mystery-science-theater/ Ms Boods fucked around with this message at 08:48 on Jul 3, 2020 |

A lot of MST episodes have been scrubbed from YouTube, possibly because they're now on Tubi.

Every time someone refers to their spouse as "the wife" I hear Tom Servo say "boy, the wife will be awfully glad to see the me." "We're going to have the sex!"

I really like that one. They try for good-natured ribbing and then one of them takes it off the deep end and makes everyone uncomfortable, eventually leading to tears and an apology. It feels like something everyone can identify with.

Plus, at some point, we've all seen Anne of Green Gables smiling up at us one too many times and wished to blow up Prince Edward Island, and then immediately regretted it, because of all its natural beauty and all the Rowsdowers who live there.

Fair point, plus Servo’s anger-fueled meltdowns are usually entertaining to watch.

I don't want to pull out the maple syrup card, but I'm Canadian and love when people make fun of Canada because as a people we're pretty smug about our self-anointed greatness. Especially vis-a-vis Amercans.

Down at the game store a friend and I played a game with a guy who did long haul trucking from Edmonton. He was very apologetic that Canada had elected Trudeau and in general on the whole that Canada did not like Trump very much in general. It was quite eye-opening.

They're very right wing ( Conservatives in power for 46 of the last 50 years iirc ) and have this huge chip on their shoulder about not getting enough respect for their oil and gas industry from the rest of the country. They've also convinced themselves that they are the core of Canada's economy and that they're paying for the rest of our social programs, both of which are extremely untrue. The have ~10% of the population and can't seem to understand why we don't let them call all the shots. It's a beautiful place but the people are loving weird.

Rewatching some Netflix episodes since I haven't watched them a million times like the original and they are still pretty good. They Day Time Ended might be a boring movie but the riff is top notch. Also the "we're men of a certain age" skit is funny.

I wish Reptilicus didn't have such annoying riffing, because the Every Nation Has a Monster song is a top tier host segment for me. The riffs are just too rapid fire, kind of like they were self conscious about taking the show over.

The riffs are just too rapid fire, kind of like they were self conscious about taking the show over. I think it was more due to the different writing style. If everyone is in the same room watching the movie together, it feels more natural than people writing riffs separately, then combining it all. Also, I vaguely recall some mention of how a lot of modern TV comedy (Family Guy may have been the example) is super dense with jokes and references, so they were going for that pacing. If that's the case, I'm glad they decided to give the jokes a bit of breathing room later.

Bill has been doing the same kind of thing on the Rifftrax side. Laser Mission originally included a transphobic joke, but the VOD on the site was eventually updated to remove it. I can't even remember what it was, but it probably had to do with the "solider doesn't realize his commanding officer is a woman" gag in the movie. And I can't recall them doing anything like that to begin with in the more recent ones. And on a similar note, I think Gypsy has been officially renamed GPC after the last live tour. Joel got some feedback about her name around the time the tour was coming together.
