\nBetween this movie and The Creeping Terror alone you\u2019ve got some seriously whacked views of women. Totally inappropriate but a surprisingly common theme here.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nColossus Prime added:<\/p>\n
As amusing as that would be as a weekend discussion thread, in my mind it starts and ends with Project Moonbase. They give us an incredibly accomplished female astronaut who is surrounded by men that constantly belittle her and treat her like a housewife\/secretary.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think that the attitude toward women in MSTied movies would be an interesting topic, though I must say that the worst, hands down, would have to be Hobgoblins. Project Moonbase has the excuse of merely magnifying the prevalent attitude toward women at the time\u2026Hobgoblins has no excuse.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So what are the \u201cmost debased view of women in an MST3K film”?<\/p>\n
Without thinking too hard, there’s a moment in “Commando Cody” where they’re getting on the rocketship and Cody says to the woman: “I still say this is no trip for a woman” and she replies “You’ll be glad to have somebody along who can cook your meals!”<\/p>\n
