MS­T­3­K - 612 - The Starf­ighte­rs

[nutsackmania]

I can't get the poopy suit songs out of my head. it screwed up my bowling game last night

[ihatefurrys]

That was a great scene.

[EvilPoet85]

Plane sex. lol

[grandpathong]

sort of a pseudo-invention exchange with the bbq sauce and the head things there.

[UpSky2]

57:46 Why does the 'congressman's suit coat look dandruffy and filthy???  :)

[SomeDumbKid1]

This movie is a Charlie Foxtrot of boredom!

[TheDeadhead76]

When are they going to bomb the veit cong?

[thefaboloussob]

This movie was a past way 2 discourage kids from joining the USAF. Nowadays two methods do the trick: operating a toy plane on 2 continents (the drone's in Pakistan but you're in Walla Walla), or just flying above a game when a "The Voice" contestant's done w/ the national anthem.

[TBCRProductions]

would 4:43 technically be a invention exchange?

[Bronnt]

Even the comments about how boring this movie is are boring comments.

[Lyra74]

25:21 Rule 34

[Ayria]

I was on my way to join the air force, but then I saw this 80 minute ad...

[yonskii]

I don't understand why everyone says they don't understand why this movie was made.. to me it's pretty clear, the point is that communism is bad.

[nevfangiel]

00:51:26 Looks like something's bound to happen now and... Oh. Nothing.

01:07:05 Something's brewing. Something's gonna happen, finally--oh. Nothing at all.

01:19:09 So, something? It's going to end with some sort of battle scene? Finally some action? Hell, better late than never... Oh. Nothing.

This movie is quite literally about nothing. Nothing happens ever. Ever. Nothing will ever happen ever again. The world is filled with a giant void of nothing. NOTHING. Oh god. I feel so empty...

[thefaboloussob]

No wonder this movie is in IMDb's Bottom 15. The studio that greenlighted this is full of real drogues! (as in "probe & drogue"; some pilots might get the joke.)

[thefaboloussob]

1:20:17 I don't think this seen kneads Esther Williams in a poopy suit doing something elaborate. The scene is silly enough as it is.

[thefaboloussob]

Well, there is one movie about planes that is somewhat crappier then "The Starfighters." Remember "Flyboys"?

[thefaboloussob]

1:16:54 Apparently that pilot flew 2 far & was stranded on Mars. That riff would sound more genuine if you consider pictures of Mars dating back to 1997.

[thefaboloussob]

I've watched numerous episodes, both on YouTube or DVD. But now I can see Mike's headset microphone.

[thefaboloussob]

Damn! Even w/ a bombing scene, this film remains horrendous.

[jekblom123]

1:24:05 did mike just zing crow's actor?

[TomMSTie1138]

Mike sums this movie up perfectly when he says, "That was a great scene."

[jekblom123]

so this whole movie was made just to advertise a new military jet? who was their target audience, airforce generals?

[SharkNinjaBlueStar]

SOMEONE out has to have made some Cowboy Mike's RICOCHEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTE Barbeque sauce...

[CaptEoNinja83]

Everything you DIDN'T want to know about Corn de-tassling!

[easyeasy506]

I can't figure out which chick is hotter - Miss "Crunchy Hair" 1964 or Franken- hooker

[easyeasy506]

Uh - are the actors just reading their lines from cue cards during the conversation around minute 30? Even they were too bored to memorize their lines...

[easyeasy506]

Aah - this movie has got it all! "Corn de-tassling" & planes doing the aerial mambo all set to a truly kick-ass soundtrack!

[easyeasy506]

RichtertheEternal is right on track - I can totally fall asleep to this one too at night. This episode is absolutely CLASSIC!!! MST3K rocks!!!!!

[Demelza1964]

OK that movie was excruciating but it was worth it just to hear Tom Servo's musical interlude. Kevin Murphy is one hell of a singer!

[shandelear]

'Frankenhooker!!'

[mrkrinkle72]

sigh....corn detassling

[smashfanwii]

Dunno about you, but I kinda want some o' that RICOCHEEEEEEEEEET barbecue sauce. Do I sense a missed out piece of merchandise here?

[RichterTheEternal]

Jesus, I can't tell which movie about flying in planes helps me fall asleep at night more - The Starfighters or The Skydivers. Sheesh!...For movies, with such extreme, thrill-seeking, adventurous name titles the pay off in both of these boring-ass movies is both equally disappointing,

[kakashi76767]

@RichterTheEternal try invasion of the neptune men, thats what ive been falling asleep to at night

[EmmaOnATangent]

You really can't fault a movie when it opens with a gripping ten minute scene of plane sex. . .

[caligo641]

@EmmaOnATangent

Dr. Strangelove pulled it off, after all...

[thefaboloussob]

1:26:53 U may not no this, but the next minute or 2 shows numerous shots of the same 2 plains departing.

[thefaboloussob]

1:17:08 "Oh. It's that douche. Turn around."

[thefaboloussob]

1.17:01 Where is his damn plane?!

[thefaboloussob]

1:16.37 1. Just think, if they used SFX, which I guess would be a buncha props & pyrotechnix over a area of 25 sq. mi, we'd actually c how the ♫€¶ķ he got there!

2. "Where's your plain?" "Oh, I didn't fly here. I was actually taking a walk w/ my Indonesian flag when I got lost."

[thefaboloussob]

73:59 Regis Philbin/Bryan Cranston shows chagrin.

[thefaboloussob]

1:08:53 That better be a female using technology 2 altar her voice, even if she doesn't talk about kidnapping.

[thefaboloussob]

52:38 "My wingman is also a hopeless romantic who knows 2 damn much about architecture. Thus he'll never be as awesome & legendary as me. What up? MST-five!"

[thefaboloussob]

51:01 Ah. Now the experiment takes place in Tatooine. (I wish!)

[thefaboloussob]

So this is y drones & UAVs are now poplar in aerial warfare.

[thefaboloussob]

Perhaps if I saw how Golden Globe-unworthy Bob Dornan was as a thespian, I'd become a raging liberal, too, here in California. Good thing I live in Bakersfield, California.

[thefaboloussob]

ß¾&♀! Was the script 5000 pages long? Can it fill up a whole Flash drive? Ugh; the dialogue is just hideously dull, 4 cryin' out loud!

[thefaboloussob]

Stephen Paul of the film's music department thought that the 1812 Overture or "Ode to Joy" sounded pedestrian & over8d 4 this kinda movie.

[thefaboloussob]

Yep. When I would play w/ my toy plains I'd crank up "Lawrence Welk. Good thing I grew up 2 "Top Gun" & "Platoon."

[thefaboloussob]

37:45 1. "Well, Ace, you get a 85%. U accidentally bombed Bakersfield and a portion of I-40."

2. In this bombin' test, 5 points are deducted for any $1000 property. -15 points for any causalty.

[thefaboloussob]

A film about planes w/ a score inspired by Glenn Miller seems insulting in more than 1 way.

[thefaboloussob]

19:48 Pilots who fly 2 fight always urine 4 the advantages...?

[thefaboloussob]

18:05 Well, that was a compelling scene! If this film was remade & Gene Hackman & Robert Pattinson played those 2 roles, it'd b a microscopic improvement.

[thefaboloussob]

18:01 You're a son-of-a-VIP!

[thefaboloussob]

No dislikes yet. But any future h8rs can refuel themselves!

[thefaboloussob]

This refueling scene also reminds me of B's or hummingbirds gatherin' nectar. It's still a sexual metaphor but...oh. So that's that "Byrds & B's" crap.

[thefaboloussob]

Yep. That same Bob B-1 Dornan. I was a Chapman U. student 4 a semester in the OC & I voted in my 1st election in 1996. His defeat to Loretta Sanchez was well publicized. Did I vote 4 Sanchez? Probably; I registered as a Democrat. But again, I was only 18 & knew next 2 squat about politics. & I also dropped out of Chapman; I graduated from 1 out of 4 colleges. But back 2 the movie, shall we?

[thefaboloussob]

If u can't notice the sexual innuendo in plains refuelin' & u don't find planes interesting @ awl, b prepared 2 b board outta you're æ§ζ.

[easyeasy506]

WAAAAAAY funny - every time I watch this I laugh my arse off

[CockyDoody]

The fact that these planes became infamous for crashing makes this movie kind of funny...

[easyeasy506]

You totally rock for posting this! I love the starfighters - M & TB do a great send up of this snoozerama!

[horsie890]

Times like this make me believe Mike is funnier than Joel. At least he has a pulse.

[Tareltonlives]

It's BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD!

[TomVfan]

Colonel Hunt? I think everyone in this movie is total Colonel Hunt?

[TomVfan]

@TomVfan

I really should have proof read that, i meant to say "I think everyone in ths movie is a total Colonel Hunt" I shouldnt have bothered really!

[TomVfan]

Lots of flying sequences and an easy listening jazz soundtrack, dont know why this movie wasnt a smash hit...

[Gjeorje]

....So, is this the prequel to Dr. Strangelove?

-from what I can gather George Bush Jnr is the son of senator Liberace, who wants the crusty, Hunter S. Thompson lookalike drill sergeant, (or whatever they have in the air force) to go easy on the peanut headed future president.-and yet, so much less than that happens over a very long period

"(crackle) Blue Eagle One to base- Daaa, da, da daaaaah....over".

[Steel1Cold]

Likewise, thank you for this movie.

[SpiderMwa]

Awesome! I didn't think I'd ever find this episode, thanks so much for uploading it!
