We're leaving together, but still it's farewell. And maybe we'll come back to Earth, who can tell? I guess there's no one to blame. We're leaving ground! Will things ever be the same again? We're heading to Venus. And still we stand tall, 'cause maybe they've seen us and will welcome us all. With so many light years to go and things to be found, I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.
You know, if you think about it, those lyrics sound like they'd make a good MST episode. But instead, you need to pick from two other good MST episodes.
Both episodes have their catchphrases: "Go ahead on" vs. "Rowsdower?" Both have their heroes: a fat drunk guy vs. a fat drunk guy Both have their mascots: Larry Czonka vs. Goosio But only one was brought to you by the writer/director of "Angel's Revenge" and producer of "Hobgoblins". And only one can get your vote.
Just like how "The Final Frontier" wasn't the last Star Trek movie, or "The Final Chapter" wasn't the last Jason movie, this isn't the last Pointless Poll. It's just a clever and pointless title. Kinda like "The Neverending Story," which sounds like a horrible title until you learn that the original German title was, "Die Unendliche Geschichte."
And now you know. And knowing is half the battle.

Final Justice is a pretty consistent "good" episode. Final Sacrifice features some of my favorite riffing, but it also features a fair number of duds. Still, the good outweighs the bad enough that I would have to go with the film from our friends up north.
My prediction is that Sacrifice will run away with the vote.

What?!?! No GOB Bluth in this thread? What a rip-off! Come on! You're absolutely right. I've made a huge mistake. My apologies, mi hermano. Allow me to make amends: They're illusions, Michael. And we can't forget Franklin now, can we?

Yay for Mr. A! (Ahhh, I could make a song out of that) Another fun poll.
Justice is good, but he's no Mitchell. While Final Sacrifice seems to have received this recent backlash and fallen from favor -it isn't steady enough? BAH! Yeah you heard me BAH! I laugh till I drop, start to finish.
Rowsdower!

Haven't seen these two in quite a while. I know if gonna get a big backlash from this, but Final Sacrifice wasn't drop dead hillarious as claimed the first time I saw it. For example, I laughed more at Space Mutiny or Werewolf. Hmmm, maybe it needs another viewing chance to really shine.
As for Final Justice, oh yeah, I kept cracking up whenever Joe Don went into his 'Clint Eastwood-like' persona. This guy just doesn't make a good action hero, or any kind of action hero, hell, any kind of hero, for that matter.
I'll refrain from voting and I definately need to get around on reviewing a couple of Sci-fi eps.

I laugh till I drop, start to finish. I honestly haven't watched FS since it first aired. Don't remember it being really anything special. Not bad, but just kind of meh. Certainly not any better than Touch of Satan or Phantom Planet from that year, and certainly not in the same league as the great season 8 eps. But I think I still have it on tape, I'll drag it out this weekend and see if it's better than I remember.
