Zamboni Rodeo posted:Something I've really appreciated about this New Years stream (and the Swayze Christmas one) is that they're showcasing Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic in addition to MST3k. It's just nice to see. I really like that the Rifftrax crew and the NeoMST crew are on such good terms. The Mads are Back is staying a little more arm's-length from both, but there doesn't seem to be any seething hatred between camps or anything. It could easily have gone otherwise.

An uncredited Ricardo Montalban was the English-dub voice of Claudius in Hamlet. (I can't believe Mike and the bots only made ONE mention of it in the whole movie, a "rich Corinthian leather" joke.)

Splint Chesthair posted:It’s kind of refreshing that the conflict is hobbyist drama between these two tweedy nerds. Like, has Britain ever produced a horror movie about warring stamp collectors? In one of the original Sherlock Holmes stories, the villain is an evil butterfly collector. e: To clarify, he's an evil collector of butterflies, not a collector of evil butterflies. (Although I suppose we don't know for sure if any of the butterflies were evil too. But if they were, that's unimportant to the plot.)

Asterite34 posted:I've said it before, but I maintain that Screaming Skull isn't actually that bad. The performances are honestly pretty decent, it has an okay sense of atmosphere (when it's not padded to hell anyway), the central conceit of it is suitably spooky. "Serial black widower gaslights new bride with fake ghost of his previous wife so she has a mental breakdown and her murder can look more convincing as a suicide, only for ACTUAL ghost of previous wife to appear and wreak her vengeance upon him" is a good horror movie plot! Agreed 100%. The way I've phrased it is that if you edit out all the filler and packing peanuts, you'd be left with a perfectly decent Twilight Zone episode. All the extra runtime just lets you ponder things you aren't supposed to think about too hard, like Mickey's entire living and employment situation. (Has Eric been paying him all this time? Does he have any kind of caretaker to help him, like, buy groceries and make doctor appointments? In the film he's just kind of there and no one questions it.)

Bloodlust! certainly isn't good, per se, but at least it's based on a story (The Most Dangerous Game) that's good enough to have been adapted to film a couple dozen times. Most of the characters were pretty generic, but the evil big-game hunter was just fine. Time Chasers has its flaws, but at its core, I find it kind of endearing. Not so much in a Prince of Space kind of way, but more like a Phantom Planet flavor: it's a sci-fi that's very much of its era, doing the best it can with a limited budget. Space Travelers (AKA Marooned before it got the Film Ventures International treatment) has a perfectly good storyline. (And Oscar-winning special effects!) If only it had any actual characters...

The very best DVD commentary track is the one for Star Trek: Insurrection in which Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis (who play Riker and Troi) get plastered and slam the movie almost as hard as MST would. It's glorious.

Her Dryer posted:Same, I used to really not like the Sci Fi skits but now I think they're pretty decent. Pearl is a very very good mad. It's actually a little strange to go back and watch the late Comedy Central shows that introduced Pearl. They're good funny bits, but wow, Mary Jo did NOT have her character down yet. Once she wasn't constrained by being Clayton's mom all the time and became the center stage Mad, she just bloomed.

It's very likely that there are jokes in this show that the person who wrote the joke has forgotten what exactly they were referring to when they wrote it 30 years ago.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:"Leonard Maltin awarded the film two and a half out of a possible four stars (his most widely used rating), complimenting the film's use of colors and haunting atmosphere while criticizing the film's acting, dialogue, and simplistic plot." I've always liked the extended bit during the credits of Laserblast where they look through Maltin's book and compare its rating to actual movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUkMjQuwgDg&t=4350s
