Favorite Movie on MST3K

[Winslow Leach]

*Pod People*

Joel: Oh, pod people got no reason to live.

Servo: Fortunately, Molly was alert in 'nam and knmows how to track a boy with his snout nosed pal.

Tommy: What can we do, Trumpy?
Servo: Well, we could put on a play in the backyard; Trumpy could play Cyrano.

Chrissy: The radio has been making some strange noises too.
Servo: Yeah, it's called "music".

Uncle Bill: You can't go now.
Ricky: Why?
Servo: I made quiche.

Uncle Bill: Better make sure all the windows are bolted.
Joel: Now... for some peach cobbler.

*Cave Dwellers*

Servo: What? Wait a minute, folks, we've got snakes growling here.

Joel: Oh, if this is another flashback, I gotta go get a sandwich or something.

Servo: This film has more pauses than a Pinter play.

Crow: Geez, Tolken couldn't follow this plot.

Joel: All we can do is pray, though we haven't thought of any gods yet.

Crow: Why is she limping?
Servo: Cause she's got an arrow in her chest.

Pod People is one of the most quotable eps:

(we see a poacher repeatedly smashing a large pod-person egg with a stick):

Crow: Who does he think he is? An L.A. cop?

Tom: Even the movie The Fog didn't have this much fog.

(a scene of the poachers wandering in the woods):

Tom: Time to start camping! You dress up as Oscar Wilde, and I'll sing Noel Coward songs!

Joel: Tom Servo, if you don't stop doing your Anthony Newley, I'm going to throw you against the wall!

Crow: He'll do it, too!

Yes. And don't forget the ballad Tom sang about Ator flying...
Not to mention the quip about things in the rear view mirror shield being larger than they actually are.

Has anybody got the new bag of ramchips? Three handfuls to the first person who can tell me what the one good thing about Ring of Terror was.

Well, if memory serves, the 'Bots couldn't think of any good thing to say about Ring of Terror, so Gypsy ended up getting the last juicy ram chip.

According to Joel, the only good thing about the movie was that it was really short!

Correct?

 

[The Count]

Correct sir...
You get the ramchips. So, movie's over then... OK, who's ready for some fan art...
Dr. F: Not so fast... You've got another episode of The Phantom Creep.
*Collective groan.
Frank: Part 3.
*Even more collective groaning.

 

[The Count]

:And on the subject of quotes...

*Santa Claus vs. The Martians.
Joel: Big Joh Hurt is Santa Claus in O Little Town of Deathlehem.
Tom: I saw Mommy killing Santa Claus underneath the mistletoe last murder!
Narrator: It was the middle of the month of Septober.
Joel: Ah, just in time for Septoberfest.
Martian: Sant'as a nice guy... Listen to this joke he just told me. What's fluffy and green...
Tom: An elf?
Martian: And you roast it on a stick?
Tom: A dead elf?
Santa: Calm down kids... There's a perfectly logical way to get out of this.
Tom: Heeeeeeelp!!
During the end credits theme song...
Tom: He'll die upon reentry.
He'll burn up in the atmosphere.
Not to mention the gang busting the singing kids' chops for spelling Santa yet singing Santy Claus instead.

 

[Winslow Leach]

Correct sir...
You get the ramchips. So, movie's over then... OK, who's ready for some fan art...
Dr. F: Not so fast... You've got another episode of The Phantom Creep.
*Collective groan.
Frank: Part 3.
*Even more collective groaning.

Yeah, that was weird how they showed the short AFTER the movie. Then Frank sings "The Chauffeur Song."

Dr. F: Oh, push the button, Judy Garland!

From Diabolik:

Music with chorus over soundtrack:

Chorus: Waa, waa, waaaaa!

Crow: Lyrics by Chachi.

Chorus: Whoa, whoa, whoooa!

Mike: Hey, it's Fonzie joining in with the "whoa whoas!"

(from the same ep, a catapult is shown):

Tom: This is what they apult their cats with.

 

[Winslow Leach]

From the Merlin ep:

Guy: I am the supreme being!

Tom: Clapton?

(the lead kid sees a waterfall in Merlin's shop)

Mike: Merlin passed out while filling the tub.

 

[The Count]

Yep... And who could forget...

*Diabolique.
Crow: A Franco-Italian coproduction... So there's gonna be lots of cheese in this thing.
Mike: It's like they did these credits in SpinArt.

*Sung...
Mike: Going down to the store.
Gonna buy me some bread.
Going down to the mail shop.
Kill my parents instead.
*With repetition by one of the bots.


*The Magic Sword.
When introducing the sainted knights' seven...
Sir Anthony of Italy.
Joel: Yo Tony!

After the ogre shows up.
Tom: Teddy Ruxpin?!? Noooo!
Tom: Hey! You guys know how hard it is to get blood out of fur?
All: Round round get-around, I get around!
Tom, as if he's gonna chunker: I do not feel...
Joel: Watch this... Gannishe!
Tom: Gannishe?
Joel: Yeah.

 

[bunsenhoneydew]

Manos, Hands of Fate in second place....and I Accuse My Parents ( "Conform, conform.") as my first choice. I also have one of the Shorts tapes and it's pretty darn good too.

From Girl in Gold Boots:

Mike (as the lead character dances): This is how you scare away a bear at your campsite, now let's try dancing!

(during a romantic scene between the film's couple):

Crow: Oooh! He slips off the babushka.
Tom: Next comes the wig.

Song lyric: Everything I touch turns to gold...
Crow: What happens when you touch gold?

From Red Zone Cuba:

Mike (referring to star/director Coleman Francis, who resembles a certain Stooge): Full Metal Curly!

Mike: Curly Howard IS The Fugitive!

Mike (as Coleman is being chased): Woo-woo-woo-woo!!

Thug: I'll give you a thousand bucks to join, and a thousand bucks when it's over.
Tom: That's at least a thousand bucks!

From Final Justice, starring Joe Don Baker:

Tom: It's dangerous for Joe Don to be on the water. Someone's bound to harpoon him!

Joe Don: You think you can take me?
Crow: To a pizza place?

Crow: Clowns. Terrifying in every country.

Crow (as Joe Don eats): His arteries are just looking at each other, shaking their heads.

Crow (during gun-battle scene): I'm telling the mob! Mob, he's shooting at me!

Crow (as Joe Don climbs a ladder): I'm scared of heights...where there's no food.

Crow: This movie is really drawing me in...to a deep well of despair.

(a scene where Joe Don's gun falls on the floor and goes off)

Tom: See Mike, that's what happened when I shot you that time and you never believed me!

From Manos:

Torgo: The Master doesn't approve of dogs or kids.
Joel: Is the Master W.C. Fields?

Joel: Manos: The Hands of Fate was filmed on location in a vacant lot.

Joel: Every frame of this movie looks like someone's last known photograph.

Joel: I can't help but wonder what the cast party was like.

From the short before the film, Hired! (pt.2)

(an old man puts his handkerchief on his head)

All Three: Aaaaaahhhhh!!!

(the old man swats at the air)

Joel: Flying elves are back!

From The Atomic Brain:

Mike: Did Prokofiev do the music for this?
Crow: Yeah, Ernie Prokofiev.

Anyway fans of MST3K, Mike, Kevin and Bill are reuniting for something called "The Film Crew," in which they will provide DVD commentaries for more bad films!! Yippppeeeeee!!!! Mike has already done commentaries on a few genre titles, but to have all three back will undoubtedly be more fun than a barrel of Torgos.
