Weekend Discussion Thread: Your Favorite Soldier in a MSTed Movie

Happy Memorial Day weekend everybody! I want to start this post by expressing my gratitude to all the American soldiers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. But even though the holiday has a solemn basis, there’s still time in this three-day weekend for fun.

With that thought in mind, let’s turn to alert and devoted fan Paul, who has a suggestion:

With Memorial Day weekend upon us, I thought up this discussion thread idea: Favorite armed soldier characters on MST3k.
My favorite would be the army soldiers in “Beginning of the End.”
They not only engage the giant grasshoppers in combat, but they also help Peter Graves capture one for scientific study. A good deal of them die throughout,

I’d have to pick Daphne’s Army boyfriend Nick in “Hobgoblins.” He’s responsible for the great rake fight in film history.

What’s yours?

    I’ll goest with the knights from The Undead. There were only three of them yet they defended the whole kingdom. Of course, the kingdom was only 12ft by 12ft.

    RE: 28

    I think the soldiers moving the fallen tree was in “The Creeping Terror”. I am reminded of the Colonel’s helmet rank insignia, proudly painted freehand on the front of his helmet with testor’s silver model airplane paint… “OK, back on the truck…”

    How about Donald Pleasance’s faceless stormtrooper-y fellas in “Warrior of the Lost World”?

    ANY FRUIT TO DECLARE???
