I’ve put on the soundtrack to The Harder They Come and I am doing my best to remember the episode . . . It was two days ago that I watched it and my memory of it is, fittingly, foggy. I need to not wait so long. I may not be able to keep up the rapid-fire viewing schedule I started with, but I need to at least review right after viewing.
108 – The Slime People
Crow: And remember folks, even at the end of the world, signal those turns.
It doesn’t help that I took no notes whatsoever on the short. I would report my opinions or impressions of it if I could remember them. I do, however, remember that I was going to say that I haven’t gotten tired of the Commando Cody shorts yet. I was expecting to by now. I know I got tired of them last time I watched these eps all in a row. I’ve heard many report the contrary, but I think they’re doing fine at keeping the riffs fresh and making the shorts fun. It may not be the best stuff ever, but it’s solid if you ask me. I’ve been having this feeling about the eps in general since The Crawling Hand. That is, it’s not the best, most funny stuff they ever did, but it’s still very good entertainment. If I had been an adult at the time and had caught 106, 107, or 108, I probably would have been hooked on the show from then on.
I enjoyed this episode. It does start to drag near the end because of all the dang fog superimposed over the picture. In the last half of the movie, some of the shots have actual fake fog, many others are actually a sunny shot superimposed with a shot of fogginess. Joel: Y’know, I can’t tell but I bet it’s really action-packed under all this fog. Joel and the Bots do relatively well during the last half of the movie, but it’s one of those cases of a movie doing something that’s just so non-thrilling that it makes the episode less enjoyable at that point. Overall, it’s not bad, that’s for sure, but the fog is definitely a factor in making this ep a bit hard to watch. But only a little. It’s still worth the time.
I wouldn’t say the episodes are improving dramatically each time as they did for a stretch in the KTMA season, but I think the Brains are starting to hit a stride at this point. For the past three episodes there’s a good consistency to the show; it’s fun and it just feels good to watch it.
Oh, look, there is a note about the short! I wrote that it was good. I remember now that I looked at my notes mid-episode and realized I’d no comments on the short. So, I just noted my impression, and well, now you’ve got it.
Some highlights from the rest of the ep:
First a pair I posted in the dirty jokes thread.
A shot opens with one of the women in one of those form-fitting fifties sweaters reaching into a cupboard. Crow: Hey, nice cups!
Later in the same kitchen scene . . . Old guy: Well, I’ll go get busy in the lab. Crow: And we’ll get busy in the kitchen!
I’ve always liked the “He asked me! He asked me!” riff. It’s sometimes funnier than other times, but it’s a classic to me. I don’t remember now what happened in this ep that Crow said it in response to, but . . . well, too bad, I guess.
Joel looks like he’s got a cowlick. His silhouette is kind of Gumby-headed.
At one point the characters are driving toward a crowd of people wandering down, no, loitering in the road and Joel makes a reference that I got and laughed quite a bit at ‘cause I actually got it and I know I didn’t get it last time I saw the ep. Joel says, “Lookit! They’re all on their way to a George Romero film festival!” and it’s so right! The people look so aimless and brain-dead.
Hey, I bet if I got more references, the shows would be more enjoyable. Okay, I feel like a jerk for going on so stubbornly about how I don’t get references and don’t care. But it looks like I kinda do . . . Willy the Waffle strikes again!
I love that the Brains lampoon themselves in one of the host segments. They’re discussing the merits of a sort of “Gilligan’s Island Theater 3000” with a guy stranded on an isle and evil people sending bad movies to him and his little pals but Joel insists, “It wouldn’t fly.” I always love a little auto-mockery, and it sort of lays out how absurd the whole situation is, from the premise of the show to the fact that the show is actually succeeding.
Then Joel ends that segment with a great line: “If I’m ever stuck in space again, I think I’ll just bring a book."
Ya know, the slime people actually look pretty good. I mean, the masks look kind of cool and are well done and original (as far as I know). They don’t look as good in the wide shots without fog. That’s when you can see that the slime person suit is just a big headpiece that doesn’t blend well with the rest of the costume. But maybe they decided it would be fine because they’d be obscured by fog most of the time and no one would be able to see that they skimped on the time and effort to complete the costumes.
So, I’ve watched 25 episodes so far! But that’s nothin’. I got a long way to go!
P.S. If you’ve got suggestions for stuff I ought to see to start getting more references, please contribute to the appropriate thread I’m going to start in general chat!

Heh. I did love the host segment where they lampooned their own show. (laughs) And there are some good riffs in that one. Like when they think they've found evidence of where the blonde girl went...
"Oh, yeah, you can _always_ find a blonde hair in a field of wheat." "In the fog." "At NIGHT."
:P
Some really funny stuff in that episode. I dunno; I just liked it. I'd say more except I've been really sick lately and don't have much energy. Ugh.

Right on. I'd still love to hear your thoughts on Robot Monster. When you're up to it, that is.

I'm listening to the CD of Pet Sounds that I just got. Interestingly, it has the mono mix followed by the stereo mix on the same disc. Kinda cool, I guess. 109 - Project Moonbase + Cody 7 & 8 Tom: It's hard to take anyone in a flannel skull cap seriously. A good ep. Nothing classic, but not tough to watch by any means. I love Spacom, though. I keep it in my cupboard right next to my Sampo. My favorite host segment from this one is the Spacom commercial. The Brains really did watch a lot of TV, didn't they? They really know how to imitate commercials, be it in a host segment or in the theater making fun of the miniatures that look like a GI Joe space playset. Joel: Miniatures by . . . What'd they have miniatures for . . . ? Crow: Uh, they used a lot of Hummel figurines for the space sequences. (Not an example of their commercial success, but rather a tangentially related riff I liked.)While on the subject of miniatures, there was a reasonably obscure reference that I got! In the movie, there's a shot of the rocket launching pad and Joel says, "Meanwhile, in Estes Park, Colorado . . . " And if you don't know, Joel is pointing out that the rockets are obviously miniatures by creatively supposing that the launch site is in Estes Park, CO, which is where Estes Brand model rockets originated! The colonel lady is named Briteis. I wonder, if the band Bright Eyes had been around at the time, whether the Brains would have imitated Conor Oberst's teary voice. Depending on their impression ability, it could be funny. I guess. Probably not. Just a thought. One of my favorite moments was in the briefing scene: General: Now that we have a space station . . . All: Or Frisbee . . . G: It is at last possible to send a ship . . . A: Or batteries . . . G: All the way around the moon. A: Or playground ball. And when the space station is seen in space, I was hoping that they would make a riff that would go something like this: Station person: You are clear to dock. Over. Someone as Colonel: This is definitely an actual space station and not the exact same model the general just had on his desk. Over. Someone else as station person: Of course not. Over. But they didn't. Anyone know what the point of Polly Prattle was? Suddenly there's this archetype providing comic relief and then she's gone just as suddenly. Was she an imitation of some icon, or something? Or was she just the best comic relief the moviemakers could muster? Polly Prattle would make another good board member name, but that thread seems to have died, so I'll just leave it. There are some really really bad line reads in this movie, the general isn't the only one, but he's definitely the worst! His is the scene in which Joel holds up the prop cue cards for him. That bit was good, but I think it shows too plainly that the guys have seen the movie and are well prepared for it. In this ep, Joel also has the "Biff" and "Pow" signs during one of the fight scenes in one of the shorts. There was also a moment in Slime People where an actor is pausing and the guys decide he's forgotten his line. Josh then voices the actor and says "Oh, yeah . . . " and then speaks the line before the actor does. These moments have their humor, but I think they break down the suspended disbelief, which I dislike. I mean, I dislike it when my disbelief is taken off of suspension. Is that a double negative? Triple? I think this movie is very guilty of being worthless sci-fi for sci-fi's sake. That is, there is no value to this movie whatsoever, it just has a bunch of models and fancy nonsense space talk. The moviemakers are saying, "Hey kids! Here's the cardboard space movie you wanted!" This has the very weakest plot I think I have ever seen. Erhardt describes it as being as "weak as herbal tea". I think it's also thinner than the napkin they wrote it out on. Oh, yeah, not much to say about the shorts. They're average. I did like this riff in response to the vehicles the moon men drive about: Joel: Y'know, those moon men have uses for plywood we haven't even dreamed of! Then, when Cody and the other guy have hijacked a plywood mooncar, Cody says to the other guy something that sounds exactly like "Take as much speed as you can!" Which is pretty funny. And to hijack an idea from another reviewer, if this ep had a stinger, I'd choose this: General: The president thinks and so do I . . .

Not only is "Project Moonbase" a thoroughly pointless movie, but I also believe that it's the most chauvinistic film that the show ever did. The forced marriage at the end just puts my teeth on edge.

Ironically, I think the film makers were trying to be progressive. Note that there's a woman as colonel and a woman as president.
I don't get quite the same vibe though. I mean I feel there are MSTed movies that are more chauvinistic than this one. I don't have any titles on file right now, but . . .

Probably, but that scene where the general says he's going to _spank_ Colonel Briteis takes the cake, platter and entire bakery! Just that alone. Sure, they made a woman be the President at the end, but that doesn't make up for the "scream all you like, this room is soundproof" (with the spanking thing), Briteis immediately falling to pieces and being "lonely" when the so-called hunky guy is out of her sight for two seconds, and the forced wedding at the end. AND her deliberately making her rank lower so that her husband would be able to order her around. Ugh.
Anyway, now for my thoughts on Robot Monster. Don't know how coherent they're going to be; I've been sick lately. And when I say sick, I mean _sick_. I spent about 24 of the last 48 hours throwing up from time to time and then with the dry heaves. My stomach was so upset I couldn't keep WATER down (which explains why I kept throwing up...I kept putting things back into myself. But dagnabit, I was dehydrated!) Put that in addition to the fact that it just got summery hot around here on the same day I got sick and the air conditioner barely works, and...bleh. Just entire days of lying around feeling horrible, drained and _stomped_ on. (Specifcally, my stomach feels like a little kid is standing on it. All the time.) Needless to say, the constantly having to get out of bed so I can crawl to the toilet to throw up...made it so I didn't get much _sleep_ either. Oy...
Sorry if I grossed you out. Just had to share my woes there for a moment. And speaking of being sick, maybe I shouldn't have reminded myself of the "spanking" bit from Project Moonbase. Ugh. But anyway...
Robot Monster...well, you already mentioned most of my favourite riffs that I can recall. The bit with the "chocolate serum?" has gotten into my brain, however, so that now every time I hear somebody use the word "serum" somewhere else I'll have to throw a flavour in front of it. :P The "armageddon weddin"...
And the 'bots reaction to having to see TWO Commando Codys in a row, and their trying to run out of the theater, was just _priceless_. It also caused me to go "Hey, wait, you did that back in Season One!" when they pulled the exact same thing on Mike during Hobgoblins... And _all_ the 'bots heads exploding (well, okay, except Gypsy, who wasn't in the scene) when they tried to figure out how bumblebees fly. Heh. "We've all reported to the moon at some point or another..."
I wrote down some of my favourite riffs as I went along the last time I watched this (although I stopped doing that after a bit...I just lost the energy). But here are a few examples...
RO-MAN: Due to an error in calculation, there are still a few of you left. --JOEL: We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.
RO-MAN: Now I know you are watching. I see five of you who have not been destroyed. Show yourselves, and I promise you a painless death. --CROW: Eh, we're lookin' at a few other offers.
(cracks up)
----------------------------
RO-MAN: Is there a choice between the painless surrender death--or the horror-of-resistance death? --SERVO: Oh, I didn't know the death-ray had two settings!
Oh, yeah, these modern death-rays, they're so versatile dontchaknow. They have settings on there of everything from "Disembowel" to "Frolic"!
...okay, so that last bit was me, I'm sorry, that came to me the last time I was watching the movie and I HAD to write it down somewhere. Anyway. Continuing.
ALICE: (to Ro-Man) Where should we meet? --CROW: Behind the high school gym, right after math.
(during the wedding scene, aka the "Armageddon Weddin'"*) SCIENTIST: Dear Lord, you know I am not trained for this job... --CROW: Acting?
*SERVO: Armageddon married in the morning!
----------------------------
See, I can do all this 'cos it's stuff I typed out a long time ago, and don't have to use my current lack of energy to write. :P

The main memory I carry with me about "Robot Monster"--the MST episode, not the movie--is my little story about it. Surely you've heard this story from me at some point? I've told it like three or four times since I first came here. To the point where it's at least somewhat annoying by now. :P
But in case you haven't (and since you've been deliberately avoiding threads about people's favourite episodes, riffs, etc. maybe you honestly _haven't_ heard this story yet), the story is...well, actually I'm telling it the wrong way 'round and already gave away the punchline. The story is about how one day I _accidentally_, without putting any real effort into it at all, converted somebody to die-hard MSTiedom with just one episode...one that I myself hadn't seen before, so I couldn't possibly have deliberately tailored it to the potential convertee's tastes. Was it name of famous episode here? Was it name of another fan-favourite episode in this place? Was it The Movie? Was it something from the Sci-Fi era? No, it was a "mere" Season One episode--Robot Monster!
Ta da da da, da, da da, da DAAAA!
But seriously. I did "convert" somebody with Robot Monster. Set the Wayback Machine for...hmmm, I think 1999. I had just gotten my "new" (at the time) computer, it was a hot May day, much like today, and I was feeling under the weather again. (Started the day off fine, but by the time we finally bought the last thing we needed--the desk for my computer--I was definitely needing to lie down.) My brother starts assembling the desk in my room, and at some point his at the time girlfriend Brook shows up. She starts off trying to help him build the desk, but it's such a tiny room and a fairly biggish desk that there honestly isn't enough _space_ for two people to be working in there at the same time, so she eventually leaves him to it and starts wandering through the living room.
Meanwhile, I have recently-ish recieved a package from a MSTie friend in the mail, containing a tape with some Season One episodes that I thought sounded interesting: Women of the Prehistoric Planet, Robot Monster, and Moon Zero Two. I've already seen the first, so, since I have no energy to do much else besides lie around looking at a TV screen, I pop the tape in and let it play from whereever it is.
Well, Brook keeps wandering through the living room, to get a snack, a drink of water, etc. but every time back through she stays a _little_ longer...finally she just gets outright snared by the TV and sits down on the couch to watch it with me. During some lulls in the dialogue I attempt to explain the bare bones of the show's concept, but otherwise I shut up and let the show explain itself, or not. ..and she starts smiling...then chuckling...
What finally GOT her was the host segment where Servo has to "kill the Hu-man!" (a favourite of mine, too). When Joel picks another chair up and brains the little robot AGAIN, Brook just fell _over_ on the floor laughing her head off. From then on she was hooked, watched the entire rest of the episode with me and the first fifteen minutes of "Moon Zero Two" (I also got the opportunity to freak her out with my impression of Erhardt's "THANK you!" along the way), before she had to leave. She had to _drag_ herself away from the TV, seriously.
It gets even better. Later that night, my brother had several of his friends and Brook over for some reason, and a conversation about which TV shows do you like came up. Brook, _not_ me, mentioned MST3K right as I was about to (I'm off in the corner doing this surprised/devilish huge GRIN all over my face, towards the wall so they can't see me), and when one of my brother's friends dissed the show, she immediately LEAPT to its defense with fiery anger! Cut that guy right down to size. I mean she was _mad_. Part of one episode and she is DEFENDING IT TO THE DEATH!
Isn't that a great story? :)
And _that's_ why I say that the Season One episodes aren't that bad...and also why I feel that, if you have the right audience, you don't have to be THAT picky as to which episode you show, to a potential "convert". The show is just plain good. Shut up, and let it speak for itself. If the person is willing to listen, they'll hear.

Oh, geez, I'd forgotten the spanking scene . . . Maybe you're right, jjb3k.
But, actually Cleo, I haven't heard that story before. That is a good one. And I agree that there's a lot of good stuff in season one. Like I said, if I'd seen 106-108 on TV, I'd have been hooked right there. And I think that budding MSTies should start their collection in a more or less chronological way. I mean I've always been glad that I watched my boots in order when I first got them. If I had paid attention to hype and used that to determine which eps to watch, I probably would never have even gotten to watching them all. If one starts at the beginning, one gets a foundation to one's MSTiedom and an ability to enjoy episodes from every era, including episodes that aren't as super as others. At least that's what I feel it did for me.

The colonel lady is named Briteis. I wonder, if the band Bright Eyes had been around at the time, whether the Brains would have imitated Conor Oberst's teary voice. Depending on their impression ability, it could be funny. I guess. Probably not. Just a thought.. Been about a year since I saw this episode, but I remember being disappointed that they didn't make a "Turn around, Bright Eyes" riff. Guess the Brains weren't big pop music fans in 1983.

Well, I more than made up for them on that one. I yelled out at the screen at least once or twice: "Turn _around_, Bright Eyes!" :P Actually I said turn around Briteis, on account of how annoyed she was at the chauvanistic guys deliberately saying her name wrong, but close enough...

Uh oh, now I get to reveal my naivete again. Where is "Turn around, Bright Eyes" from? Sounds like it ought to be a Smiths lyric . . .
Okay, I did the research, and found that it is from "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler. Boy do I feel dumb now. Well, it's not that I knew and then forgot, but I kind of like Bonnie Tyler. Well, not really. What I love is "Holding Out for a Hero" from the Footloose soundtrack. I love that song and Deniece Williams' "Let's Hear It for the Boy". The Kenny Loggins tracks are pretty good too. "Almost Paradise" is on the verge of not being liked, and the rest of that soundtrack is despised by me. But anyway, though I love "Holding Out for a Hero", I'm not so familiar with "Total Eclipse". Oh well.
I kind of like the riff I came up with in the "Refs they might have made" thread in gen chat: "Bright Eyes? Great, is she gonna start singing and sound like she's always about to cry?"
I don't like Bright Eyes 'cause of Conor's weepy sound, but it seems odd to me that I like The Decemberists as much as I am finding that I do (I'm listening to them presently). The bands aren't related, but the vocalist for The Decemberists sounds like he has the voice box of a five year old. Colin Meloy is his name. With the voices they have and the names Colin Meloy and Conor Oberst , the two seem like they must come from the same school, and like they studied under a prof with a thing for strange voices. Emo Philips, maybe.
Anyway, back to it . . .
110 - Robot Holocaust with Cody number 9, number 9, number 9 . . .
The first color CC episode! The last of Commando Cody!
I like this ep a whole lot. I think it has the highest rewatch potential of the season so far. It think the movie itself is the biggest factor. I just have a thing for the eps with '80s sci-fi and sword & sandal movies. And Robot Holocaust is both!
I don't like '80s sci-fi and sword & sandal movies on their own. But I like the epsiodes with them. I have been known to enjoy bad B&W '50s sci-fi movies on their own, though. And yet, when I'm not on an MST3K viewing schedule and I'm just asking myself, "What sort of episode do you feel like watching?" I often think of eps such as Outlaw, Warrior of the Lost World, Cave Dwellers, and Deathstalker first. I have no desire to see good movies from this genre/era. I dunno. It puzzles me.
Anyway, I loved Robot Holocaust. I actually took hardly any notes though. There were plenty of laughs, but not much that I felt like highlighting. Seems sort of backwards to me too! If I loved the ep so much, why don't I have more to say about it? I dunno. It puzzles me.
I did like all of the "Nuge" jokes. Probably because I despise the Nuge's music. I can't remember who said it but here's my favorite Nuge riff: "The Nuge has a saggy diaper that leaks!"
The plot in this movie may be even thinner than Project Moonbase! It's really easy to forget what's going on. They do a bunch of exposition, like why they need to get to the power station and what they'll do when they get there, near the beginning, but it fades real quick because it makes no difference in the subsequent scenes. That is, their motivation is in no way apparent throughout the rest of the movie. They're just on some kind of journey and confronting one obstacle after the other; why they're journeying doesn't make a difference to their characters or actions. Well, it's easy to remember that they're trying to free the father guy and themselves from slavery, but why they have to do what they're doing is unclear if you didn't catch it when they spoke it at the onset.
The acting of "Malaria" is just fascinating to watch. Just watch the way she moves her head when she speaks! Is she trying to shoo flies as she does her lines? Then there's her voice of course. I think the sound on the movie is not very well produced, so that doesn't help, but she also has some accents getting in the way. There's the one that's Eastern European, I believe, then there's the fact that she sounds like a deaf person speaking. The deaf have a sort of accent and she's got it. Not sure if that didn't occur to the Brains or if they didn't want to make jokes in that direction. But, to be honest, being Eastern European and hearing impaired isn't going to help you out in Hollywood!
The dad guy who becomes the avacado also looks really weird when he's speaking. He makes funny head movements as well. He sounds like he needs to open his jaw a little more when he speaks and he tries too hard to pause dramatically. When Malaria and "Carl" have scenes together it's a head twitchin', hard ta understand fiasco!
Okay, all done!

Oh yeah! I also love all the ways the guys mishear Malaria when she says "Dark One". I'm actually not sure if they say this one, but I always think I'm hearing "Dog Wad". That'd be another great user name: The Dog Wad.

Oh, man. That movie may take the cake as for the cheesy _incredibly_ low-budget, outright STUPID movies I've ever seen. At least on MST3K. It may even (gasp!) out cheese-and-stupid Hobgoblins! I mean, really...monsters that are _sock-puppets_...?
But at least you get funky/amusing costumes and hairstyles to look at, more so than with Hobgoblins since this isn't only the '80s, it's the '80s version of a sci-fi/fantasy universe. And I suppose a few of the shirtless, long-haired warrior types weren't _too_ terrible to look at. (Of course, there was plenty of scantily-clad female babeage around for the guys, too.) So overall I'd count the movie as somewhat more enjoyable to watch than Hobgoblins. Robot Holocaust merely annoyed me; it didn't make me _sick_ at any points.
Now, as for Valeria (I'm assuming you _did_ know her real name and were just making a joke on purpose, yes?)...she cracks me up, she does. Definitely the main scene-stealer of the movie. Yes, I agree that her accent does sound quite a bit like a deaf person...that occurred to me, too. Whatever it is, it is _hard_ to understand. "You can nevah hop to defeat ze powah of ze Dahg Wan." D'ya know, we've had whole _threads_ in which we debated which character was less coherent--her or Natalie, from Werewolf? I don't know if you've seen any of those discussions or not. Anyway, we have. I am not sure, myself. But those two are definitely THE most slurry-mouthed MST main ladies, that I can think of anyway.
Some of my favourite riffs include the one about "Well, yeah, I _guess_ it's a wilderness..if you discount that whole huge CITY right behind them!" and when they pointed out that the guys were _obviously_ in Central Park!...or stuff like, "What are they _looking_ for, anyway? Clothing?" Or: "We can't just STAND here!" CROW: Well, actually, you can. I mean, it's possible.
:P
I won't give anything specific away for the future, but I will say that after seeing this one...now, the riffs they make about "And then they travelled to the power station" in a few _later_ episodes, NOW, those riffs make sense to me. Heh. In at least one case, the situation was so similar that I was like, "Say it....SAY ittt....you know you want to....YES!"
One last thing about Robot Holocaust: I don't know if it can still be found anymore, but back around Christmastime, a poster here made a link to a parody/sequel of this movie that he and his friends did. Yes, really. It's about 13 minutes long (maybe only 10), has action figures stomping around on the table to represent "evil armies" at one point, was _obviously_ just filmed by some guy and his friends in his house, and so therefore has about the SAME budget and amount of care put into it as the original movie. :P But it's shorter, and makes somewhat more sense. It cracked me UP, this thing did. Especially the bit at the end where an "air slave" (skinny guy with no shirt on) suddenly appears in the guy's house out of nowhere, for NO reason, and does the overdramatic "WE'RE SAVED! WE CAN BREATHE AGAIN! WE'RE FREE!!" _exactly_ like in the movie. I mean they nailed it. If anything the overacting needed to be a bit cheesi_er_. I was just on the floor...
Anyway, if you want to see this parody thingie, let me know and I'll see if I can't find the link. :)
Shutting up now...

Yeah, I know her name's not Malaria, I just like calling her that. I'd say she's worse than Natalie. Werewolf is one of my top ten ever episodes (not that I've determined what my other nine are), but I'm not so biased that I'd deny that Valeria is more cotton-mouthed. She is right up there with the Paper Chase guy.
I agree that Hobgoblins is worse in many ways. That movie is truly repulsive in its badness.
