I’d be curious to see what *good* things in cinema MST3K has led people to. For me, it was Akira Kurosawa. When I was younger, I was vaguely aware of the existence of Kurosawa and his films. I’m quite sure I remember watching Siskel and Ebert review ‘Ran’ on […] The alert regular who goes by “Smoothie of Great Power” suggests:
I’ve seen every episode from Season 1-10 at least once and there are many that I re-watch on a regular basis, so of course I hear the same riffs many times. Sometimes, there are just certain ones that I remember hearing […] RiffTrax’s “The Wizard of Oz” riff is out (and I thought it was hilarious). They previously did “Caasablanca” and several other movies considred “good.” What other movies considered “good” do you think might work for riffing?
Me? I gotta go with “Citizen Kane.” Stilted dialog, scenery chewing…um, sleds. It’s got it all! What’s your pick? For folks in Northeastern Pennsylvania, the Scranton Cultural Center will again present Bad Movie Thursdays with MST3K – hosted by yours truly — Thursday at 7 p.m. (Cocktails at 6.) The episode this month is 820- SPACE MUTINY. More info here. Join us, won’t we?
