MST3K - 0107 - Robot Monster Part 5/10

[NuncaNvncAdhvc]

the great big helmeted ape pronounces 'humans' as you-mans . I think they use helmets so they can resist the urge to scratch their asses, sniff it and pass out

the name of this film could also be : I Ro-mo against the You-Mans

[Raithious]

If Ro-Man is a robot monster, wouldn't it be better to call him a RoMo?

[twilightwindwaker]

This is what comes from teaching ape sign language. That kind of looks like your Uncle Lou from that picture you showed us. HEY! Nowadays video games are realistic. Back then they probably had at least an N64. Why is this called Robot Monster and not Space Ape? Is their planet smaller? It's near the mall. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may caused you. They were forced to watch boring war documentaries. How could Servo kill? His arms are limp.

[cocosilk]

It's hard to watch the first as well as the KTMA seasons of the show. Josh's horrible puppetry skills along with his voice for Tom is grating on me.  Thank goodness Kevin took over when Josh left. Talk about a MUCH better upgrade!

[SpitfireBoy86]

This must have been when the writing for this show was terrible.

[cocosilk]

@SpitfireBoy86 Well, Mike was only a contributing writer in this episode and didn't become head writer on the show until later on, so whatever jokes that were halfway decent prior to that time had to come from MIke.

[bpisports]

This is the first time I've seen MST3K, and these guys aren't funny AT ALL

[twilightwindwaker]

@bpisports This isn't one of theit best ones. Try watching some with Mike Nelson instead of Joel. The creature from Boggy Creak is pretty good and Santa Claus Conquers the martians made me laugh.

[garryOBJ]

@twilightwindwaker Ya Season 3 is when it started getting real good I think..this is one of the best Season 1 episodes tho..

[bigbutterymoon]

"Don't talk like that, dear."

"I have to talk like that; I'm German."

[NorwichTeenwolf]

8:42 Dr Smith!

[UpSky2]

3:05 f More evidence that guys in gorilla suits can't tell Six from Eight Precisely.

[JohnMacnee]

8:54 What the Hell!? I didn't see that coming. And I thought Joel wasn't good. That was FANTASTIC!!!

[wrght9185]

Don't criticize Joel for forgetting the Laws of Robotics and bashing Servo. As long as that instinct remains intact, we Hu - Mans will never be destroyed by Robot Monsters.

[Heliogabby]

IMDb says the big Sister in this movie appeared in a sh*tload of TV Westerns. She's nice to look at!

[aalton]

I'm a little lost on the whole lizard fight thing.

[sherridondiabolik]

you know its a bad movie when the bubble machine gets a credit...

[GregDad100]

Yeah, there are just a few concrete facts of life; the sun sets in the west, the Beatles were a great band and Josh Weinstein was a horrible and unfunny Tom Servo ...

[Gjeorje]

I reckon this was one of those films they forced Alex from A Clockwork Orange to watch. -It`s like being forced to look at the world through somebody really stupid`s eyes.

[BTLemming]

This is funny and all, but to me, Kevin Murphy IS Tom Servo. I just can't get used to this early version of him.

[MegaAstroFan18]

Look, an entire movie that's really just a dream; those kind of movies aren't annoying at all. >_>

[TimelordR]

And to think Elmer Bernstein, acclaimed movie music composer started out with this steaming turd of a movie.

[ChaoticYak]

What's he looking through?

A glass, darkly.

[Mazdak1]

i like how the younger guy has perfect hair- they must have stocked up on hair care products and shaving equipment before the apocalypse.

[Cassavius]

8:55 Poor Tom...XD

[SmokingSpoon]

8:55 , HAHAHA!

[MajorMotionStudios]

hey, i just thought of this.

if Servo's head-bubble-thing is clear, why is it blacked out in the silhouette?

[MegaAstroFan18]

@MajorMotionStudios It's just a show, sit back and relax.

[ZoomingDakota]

@MajorMotionStudios According to Tom, it's because...physics.

[twilightwindwaker]

@MajorMotionStudios I wonder if his head is filled with something when he watches the movie.

[47tooter]

So ,,,, Why is the great guidence wearing a helmet ?

[QuikVidGuy]

I must kill you, Mr. Bond. *SMASH*

[seconds later]

Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?

You can let me kill you, Mr. Bond *SMASH*

XD

[ChaoticYak]

@QuikVidGuy That kinda reminds me of The Screaming Skull episode where Mike loses it and beats Crow over the head...although Mike, loose screw that he often is, definitely freaks out a whole lot more than Joel. :)

[Dulcimerist]

The Great Wall of Cleveland

[JackKlompus13]

Josh Weinstein was a terrible puppeteer - this is one of the many times you can see the top of his head.

[coralinefj]

Sooooo...what did Ro-man do when he came?Could you not get stock fottage of that?

[Twilightisafterlight]

That was their funniest skit ever!

[obscuritylord]

LOL at joel's response to servo saying he'll kill him.

[Wyatt19961212]

What a depressing future and I started lmao when I saw "ro-man"

[ChaoticYak]

They have Asteroids!

They must be advanced if they have Atari.

[wrestlingfan438]

"We have thrown everything we had at him, but he is imperviase." We hit him with as many logs as we could find, and it only caused serious injury.

[jansenvs1]

"Hey look, they got asteroids!"

"Well they must be pretty advanced if they have Atari."

I lol'd

[Daggie1977]

The two Radar Men From the Moon shorts were better than this garbage.

[couchfort]

This is one trippy movie. Did we fall out of one movie into another? Is this even the same kid? What the HELL is going on?

[wrght9185]

Nice reaction time, Joel!

[HarryPotter1992x]

"Comes from a planet where they evolve from apes and water coolers."

[fordieform]

LOL ZOMG funniest sketch ever

-hero

[564steph]

what the hell is going on? how did they jump from the cheery opening to this? what was the thunderbolt? I'm so confused

[FreeAbortionsForAll]

A gorilla suit with a fish bowl. I wore that same thing to my junior prom. Glad Ro-Man wasn't there. I'd have been so embarrassed.

[clawhooks]

Can anyone else see the top of someones head 8:30? its just to the right of Tom Servo.

[564steph]

yeah!

[Applemask]

Yeah, that'll be J. Elvis.

[couchfort]

In TV and film, we call that "bad framing"

[beggar1015]

Good eye. Must be the top of Josh Weinstein's head.

[ChannelBluesy]

@clawhooks yeah, that's the top of Servo's puppeteer's head. notice how the camera (er, Cambot) non-chalantly pans that out of view?

[MoonBurgle]

@clawhooks That's Josh's hair.

[howlouttonight]

@clawhooks it looks like he hardly makes an effort to hide himself there

[twilightwindwaker]

@clawhooks It must be Tom's puppeteer. So his hair is brown.

[Ayria]

Wait, wait... what happened? When was all life exterminated? Why is that guy in an ape costume with a fishbowl on his head? Where are my pants?

[rcevey2]

With all the exposition it feels like we're watching a sequel. A cheap, unauthorized sequel.
