MST3K - Favorite Moments - Escape 2000

In episode 705 we see what happens when urban renewal is taken just a little too far. In Escape 2000 (or Escape from the Bronx) a group of misfits fight a big developing company which is trying to force them to leave their homes.
Now, how exactly fighting to STAY in the Bronx could lead to the title ESCAPE 2000 - or the original "Escape from the Bronx" - is anyones guess.
Escape and/or leaving by fighting to stay where you are...?
Hmm...
Look out for Nosferatu (aka Rat-Woman), The Village People, Toblerone, an asthmatic nazi, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, bob-sleigh teams, elimination of parrots, Thrash (a reject from Zombie Nightmare?), Toblerone laughs, George Hamilton, fascist Italians, Ricky Ricardo Tourette syndrome, Alfred Hitchcock's rope, Henry Silva (for all your Silva needs), sub-contracting of heroes, trampoline accidents, a long face, weird physics, and the final battle between vaguely evil and somewhat ambiguous.
Enjoy! (Oh, and LEAVE THE BRONX!)

What does MST stand for? I thought they were the same guys as Rifftrax.

@BellaCullen325 MST = Mystery Science Theater 3000. And it is. :) Also check out Cinematic Titanic. :)

[BellaCullen325]

@auritone I will, thanks. Do you know why they changed their name?

[auritone]

@BellaCullen325 My guess would be because of copyrights and the fact that the formats are different (ie. the characters of MST are not used). They also did The Film Crew. Really funny as well.

I haven't seen the orginial movie or the full MST3K episode, so why did they have to leave The Bronx?

[auritone]

@GriffithAMPS Urban renewal - or something similar! :)

I was about to comment, "__ people did not leave the Bronx", but then I realized the video didn't even have any dislikes. MST3K for the win!

Rat woman is right!

Great editing job BTW.

"Sorry, my horns out so I'm just shooting." LMAO

[DanseDuVentre11]

"I'm a pretty good judge of people who aren't going to leave the Bronx and this guy is one of them." LMAO!

[BellaCullen325]

@auritone They did Rifftones too - I just researched them - and they have their own website. I'll check out The Film Crew, thanks.
