Weekend Discussion Thread: Worst/Dumbest Plan by a Hero or Villain in a MSTed Movie

Alert reader Troy suggests:

What is the most ill-thought-out plan a villain/hero has come up with on MST3K?
Obviously, we can’t include any of Mike’s numerous attempts to escape the SOL. Also, this pre-supposes that the villain(s) of the film actually have a plan that doesn’t involve lumbering around, randomly killing people until they get shot/electrocuted/disappear for no reason.
My personal favorite is Q from Mighty Jack, with his evil torture box that can blind you… unless you keep your eyes closed.

I’m going to go with Bela’s plot in episode 105- THE CORPSE VANISHES. As Servo (I think) notes in a host segment, abducting a bride on her wedding day is, you know, bound to get noticed.

New Short from RiffTrax…

Will Tony ever zip up his fly? What’s taped up in the refrigerator? Tune in and find out!

The Episodes on Volume XIX Will Be…

The episodes that will be included in MST3K Volume XIX from Shout!Factory will be:
episode 107- ROBOT MONSTER (with shorts: COMMANDO CODY Parts 4 and 5)
episode 423- BRIDE OF THE MONSTER (with short: HIRED!, Part 1)
episode 818- DEVIL DOLL, and
episode 911- DEVIL FISH

Yes, it’s monsters and devils. Also, a special edition of this release will include a Gypsy figurine that will be in proportion to the Servo and Crow figurines. (Awesome.)
Info on a street date and other extras as soon as we get it.

Coming Next from RiffTrax…

…according to a post on the RiffTrax forum, they weren’t kidding in that Slant magazine piece … Coming Friday, July 30, a video-on-demand title…

Wow.
