Animated movies?
sm...@rivers.acc.uwrf.edu
The one animated motion picture I've seen that I think would work on MST
is "The Transformers - The Movie," starring the voices of Eric Idle,
Leonard Nimoy, Judd Nelson, Robert Stack, John Moschitta, and Orson Wells
in his last role before he passed away.
It's fun if you were once "into" Transformer toys, but if you're a "lay
person," it seems to be nothing more than 85 minutes of vehicles, planes,
and trucks blasting away at each other to the accompaniment of bands that
couldn't get on the "Zombie Nightmare" soundtrack.

MiSTied. Only problem: they'd never get the rights and the die-hards like
those on alt.toys.transformers would never allow it.
Que sera, sera.

Hey! I paid good money to see this, just for the "Weird Al" Yankovic
song in the middle. I thought that this was not bad, considering that
the series was in critical decl--
Um, I probably shouldn't be admitting this in public, should I?

We could also add John Candy in Wagon's East.

"Transformers: The Movie" is really just a very bad attempt at American
Anime. It had animation that was fair in parts and lousy at other points. I
own it and watched it about a million times when I was younger, all in the
beleif that it was hot stuff (If I had only know about real Anime as I do
now.). I watched "Transformers; The Movie" so much, fast forwarded to the good
parts, and freezed framed virtually every second, that I can quote lines from
it. Here goes:
Unicron: Megatron.
Megatron: Who said that?
Unicron: I am Unicron.
Megatron: Show yourself.
Unicron: I have summoned you here for a purpose.
Megatron: No one summons Megatron!
Unicron: Then it pleases me to be the first.
Megatron: State your business.
Unicron: You are to destroy the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. It is the
one thing, the only thing, that can stand in my way!
Megatron: You have nothing to fear. I have already crushed Optimus Prime
with my bear hands.
Unicron: You exxagerate.
Megatron: The point is he's dead, and the Matrix died with him!
Unicron: No, the point Megatron is that you are a fool. The Matrix
lives with Ultra Magnus on the Planet of Junk. You are to
hunt him down and destroy it for me.
Megatron: Why? What's in it for me?
Unicron: Your bargaining posture is highly dubious, but very well. I
will give you a new body and new troops to command.
Megatron: And?
Unicron: And Nothing! You belong to me now.
Megatron: I belong to nobody!
Unicron: Perhaps I misjudged you. Procede on your way to oblivion.
Megatron: No! I accept your terms! I accept!
Unicron: Excellent! Behold, Galvatron! And these shall be your
minions: Cyclonus, Sweeps, and his armada. And this shall be
your ship.
Galvatron: I shall tear open Ultra Magnus and every other Autobot until
the Matrix has been destroyed!
Unicron: Go. Destroy the Matrix.
Except for a few minor parts, I think I got most of this down exactly, and
all from memory too. And I can quote tons of other lines as well. All this is
the result of veiwing that darn tape again and again and again. It's burnt into
my cerebral cortex folks, and I can never get rid of it. Oh and feel free to
insert your comments inbetween the lines. I'm curious as to what kind of
treatment this movie would get if it ever was on MST3000.

True. What were Richard Burton's and Betty Davis' last movie roles? If
I recall, they weren't anything to write home about either.

: Gee, when both Halliwell's Film Guide and the video box for 1984
: BOTH say it was Burton's last film role I tend to take it at face

Well, actually, I must correct myself. Wagner: The Complete Epic is a
made-for-TV miniseries. <doh!> Which makes 1984 Burton's last REAL film
role. As far as Davis goes, Whales of August was no small part. Won
Ann Sothern a Best Supporting Actress nomination and Vincent Price was
in it. (:
