Among MST’d characters, who would you most likely connect with or follow on social media?
For instance, I think Torgo might have a great Facebook page, with lots of repetitive updates (“It’ll be dark soon”), odd likes (International Satyr Society) and grainy photos – probably mostly of women who didn’t know he was taking them.
Gloria Henderson could really keep you abreast of the latest happenings in porn if you followed her on Twitter: “Hot new smut picture out today – and brother I mean hot!”
And Henry Krasker’s Linkedin page would probably be interesting: “Inventor, criminologist, metaphysician. Currently self-employed and seeking investors for my Buried Alive Coffin Alarm (patent pending). Detective Lewis endorses Krasker’s, how-you-say… methods.”
I think Derek, the sensitive teen alien from “Teenagers from Outer Space,” would have a Facebook page full of entertainingly morose poetry.
Who’s your pick?
) to help our users cope with "trolls" and other commenters whom they find annoying. Go to our
Ben Murphy’s character in “Riding with Death.”
The first (and only, I might add) character that came to mind was Beverly Garland’s character in It Conquered the World.
Blast Hardcheese- Not being too bright– he would be rocking a myspace page loaded with poorly animated gifs. His Grandma wife… she thinks having a computer is social media.
Lucinda (witch /grandma /sister), would have a rather touching array pinterest boards.
Danny (The Girl in Lover’s Lane) would be full of insights and homespun
wisdom on life (including how to deal with prostitutes) gained from traveling,
fighting, and riding the rails with Big Stupid.
Mr B Natural
I would follow David Ryder from Space Mutiny, Ken from Fugitive Alien, and the psychic girl from The Thing that Wouldn’t die on twitter
The Master, Torgo, Mr. B Natural, Crenshaw, and Paul, the Moonbeast.
I’d like to see Critter and Michelle’s MySpace page. I bet there would be lots of Critter’s songs and videos of Michelle dancing at some truck stop.
Probably would contain a blog chronicaling Critter’s struggles with PTSD as well.
Also I’d follow Carlo Lombardi’s twitter feed for tour dates and write-ups in local papers.
Wurlwilf would be absolutely fascinating to follow on Facebook.
I imagine Hugo the dummy’s Twitter would be full of laments of his ham-less life and how cold and clammy Vorelli’s hand is.
Torgo would be interesting,but since he only has one hand,it would take him a very long to type and of course,he would say the same thing over and over,too..Mitchell would get repetitive..”Got up,had a beer..drank beer,had a beer on the way to a case..of beer” and so on.
My first answer was going to be ‘Winky.’ but he would end up being just creepy. so i went with Jimmy from ‘I Accuse My Parents.’ not only would his online essays be inspirational and world changing but all the really neat-o cool stuff that he and his mom do like saving the world from giant dinosaurs would be cool to read.
I bet you’d get some pretty morose poetry out of Critter from Girl in Gold Boots too.
@1 – Sam_Casey@Turkeys?
After having a taste of showbiz, I’m sure little Gorgo would get into theater &/or movies, so I’d gladly follow him.
And Mothra, who’ll become a promoter for her song & dance troop of island natives.
Of course, Godzilla, since he’s my childhood hero (true!). I’d definitely follow Jet Jaguar & Gamera, too.
Digger Smolken, of course, so I know when his tour dates are & when new albums are coming out. Of course, his info may not be accurate, what with him being mad & all.
And finally, Zap Rowsdower! To hear about his great adventures all across Canada! Interspersed with valuable wisdom, like which are the better brands of cheap beer, and how to properly live in one’s truck.
I imagine Megaweapon would have an awesome social media presence, including a WordPress blog that I’d bookmark and check every day. Anecdotes from his time in Hollywood, updates on what he’s been up to, fan interactions, animated gifs and fan-made Youtube videos of him crushing Einstein… He’d be like a vehicular George Takei.
Also, I can see it now… @DiggerSmolken_ebooks.
I’d follow Ken from Fugitive Alien. Or maybe Ken.
Oh, wait! Can I change my answer? Ken!
I am totally going to follow Creepy Girl’s (Catalina Caper) blog, Facebook page, and Twitter account. How does she attract the guys so easily? How does she get her groovy flip hairstyle to stay in place while frolicking on the beach? What’s Don Pringle really like?
I would pick Kenny, because he doesn’t care!
I think Phantom of Krankor would have an entertaining Twitter page:
Hello once again, people of Earth. I have come to take over your puny planet. #HaHaHaHaHaHaHa!
Then again, the kids from Prince of Space would have entertaining tweets, too:
I am not afraid! I am wearing a tie! You go home!
I would like that very much.
Also, being from Albuquerque, I would appreciate reading tweets and Facebook posts from the characters in “Track of the Moon Beast”. Paul could post about the condition of the trails on Sandia Crest, so I know which ones are on fire today and thus avoid. I’m sure I would appreciate Johnny Longbow’s restaurant reviews on where to find great green chile stew. And finally, The Band That Played California Lady would give timely updates on the next concert locations. Hopefully, though, their concerts end before 9 pm, because, as even Ed Wood knew, “Albuquerque is a 9-o’clock town.”
Ortega on Tumblr. It would be a great outlet for him to express himself. Plus, imagine everything that guy sees on a daily basis! Let’s just say, it would be distinct.
I have to agree with #17, MSTie, and say Creepy Girl from Catalina Caper. Why? Because Tom Servo would be following her too, and I’d like to see the rants and other things he’d say (or sing) when he posted.
I would say that’s the true heroes are zap and Troy. I would love to hear about their exploits In fighting crime in Canada (Considering zaps truck will start). They are a natural Crime-fighting team like Batman and Robin and whoever else has a sidekick. And if the Xeox Ever started Causing trouble again they would know just how to take care of it. They could even send for the grizzled old prospector if they ran into a jam!!!
How about the Gesture Professor from “Mole People”? He’d regularly update his page with theories that don’t make a bit of sense, but are consistently entertaining.
I’d love to follow Coiley’s reign of terror as he Tweets about those who dare to wish for a world without springs. “He couldn’t commit suicide with a gun because NO SPRINGS, NO SPRINGS!”
Robert Z’Dar’s Soultaker would have one of the most active Facebook accounts ever seen.
Lisa Miller’s Plaid Fashion Tips would be worth following her alone, and Nick Miller’s Facebook page would be the ultimate place to go for chin jokes.
And finally, Kalgon from Space Mutiny, because you know the back-and-forth between him and his underlings would be priceless.
I would like to follow Dr Z. on Facebook & Twitter. You know, get updates on his Catfish army and see how the conquering the universe thing is working out. Plus he could post pictures of any new mutant fish creature he might have come up with. Also it would help him find lots of new lady friends to invite over his place for a “swim”.
The Hargroves from “The Deadly Bees”. Imagine all of the online insults!
Kenneth Morgan #24
maybe but i imagine his site would always be down…down…down… ok! don’t hit!
Gonna go with the teacher/ringleader from Angel’s Revenge – her Pinterest would cover everything from gigantic Coach purses to Israeli surplus hand grenades…
I would follow Roxy’s Father’s blog from Eeegah.
He would have all kinds of great advice to read like “Watch Out For Snakes!” How to wear black socks with corrective shoes while walking in the Desert. How to leave your credit cards in a drawer. And LET’S NOT FORGET how to shave a caveman while singing!
Also got to go with the blog from the kids from Space Chief. They could tell us about boot blacking and how they “like it very much.”
Torgo
Rosdower and Fingal on Twitter.
Jody Dvorak (Ann-Margret). Instagram. Think about it, won’t you?
I’m sure Toblerone would have a good facebook page. The guy likes to laugh and is so positive, I’m sure he’d be one of the types who would repost popular memes constantly and share how awesome he is daily.
“This muffin I just had, it was AmazING! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!”
Also,
he’d share some Italian style tips:
“You gotta wear the vest with a sleeveless shirt. Why? HAHA! Because, man! Ladies will LOVE it!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
The head from The Thing that Couldn’t Die (I’d like to think he settled down with Jan in the Pan)
Mickey from Screaming Skull-keeping us up to date on who Eric killed recently
The Angels from Angel’s Revenge-I’d like to be kept up to date on which washed up actor they killed/arrested most recently
I can “like” the band Hideous Control Now on Facebook! They’re the best!
This is a little bit of a cheat since he doesn’t appear in any movies, but I would have to follow Brain Guy on Twitter. Out of the three of them, them being Pearl, Bobo, and Brain (Brian) Guy, he was the funniest and would supply the most entertainment value out of any of the characters featured in the skits or the movies.
And personally, or IMHO as the kids say, I think Bill Corbett was the funniest of all the MSTies.
He seems to be the only person in the “Twitterverse” who uses it to entertain. Out of the two dozen people I follow on Twitter he and Neal DeGrasse Tyson have the most eagerly awaited Tweets.
Second funniest? Trace! But he doesn’t Tweet much.
Crow Forever!
I wouldn’t want to follow Arch Hall Junior, because all he’d post about are his band’s upcoming gigs and his girlfriend’s swimming prowess.
Nor would I want to follow The Master, because he’d just have links to CHILD BRIDE videos on Youtube.
Maybe the old scientist guy from UNDERSEA KINGDOM because he has a rich inner life and we can find out more about his rocket sub and how long into puberty he intends to force his son to wear a sailor suit.
Or maybe the femmie fatalley from SKYDIVERS because you just KNOW it’s full of bitchy comments about everybody else in town
TOR JOHNSON’S TWITTER FEED:
Time for go to Yucca Flats
I WOULD FOLLOW ” CORNJOB ” FROM GAMERA VS GUIRON! THE THING THIS COP MUST HAVE SEEN!
Max Keller to see what hot babe he meets next.
Lembeck to see if I can convince him to stay.
Jeeter from wild rebels he could educate us in eloquent talk and proper things,that would be too funny
Oh, so many to choose from…
Fingers O’Toole from Catalina Caper. Preferably posting lots of videos of himself falling/tripping and goofing up his investigations. In fact, I think he should get his own reality tv show! Who needs America’s Funniest Home Video’s when O’Toole’s on the case.
Voldar from Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. I feel his views on keeping the traditions of Mars at any cost would be quite inspiring.
Yes Jan in the pan would be good to follow, although I don’t know how she would type any messages. By brain power?
Rowsdower! It’ll be useless & full of info about beer.
How about Ro-Man? He cannot, but he must.
His stirring passions, his conflicts, his bubbles……all make for good social media fodder.
What about Johnny Longbow from Track of the Moonbeast? He would include a recipe for his stew…corn,green peppers…
Ilya Muromets on Facebook. He can talk about his job at the Pancake House, Little Falcon, what it’s like to have his life narrated by Mike Wallace, the Tugars and HAAAAM!
Rowsdower- his status update- “I wonder if there is beer on the sun?”
The railroad man from Last Clear Chance who would keep me thinking, “Why don’t they look?”
Jimmy from I Accuse My Parents- the crap he can come up with would keep me riveted!
And when I needed a break from all that dialog – Dong from Cave Dwellers
