The ep also benefits from an incredibly stoopid movie.<br \/>\n\u2022 This episode was made available on April 1, 2022 to Kickstarter backers and on May 7, 2022 to Gizmoplex users.<br \/>\n\u2022 The earlier Kickstarter version did not include the credits for the show or a stinger. Other than that, the differences between the two versions are trivial. Both shows contained paid promotional content, promoting various companies that had sponsored the Kickstarter.<br \/>\n\u2022 This episode marks the first appearance of Emily Marsh as Emily Conner. It also includes the first appearance of Baron Vaughn as Dr. Kabahl, and I admit he comes off better than he did the first time I watched this ep.<br \/>\n\u2022 As several people noted in the comments for the previous entry, this season the pace of the theater riffs has been noticeably slowed down and I have not seen anybody complain about it. The failure to let the riffs &#8220;breathe&#8221; was definitely the most popular complaint about seasons 11 and 12.<br \/>\n\u2022 I&#8217;m getting a little worried about Kinga and Max. Is her saying &#8220;shut up, Max&#8221; and him looking crestfallen all they&#8217;re going to do?<br \/>\n\u2022 There are, I think, a number of video game references. I&#8217;m not sure, because I&#8217;m not a gamer, so shoom, right over my head.<br \/>\n\u2022 Stinger: Our hero gets spanked.<br \/>\n\u2022 Callback: &#8220;He&#8217;s pretty nice.&#8221; (Mac and Me); &#8220;Blast Hardcheese!&#8221; (Space Mutiny); &#8220;BANG!&#8221; (Cry Wilderness); &#8220;Say, Miss Interocitor!&#8221; (This Island Earth) not to mention old favorites &#8220;I&#8217;m not touching you&#8221; and &#8220;You look, I&#8217;m bitter.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2022 Fave riff: &#8220;So, wait: the spanking line worked?&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2022 Honorable mention: &#8220;The redeeming line we needed.&#8221; and &#8220;Ooteenee!&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/?p=33337\">Episode guide: 1303- BEYOND ATLANTIS<\/a><a name=\"33337\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><small>Last modified on 2023-04-20 17:16:46 GMT. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/?p=33337#comments\">23 comments<\/a>. <a href=\"#top\">Top<\/a>. <\/small><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-33356\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-1536x861.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303-400x224.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1303.jpg 1677w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Movie<\/strong> (1973): A sketchy gang of fortune hunters join forces to travel to an exotic island in search of a cache of pearls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Host:<\/strong> Emily.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening: <\/strong>Emily&#8217;s bots try ASMR but GPC2 is not helping.<br \/>\nKinga and Max admire the new &#8220;Simulator of Love,&#8221; built by lonely Gizmonic Institute worker Emily Connor.

In addition to Emily, there are new versions of the bots, Crow (Kelsey Ann Brady; the first female in that role), Conor McGiffin as Tom Servo and Yvonne Freese as GPC.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 What do I think? Well, overall, it&#8217;s too early to be sure. My first impression is that Emily seems the most natural, both in the theater and in the host segments. Kelsey Ann seems a little nervous but that may fade as we go on. I&#8217;m not ready to write the second cast off.\u00a0 I&#8217;d give the episode a B-plus (they get the plus for how wracked with nerves they had to be).<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 I used to regularly mention LOTR references when they did them and it&#8217;s nice to see they&#8217;re still doing it (although LOTR is no longer the boutique reference it once was).<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0<strong>Stinger:<\/strong> &#8220;What happened?&#8221; &#8220;Some mother crabber set a trap.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 <strong>Callbacks:<\/strong> &#8220;Can&#8217;t we get beyond Atlantis?&#8221; (Laserblast)<br \/>\n&#8220;BANG!&#8221; (Cry Wilderness) &#8220;Hikeeba!&#8221; &#8220;That was a lot of money back now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 <strong>Fave riff:<\/strong> &#8220;Early Venmo was sweaty.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 <strong>Honorable mention:<\/strong> &#8220;I think the horn speaks for all of us.&#8221; Also: &#8220;Island Tinder&#8221; and &#8220;Sleazebags, assemble!&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/?p=33378\">Episode guide: 1304- MUNCHIE<\/a><a name=\"33378\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><small>Last modified on 2023-04-27 17:18:31 GMT. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/?p=33378#comments\">26 comments<\/a>. <a href=\"#top\">Top<\/a>. <\/small><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304-300x170.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-33379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304-150x85.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304-400x226.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.mst3kinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1304.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Movie<\/strong> (1992): A daydreaming youngster acquires a mischievous creature who wants to be his friend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Host:<\/strong> Jonah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening: <\/strong>The Mads are thrilled that Dr. Kabahl&#8217;s plan is working.

It may be a good current example of what longtime fans have learned over the years: when a movie is an intended comedy, the episode can be difficult. It&#8217;s not impossible but there&#8217;s an extra degree of diffuculty. And I think we saw that here. There were some really funny riffs but they were a bit sparse. <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The character up there with Ardy is being voiced by the Man Himself, Ivan Askwith.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 This episode debuted on May 27, 2022.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Gage recites Galadriel&#8217;s famous speech.

It&#8217;s no classic, of course, but it had a coherent plot I could actually follow, likeable characters (for a change), and actors who actually seemed to realize they were making a movie. They didn&#8217;t always succeed, but you can see them trying, which is more than you can say for, say, &#8220;Munchie.&#8221; Some very funny riffs, but they could have been a bit more plentiful. All in all, I got caught up.<\/p>\n<p>As for the host segments. it&#8217;s interesting that they mostly were direct parodies of scenes from the movie. Maybe they got caught up too.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Nice to see J.
