Posted by Sampo, on September 9th, 2009 QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA — Veteran Australian actor Ray Barrett, who became a familiar face on both British and Australian television, died in a hospital Sept. 8 after falling at his home and suffering a brain hemorrhage. He was 82.
Early Twin Cities MSTies might have caught his voice work as Commander Shore and Titan on the TV series “Stingray” shown in episode K01- INVADERS FROM THE DEEP.
Here’s a Reuters obituary. Here’s the BBC report. Here’s an Australian report.
Thanks to “J/P=?” for the heads up.
Posted by Sampo, on September 9th, 2009 Cinematic Titanic’s stint at the Lakeshore Theater in Chicago is this weekend, and so naturally David Wolinsky of The Onion/AV Club/Decider wanders through a video store with Joel discussing bad movies.
Posted by Sampo, on September 5th, 2009 Use the comments in this thread to give us reports on the doings of Trace, Frank, Mary Jo and Bill at Dragon*Con in Atlanta this weekend, and to discuss those reports.
If you have photos, email them to us and if we like them we’ll post them.
Update: Coverage on CNN.com!

My question to pose to the faithful: Which shorts, despite being excellent MST3K material, are actually informative or educational? I’ve got two choices. First, “Chicken of Tomorrow”–I didn’t know eggs were so complicated. And second, “Appreciating Your Parents”–it’s got a good message and a likable protagonist. (Actually decent short runner-up nominee: “Hired! Part 2.” A good lesson about developing employees that could still be made today without the elves flying around.)
I remember in the ACEG, Paul (I think) remarked on “Keeping Clean and Neat” (I think; can you tell I’ve mislaid my ACEG?) that he liked the advice about clipping your toenails after a shower, when they’re soft and easy to clip, something that had never occurred to him.
As for me, I gotta go with “Out of this World.” I never knew there was so much to being a bread delivery man!
What short(s) would you pick?
