This Island Earth is a decent film, but I don't think only bad films can be effectively given the MST treatment. Most of the time, they got bad films because that's what their budget could afford. Doing it in a movie format and This Island Earth being a property of Universal, where they were...
...didn’t deserve to be mocked. So MST3KTM (whew) only proved that in fact, any film can be MSTed, if not especially well — instead of making clever reference or context jokes as usual, just randomly pretend this or that character is saying that they farted or something — but not that they...
...it. Just one line of internal closure or regret would help us feel the cost of that betrayal.
STANDOUT LINES
“Starfleet Intelligence is a joke. Those idiots don’t even know what a Ferengi looks like.” – Classic Georgiou.
“What’s that? You’ve never heard of the Discovery or the...
Not really. TO much falling in love and joking around. Surprise they didn't make a campfire and roast some s'mores. She barely killed anyone in her effort to get to Abby. She has like one scene in the hospital were she is beating on that girl that really feels like she is in revenge mode. Not...
I just went through a ridiculous amount of steps to see this page of "Totally Looks Like" when I Googled to see if Jerry Orbach was related to Victure Mature. And at 6:20 am no less. Insomnia is no joke.
We'll be switching shoes in '77. Overall, I consider TSWLM to be the best Bond film.
Something he noteworthily is pretty much never seen doing. I think in the books he was known to engage in subtle disguise techniques like oral prosthetics to change the shape of his face.
Qnion rules.

I grew up with the show and first saw it just a few years after the episode was made. It's not a "bloody obvious" joke. It can absolutely be taken more than one way. My sister and I discussed it when we were younger and she still shakes her head at it because of how she interprets the line.
You...
Oh, please, it's a joke about whose going to wear the pants in the family after they're married (to use a contemporary colloquialism from the same era as the joke was written.)
Really, fans will squabble over anything here.
...:rommie:
Hasn't he shown expertise in disguise before? Maybe not, because I can't think of any examples. But you can buy fake nipples in a joke shop. So I hear.
I don't remember any of those movies clearly enough to have an opinion, but I do remember the female M calling Bond a...
...it with tongue-in-cheek (ever!) and is assured that everyone else is stupid/made a mistake and only he is smart enough to realize it.
Sure, he "jokes" about his nitpicks, but the jokes are always directed at the perceived error in the episode, not at himself. He will occasionally make...
Well, to quote "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", the man is the head of the house, but the woman is the neck. And she can turn the head any way she wants. ;)
Unless the original writer wants to chime in, it is all open to interpretation. Being born in 1971, I can really only interpret the line through the world I grew up in.
I see people still trying to judge a 1966 line of dialog by 2025 standards.
In 1966, "temporarily at least, I am still your superior officer" was a joke about wives casting off the submissive, demure guise used to "catch" their man, and becoming "the boss" of the house once they were married.
When the Federation goes to war, it's Starfleet that fights the war. Starfleet's ships carry heavy weapons. Torpedoes have antimatter warheads, weapons of mass destruction. Sisko was able to poison an entire planet with what he had onboard.
The idea that Starfleet isn't a military is a joke.
Maybe. Maybe not. "Who Mourns for Adonias?" also touches on the results of marriage and female officers.
MCCOY: And he thinks he's the right man for her, but I'm not sure she thinks he's the right man. On the other hand, she's a woman. All woman. One day she'll find the right man and off she'll...
