Brian Fowler Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 The only box set I felt compelled to buy was MST3K vs Gamera, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GodzillaPerez Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 My personal favorite episode is The Starfighters which was ranked way too low at #149. To me that is the episode that showcases the true genius of MST3K. That movie gives them NOTHING. Refueling and poopie suits, that's it and they make it hilarious. To this day when my friend Mike and I hang out, one of us will randomly sing out "Kaboom kaboom, YADADADADADA! " or "We're gonna bomb em back to the Jazz Age!" Plus it has the "Cowboy Mike’s Original Red-Hot Ricochet BBQ Sauce" host segment that is a top 5 for me (nothing and I mean nothing will beat the Rip Taylor Trio or the wedding of Tom and Crow).

To speak nothing of the United Servo Academy Men's Chorus! Teenage Caveman is one of my faves and it's ranked even lower (#159), which speaks to how wonderfully varied the entire series can be. You won't get an identical top-10 list from anyone because there's so much genius around the horn from top to bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I grew to like the non-genre films more than rubber suit monster movies, like catalina caper or Sinbad or the Lassie movie. Not to say the godzilla and gamera episodes are not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 If I had to pick a triple feature on any given night (for myself not to introduce other people to the show) it would probably TEENAGE STRANGLER, MASTER NINJA 2, and SOULTAKER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I think the "Introduce People to the Show" selection should always be Mr. B Natural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodzillaPerez Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 My personal triple feature would be The Starfighters, Mitchell and Squirm! My three to get people into the show would be Giant Spider Invasion, Hobgoblins and Attack of The The Eye Creatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Off the top of my head, i would pick a godzilla movie for newbies, since they already are familiar with the tropes of thise movies. I think my own triple feature would be a cheat, since i would rather watch more shorts (catching trouble, mr b natural, here comes the circus) than a whole picture. Otherwise, it would probably be sinbad, mitchell and santa claus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I'm happy to see Werewolf as high on the Paste Magazine list as it is. I thought I was the only one giving it that level of respect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Having an MST3K episode with Richard Lynch in it was a necessity, so WEREWOLF is essential viewing. And here's an old interview where Richard Lynch talks about taking LSD and setting himself on fire. (note: he did this while he was tripping with Don Calfa).

odessasteps Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 When i made a five minute tape to show along with a paper i wrote in grad school, i tried to go heavy on the breadth of references. Gags i rmemebr from it: "even george s kaufmann got a prize" - Junior Rodeo Daredevils "dont talk about our clown, martha" "Dag Hammerskold on the trapeze" - Here Comes the Circus also, the part from Catching Trouble when they apologize to the audience.
