Weekend Discussion Thread: Your Favorite Monty Python References

Last week’s episode guide entry for episode 316- GAMERA VS. ZIGRA mentioned that there were a lot of Monty Python references. But there seems to be one in almost every show.

So it seemed like a good time to dig out this suggestion from alert and loyal regular “Mr. B(ob)”:

Favorite Monty Python references: There are tons of them. Example: “I’m not dead, I’m getting better.” during “Teenagers From Outer Space?.”

My fave is Crow’s great impression of Sir Bedevere from “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” from episode 204- CATALINA CAPER: “How do you know she is a witch?”

What’s yours?

Are You a MST3K/Cinematic Titanic/RiffTrax Web Reviewer/Blogger?

We got an email from a guy named Doug Glassman, who has embarked, on his blog, on a RiffTrax reviewing thing. His review of three shorts, “Buying Food,” “Cooking Terms” and “Drawing For Beginners: The Rectangle” is here. I particularly like the “band name” subtopic.

Anyway it got us thinking: We’re well aware that there are a lot of folks out there reviewing MST3K episodes. (For example, Lazlo has started back up, after a break, and didn’t tell me!) And who knows, there may be people reviewing Cinematic Titanic or RiffTrax too. And we probably should gather together a list of those people for your edification.

So if you’re reviewing MST3K, Cinematic Titanic or RiffTrax, throw your URL into a comment below and we’ll slap together a permanent list shortly.

(Oh, and, as always, be patient if your post doesn’t appear right away. WordPress gets nervous when comments have links. We’ll approve your post if it gets stuck.)

Updated: Gamera Set ‘Under Review’ on Amazon

We’re not sure why, but Amazon has halted sales of the “MST3K vs. Gamera” DVD set and is currently listing it as “under review.” We’re working to find out what the situation is. In the meantime, the set is still available from Shout! Factory at this link.

Update: As some people have guessed, the review notice is due to one or more persons either receiving damaged merchandise or placing some other complaint. Shout! is working to resolve the situation with Amazon.

Update Again: The situation has been resolved and Amazon is once again selling the set at this link.
