MST3k Gunslinger 03/10

[Capng123]

Is it my imagination or is that saloon actually the same set for the tavern in The Undead just with different set dressings?

[Zemaphore]

What was that "douse the fire all" about? Apart from a cheap Corman trick to get someone shot. why didn't she just say, "douse it yourself, you cunt"

[NorwichTeenwolf]

Got three bowls of porridge here, don't know what that means.

[uuuultra]

I wanna be mummified and laid next to THIS SHOW because ITS DEAD!!!

[Morzox]

"Pfft, you were a bootblack!"

Yes, and I liked it VERY MUCH.

[ChaoticYak]

Hmmm...I wonder who's supposed to be the bad guy in this movie. ...maybe that man dressed in BLACK? Subtle, Corman is not.

[verbusen]

I'll let you in a little secret.....

I'm lonesome George Gobel.

LOL, the show reached for some of it's jokes even in the 90's and 20 years later I doubt much of the audiance knows of him, but he was awesome on Hollywood Squares, had his own TV show also but that was before even my time. Look him up on youtube, he'll make you laugh.

[pretorious700]

@verbusen Awesome reference, it was 40 years old back in the 90's. Some of the ancient obscure pop references in this show still amaze me.

[Cassavius]

Crow: "Joel, is there any way I could be mummified and placed next to Stalin?"

Joel: "Sure honey..."

XD

[ChaoticYak]

@Cassavius Well, that's what I want. Mummified and placed next to Stalin.

Okay, I have to say this: there were many color pictures during this time that easily hid the make-up on their actors' faces. He looks like he's in-between shifts of doing the can-can.

[ShadesofScorpius]

"So what do we do?"

Hm - rough and tough capable woman sheriff who cleans up the town suddenly takes orders from the first strange man she meets in the bush.

So the lesson here is that women can only be in charge when there are no men around...? >.<

[pretorious700]

Marshall lady=not too bright

[Capng123]

Hey audience, here's a new character for you: he's dressed all in black, wears a black hat and rides a black horse.

Clearly he's NOT the villain in this WESTERN.

[BlackNoir]

The main character girl has a scrunchy face.

I'd hit it (if she isn't dead by now.)

[Capng123]

@BlackNoir Deceased as of 2008 (age 82)

[pretorious700]

@BlackNoir even if she were 92 in a nursing home?

[Tareltonlives]

I swear, that first scene was begging for a Blazing Saddles joke "Land...Land..Land...See Snatch....."

They try to kill each other in their first meeting. They MUST fall in love

"SHUT UP!" I love how everyone gets sick of the Mayor's flashbacks

[rommele111]

"You were a bootblack." - Servo

What's wrong with bootblacking. We like it very much!

[rcevey2]

So I guess there WAS a reason for a choreographer, tho I can't say it was a GOOD reason.

At least the time-killing dancing scenes are an improvement over time-killing walking scenes.

[tarlcabot18]

You're a man playing a woman playing a man.

[mowque]

Dignity shmignity..I want elephants! Lots of them!

[Oppledeldoc]

I LIKE Roger Corman films, and even I have problems with this one. Like the sheriff (a character you're supposed to like) getting on a moral high horse about the nightclub. Somehow Corman films and moral high horses don't go together.

[Kinemacolour]

I think this is possibly Corman's stupidest film.

[silverwheel]

@Kinemacolour

stupider than Teenage Caveman?

[ChaoticYak]

Man, I love Cambot shifting back and forth as they're all lying in coffins.

[pretorious700]

Roger Corman soundstages are unmistakeable for their unconvincingness.

[psychsike01]

"Naughty spank and naughty spank and you've been naughty in the tushy."

"Higher, girls!"

"Say what you want, Reverend, this brings in the parishoners!"

"Shuffle off to Buffalo, and stick butt out..."

This has got to be one of the greatest shows EVER. :-)

[URallangry]

MST fans help me out! I'm a tattoo junkie and I plan on getting the MST cast in portrait/collage form along with the SOL and other related stuff done soon. I will have the robots of course but I'm torn between Joel or Mike. I really don't want both of them in ink but I feel weird leaving one of them out. Anybody have suggestions? Opinions?

[MisterRiffley]

you should get the krazy krow conversion van art from master ninja...

[URallangry]

LOL! That's not a bad idea actually.

[MisterRiffley]

if i ever get a tatt, that's the one. i'm just sayin'.

[Capng123]

You could always try something more abstract, like say the classic pointing-at-the-screen silohuette encased in an orobourous made of Gypsy...

[URallangry]

True. Thanks for the suggestion.

[mskittychic79]

@URallangry Don't know if you're still considering it, being this is an old post...

If you ABSOLUTELY have to have just one or the other, I would choose Joel, the original guy, since he came up with the concept of the show and everything.. But then again I saw Joel first before I saw Mike.. Might I suggest the bots in the middle and Mike and Joel on either side?? Are you planning on including Gypsy? If you've already got the tat I'd love to see it btw

[URallangry]

@mskittychic79 Don't have it yet but will one day. It's gonna be a while...need the right artist, composition, time and big $. It will be worth it in the end. I'll let you know when it happens.

[gpfoster1966]

"Say what you want, Reverend, this brings in the parishoners."

LOL

[gpfoster1966]

Hey, the evil barkeeper is the same actress that played the witch Lydia in another Roger Corman film, The Undead. (Ep. 806) It's great to see her again!

[Capng123]

The fat man is also in the Undead I think. I know he's in Daddy-O for sure.

[gpfoster1966]

Of course... "Scroop!" Thank You, I didn't pick up on that one at all!

[jamespfp]

I find myself wondering if he's also in "Attack of the Giant Leeches" - the store owner who's wife cheat on him.

[Capng123]

He is indeed.

[pretorious700]

he is

[Kinemacolour]

Yup.  He's the buttery gangster.

[pretorious700]

also Attack of the Giant Leeches

[Tareltonlives]

The late, great Bruno VeSota.. In addition to almost every Corman film here, he was on Bonanza, lots of guest spots on other 60s TV shows, and directed some B-films of his own.

In 1976, the butter finally did him in.

[Tareltonlives]

Not as hot here, but still, WOW

[GoblinXXX]

At least I have a soul!

Yeah, sure ya do.

[OttoTorrens]

I love you Crow <3

[mst3k92]

dignity, schmignity, joel, I want elephants!

i try to put that into conversation as often as i can.

[animegrrl5k]

I love this Joel episode! Thanks for posting.

[Mandi7882]

And naughty...spank....and naughty...spank.. and you've been bad in the toushie...! LOL!!!!

[Nezbitt]

This host segment is oddly adorable.

[Tareltonlives]

@Nezbitt Only the bots would make death funny and upbeat
