No, Santa was the commander. The Captain was the guy with the buzzed hairdo. And while Cameron Mitchell was a guest star on Bonanza, he wasn't Lorne Green who played in the Original Battlestar Galactica. In case you are mistaking them for each other.
How in the world did a movie released in 1990 end up in the public domain? I thought, in general, very, very few films created post 1964 or so have ended up in the public domain? Can you share the story behind the copyright status on this one?
I Google'd it already and found nothing other than a mention of it being released into the public domain on the film's Wikipedia entry, and this mention was listed as uncited information. I figure since Josh is doing a riff on it, and mentions it's public domain status on his video description, then he'd be my best bet for learning more about this. As somebody who's been doing a lot of copyright status and public domain status research lately, I can tellyou Google often is no help in such things
I would assume the same thing, as I can't really think of any other way it would happen. Still, this isn't a common occurrence as far as I know, and I'd like to know if there's a story behind it or anything.
please tell me i didn't go home with borgnine!
writing and delivery worthy of the original mst3k. and that's not a compliment i pay easily. nicely done.

Jokes are good but the movie is so quiet compared to your riffs.

Yeah, the levels were corrected for the final version (and the 15 minute sample).
Thanks for watching, Mr. B!

Good catch on the captain of the Southern Sun from Space Mutiny. Looks like a great Riff.

I assume the owners gave up the copyright.

The copyright owners where to embarrassed to tell anyone they paid money for this movie I expect.

Movie audio is way too low. I'll fix that before the release.
