You ever wonder how he went from one of Disney's top stars to doing AIP films?

At the age of 21 he had a relationship with a 15 year old boy. The mom found out and informed Disney. No one pressed charges. Instead Disney chose not to renew his contract, not necessarily because it was with an underage boy, but because they couldn't keep the lid on his being gay.


edit: I'm sure he had a lovely youth, having to be in Hollywood hiding who he was. He also had a drug problem. But yeah, can't really excuse the whole being with a 15 year old thing.


Still, he was a very talented young actor. RIP.

Yeah, considering the stuff they've carefully swept under the rug over the years, I have a feeling they didn't give a poo poo about the 15 year old part and instead gave a whole lot of a poo poo about the boy part.

And this is not to defend a practising paedophile in any way. Just feels like Disney being massive hypocrites.

and its "sequel" Crash and Burn which was barely related

They are doing Robot Wars from the same studio but it too is unrelated aside from mech fights in the post-apocalypse.

So I don't know how many of you watch the MST3k 24/7 channel (I watch it on Twitch), but occasionally there's a bumper for it, linked below.

There's a line I'm trying to figure out the context of. Can anyone help me figure it out?

It’s from a host segment in The Christmas That Almost Wasn’t where they review the type of old toys that Santa is always depicted as making.

They’ve announced at least three: Robot Wars, Demon Squad and Gamera vs Jiger.

I want an MST3K episode where it's just shorts. The Mads just tell Jonah/Emily/Whoever "we were going to send you [movie] but they sent us the wrong film cans, so you're gonna have to watch whatever's on 'em."

It would be kind of funny for one of the crew to, like, play Night Trap but I'm not sure how it would work.

The problem with Night Trap specifically as a game is that to play it properly means you're missing out on all the actual story. You're trying to stop the bad guys from kidnapping people which means looking at video feeds other than the ones where the story is happening.

I feel like you could do some kind of modern version of this where you can multitask and see both the story and stop the bad guys- seems like something perfect for the Switch


but also I want someone to make a new Night Trap

I feel the same way about the Zucchini/Throw Pillows host segment in Giant Spider Invasion. I don't know why but even knowing every punchline, it's executed so well.

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

Tickets for my local live show finally went on sale today and may I just say, for the record, gently caress TicketMaster. They do everything in their power to prevent you from actually, you know, buying tickets. And then when you finally manage it, they do everything in their power to keep you from actually getting the stupid QR code that lets you into the theater. I understand they have to try to combat scalper-bots, but come ON, people.

Been watching through the Netflix episodes again and just finished Starcrash tonight.

wtf even was that movie, it wasn't even nonsensical, it was anti-sensical. On paper, as a flamboyantly bad movie, it seems like it should be a shoo-in for an all time great episode, but it's too ridiculous to even be worth riffing on. You can't keep up with it, you almost have to just stand back and let it do its thing and stare in amazement.
