In the wake of the XXV announcement that blindsided us all with Universal and MGM episodes, I'm curious to get this new one started. With all these new episodes as possibilities, what do you think will come next?
I'm still sticking with my guns on Rocketship X-M and Stranded in Space. For the former, they've released Bill's first episode, which was no doubt hard to get, and they have Lippert's library at their disposal. Let's get Kevin's out! Stranded is the last CBS property, so that's coming out eventually.
And I think we'll have at least one title each from our new pals at MGM and Universal. I'm going to take a wild stab and say Escape 2000 and the Thing That Wouldn't Die, but really any title would be a welcome one!
So, Torgo's predictions:
Rocketship X-M
Stranded in Space
Escape 2000
The Thing That Wouldn't Die
What do you, the viewers at home, think?

Because I want them badly, I'll join Torgo and also go with Rocketship XM and Escape 2000 for half of my wild guess here.
Rocketship X-M
The Day The Earth Froze
Escape 2000
The Leech Woman
I really love Escape and Leech Woman, really hoping Shout puts them out soon thanks to the new deals. Other good choices I'd love to see would be Outlaw and Deadly Mantis.

I too am going to put Rocketship X-M on my list again. Now that we have the first Sci-Fi era episode to add to the long line of first and lasts on DVD I think that Frank/Kevin as Servo first would be a good place to go next. Plus now that Universal and MGM are on board I think they'll try to get one of each of those in a set before their deal runs out with them. So I got:
Rocketship X-M
Day the Earth Froze
Alien From L.A.
The Projected Man

Oh man, to be able to freely speculate on the universal and MGM titles being released. Today is like Christmas. These are all purely because these are the ones I want to be released but hey it's just speculation:
Rocketship X-M
The Magic Sword
Escape 2000
Riding with Death

201 Rocketship X-M
614 San Francisco International
803 Mole People

It really makes me wonder, going straight for Universal's most "recognized" monster feature used on MST (the Creature films being slightly more 'marketable' than THE THING THAT COULDN'T DIE, RIDING WITH DEATH, etc.) This is an awesome sign, and could very well point to a good future relationship with Universal's catalog.
I'm wondering if we'll see similar things with MGM; I'd really like to see THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN, ATTACK OF THE THE EYE CREATURES and VILLAGE OF THE GIANTS get their just release. Oh, and so many more...
As for the next set, I'd either say a similar one to XXV, or one with some cheaper and PD titles thrown in to reduce costs from XXV.
Like:
THE MAGIC SWORD
HIGH SCHOOL BIG SHOT
THE THING THAT COULDN'T DIE
THE SCREAMING SKULL
But, really, at this point, I'm giddy with joy at everything Shout! announces. We can only hope Sony and Warners are next...

I'm going with these:
108 The Slime People
412 Hercules and the Captive Women
519 Outlaw
802 The Leech Woman
It feels pretty weird to be putting Outlaw and The Leech Woman on a serious prediction. Weird, but good.

Not so much guessing at this point but this is what I would like to see on the next set.
201 Rocketship X-M (When the heck is this gonna come out? I've guessed this one on the past 5 sets.)
418 Attack of the the Eye Creatures
704 Incredible Melting Man
804 The Deadly Mantis

With the big name studios allowing their stuff in volume XXV, the sky is the limit for volume XXVI. Well, at least most of the MST3K episode catalog.
I'd prefer Shout go more chronologically, really. Give us all the old stuff before it deteriorates completely off the tapes. The rest of season 3 in particular.
Now if only they could convince Susan Hart (or license around her).

I honestly don't think we'll EVER see either of the Toho titles. We're lucky to have gotten MEGALON (even if it was only for a brief time). |
