Last night I watched "Monster A Go-Go" - so painful!
At the (I think) second Expo-Fest-a-Rama, my ex went as the Monster A-Go-Go. Did a fairly good zombie spaceguy walk, too!

That and The Starfighters are the only times I ever considered NOT watching an episode through to the end. I applaud you for making it, Sir or Madam. :electric:

In other news:

This is the song, 'bout something or other,​
This is the line, that's mostly filler,​
He TRIIIIIIIED to kill me with a forklift!​
Huzzah!​

Can you tell which episode I just watched? :coy:

This is the song, that goes to the fight scene!
This is the fiiiiight, Rocky and Ken!
He TRIED TO KILL ME WITH A FORKLIIIIIFT...

Now the version a bunch of Msties spontaneously broke into (myself among them) when we were all bunched up waiting for a bus to take us from the lovely historic theatre in downtown Minneapolis (for the Live Show) to the hotel where the convention was going on:

This is the line, the line for the tour bus
To take us back, to the hoteeeeeeeelllll...
Don't TRY TO KILL US WITH A FORKLIIIIIIIFT...

Also notable on the bus ride (a bus full of msties is a dangerously wonderful thing, and yes, most of us were total strangers): we circled a block once when the driver got lost. So someone yelled out, "Hey, didn't we pass that billboard a couple of streets back?" To which I and my friend and several others yelled back, "It's clearly following us!"

Disc 2 includes:
  • The Original Feature

Sweet! Yes, as usual, my buddy Marty was ordering a copy. Have you watched the special features yet, Zeppo? "Hotel Torgo"...NICE title..."bad movies check in, but then they just wind up being leered at and dancing the Satanic hula with a bunch of undead hotties...and don't check out"?

I haven't actually gotten a copy yet, but it's on my 'Look for the next time I'm at Best Buy' list (they're the ONLY store around here that carries MST3K). :search:

By the by, have you found out what the unspecified bonus features are?

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been here in a long while but I did indeed purchase the MST3K vs. Gamera set, and have watched the entire set twice already!! Love it!! I had forgotten how funny those episodes were and now I am in the process of collecting more sets...I am an MST3K junkie all over again!!
