Weekend Discussion Thread: What Movie Would You Like to Be In?

Alert reader David suggests:

I was watching the pre-show press conference and they were asked a question that might be fun to visit with us: what movie would you like to find yourself in? Frank immediately piped up: “Wild World of Batwoman,” to which Joel quipped “That came a little too quick, Frank.” :) Personally “Girl in Gold Boots”, for obvious reasons (Mike interestingly said the same). I’d like to sit in the back and see how long the dancers could Jerk and Pony.

I’d have to go with “Teenagers from Outer Space,” because I’m just an old chubby guy and I could go for a nap on the couch about now.

What’s your pick?

  1. “The projected Man”. I’d comfort Sheila while she’s in her underwear.

    This WDT really got me to thinking. Which MSTed movie would I like to be in? The real answer is, almost none of them. I love the show like we all do, but as a rule these movies were set in dark, dark places. I never really thought of it that way before. I mean, when you have to go to Bavaro’s house in Clash of the Moons to find a really happy place …
    But then there are the shorts. A day at the fair has to be fun, right? Till you get lost. The rodeo put on by the Junior Daredevils seemed entertaining enough, except for the animals of course. Wait, I have it! What could be happier than the world of Gumby? That is until Mom’s breasts got squared and the robot’s got beheaded. Dang! I give up.

    I think I’d also go for Angel’s Revenge. Because I need to shine shine shine shine shine shine shine my love. I think.

    I suppose The Giant Spider Invasion wouldn’t be too bad either. I’m not afraid of spiders or Volkswagens, and I could win a lot of money betting that the Packers win the Super Bowl!!!!

    I also wouldn’t mind having the death ray from Danger!! Death Ray, for purely peaceful purposes of course.

    The Giant Gila monster.

    The upside: Those awesome vintage cars, DJs who drop in out of nowhere to help your burgeoning recording career,a cute foreign girlfriend, and the drunks are funny – not at all scary, violent or panhandling like most drunks encountered in real life.

    The downside: One giant creature to avoid. Which is pretty easy as long as you keep an eye on your surroundings. If you wander into an area of the county that looks like you’re in a model set, vamoose! No problem…

    Monster A Go-Go. I wouldn’t be in any danger, because there is no monster.

    I would say master ninja because all you need to become a ninja is about 5 minutes of training. When this done you can travel around the country karate kicking people and find love interests. Finally putting on a ninja suit will make you lose pounds and look really slim.

    I’d go with Pod People, and when the predatory hunter-goons inexplicably chase the “it stinks!” guy’s (other) girlfriend (not the brunette in the red jacket with gargantuan shoulders) off the cliff, and the rest of the band soon discovers her unconscious, I’d quickly get the motorhome into a nearby town and alert the paramedics.

    I am not sure from the responses if this is meant to be a movie I am acting in, or a movie that I am a character in. So I am going with “Village of the Giants” as my answer either way.

    Well, I’ll go with my primal instincts and pick “The Horrors of Spider Island”. Who wouldn’t want to be stranded on an island with a bunch of hot, horny women cavorting in their undies? As long as I avoid the slow, crab-like spider and don’t go pole-vaulting into any giant, VERY visible webs, I’ll be fine.

    Soultaker. So I could keep Natalie from adding bubble bath and giving herself a urinary tract infection.

    Also, so I could find out where Z’dar stores his acorns.

    I’d like to be in (movie) because (joke based on riff from said movie).

    Seriously though, I wouldn’t mind being at that town/renfaire in Quest of the Delta Knights because it looks a heckuva lot better than any renfaire I’ve ever been to. Maybe also the one in Deathstalker too?

    “The Day the Earth Froze,” because in a Sampo-based economy, a man with a lot of salt is a man to be feared, and I just checked my kitchen cabinet and I DO have a lot of salt . . .

    No, no, just kidding, I’d freeze my tookus in that movie. I’d go with “Attack of the Leaches,” and hope that Yvette Vickers wasn’t the only woman in town that exuded such a languidly sensual vibe . . .

    Girls Town for me! I would definitely befriend poor defenseless Mamie. I’d also leave a few messages as Paul Anka for Serafina telling her I’m coming by any day now to take her to the chapel.

    I’d put on some clown shoes and help Kendra get out of Phase 4. Then we could go help the Fire Maidens with their burnt mime problem.

    movie to be -cast/crewed- in??? “bride of the monster”… and finally get a more -definitive- on-the-set docu of ed wood in action!!

    movie to be, like RPing/cosplaying in?? hmmm well, sad maybe i’d say, “space mutiny”… about the most “star trek” one of their scifi experiments got (acknowledging the old-school battlestar galactica i grew up with); cool bumper-cars to roam around the ship in/clobber someone else with, and i wouldn’t mind trying a play at the crew’s “oldest daughter,” lol! ;) (hey, she sure knows how to hoola-hoop, don’t she?) bet she likes takin’ a bumper-car to the hot-dog stand back near the rear-quarters, know what i’m sayin’? ;0 (“CROWWW!” “hey i’m just talkin’ ’bout the shaft…” “I KNOW YOU WERE!”)

    I’m gonna go with Village of the Giants, what’s not to like? Groovy girls in bikinis (giant and not) dancing to the Beatles impostors and eating giant roast duck…Opie spraying green smoke on his bike…very quiet law enforcement…Jim Begg. Being ruled over by giant teens doesn’t sound that bad (hey, free breast rides for everyone!), just give them a giant bong and let them chill out for a while. Just watch out for the fake giant legs!

    My other choice would be Operation Double 007. If Neil Connery can pass himself off as an international man of mystery, Gawd knows what I could do in that universe! 8-)

  26. Oh, wow, jeez…
    I guess Teenagers From Outer Space would be cool, because that Betty chick is just too freakin’ adorable. That hairdo — she was an art-punk chick 20 years before her time.
