That one woman tells everyone eating breakfast that Laura's dead and they get up to go see:
Joel *as woman*: Hurry! Big sale on flannel!!

Uncle Bill: It was that damned animal!
Rick: What animal??
Crow: The damned one!

This is where the fish lives.

The search scenes were the best. I can't rememeber them fully, but when they called someone's name out, the guys would be like:

...Sherrif? Chief? McCloud?

Got me every time. I'm going to have to dig this up and watch it again.

*During the "Idiot Control Now" song*

Forrester: "He's pretty good".

Frank: "Good? *mocking tone* He's the BEST."

Ahhh....so one of my favourites.

reply

"His last words were HUZZAH".

"He died as he had lived, with his mouth wide open"

and yes the whole "...McCloud" thing killed me every time too.

reply

. . . and let's not forget the question every horror movie in history has begged: "What IS it about the gates of Hell that compels people to wander into them?!" (Crow)

reply

My favorite, mostly random lines (in no particular order):

Crow: Ew! Trumpy! Gross!
Servo: He stepped in some Trumpy-Dumpy!

Crow: I think. . .I'll use my putter.

Joel: Hey it's the Iron Maiden dude.

Servo: He's moody and introspective, he's in a corner reading "Swimming to Cambodia".

Crow: He seeks him here, he seeks him there, he seeks that rasc-ule everywhere!

Servo(?): It's the house of a million foyers.

Plus the song at the end, "Clown in the Sky". Servo's part. "When the harlequin is on the beeeeeed. . .and the whiskey haze surrounds your head. . .William Holden's coming over, and he's got a fifth of. . ."

I watched this episode with my sister and a friend, and I wasn't sure if either of them were fans of the show but we about died. One of the greatest shows ever.

"Alf is back and this time it's personal!"

"With a name like Smucker's rasberry preserves, you know it's good!"

"His last words were HUZZAH!"

"All Morrissey, all the time"

"I didn't get the Lorne Green role for nothing!" -Crow

"These are kola nuts, these are un-kola nuts." -Joel

"Hear that? sounds like Norm Abrams bieng killed by a giant Chicken" -Crow

"Now we can kill some game in peace" "Do you realize what you just said?" -Ren fair guy/Joel

"What is it about the Gates of Hell that makes people wander into them?" "It's because of Smuckers Raspberry Preserves, tastes more like real fruit" -Joel/Servo


And the whole "Chief? McCloud!" thing. In my group of friends if somebody says "Chief?" you are sure to hear "McCloud!"

This was a Great MST3K!

During the neverending RV driving sequence -
Crow: "Look we paid for the van - we're gonna film it!"

Camera panning across the mountains/smoke -
Joel: "You know, this scene wasn't in the original but they restored it."
Servo: "Thank you, AMC."

Trumpy, you can do stupid things!

reply

Tommy - "Mommy?"
Rick - "Hey that sounded like Tommy."
Crow - "No it was mommy, an 'mmm' sound, like mmmanhattan, mmmimosa..."

(Random shot of the sky)
Servo- "Hi God."

Poacher - "Don't say we're gonna have problems, not now."
Crow - "We're gonna have problems, not now."

reply

I love, love, love this movie. You guys have all provided some great quotes. I'll add a couple more:

"Where is this, the Casio forest?" - Crow

"Jeez, stay away from the kid's animals, Tracy" - Joel

And of course, the whole "I've laughed with monsters/I've cried with monsters" song at the end.

reply

"we musta camped next to the data stream"

and the original lyrics in the film to that song!

my favorite one, the one that makes me laugh at inappropriate times, is

"Trumpy, you can do stupid things!"

reply

The Hearts of Space jokes during the space scenes had me in stitches, such as "and now, John Tesh's Music for a Calm Firestorm" or something, and the other pretentious titles. Kevin Murphy said in the Amazing Colossal Episode Guide that the Hearts of Space people liked the jokes and sent them several CDs of New Age music (or as Kevin called it, music to drowse off by).

I liked when the kid was doing a terrible job of playing Simon and Crow says, "You stink!"

Also:

When the weird sequence with bad stop-motion animation starts: "We're in a Gumby cartoon!"

After the scene, in a truck:

Joel, imitating one of the guys: "Man, that last scene was goofy! Sure glad we weren't in it!"




Always be yourself, and wave your freak flag high. -TV's Frank

Every time I watch, "My baby!" at the beginning cracks me up. MST3K rocks!

"Holy Jesus?! What are these goddamn animals?"
-Raoul Duke, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

reply

i was laughing all the time, but

"Hello? Remember us, the audience? Can we see please?"

"Hi, God"

and "His last words were HUZZAH" had me on the floor :)
