Weekend Discussion Thread: Cage Match!

Alert regular Timmy asks:

What MSTed movie characters would you like to see fight in a cage match (monsters must fight monsters). I would like to see Gamera vs. Godzilla (because it would be a cool movie crossover) and Mitchell fight Sheriff Geronimo (Joe Don Baker fighting himself, like Graham Chapman fighting himself).

I think I’d like to see Eddie “Froggy” Deezen up against Rod Lauren from “The Crawling Hand.” I see an epic slap fight.

What’s your pick?

    “In this corner, from the movie Tormented, we have… the disembodied floating head of Vi Mason!”

    “Tom Stewart killed me! Tom Stewart killed me!”

    “Yes, yes, we know, we know. And in this corner, from the movie The Crawling Hand, we have… the Crawling Hand!”

    *hand waves to the crowd*

    (No idea what a fight like this would actually look like, but wouldn’t you want to be there to find out?)

    CABOT! CABOT! CABOT! vs Ator.

    Speaking of “Outlaw” how about having Lara take Madam Estrella from “The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies”. The insults alone would be great! Lara: “YOU DISGUSTING WORM!!!!” Estrella: YOU FEEELTHY PEEEG!!!!”

    John from the “Cheating” short vs. Marv from “High School Big Shot”. John will have Mary in his corner while Marv will have Betty in his corner. A VERY depressing cage match!

    The Creeper vs. Eegah! Two giant and scary guys facing off in an extra large cage.

    Winky and Rocky vs. Troy and Rowsdower! Trained space rangers vs. an inebriated brawler and his scrappy small town buddy.

    A large, uninhabited island in the Pacific featuring a Rubber Suit Royale: Godzilla, Gamera, Barugon, Gaos, Guiron, Zigra, Gorgo, and Krankor’s guardian!

    Finally, Creature from the Black Lagoon vs. The Moon Beast, in a 4 quadrant game zone (river/jungle;
    desert; Boggy Creek swamp- where the “legend” can surprise attack!; and a suburban tract that provides transition features to the other zones).

    A couple of undead-ish cage matches:

    1) Diana Love (aka Helene) from The Undead vs. Flight Lieutenant Lamont from Space Mutiny

    2) Tony Washington (Jon Mikl Thor) from Zombie Nightmare vs. Jerry (Ray Dennis Steckler) from The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed-Up Zombies

    Why must there always be violence???

    Instead, let’s settle in for some lip and tongue action as Valeria, minion of the Dokwon, engages Natalie, wurwilf activist, in debate.

    In case both competitors are deemed equally pleasing, the winner will be decided by Prof. E.C. Buehler, Director of Forensics, University of Kansas.

    Miles O’Keefe’s Ator from Cave Dwellers vs. Jon Mikl Thor’s (still-alive) Tony Washington from Zombie Nightmare. Long hair vs. long hair. Man-nipples vs. man-nipples. Sword vs. …uh, aluminum baseball bat. And, of course, lots of heavy metal music and hairspray sponsorships for the fight itself!

    Speaking of characters fighting, we never got to see a real confrontation between Beydool the beggar and the Lord Vultare in Quest of the Delta Knights.

    The shooting from a distance bit was just a cop-out. I want to see a real fight between those two. I mean, we never even see them go face-to-fa—OOOOoooooooooooh!

    A fake mustache and sophisticated accent cage match: Zor from Cave Dwellers vs. Lord Vultare from Quest of the Delta Knights. Not much action in this one, mostly just posturing and quip-trading.

    Extraterrestrial cage match: Trumpy from Pod People vs. the Venusian from It Conquered The World.

    Dr. Tom Anderson from It Conquered The World (Lee Van Cleef) vs. John Peter McCallister from Master Ninja I & II (Lee Van Cleef).

    And then two special features:

    1) First, a special sheriff vs. sheriff cage match – Sheriff Townsend from The Crawling Hand (Alan Hale, Jr.) vs. the Sheriff from The Giant Spider Invasion (Alan Hale, Jr.). With Manny from Angels Revenge (Alan Hale, Jr.) as special guest referee.

    2) And then the grand finale: Vera from Swamp Diamonds (Beverly Garland) vs. Marshal Rose Hood from Gunslinger (Beverly Garland). With Claire Anderson from It Conquered The World (Beverly Garland) as special guest referee.

    @ 61 – Brilliant! And after that, the hand from the Crawling Hand (actually more of an arm) vs. the severed sea monster arm from Horror of Party Beach. (“And NO SODIUM allowed – I’m looking at you, Crawling Hand!”)

    @ 66 – LOL! “Sounded like an awesome fight, I wish I could have seen it!”

    actually, my bet is that the girls stop fighting each other and bludgeon Paul Anka to death about 4 seconds after he fires up ‘I’m just a lonely boy.’ ‘where’s your drill seargent back up band now paulie? wham!’

    Continuing his series of “Peter Graves” screenplays, Crow experiments with some genre-mixing in “Peter Graves Fights Against Himself In A Cage Match!” I’m not privy to the exact details of this screenplay, but I believe it would go a little something like this:

    First, Paul Whitley from “SST Death Flight” must battle Dr. Paul Nelson from “It Conquered The World” – pretty sure the latter’s speech alone will seal the deal. (“He learned, almost too late, that man is a feeling creature… OOF! That hurt!” *punch*)

    Next, Dr. Ed Wainwright from “Beginning Of The End” battles corrupt politician Jeffrey Knight from “Parts: The Clonus Horror”. This one could go either way – while Dr. Wainwright is younger and more fit (particularly after being chased by giant grasshoppers), Knight has access to cloned body parts to keep him in the fight.

    The winners from the first two rounds will then battle it out to determine who is the all-time MST3K Peter Graves Cage Match champion!

    …and then! In a surprise move (and crossover with The Film Crew), the winner of *that* match will have to battle the lead character of “Killers From Space”, Dr. Doug Paul Martin!

    Which Peter Graves will be left standing at the end, triumphantly holding up the trophy declaring him to be the Peter Graves-iest of them all?!? Just remember, “It can’t be given; it has to be achieved!”

    I’ve been reading a lot about a Smarm off between Chance and Fargo, which is a good match. I’ll play Vince McMann and make it a Three Way Cage match by throwing in John Agar (in ANY MST3K role) against these two pretenders. His ring name would be the Smarmalator.

    My ideas for matches that have not been suggested yet:

    *Marvel vs. DC: Dave “Blast Hardcheese” Ryder (AKA Captain America) vs. either Mike from Jungle Goddess (Superman) or Capt. Churchman from Zombie Nightmare (Batman).
    *Airplane dogfight between Nick Miller (Time Chasers), Davey (San Francisco International Airport), and Cherokee Jack (Red Zone Cuba). Special guest referee: Petey Plane.
    *Hugo (Devil Doll) vs. the Evil Cymbal Monkey (Merlin’s Shop).

    I like the Fire Maidens Vs. Manos Wives gown match idea. The Manos ladies are meaner, but I think the Fire Maidens would overpower and hogtie the Manos Wives with their “unbreakable” knots. Then they’d probably tickle them. Or roast them alive.
