406 - Attack of the Giant Leeches
Memorable Riffs from Short:
Joel: “Good idea, kid! Why didn’t I think of that?”
Joel: “AUGH! The film’s melting… oh, hey it’s a better world!”
Crow: “Traffic lights must be out.”
Crow: “Jane! I’m home!”
Crow: “Wait right there! We’re coming to attack you!”
Servo: “If they kill me, they’re probably an enemy.”
Fav. Riff from short:
Servo: “Beep…. beep…. beep…. he’s backing up.”
Memorable riffs from movie:
Servo: “Thanks for comforting me with a gun!”
Crow: “Hey, what’s this hole in the— ARGHHHH!!!”
Joel: “This make me feel like we’re Lewis and Clark. You’re Jerry Lewis and I’m Petula Clark.”
Crow: “Well, there’d be more oxygen for the rest of us.”
Crow: “Uh, she dropped her contact lens in my mouth and was trying to get it out with her tongue. Yeah, that’s it.”
Crow: “You two go on without me… wait, that’s all wrong.”
Crow: “Hey, that was his heart blowing up!”
Joel: “Man, look at all the weed. Where are they, in Tommy Chong’s backyard?”
Crow: “Well it’s tough love, really.”
Joel: “We don’t want hillbillies with good taste, we want hillbillies that taste good!”
Joel: “Looks like the cameraman can’t find the cast.”
Servo: “It’s not that deep. It must have been filmed in Corman’s swimming pool.”
Crow: “Sucker! Oh, wait, that’s me.”
Fav. Riff from movie:
Servo: “I’d start the grill if I were you!”
Comments:
- Sampo said once he believes there’s other episodes with out-of-sequence production codes (a la episode 104). This episode could potentially be one that’s out of order. By the production number, “Attack of the giant Leeches” should follow “Being From Another Planet”, which introduced the holo-clowns. But, here Joel states he installed them “three weeks ago”. Maybe, “Being From Another Planet” was originally 403, but got postponed?
- I like that the leech is named “Patches”, and when Dr. F applies the leech to Frank, he says, ‘i’m depending on you.”
- Crow comments that the land in the short looks like the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ ride. Hmmm… I’d say it looks more like the Jungle Cruise.
- Didn’t Joel already explain to the ‘bots the appeal of serials back in Season 1?
- Holy crap, that’s some AWFUL music playing over the film’s opening credits.
- Okay, here’s my theory for why we don’t see Servo’s head in the theater. He fills his head with coffee! In Segment 2, Servo’s head is making coffee.
- I like that Liz ends up barefoot by the end of the film.
- Funny b-movie moment: The two divers rescue Liz, bring her ashore, get out of the boat, and the actors playing the divers apparently forget about Liz’s actress and let the boat drift away from the shore, and they have to get back into the water and pull the boat back to dry land. Was that really the best take they had of this scene?
- Servo’s head falls off as they leave the theater. Hope no coffee spilled out.
- I like that Kevin makes no attempt to disguise his voice as patches the Leech.
- The song “Danger to Ourselves and Others” was written by Joel and Mike. Well, fans have said they always wanted to see some kind of Joel-Mike collaboration. i guess that would be it.
Best Segment: “Danger to Myself and Others” is hilarious.
Worst Segment: Segment 2 is more about killing time than doing anything funny or creative.
Overall: A very funny episode! love it! ***1/2
