MST3K Sound Bytes!
Krankor (who maintains a very good Road
Rovers page) once had a MST3K (Mystery Science Theater 3000) page filled
with sounds. The last time I checked his page, it was down, so I decided
to put my collection up. Download the codec
if you're using Win 95. Then you can listen to my collection:
"47 Keebler elves were killed today when
a light plane plunged into their tree..." (Keebler is a snack company
whose ads involve elves.)
"Ah, Mike, you have to bring Tom..." (From
the first episode with Mike instead of Joel)
"And the crowd goes wild..."
"Another motion picture from Coleman Francis."
(Coleman Francis directed many films seen on MST3K.)
"Buckaroo Banzai goes to the nursing home."
(Buckaroo Banzai appeared in the film "Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension".
The film's finis promised a sequel a la early James Bond, however "Buckaroo
Banzai vs. the World Crime League" never came.)
Star Trek song - done by MST3K cast
Jokes about Rando Schmook, set designer for MST3K: The Movie:
"Fill your mouth with half a Kraft hot dog, put
ketchup all over your face, and then spit it out saying, 'my tongue, my
tongue'."
"First movie filmed entirely with flashlights."
"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, we are
now cruising at approximately 50 feet..."
'Hello, Hello' song by Gypsy
"He maintains an appliance. (does the 007 theme)"
"He's pirating free TV."
"Hey, it's the NBC Mystery Movie!..." (A mystery anthology whose opening title featured a guy walking in the dark with a flashlight.)
'Kim Catrall' song by Crow (Note: Catrall
not only appeared in Mannequin, she once appeared on an episode of Rugrats
as Chuckie's late mother. What does that have anything to do with MST3K?
Well, when I first
started my Rugrats MSTing page, I tried posting
quite a few messages requesting Rugrats riffs to the
RATMM news group and I got hate mail. But enough with
the anecdotes and on with the page.)
"Iowa State College, the high school after high
school."
"It's the amazing technicolor cheese wedge!"
(Technicolor Dreamcoat reference, or so I am told)
"Let's follow our hero as he heads down to Payless
shoes." (US chain of discount shoe stores)
'Useless Encyclopedia' skit
'Mac vs. PC' skit
'Normal view' song
(Quacking sounds) "Now Duck News. Here's Hugh
McQuackin."
"Quiet everyone. 'All My Children' is on."
(Soap known for star Susan Lucci's 18-nomination Daytime Emmy losing streak
before finally getting one on her 19th. Rugrats hasn't won one since the
94-95 season, BTW.)
(Movie: "Ruth...") "I farted."
"SCTV is on the air!" (A comedy skit show.)
"Stock footage away!"
"Suddenly, it's a bad Dick Van Dyke show."
(Classic '60s sitcom)
"Thank you, next!"
"The motorcycle is close captioned for the hearing
impaired."
"The new Alan Hale action figure!..."
"The spaceship is powered by coal."
(Movie: "They're invisible!") "Oh no, I don't
believe it, they were too cheap to hire villains in this movie..."
"This is a hijack. I'm taking this roller coaster
to Cuba."
"This week on WB, the Sarcastic Endocrinologist."
(WB's the network that aired Road Rovers. And an 'endocrinologist', BTW,
means someone who studies the endocrine glands. If you don't know what
these are, the glands produce stuff you might know... they're called
'hormones'.)
"Tonight on ESPN2, hayloft rope swinging!"
(One of ESPN's sister channels.)
"Yay, a dot is moving away from a semicircle,
yay!"
"You've got mail. AAAAAAHHHHH!" (AOL entry
sound when you have new mail. Also, name of a 1998 romantic comedy/drama starring Tom
Hanks and Meg Ryan.)
