MST3K Reference in Futurama Movie

Posted by Sampo, on November 29th, 2007

Fans of “Futurama” know that a new direct-to-DVD movie came out this week. Fans of MST3K may not have heard that there is an MST3K-related reference right at the beginning of the film:

Torgo

The joke is that the morons at the “Box Network” who canceled them were fired for their stupidity, beaten and then ground up to make this product. The “Executive Powder” has multiple uses and is seen throughout the film.

Thanks to alert reader Trey for the tip and the image.

You can buy “Futurama: Bender’s Big Score” here..

Coming Soon: Volume 10…point two?

Posted by Sampo, on November 27th, 2007

We have learned that Rhino is set to re-release “The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Collection, Vol. 10.”

So, what happened? Apparently there was some sort of rights mix-up regarding the inclusion, in the original set, of episode 212- GODZILLA VS. MEGALON. In the new set, which Rhino has called “The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Collection, Vol. 10.2,” that disc has been replaced with a disc containing episode 402- THE GIANT GILA MONSTER.

Even more exciting–one of the features of the disk will be a short sketch featuring Joel Hodgson, Trace Beaulieu and J. Elvis Weinstein commenting on the SNAFU that led to the withdrawl and re-release.

The disc also includes an extra feature starring actor Don Sullivan (who stars in “The Giant Gila Monster”).

Tentative street date: Feb 5th.

As a reminder, the other three episodes in the set are episode 503- Swamp Diamonds (plus short: What to Do on a Date), episode 514- Teen-age Strangler (plus short: Is this Love?) and episode 810- The Giant Spider Invasion.

Rifftrax for Harry Potter 1 Now Available

Posted by Sampo, on November 27th, 2007

As the site says:

The most profitable bespectacled Potter since Henry F. and Sherman T. combined, tales of Harry’s indoctrination into Satan’s dark and unholy arts have delighted dozens of children the world over. And this, the first movie of the series, ably helmed by Chris Columbus (Monkeybone, Christmas with the Kranks, Jingle All the Way, Bicentennial Man, Mrs. Doubtfire, Nine Months, Gremlins 2: The New Batch) captures all the wonder, magic and reckless child endangerment, thanks in no small part to the scene chewing of some of Britain’s hammiest actors. Starring Daniel Radcliffe, years before he gave everyone a good long look at his Nimbus 2000, Emma Watson and some kid who makes Ron Howard look swarthy, Harry Potter and the Something of Something Else is the most fun you’ll have giving J.K. Rowling yet more of your money this year!

Mike, Kevin and Bill Dumbledore their way through a Haggrid of laughs in this, the Hogwartiest of all RiffTrax! (We have no idea what any of that means!)

Get it here.
