Weekend Discussion Thread: What Happened Next?

Alert reader Troy suggests:

What do you think happened to MSTied movie characters as soon as the film was over?

So, in Cave Dwellers, after Ator left, I think Dong (Thong?) and the crazy old man opened up a successful business installing safety railings and personal workout rooms in neighboring medieval castles, and after The Killer Shrews, the surviving shrews somehow made their way to Australia, where nobody even noticed another incredibly toxic voracious predator on the loose.

Following the end of “Beginning of the End,” several grasshopper meat-based restaurants opened in Chicago.

You got one?

    After attending George and Helena’s wedding at the end of The Magic Sword, Sybil uses her magic powers to bring back the two princesses that were eaten by the dragon and they kick the stuffing out of their father for refusing to pay their ransom.

    Boggy Creek II –

    Boggy County Family Court. Old Man Crenshaw vs. Mother Monster, custodial rights case.
    The judge found that the best interests of The Little Creature lay with his birth mother and awarded her custody denying O. M. Crenshaw even visitation rights citing past examples of pyromania. Mr. Crenshaw’s new fiancé, Tanya, was mentioned as a stabilizing influence, but the court regarded her as more of a “man’s kind of woman” than the motherly type. There was no mention of an appeal.

    after defeating Megalon, Godzilla and Jet Jaguar opened a chain of sushi restaurants across the pacific. unfortunately health concerns arose when some of the seafood appeared to be larger than normal and uh….radioactive. after a scandalous closing, the pair went on to driving across Japan in a rockin’ van solving mysteries and generally kickin’ giant radioactive booty.

    Great topic!

    I’ve often wondered what happened to Trumpy? Did he survive the wild? Did he breed with wolves to create a race of mutant beasts that took over the world and made Tommy supreme dictator? Hmmm….

    I’ve always wondered what happened to Jimmy from “I Accuse My Parents” after being placed back in the custody of the neglectful parents who were supposedly the cause of his issues in the first place.

    Sadly, I think he continues his lying ways, and goes on to run for the state and national senate seats, winning because he is a “gifted story teller”. Will he run for president? With a promise of a hamburger sammich and french fried potatoes garnish for everyone – you bet he will. :-)

    For Gamera Vs. Guiron, Akio dies in a traffic accident while riding his bicycle with Tomoko sitting on the back. Cornjob is so filled with shame over this that he attempts to commit seppuku with his kendo sword. This fails since kendo swords are wooden, and therefore not suited for that purpose. While Tomoko survived physically, the psychological trauma drove her to break up the Beatles. As for Tom, he dealt with his grief by binging on doughnuts and expiring from heart failure as a result.

  12. Kenneth Morgan says:

    After the end of “Rocket Attack U.S.A.”, SAC is mobilized and the U.S. retaliates with a massive nuclear attack on the U.S.S.R. Russia responds with multiple warheads targeted at other major U.S. cities. All of the other nuclear states join in on the carnage. And, eventually, only roaches, Twinkies and Keith Richards are left.

    Elsewhere, the punks from “Village of the Giants” go to another town and try to start a bunch of trouble. Unfortunately for them, the cops and adults in this town are competent, so the punks are arrested and spend six months in the county lock-up.

    On a more positive note, Neil Stryker from “Stranded in Space” continues to wander Terra. He quietly inspires people to want more freedom, while evading the Perfect Order. He eventually finds a way to get home, leaving behind enough people to stage a surprisingly peaceful movement to reform the Perfect Order, stopping its more totalitarian features. Soon, even the band concerts return to the park.

    After the End of Beginning of the End (making it the End of the End?) Peter Graves is brought up on competence hearings by his infinitely more talented brother for being TOTALLY! responsible for the Grasshoppers destroying one of Chicago’s most beloved postcards—I mean buildings. Well, he finds employment as his girlfriend’s photograhic assistant in her new job at National Geographic. This career becomes even more lucrative when she lands work as the second Playboy centerfold (after you know who). Peter, however, having become infaatuated with the Geographic’s ’50s topless natives breaks up with her and subsequently secures their secrets to longevity which involves certain pinial gland extracts, which his brother is reluctant to supply, so…

    Moon Zero Two: Clementine indeed inherits her brother’s claim since they were able to prove Wally was murdered for it. Since everyone who knew the truth about Bill’s original involvement with Hubbard’s plot is either dead or would get in trouble if they talk, no one ever finds out. Instead the story they put out is the part where he was forced at gunpoint to help Hubbard. Afterwards Clementine buys Bill a new space ferry since she already owes him for the trip. Bill does find out what her hotel room is like and they begin a relationship. She sets up her own business on the moon selling less stupid looking wigs and headgear and doubles her fortune.

There she meets Josie and they plan to retrieve the diamonds their boyfriends stole. After feigning her own death, she escapes with enough of the diamonds to fence and support herself. She then discovers that she is pregnant but doesn’t know if the child is fathered by her late husband, John Ireland, Touch Connors or Peter Graves. She poses as a down-on-her-luck widowed teacher and convinces Fred MacMurray to marry her and adopt her daughter Dodie. After Steve’s mysterious death, she and the all but forgotten oldest son Mike acquire all of Steve’s aerotech patents, leaving Robbie, Chip, Ernie and Uncle Charley pennyless. She takes her cut to open a luxury Hollywood hotel named, the Beverly Garland Holiday Inn.

Now Buzz is under constant scrutiny by the councilor, Dr. Alfred Bellows. Needless to say, Mr. B causes Buzz light years of trouble!
